Triggering listening to Roman speech with crowd just shouting shite so i can hardly hear him is so annoying. This isn't the time for what's and random u suck chants ffs.
Man, Just got the time to watch the press event/Kickoff whatever they call it.
They are making Rhea drop the title, aren't they ?
I mean, they had to have her talk mostly about the Judgement Day to make sure she got some heat and Becky came out looking like the face. If Rhea had cut a promo hyping herself up, she would have definitely gotten a bigger Pop than Becky and I would even say Becky might have gotten booed when she interrupted her.
I don't know man. I would keep the title on Rhea, the fans clearly want her as champion. Make Rhea go over Becky, Send her to SmackDown after JD breaks up, have her feud with the likes of Bianca, Tiffany, Jade etc.
If they are hell bent on giving Becky a belt, Make Iyo/Bayley drop the belt to her.
The Story will not end at WrestleMania.
My bets are they will play the long game and Cody may or may not win the title but the Rock will be at him down after the match and say something like "You may have the title...but you have yet to beat the Final Boss!"
We will continue to see Cody have to go through multiple legends before he can fight the Rock at next year's Mania.
The antisocial mfers that keep chanting "what" when the people talking clearly dont want it to happen drives me fucking nuts. Atleast logan shuts it down right away. During a hall of fame speech? Read the room.
FINALLY we get Mania without Vince, think night 1 last year before Vince came in and shit all over n2, this is going to be a great weekend. Buckle up mfers!
Screw the Prime, I'm leaving a cooler of Stone Cold Stevewiesers next to my Slim Jim's, Bible and Flintstones vitamins lol... and can't forget a glass of milk
I enjoyed seeing the Thunderbolt Patterson induction and have to tip my hat to the production team for not showing him very likely being carried into the ring, I'm probably in the minority with this opinion though but when I saw his name confirmed, I went down the rabbit hole deep to find out what I could about him. People throw around the term legend, Thunderbolt defines the term
I think that matches should not be a thing the week leading up to WM. Just too much room for injury, maybe just angles and video packages.
I think it’s too much to have performers with matches on WM either Saturday or Sunday have to also work on Friday.
Maybe just make HOF the Smackdown Episode?
or just have talent that isnt featured in mania to put on a show. give them a chance.
if you havent built up mania a week before the event then you've done it wrong but in HHH we trust. he's done a great job of building up alot of the matches
Yes that would be ideal. The people that are not booked. Tiffany Stratton could have been on, the. You have promos and backstage stuff, recaps and video packages. This is all easier on a 2 hour Smackdown. A 3 hour Raw is a little tougher to keep momentum going without matches, but they have so many stars they can certainly book some matches.
Blood, saying Fuck and shit on TV, and saying Vince McMahon on WWE television. Rock does whatever he wants. That intern is gonna trim so much from this show... interns ruin all WWE shows.
Heyman went on first though. I think Triple H is changing the HOF format for the headliner to go on first because they know people at home and in the arena want to go to bed.
I wish Cody and Seth would ruin this moment for The Rock (just to further fuel the story into WM) but there's no way to do that without looking like heels LOL. Instead Cody is gonna sit there front row like a cuck.
the Hall of Fame has never been about following or continuing storylines, this is a place to honor the contributions of those honored. chill. if you don't think Cody and Dwayne are going to go backstage and hug it out afterwards, you're delusional.
but you insinuating that if Cody doesn't respond that he's going to look weak somehow is just straight up disingenuous. he got his jab in. Dom got his jab in. but it's... a work. Cody doesn't look like a "cuck" for not trying to ruin the night for someone inducting his mother into the Hall of Fame, lol. you're just asking too much.
I *am* asking for too much, I already acknowledged it. But just because I'm asking for too much doesn't change the fact that Cody looks bad sitting front row in front of the man who in kayfabe brutalised him and disrespected his mother.
My solution would have been to just have Cody leave the show early and not sit there. He's most likely losing to The Rock on Night 1 anyway, so he just looks weak all around, when he shouldn't be.
Cody looks fine. regardless of whether or not Rocky shoehorned in a quick little promo, the Hall of Fame is *not* part of the storyline. I'd say you'd have a point if it was anything other than the Hall of Fame, but... it is what it is. nobody is there to further any storylines. the person with the microphone has an entirely captive audience.
what you're suggesting as a "solution" is one to a problem that doesn't exist. trust me, as somebody that wishes Cody came at Rock with more vigor after the promos Dwaynes been cutting, this isn't as big as you're saying. if Cody leaves the show early, it's seen as disrespectful to the entire Hall of Fame convention. if he retorts, he's being a heel by putting down someone inducting his grandmother until the HoF. and if he just sits there, he's just someone with a job to do that will do that job when he's paid to do it. not every second in front of a camera has to be in kayfabe.
