Stephanie McMahon recently spoke to ESPN.com about the rise of women’s wrestling in WWE, NXT and more. You can check out the full interview here along with a quote below.
Triple H giving men and women opportunities in NXT: “NXT is truly Paul’s baby and his vision and he treats the men and women performers exactly the same. The female performers are given the same amount of time and the same opportunity as the male performers and I think it’s that opportunity that has allowed these women to really hone their craft. Professional wresting is like performance art. It truly is. You’re taking the crowd on a ride, on an emotional roller coaster. It is a craft that takes time to perfect and I think the advantage of NXT is they are given that time to do just that.”
Thursday night at the WWE live event in Melbourne, Australia Roman Reigns teamed up with Finn Balor to take on the team of Chris Jericho and Seth Rollins.
Reigns and Balor won the match, but at some point during the contest Roman Reigns was busted open.
