“It’s huge. You mentioned Liv [Morgan] and Rhea [Ripley], they’re gonna do it for the women’s title there, you’ve got John Cena. Lots of surprises. Tribal Combat, Roman Reigns versus Solo Sikoa. It’s going to be huge. This is without a doubt the biggest step forward in the history of our industry. That’s not an understatement.
