Paul "Triple H" Levesque

So you have the sort of

icon of the sports, and there is a big E on the front of their name for entertainment, but the icon of sports, and obviously we like to think we're the best at what we do, coming together.

The ultimate spectacle.

I've been to every other sporting event out there.

There's nothing like WrestleMania.

And nobody really promotes those live events like ESPN.

Their ability to do shoulder programming that leads you into those events is second to none.

So it's an amazing partnership for us.

Yeah, look, you go back not that long ago to UFC.

where there was a lot of, it sort of wasn't a household name.

It sort of wasn't to the degree that it is now.

ESPN changed that for them.

ESPN sort of put them in the day-to-day, I hate to say water cooler talk because it makes me sound old, but like it's day-to-day conversation.

Thank you for the one person that laughed.

The day-to-day conversation.

So when you, you know, already we see that.

When Monday Night Raw gets done and you flip the SportsCenter that night, there's a recap of Monday Night Raw happening on SportsCenter, just like if we were an NFL game, an NBA game, anything else.

And as somebody that grew up watching the business with no way to catch up on it, that's a massive step forward.

And it normalizes you to everybody else.
