The recent announcement by Triple H at WWE’s Netflix media event has sent suprisewaves through the wrestling community, casting a shadow of uncertainty over the future of RAW. Veteran wrestling personality Vince Russo, who has had the privilege of working with both Triple H and The Rock, has sounded a warning bell, predicting a major fallout between the two industry giants. According to Russo, the ratings of the red brand are unlikely to change, despite the hype surrounding the move to Netflix, as everything the WWE does is tied to The Rock’s bank account. The Rock’s family has a long history in the wrestling business, and he is a successful movie star and entrepreneur, with a different perspective on the industry compared to Triple H.

Russo believes that these fundamentally different philosophies will inevitably lead to a rift between the two, as Triple H is deeply passionate about the wrestling business and is driven by a desire to create compelling stories and matches, whereas The Rock is more focused on generating revenue and maximizing profits. This conflict, Russo says, will ultimately lead to a separation between the two, which could have significant implications for the future of WWE. The tension between Triple H and The Rock is not a new development, and many fans have been warning of a potential fallout between the two for some time. Russo’s comments have added fuel to the fire, and it will be interesting to see how this conflict plays out in the coming months.

The fact that The Rock is advertised for RAW’s premiere on Netflix, and his availability for WrestleMania 41 is still uncertain, only adds to the intrigue surrounding this situation. One thing is certain, however, is that the current terrain of WWE is unlikely to remain stable for much longer. With The Rock at the helm of the Board, and conflicting interests emerging, fans can expect a wild ride in the coming months as the fate of the red brand and the future of WWE are shaped by the ongoing battle between Triple H and The Rock. The future of RAW is now shrouded in uncertainty, as the two giants clash in a battle of ideologies and interests.
