Triple H On WWE Wrestlepalooza

"There was a lot of thought [into the PLE name], but it was in a brief period of time, so we sort of were under the gun," Levesque told "The Pat McAfee Show." "As soon as we heard that Indy was on the table, like they got the date open, we were in. This place is phenomenal, so that was a no brainer for us, but we moved quick on this whole thing. The whole thing came together very, very quickly. ESPN asked for the date. They wanted a mega event. We said yes. We just had to pick a name and go. Shout out to ECW. Lollapalooza was a big thing, but now we're going to take that title. I think [Wrestlepalooza] will be [a thing], probably depending on how this one goes. We'll see."

 

 

Latest WWE Premium Live Event (PLE) News - September 2025WWE's PLE schedule for 2025 has been packed with major announcements, particularly around the newly added September events. As of September 10, 2025, the focus is on two key upcoming shows: Worlds Collide on September 12 and the highly anticipated Wrestlepalooza on September 20. These events mark significant shifts in broadcasting, roster crossovers, and competitive scheduling against AEW.

 

Why September 20 Matters: This is the first main roster WWE PLE to overlap directly with an AEW "big four" event (All Out). WWE has previously countered AEW PPVs with NXT shows (e.g., NXT Battleground vs. Double or Nothing in May), but this escalates the rivalry using top talent. Reports indicate internal discussions pushed for this date to preview WWE's new ESPN partnership.

 

Broadcasting Shift to ESPNA major bombshell from August 20, 2025: WWE's PLEs are moving from Peacock to ESPN platforms earlier than planned (originally set for April 2026 with WrestleMania 42). Start Date: September 20 with Wrestlepalooza, accelerating the five-year ESPN deal by seven months.

Details: All U.S. PLEs will stream exclusively on ESPN's DTC service (unlimited plan required). Marquee events like WrestleMania, SummerSlam (both two-night), Royal Rumble, and Survivor Series will get linear TV simulcasts on ESPN channels.

Peacock's Role: Retains NXT PLEs until March 2026 and exclusive rights to four annual Saturday Night's Main Event specials (two in 2025: November and December). New main-roster programming will also stream on Peacock to offset the loss.

Global Impact: Internationally, WWE Network has merged with Netflix in most countries since January 2025 (exceptions for expiring contracts). ESPN's U.S. shift doesn't affect international streaming.

This move aligns with ESPN's launch of its enhanced DTC app on August 21, 2025, aiming to capture wrestling fans amid the streaming wars. WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque called it "a can’t-miss event to kick off our new partnership," emphasizing the "biggest Superstars" and ESPN's sports media dominance.Other Recent PLE News and RumorsPost-Clash in Paris Buzz: Following the August 31 PLE in Paris (where Roman Reigns defended against Bronson Reed), rumors suggest a potential WWE Draft update soon, which could shake up rosters ahead of Wrestlepalooza. Internal talks also point to a major PLE in China (possibly Hong Kong) in the coming years, pushed by influential WWE figures.


Additional September/October Events: WWE announced No Mercy on September 27 and Halloween Havoc on October 25, both main roster PLEs. WrestleMania 42 hospitality packages go on sale September 5.


Viewership Notes: WWE's move to Netflix for Raw has seen mixed early results (e.g., September 1 episode hit prelim lows), but SmackDown on USA Network remains strong. Analysts attribute this more to streaming habits than content quality.


Roster Highlights: John Cena's retirement tour continues with a Wrestlepalooza headline spot. AJ Lee's recent return on SmackDown (September 5) to confront Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins has fueled speculation for multi-woman title implications.

Promos Matter In Pro Wrestling

 

WWE's Karrion Kross Has Developed Into One Of World's Best Over Past Year + ; WWE Creative Offered Time To Shine; Can't Wait For The Netflix Killer Version: Media Man

Mr Kross @realKILLERkross Is A Former Media Man 'Pro Wrestler Of The Month' and 'Sports Entertainer' Of The Month winner and finalist. What some don't know is that Kross would wipe the mat with most of the world's pro wrestlers in an uncontrolled aka real- insert your own word, situation. Wrestler, fighter, MMA and master promo.

Promos In The Who Have Impressed Of Late In Addition To Kross Include: Logan Paul, LA Knight, Paul Heyman, Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Nia Jax, Tiffany Stratton, Liv Morgan, Lexis King and Sol Ruca. Promos are subjective in nature, but these days Karrions are motion picture grade in our view. Netflix Movies, Blumhouse and others surely have an eagle eye on.

Previously known as names such as:

"The White Rabbit"
"The People's Executioner"
"The Devil Of Monterrey"

The WWE Universe should wake up and know him as a man not to mess with. Ala the legendary "Macho Man" Randy Savage, "The cream always rises to the top". Cheers to the worldwide Kross Cult/Kult. So Sayeth.

