During a recent appearance on the “SHAK Wrestling” podcast, The Motor City Machine Guns’ Alex Shelley credited WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque as the reason why he and Chris Sabin signed with WWE. He said,
“We have no idea whose idea it was to bring us in. What I can say though, we talked directly to Paul, Triple H, and he treated us with the utmost respect. A huge factor in our decision was that we wanted to be players on his team. We wanted to be a part of the WWE machine, specifically with him leading the charge. That to me was something that was always at the front of our minds.”
During a recent appearance on the “Busted Open After Dark” podcast, WWE NXT Superstar Jordynne Grace commented on the body transformation she went through while training for a bodybuilding competition in 2023. She said,
“I probably ruined it for a lot of wrestlers in TNA because I was actually supposed to wrestle Mickie James, I think a week before my building competition. I think they just looked at me and were like, ‘We don’t think you can do this match.’ I was empty inside. I was a shell of my former self. That weekend, they had me cut a promo and they put it up online. Everyone is calling me like a coke head because my cheeks were sucked in. It was a crazy look.”
