Aiden English

WWE released this video of Aiden English explaining why he is so emotional. Good gimmick imo…

Why is Aiden English so emotional?: SmackDown LIVE Fallout, May 9, 2017

Aiden English explains the reasons why he cried in the ring following his loss to Tye Dillinger last week on SmackDown LIVE.


Linda McMahon

Linda McMahon was interviewed by “GV Wire” and was asked about the Vince McMahon biopic, “Pandemonium.” The original comedy screenplay portrayed Linda as a sex-crazed former stripper.

Linda jokingly said, “I’ve heard rumors of that movie and I’m not too sure that movie will ever see the light of day.”

WWE Studios has joined on and the screenplay will obviously be drastically changed.


Triple H

Triple H has been inducted into the “Boys & Girls Clubs of America Alumni Hall of Fame” or whatever.
