Devastatingly sad to hear that Hulk Hogan has passed away. The Hulkster reinvented pro wrestling not once but twice across multiple decades, & without we would not have had the industry that inspired us growing up. I'm happy he got one last promo:
Possibly my single favorite moment in WWE history, and if the industry is ever to return to its past relevancy, provides the blueprint to accomplish that. Every developing talent –and today's main roster– needs to study Hulk Hogan's style: #SmackDown
Rest in Peace, Terry Bollea aka The Immortal Hulk Hogan 🕊️💐 To millions of little kids you were a childhood hero - myself included. In 1984, I gave you your “HULKSTER” headband back, in the locker room in Madison Square Garden - I was the lucky kid caught it when you threw it…
Why do you continue to pander to a bunch of degenerates who have made it clear they will turn on you the second you don't do exactly what they want? Marks don't like *you* —they like what you do for them. You're wasting your life & draining your soul appeasing them. #SmackDown
A significant part of my role at @WWE involves engaging w the public & responding to questions, often on live platforms. Yesterday, I was asked to comment on Hulk Hogan on live tv. Let me be clear: my stance on racism is unwavering. I do not condone it—period. If my response (or…
THIS IS THE GREATEST ENTRANCE MADE BY A HUMAN EVER. IN ANYTHING. NOT JUST PRO WRESTLING.
"Blah Blah I'm CM Punk, Blah Blah I'm from Chicago, Blah Blah I'm the Best in the World" 😴 It's time that we acknowledge that CM Punk is completely washed on the mic. #wweRaw
"I'm going to defeat you in a wrestling match" "No, I'm going to defeat *you* in a wrestling match" What happened to Vince McMahon's Sports Entertainment? 😢
An almost three hour episode of Raw less than two weeks from the second biggest PLE of the year, and *nothing* happened on the show. Just a flood of generic promos and long wrestling matches —not even a Roman Reigns appearance sparked anything. #wweRaw
The "male loneliness epidemic" would be over tomorrow if men stopped obsessing over the gym and how to game the dating apps and started learning about hygiene, dressing themselves, flirting, and foreplay.
President Trump has video-packages going as hard as WWE's 😅 I wonder if this administration has Vince McMahon advising on theatrical matters... #MAGA
And to think people thought my "the new Superman is a satire of Leftists' worldview" theory was outlandish lol. Just read how ridiculously cartoonish and unfounded this perception of the right is... In reality, MAGA is *the* working class movement –with rapidly growing…
I mean this unironically, the modern MAGA platform is: - Only MAGA lives matter - Only the next 10 years matter, eat the seed corn and leave the next generation holding the bag - Your genes dictate who you are - Doing good is for morons. Steal, rob, betray if it makes money
I hope AJ Francis is ok, but at what point does the industry wake up & accept it's not worth catering to marks? As loud as they might be in the moment, nobody cares within a couple days. High-risk isn't getting anyone over—character is. #TNASlammaversary
It's really refreshing to hear this kind of ambition —Nikki setting a high bar for herself and going after it with determination. That type of drive is infectious 🔥
