Not only does Michelle get to go into the Hall of Fame this year, but she gets to go in with triple H.

They basically just rebranded tough enough.

Garza in some lime green. I like it.

So how does the Hall of Fame work? I thought the person has to accept it. what if you tell someone live they are going into the Hall of Fame, then they turn you down

 

[Butters]

what happened to these nerds tattoos, you telling me it was all a lie?

I imagine it’s a calculated gamble because they’re not gonna do this for someone they think could turn it down. Michelle McCool being married to the undertaker is a guarantee.

Oh def she wouldn’t. But it still be hilarious to see it happen one day lmao.

I’m so happy that Los Garza are finally getting their opportunities. I remember being a fan when I was loosely watching a couple years ago wondering when they were gonna get their break. Don’t get me wrong I like the LWO too but I definitely thought Los Garza had a slightly higher ceiling of potential.

Also having a legends contract is a guaranteed acceptance

The WWE logo on the mat (that’s also blue) is so surreal, but I’m here for it. What’s funny is they don’t even have the advertising logos on this one. It’s just the WWE logo. Hopefully, it’s permanent now that both raw and smackdown have been doing it.

well they offer it to people privately. If someone says yes then they'll do the public announcements.

yeah I'm thinking canvas ads/logo are gonna be permanent. No reason not to.

So you’re telling me the reactions are faked? Man. I can’t believe something on wrestling is fake.

I think this one was done as a surprise

Wait... That song they used for the Mania hype vid... If that's the theme song that means The Weeknd isn't doing the music for the first time since Mania 35.
