Rey Mysterio Comments on Wanting to Give Fans a Good Farewell for His Retirement Plans
This past Saturday’s Fanatics Fest NYC event in New York City, New York featured a live episode of the Busted Open Radio podcast with Rey Mysterio as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Mysterio’s thoughts about wanting to give fans a good farewell for his retirement plans for his wrestling career.
“I think what’s left is to be able to plan a nice sunset and be able to thank everyone that has followed and supported me throughout the years, and give them, when the time is right, a good farewell. Not something that’ll happen one time and then I come back and do it again. Maybe a farewell tour. Something that can mean something to me and everyone that will be there. Whether it’s every city, a country, ‘this is the last time we’ll be together.”

Triple H Comments on “WWE Has A Little Something for All Ages, You Never Want to Age Yourself Out”
Full Press Wrestling held a recent interview with WWE CCO Paul “Triple H” Levesque. One of the topics discussed included his thoughts about how WWE trying to appeal to all ages for their shows can be a tricky thing.
“The tricky part about what we do is you’ve got to have something for the 60 year old, you’ve gotta have something for the 40 year old, you’ve gotta have something for the 30 [year old], 20 [year old], and you gotta have something for the 10 and 6 year old. You’ve gotta have a little bit of something for everybody. The characters, the storylines. You never want to age yourself out, you don’t want to shoot yourself [in the foot by being] too kiddy because even the kids won’t like it then right, they don’t want somebody pandering to them. You’ve got to have something that crosses everything and it’s the trick of what we do, a little something for everyone.”

Paul Heyman Comments on Bloodline Storyline Being “Not Even in the Third Inning Yet”
This past Saturday’s Fanatics Fest NYC event in New York City, New York featured a live episode of the NotSam Wrestling podcast with Paul Heyman as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Heyman’s thoughts about WWE’s years-long Bloodline storyline being “not even in the third inning yet.”
“I could not imagine someone coming in in this era and saying, ‘Yeah, I’ve seen enough of The Bloodline. Enough of them. That’s alright, Roman, thanks a lot, see you later!’
Some people tried to rail me over the coals last year like, ‘Oh, Paul Heyman said they’re only in the third inning, what a jerk off Paul Heyman is!’ I got news for you, I don’t even think we’re in the third inning yet and now that you see the emergence of Solo and Jacob Fatu and the Tongans and the fact that they are a real threat, the first time a real threat to Roman Reigns’ dominance, to Roman Reigns’ sitting at the head of the table, to Roman Reigns being the top star, to Roman Reigns actually being the Tribal Chief. How many stories can we tell from the position that we’re in now?
You don’t know what Jimmy Uso’s stance on this is. You don’t know (where) Jey Uso stands on this. You don’t know if or when the Wise Man will return. You don’t know who else Solo may or may not have in his back pocket ready to debut. You don’t know what our moves, what Roman Reigns’ moves, what my moves, what anybody’s moves can be. All you know is that Roman Reigns is back, he’s back to reclaim the title of Tribal Chief from Solo and Solo has so much backup right now.
I can’t imagine someone coming into power in this company and saying we’ve told the entire story of The Bloodline. I see someone coming into power and saying, ‘Oh my god, look what I get to play with now.”
