Episode 125 Show Notes

WWE Wrestling News

  • John Cena: “ There is no one ‘Top Superstar’

    • “SmackDown, Raw, NXT, you don’t have one person you go to see. If you go to a show, you go to see eight or nine people. I don’t think there’s ever been more potential under one roof than right now. The Attitude Era was the era of universal popularity. The opening match had a definable storyline into the main event and everyone in-between had some sort of narrative. Now, we have a few loosely crafted narratives and some big storylines and a lot of matches for the sake of action. But I also believe that’s on the performers to make something out of that…I do think there’s never been more athletic talent under one roof than right now.”
