Triple H says there’s ‘five women that are great for every guy’ at the WWE PC

Posted on by Bryan Rose

Triple H has nothing but praise for women’s wrestling in WWE.

In one episode of WWE Untold, which is now streaming on Netflix, he congratulates Bianca Belair before talking to producer Shane Helms, comparing the women on the roster to the men.

“Their pacing and the understanding of the moments and not arguing about the moments is better than the f****** dudes,” he told Helms. “To be honest, when you go down to the PC, there’s f****** five women that are great for every guy. It’s like they come in and six months later they’re like f****** really good. The guys are just like starting to figure s*** out. They’re just way smarter than us.”

WWE recently held their second-ever all-women PLE, Evolution, earlier this month. During the post-show press conference, Triple H wouldn’t say whether or not the show would become an annual event as he feels the women continue to inspire people all across their programming. 

“I don’t know if it has to be a particular night for them to be inspired by the women, because I think the women do that every single Monday, Tuesday, Friday, whenever we have a PLE, wherever we’re having a Saturday Night’s Main Event. They’re role models, they’re inspiring people, they’re changing their lives. That sounds dramatic to some degree, but that is the kind of thing they do,” he said.

Other moments revealed during WWE Unreal include The Rock saying that the Final Boss is ‘the greatest heel professional wrestling has ever seen’, Steve Austin’s original role for WrestleMania 41, and WWE’s original plans for WrestleMania 41’s night one main event.

WWE Untold: Two Dudes with Attitudes to premiere in May

Posted on by Joseph Currier

A new WWE Untold episode will be arriving on Peacock and the WWE Network this May.

WWE has announced that “WWE Untold: Two Dudes with Attitudes” will premiere on Sunday, May 2. The documentary, which will be made available on Peacock in the United States and the WWE Network everywhere else, is focused on Shawn Michaels & Diesel’s partnership from the 1990s.

“This new documentary takes WWE fans back to the Dudes’ formation in 1993, when Michaels saw something in a young Kevin Nash that not many others could see. With one phone call, both of their lives would change forever, as Nash risked everything to leave WCW and enter WWE as The Heartbreak Kid’s imposing bodyguard, Diesel. What followed was a meteoric rise to the top, a bit of hellraising and a lifelong friendship,” WWE wrote.

“Michaels and Nash sit down to reveal how their time together included not only lessons for the squared circle, but for life outside the ring as well. The episode will also feature interviews with WWE Executive Director Bruce Prichard and author David Shoemaker, who share their insights on Diesel and HBK’s dominant run in the ’90s.”

Michaels & Diesel held the WWF Tag Team titles together twice. They also faced off against each other for the WWF Championship at WrestleMania XI in 1995.

One week before the Michaels & Diesel Untold episode premieres, a new edition of WWE 24 will make its debut. WWE 24: The Miz will premiere on Peacock and the WWE Network this Sunday (April 25).

A new episode of WWE Untold is coming to the WWE Network next weekend.

WWE Network News reported today that the Untold episode will premiere on Sunday, May 3. It will be focused on the rise of Triple H and his feud with Mick Foley.

Here’s the brief description for the episode: “At the dawn of the new millennium, a pair of brutal bouts against Cactus Jack and a game-changing interview propelled Triple H to the top of WWE. He, along with Mick Foley and others, look back at the untold stories behind the rise of The Game.”

Dennis Rodman WWE Untold episode to premiere later this month

Posted on by Joseph Currier

Basketball Hall of Famer and occasional professional wrestling personality Dennis Rodman will be featured on a new episode of WWE Untold later this month.

The Rodman episode of the documentary-style series will premiere on the WWE Network at 10 a.m. Eastern time on Sunday, March 22. It will cover Rodman & Hollywood Hogan’s match against Karl Malone & DDP from WCW Bash at the Beach 1998.

WWE.com wrote about the Untold episode:

NBA Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman will discuss his headline-making foray into sports-entertainment on the next episode of the WWE Network original series WWE Untold.

Rodman piqued the curiosity of sports fans worldwide in the late 1990s when he entered the WCW ring as a member of the New World Order. Although Rodman made multiple appearances over a two-year span, perhaps none transfixed onlookers more than WCW Bash at the Beach 1998, where he teamed with nWo leader Hollywood Hogan to battle Diamond Dallas Page and another basketball luminary, Karl Malone, mere months after Rodman’s Chicago Bulls defeated Malone’s Utah Jazz in that year’s NBA Finals.

Now, for the first time ever, Rodman will tell his version of events, providing never-before-heard details about that marquee match and much more.

WWE wrote that the show will also include new interviews with Hogan, DDP, and Eric Bischoff.

The most recent new episode of Untold was 36 minutes long and focused on Rey Mysterio, his Royal Rumble win from 2006, and his friendship with Eddie Guerrero.
