Yes I’m aware he’s a racist shitbag. The iron cross is Motörhead worship.

There’s a million things to hate HHH for, you don’t have to make poo poo up for fake internet points on a dead comedy forum.

HHH is a tryhard dweeb who doesn't think most of his ideas through all the way, like most wrestlers, but I don't think he's a bigot in the same way that the Harris twins are, or like Dick Murdoch was.

When does the difference stop being important, though? He likes showing off the symbols, has actively been part of racist poo poo. Who cares if he isn't a real Nazi in his secret heart of hearts? If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...

Lucky for HHH, his coworkers and supervisors include Vince and the literal House of Saud, so "wears an iron cross pendant" has to compete with "multiple credible accusations" and "9/11", so it's like hiding a candle near a campfire.

Not to mention Asuka's Nazi clown costume from her pre-WWE days.

Most people in America don't really know what they believe and are a crazy quilt of contradictory opinions that fall apart under like five seconds of scrutiny, and HHH seems more like that than a person with any kind of ideology or intent. But he is absolutely a moron and people can/should dunk on him for doing blackface and jobbing out Booker T, especially now that he's trying to PR himself as "the good boss" now that Vince is gone. He's the same kind of mushbrain as Vince, albeit less inclined to overtly bully his employees.

When I pushed him on whether he’d sue anyone over trademark infringement, he admitted it was possible but said he’d only take on large companies. “So kids drawing on their school books will be safe?” I asked.

“Of course!” he exclaimed. “The symbol is nothing without the people who draw it on their school books or tag it on their walls. All I hope to do is inspire people to draw the S and truly revel in its irreverence.”

The Pedigree when he would keep the arms trapped on the way down was one of the best finishers ever. Releasing the arms? Garbage, poo poo on my shoes.

Loved his AA spine buster. Liked the jumping knee, usually looked pretty good. The one where he’d smash someone’s face on his knee was bad in both concept and execution.

The face smash move was such rear end in the games. I hated just having to look at it.

It appears WWE is trying a new concept, possibly for a new show, or pre-show attraction.

Ahead of the December 15 episode of Smackdown, WWE ran two matches with "WWE Speed" logos on the side of the ring. With wrestlers from Raw, NXT and the free agent pool, WWE had matches that had a 5:00 timer on them. Details and specifics as of now are few and far between, but POP QUIZ, HOTSHOT -- we have learned a little bit.

NXT's Nathan Frazer took on WWE Raw's Bronson Reed in a very quick match that Bronson Reed won. Free Agent Cedric Alexander took on NXT's Axiom as well. We're told that Corey Graves and Kevin Patrick were on commentary, and the matches were film as if they'd be broadcasted, though we've not heard of any specific plans as of yet. Previously, NXT talent working pre-show matches was usually reserved for Main Event tapings ahead of WWE Raw.

There's no word on what happens if the matches go under 50 MPH, but hopefully Keanu Carver can get booked on the show to figure it out.

Next week's episode since it's being taped

Backstage News

- Dakota Kai and Street Profits are planned for the show


SPOILERS

- Alba & Isla are set to return in the Holiday Havoc match

- US Title Contender Tourney Semifinals SPOILERS: Kevin Owens vs. Carmelo Hayes