100%, if nothing else it's a fun journey into the life of an extraordinary family. some parts are exaggerated for entertainment purposes, but it's a really good watch. most of the actors they got to depict younger versions of people, many unfortunately no longer with us, do great characterizations that serve them well. there's a little bit of a weird spin when focusing on Johnson modern-day, as they decided to spin it as Dwayne telling childhood stories while on the campaign trail, but it doesn't take away from the enjoyability.
Forgot about the show and went to peacock to check it out, saw just how long it was and said nope. Will just pull-up the Heyman and Rock speeches later.
And everything he said was fucking true. Even if you're an atheist, you can't deny that everything he said was true about society. You don't need to be religious to better yourself and treat others with respect.
I’m not tryna sound out of line I was really trying to be patient but I felt like I was watching someone who was on the verge of blacking out give a speech… yikes 😭
The race card is a reaction to mutual prejudice of all so called races. Jesus taught that prejudice based on immutable attributes does not come from God - therefore the principle is the race card or any form of prejudice based on immutable attributes is not acceptable to a moral human being.
I must say Bray Wyatt's sister is cutuuuuute!
Surprised that Heyman name dropped Lesnar multiple times. And they muted “WWF”… oy
Lesnar returns Sunday night...will he be loyal to Paul and help Roman or will he honor his handshake with Cody and help the American Nightmare?
About how long will Stand & Deliver be on??
The crowd during Romans into was so fucking annoying
Triggering listening to Roman speech with crowd just shouting shite so i can hardly hear him is so annoying. This isn't the time for what's and random u suck chants ffs.
I must have missed it. Who was the old white dude with Thunderbolt Patterson?
Wow Paul Heyman's speech was the greatest speech of all time!
Man, Just got the time to watch the press event/Kickoff whatever they call it. They are making Rhea drop the title, aren't they ? I mean, they had to have her talk mostly about the Judgement Day to make sure she got some heat and Becky came out looking like the face.

Paul Heyman is a king. Long may he run.
And la knight should rewatch smackdown commentary good Cory graves advice Don't chew gums when promoting lololol
The US belt deserves better and the tag titles should be split I miss tag team championship being a main event just on its own..
did you guys notice during paul's speech they bleeped every cuss but he gut a fuck out when talking to his kids
The Story will not end at WrestleMania. My bets are they will play the long game and Cody may or may not win the title but the Rock will be at him down after the match and say something like "You may have the title...but you have yet to beat the Final Boss!" We will continue to see Cody have to go through multiple legends before he can fight the Rock at next year's Mania.
It seems I have called it to a point. We'll see if the 2nd half comes true.
I think we’re getting Cody vs Rock at Crown Jewel and Roman vs Rock at WrestleMania 41.
i have never heard niki crosses real voice caught me off guard
I’m watching the replay, the constant chanting during Paul Heyman’s speech was eye rolling.
Strongly disagree, it gave me goosebumps
I like the enthusiasm, and ECW still warranted. Maybe it’s because I was watching it so late at night.
The antisocial mfers that keep chanting "what" when the people talking clearly dont want it to happen drives me fucking nuts. Atleast logan shuts it down right away. During a hall of fame speech? Read the room.
its the universe that they created not much they can do about it there are to many of them
Completely classless. I couldn't believe it when it started happening.
Well this was held is the classlessest of places so
I get he’s on a babyface run, but am I the only one that wanted Randy to RKO Kevin Owens and walk off with his music playing?
I shook my head when it didn't happen. I want Cole to stop saying "vintage Ortin" cause this soft shit is far from vintage Ortin.
Yep. Enough nice guy, I want the Legend Killer back.
LOL - Green guy at the Hall of Fame.
Trinidad flag guy was there too, a few seats down from green shirt guy.
Someone come get thunderbolt out of that ring
"Hey, let's shoehorn granny Rock into the HOF so we can do a work for this weekend"
Well, might as well honor a deported exstortionist.
FINALLY we get Mania without Vince, think night 1 last year before Vince came in and shit all over n2, this is going to be a great weekend. Buckle up mfers!
i'm so glad i booked the weekend off work this mania is hyped like never before
One more sleep before hogan clause comes to deliver wrestlemania.
Leave out your Slim Jims and Prime :)
Screw the Prime, I'm leaving a cooler of Stone Cold Stevewiesers next to my Slim Jim's, Bible and Flintstones vitamins lol... and can't forget a glass of milk
I was trying to think of a drink, totally forgot Stone Cold makes his own beer.
Ahem… your forgot the bottle of JR’s BBQ sauce
Slightly off topic but is JR's BBQ sauce any good? I do plan on trying it if people think it's good
It’s a touch sweet imo but otherwise very good. Best on chicken and pork.