Promo:

"What are you doing, Woods? What are you doing? No, no, no. Please don’t do that. Do not involve other people in our business. I don’t like that. I don’t appreciate it. Not only that, it defeats the entire purpose of everything I’m trying to do for you. I’m trying to help you stand on your own two feet. I never said, ‘Don’t ever talk to Kofi again,’ or, ‘You can’t visit him on the holidays,’ or, ‘You can never tag with him again.’ All I suggested was that you take a step away from New Day. You had I guess your own interpretation of that. Don’t turn me into the bad guy here. Kofi’s the bad guy. You, I’m suspicious of at this point because all you’re gonna do for those guys is get them severely hurt. I don’t know what you’re trying to do here. Are you trying to replace the New Day? You think these two guys are gonna be the next Big E and Kofi Kingston? No, brother. It doesn’t work that way. This is not going to help you. The only thing that’s going to help you is to learn how to stand on your own two feet and then, you come with me. If you’re not going to do that, well, next Monday, I’m gonna see you, like I always do. When I do, I’m gonna step on your head. Then I’m gonna leave you where I find you, just like I do. Because after all, you beat me once, right? Haha. Sure you did. You beat me where Kofi couldn’t. That’s the confidence we want. I’m telling you right now, that’s never gonna happen again. You understand what I’m trying to tell you? Get rid of these guys, or else. Tick tock" Karrion Kross

SURVIVOR SERIES NEWS: NXT stars debut in PPV main event angle, plus other news from annual PPV - 18th November 2012

-- NXT champion Seth Rollins (formerly Tyler Black), Dean Ambrose, and Roman Reigns debuted on WWE TV by attacking Ryback and preventing him from capturing the WWE Title in the Survivor Series PPV main event.

Rollins, Ambrose, and Reigns were identified by announcer Michael Cole as being from the NXT Developmental system. After they took out Ryback via powerbomb through the Spanish announce table, Punk pinned John Cena, who had received Shell Shock from Ryback before Ryback was taken out by the NXT trio.

-- No titles changed hands during the PPV. In the other top title match, Sheamus beat Big Show via DQ after Show pulled referee Scott Armstrong in the way of a Brogue Kick. Sheamus then delivered a massive beat down to Show using a chair, which likely sets up a World Title re-match at the TLC PPV next month.

-- In the other title matches, Antonio Cesaro retained the U.S. Title over Kofi Kingston and Eve retained the Divas Title over Kaitlyn.

-- In the top Survivor Series elimination match, Dolph Ziggler pinned Randy Orton to be the sole survivor for Team Ziggler over Team Foley. Earlier in the show, WWE teased tension between Orton and Mick Foley, playing up their historical feud from Orton's early days. Also earlier in the show, David Otunga was named as Cody Rhodes's replacement on Team Ziggler following Rhodes's injury at last week's Smackdown TV taping.

Wrestling News Flashback

Brock Lesnar vs Jon 'Bones' Jones being speculated by sports media commentators; Will WWE top brass make it happen for WrestleMania

For months there's been speculation running rampant about the potential match up of Brock Lesnar aka 'The Beast' vs Jon 'Bones' Jones.

Due to Jones recent drug testing fail it would appear that the obvious place for the match up to happen would be under the WWE umbrella, and what better event to have it take place than WrestleMania.

WWE is always looking for unique, high interest (and grossing) main event matches, and there's little doubt that this dream match would draw massive publicity, and would certainly help sell out an arena (and boost WWE Network subscriber numbers at the same time).

Would the risk of booking such a dream match be worth the potential risk and payoff? Only a few select top brass in the WWE would know, those individuals would be the likes of Vince McMahon and Triple H. Pat Patterson would possibly be in the decision making also, and could very well help book the match, should it be scripted, as all WWE matches are. Or, would the WWE just have these men fight for real? Problem is if its for real, as the WWF Brawl For All was, both men could get seriously hurt and be out of action for many months. Then again, both men would be part-times and are special attractions, so it's not like they have to be out on the road going to arena to arena, following such a bout.

There's also talk whether UFC / MMA sensation Conor McGregor may seriously look at one or more matches under the WWE banner no matter what the result from his clash with Floyd 'Money' Mayweather, who is not a stranger to the WWE ring, having previously fought and beat 'The Big Show' at WrestleMania 24.

It's certainly interesting times for the WWE / Sports Entertainment - MMA - Boxing connection.

Let's all hope that a Lesnar vs Jones and the upcoming McGregor vs Mayweather fight surpass the infamous Ali vs Inoki match from 1976.

As Bruce Buffer says, Let's get ready to rumble. Let's now cross to ringside with Mauro Ranallo for the call of the action.
