The truth they don't want you to see: Triple H's booking IS Vince McMahon's booking!
Triple H is in charge, but is the booking really all that different from the Vince McMahon era?
For years, fans hailed the new regime as a creative savior, but a closer look reveals that The Game is relying on the same old tropes, the same core talents, and the same formula that Vince McMahon perfected (and sometimes ruined). We're going to compare specific angles, talent pushes, and storytelling beats from both eras to show exactly how much they overlap. Is this a feature or a flaw?
Watch to find out if WWE has truly changed, or if we're just seeing the "same old WWE" with a different creative head.

Black Widow is BACK! AJ Lee has returned to professional wrestling, and the landscape has completely changed since she left. With a new generation of talent and a renewed focus on women's wrestling, the possibilities for her next chapter are endless. Brian H. Waters breaks down
the 5 MUST-HAVE feuds for AJ Lee's highly anticipated comeback. From long-awaited showdowns to never-before-seen dream matches, we look at the opponents who could help write the next chapter of her legendary career.
Here are the feuds we'll discuss:
AJ Lee vs. Roxanne Perez: The ultimate "student vs. mentor" story. Roxanne has publicly cited AJ as one of her biggest inspirations, but with her new heel persona, could she now try to take down the very person who inspired her?
AJ Lee vs. Bayley: While they had a brief interaction in the past, a proper feud between these two has been a "what if" scenario for years. Could AJ Lee step up to The Role Model and challenge her leadership of Damage CTRL?
AJ Lee vs. Naomi: A feud that was built in FCW but never fully realized on the main roster. With Naomi's incredible athleticism and dynamic style, she would be the perfect opponent to test AJ Lee's in-ring abilities after her long absence.
AJ Lee vs. Chelsea Green: The "Hot Mess" vs. the "Black Widow." This is a battle of wildly different personalities that could lead to some of the most entertaining promos and segments.
AJ Lee vs. Giulia: A crossover dream match that pits the revolutionary of WWE's Divas era against one of the most dominant forces in wrestling today. Can AJ's psychological warfare and unique in-ring style stand up to the raw power and intensity of Giulia?
Join the debate and let us know in the comments below: which of these feuds do you want to see the most? Don't forget to like and subscribe for more wrestling content!