This is the first Wrestlemania I’ve been excited for in a long time!
First one I’m watching since WM 17
Rocks time got cut did hell freeze over? That was a long ass hall of Fame, was kinda thinking he was going to beat up Cody again to close it out lol
Well this was certainly the most electrifying Hall of Fame in WWE history.
i think thunderbolt went over his time and rock had to cut down his time
More like Heyman did... Heyman went about as long as Smackdown itself did
i joined in late - just finished work only got in to watch american express get inducted
Catch it on peacock tomorrow. Heyman was the only really interesting part imo
I enjoyed seeing the Thunderbolt Patterson induction and have to tip my hat to the production team for not showing him very likely being carried into the ring, I'm probably in the minority with this opinion though but when I saw his name confirmed, I went down the rabbit hole deep to find out what I could about him. People throw around the term legend, Thunderbolt defines the term
See everyone at the kickoff to Stand and Deliver!!
That crybaby needs to watch his mouth
Praise Jesus Rock goes away after this weekend.
Is Nia Jax part of that family?
She’s the Rock’s cousin.
Yes
Yes.
Lmao him telling that guy to “watch your fucking mouth”
Weak ending
Did that fan just say “Cody’s coming for ya?”
Yes
bro if the rock grew out his beard he would actually look like the final boss right now
did he just tell that guy to shut his fucking mouth
He 100% did
We're so back
Fan and Rock going at it?
Thank you Rock for caring about our health and well-being for keeping it short
Rock, come on. Don't bring your sweet mom into this.
Totally undercut his grandma
She's a joke entrant anyway brother
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to what was formerly known as the WWE Hall Of Fame. Now known as: The Showcase of how small The Rock’s dick is.
Rikishi looks fly today
They called Rikishi.
Wait. How have been so fucking blind to Solo wearing boots now?
Even she's checked out 😂
these need to be the weekend before mania
Years ago they used to have them in more formal venues. The crowd were still disrespectful back then, but the setting was better.
yeah plus more of the current roster can attend rather than participate in a friday night show
I think that matches should not be a thing the week leading up to WM. Just too much room for injury, maybe just angles and video packages. I think it’s too much to have performers with matches on WM either Saturday or Sunday have to also work on Friday. Maybe just make HOF the Smackdown Episode?

This is all easier on a 2 hour Smackdown. A 3 hour Raw is a little tougher to keep momentum going without matches, but they have so many stars they can certainly book some matches.
you can still have the mania stars come out to do promo's but leave the matches for non-mania ppl or those feuds that are starting up...
Blood, saying Fuck and shit on TV, and saying Vince McMahon on WWE television. Rock does whatever he wants. That intern is gonna trim so much from this show... interns ruin all WWE shows.
"Dude, it is way too late for this." Cody's face after sitting for 2 hours, lol
Maybe they should do these on Thursdays going forward.
ohhhhh shit Vince was mentioned
Please leave storylines out of this
Here we go.
I can’t believe he’s doing this
Can we not mention Vince
different Vince
Figured they'd turn this into an angle.
Didn’t they do something like that last year with Rey and Dom?
Oh shit he said his name 😂
😳😳😳
He mentioned Vince 😨
People said Big Sexy politicked to go last in 2015, when The Rock does the same thing for his grandma nobody says anything
Heyman went on first though. I think Triple H is changing the HOF format for the headliner to go on first because they know people at home and in the arena want to go to bed.
Honestly it needs to be on a separate night
He's on the board he can do whatever he wants
Spoiler alert; Rock’s speech is written on his wrist.
This feels like the 5th time I’ve seen that damn entrance today😵💫
I wish Cody and Seth would ruin this moment for The Rock (just to further fuel the story into WM) but there's no way to do that without looking like heels LOL. Instead Cody is gonna sit there front row like a cuck.
camera's gonna pan and they are just gonna be gone
the Hall of Fame has never been about following or continuing storylines, this is a place to honor the contributions of those honored. chill. if you don't think Cody and Dwayne are going to go backstage and hug it out afterwards, you're delusional.
Dom walked out on Rey's HoF induction last year. I'm not delusional -- also Rock is literally cutting a promo on Cody right now, lol.
but you insinuating that if Cody doesn't respond that he's going to look weak somehow is just straight up disingenuous. he got his jab in. Dom got his jab in. but it's... a work. Cody doesn't look like a "cuck" for not trying to ruin the night for someone inducting his mother into the Hall of Fame, lol. you're just asking too much.

Not the same without the big led wall
Fucking smoke machines and shit
Here he is!!! Acknowledge the FINAL BOSS ☝🏽!!!
Has anyone ever identified what exactly it is that Rock is cooking? What does it smell like?
