Mandy Rose is one of the featured acts on NXT, and she just uploaded a legarific Women’s Day photo, as seen below. NXT was once headed by Triple H, and The Game is currently the COO of WWE and he is also a veteran in the world of professional wrestling, having competed in several great matches and countless memorable moments during his time as an active in-ring competitor in the company. Triple H’s health issues in 2022 were also revealed previously.
Back in 2018 Triple H was still in charge of NXT and developing the brand in a way that fit his vision of what a pro wrestling brand should be like. For a very long time, Triple H’s vision bore fruit as NXT put on incredible matches and events for several years, often outclassing anything put out by the main roster in WWE.
Former WWE Superstar Jaxson Ryker recently spoke on the Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling podcast, where he recalled when The Game joked to him, Steve Cutler, and Wesley Blake of The Forgotten Sons that they were going to get fired by the company before revealing that they were going to get called up to the main roster.
“He just goes, ‘Hey, so listen, tonight we’re gonna just kind of write you guys off the TV.’ You could hear this deathly sigh of, ‘Oh God, we are gonna get fired.’ Then Triple H just goes, ‘It’s because you guys are going to SmackDown.’ We were all like, ‘Come on, man!’ He sorta got us but then he got us with the handshake.”
In other news, AEW President Tony Khan announced on last week’s episode of AEW Dynamite that he has purchased Ring Of Honor, which will no doubt give him access to Ring Of Honor’s entire library and rich history and also their talent.
During a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, AEW star Adam Cole discussed the level of respect he has for Triple H. Cole was one of Triple H’s top talents while a member of the NXT roster and is a former NXT Champion.
“Both Hunter and Shawn gave me this unspoken confidence,” Cole tells SI. “They put me into this next gear and gave me this championship mentality. That night, neither Hunter nor Shawn talked about the stakes, the stress, or how everyone there was counting on me. They trusted my ability that I could get on a plane that afternoon and wrestle later that night on SmackDown against one of the top stars in the industry.”