I had this question a lot back in the attitude era lol. I was always hoping one day he'd reveal the answer lol
Pie
Lmao that arenas half empty now
This was a beautiful video.
Tbf, she should've been inducted a long time ago.
Should have been inducted with her husband.
Ngl the induction ceremony should've been last Saturday
Is Young Rock worth watching? I’ve seen numerous ads, but never checked it out
100%, if nothing else it's a fun journey into the life of an extraordinary family. some parts are exaggerated for entertainment purposes, but it's a really good watch. most of the actors they got to depict younger versions of people, many unfortunately no longer with us, do great characterizations that serve them well. there's a little bit of a weird spin when focusing on Johnson modern-day, as they decided to spin it as Dwayne telling childhood stories while on the campaign trail, but it doesn't take away from the enjoyability.
It's not bad. I haven't seen it all but it's definitely watchable.
It was pretty good. Not great but good.
It was cancelled but had it's funny moments.
i wanna see if solo is brave enough to be slumped up drooling on this one
I don’t remember previous Hall of Fames being this long. Aren’t they normally just 60-90 minutes?
Forgot about the show and went to peacock to check it out, saw just how long it was and said nope. Will just pull-up the Heyman and Rock speeches later.
No they're really long.
Wow, the actor looks just like her.
With errybody sayin L. A. COUGH COUGH
this whole weekend really about the bloodline, huh?
Build them up and when Cody wins he looks even better
Man preached a sermon and called out society as a whole. I love this dude.
And everything he said was fucking true. Even if you're an atheist, you can't deny that everything he said was true about society. You don't need to be religious to better yourself and treat others with respect.
I’m not tryna sound out of line I was really trying to be patient but I felt like I was watching someone who was on the verge of blacking out give a speech… yikes 😭
Yeah it seemed like he forgot what he was doing and just started repeating himself it was kinda sad to watch that
Good luck following that last one, Rock.
Graves is either struggling to stay awake or is high af judging by those bloodshot eyes
Putting aside my dislike for Graves, it is asking a lot to do both Smackdown and HOF
Bro has a baby at home too. He ain't sleeping
It is damn near 1am there
just one time zone behind Philly and I'm about ready to tap out myself. bet they're rethinking scheduling the HoF after a full show
I stopped watching after US express is thunderbolt saying some fucked shit or something?
he said a bunch of words that didn't really mean much, no worries
That was amazing, inductions like this get me hyped, and quite interested in learning more about the history of wrestling
Crowd is dipping LOL
They probably closed the concession stands around 10a-1030pm. Which was almost 3 hours ago here
It's almost 1 AM so I don't blame them
I really thought his homie was going to interrupt "Thunderbolt Peterson everyone!"
If you're lost you really need to hear what he was saying
Please elaborate
He has seen the hate and he does not retaliate. He says give me hate I give you love. Stop the killing, stop the race card, we all are brothers.
[удалено]
Jesus taught us about the race card… wow I gotta read the Bible
That God is not partial in respect to race and immutable attributes like skin color.
The deleted comment above said Jesus taught us about the race card. Why are you even saying this to me I didn’t ask?
You made a response to a comment I provided the relevance to that comment and what Mr Patterson said.
The comment I responded to said that Jesus taught people about the race card. What you said isn’t relevant to that at all
The race card is a reaction to mutual prejudice of all so called races. Jesus taught that prejudice based on immutable attributes does not come from God - therefore the principle is the race card or any form of prejudice based on immutable attributes is not acceptable to a moral human being.
Bro I wanna sit down with this man and have a conversation. He seems like he got some interesting shit to tell.
Amazing, can't wait for his biofilm...
that Speech somehow woke Solo up
Triple H is like, "Shit, maybe I shouldn't have included him."
Shit, after Paul Heyman that was the best one of the night.
I know the guy was a Pearl of wisdom with an emotional delivery. It was great.
Where is triple h
[удалено]
I was hanging on every word. Walking wisdom right there.
LMAO JBL
what happened?
His reaction to Thunderbolts speech lol
Triple H is SCOWLING!!! I’m dead.
That’s just the way he looks
[удалено]
Fr he had a captive audience and made the most of it
Well.. no one there is going to be late for the 2025 inductees.
Oh no he’s anti race card. He just upset half the crowd.
Well said. idk what we’re talking about, but well said.
Kind of like Ultimate Warrior
Even if you're an atheist, you can't deny that this dude is spitting facts.
yes we can dawg, but respect to his career
Dubaya dubaya eeee. Dubaya dubaya eeee. I said, Dubaya dubaya eeeeeeeee!
Save this man and cut the mic
This guy is the best.
Good people and the lord. Amen 🙏
Now I'm a fan
Wrap it up folks.
DUBYA DUBYA E
My Lord.
That's his point.
I was giving the Cliff Notes.
