So we have a few stories to get into today
concerning Peyton Royce and her latest comments
about Shawn Spears and leaving WWE as well
as Triple H’s response to the big leak
Let’s start off with Peyton Royce and Shawn
Spears.
Peyton and Shawn first got together while
at the WWE performance center towards the
start of their WWE careers
They were both brand new to the WWE at the
time and quickly started dating
Shawn, who was known as Tye Dillinger at the
time, made his debut in 2017 and his girlfriend,
Peyton Royce, made her main roster debut a
year later.
So they got called up to the main roster just
around the same time and got to travel with
each other for a while until something changed
It was clear that Peyton Royce had a bright
future ahead of her on the main roster, but
things weren’t so good for Shawn spears
and his “Tye Dillinger” character at the
time
It was clear that WWE never had any real plans
for Shawn and he was getting tired of sitting
on the sidelines when he knew for a fact that
WWE would never properly use him
That’s when all the AEW hype came up and
they were recruiting talent for their roster.
That’s when Shawn started to think of the
huge decision to jump over to AEW and leave
Peyton over at WWE
The couple has mentioned numerous times that
this was something they talked about in great
detail and approved with each other, so Shawn
Spears was released from WWE and was quickly
picked by AEW
In his first few months with AEW, Shawn Spears
has already been used more than he ever was
with the WWE, so it’s safe to say that he
made the right decision
Everyone had some much questions about Shawn’s
move because he just left his wife over at
WWE and went to AEW, but like we mentioned
before, the couple did approve everything
amongst themselves
They just want each other to be happy with
their careers so that’s why they made that
call. Peyton is happy in WWE and Shawn can
now be happy in AEW. It’s a win-win for
the both of them
Peyton Royce recently sat down for an interview
with Chris Van Vliet and revealed some new
things that we all didn’t know before
Peyton talked about how Shawn Spears had to
leave in the middle of their honeymoon to
wrestle, she had this to say about that entire
situation:
“We were on our honeymoon and smack dab
in the middle of it was the show, so we flew
from Hawaii to Chicago, and back to Hawaii
for the second leg of our honeymoon. I was
so happy for him and proud of him. Even up
until this point, the world has not gotten
a glimpse of how talented he is. He is on
another level and I can't wait until he finally
gets to show the world.”
So quite the interesting reveal there by Peyton.
They are so supportive of each other’s careers
that they’re willing to do things such as
leave in the middle of their honeymoon for
his match
All this took place last year, it was Shawn’s
first huge match for AEW and he didn’t wanna
miss it and use his honeymoon as an excuse,
so they both made the trip over there for
the show and then flew right back to Hawaii
to continue the second half of the honeymoon
Of course the big question here, especially
when the Iconics were off of television for
a longtime, was if Peyton Royce would leave
the WWE to join her husband at AEW
Peyton Royce addressed all that and had this
to say about the topic:
"No, it was never a thought for me. I wanted
him to be happy and needed him to be happy.
Wrestling is such a small world, everyone
knows everyone, everyone is friends. So many
of my friends are over [at AEW] and they have
friends with us. It's not as crazy as people...who
have these strange ideas”
Peyton brings up a great point that we talked
about a handful of times before.
Peyton and Shawn aren’t the only crossover
WWE and AEW couple around. You have Britt
Baker and Adam Cole, Renee Young and Jon Moxley,
and so much more of these couples that are
in different companies
Just because one person goes to one company
doesn’t mean that their significant other
has to jump over to that company as well.
There’s a lot of couples out there that
definitely make it work
Same thing goes for the friends as well. There
a lot of WWE superstars that are friends with
some of the AEW talent as well. Just because
they’re on competing shows doesn’t mean
that they dislike each other, sometimes that’s
just how people understand it, but Peyton
made it clear that they’re both still very
happy with the decision they made for the
both of them

Next up is a huge story concerning Triple
H and the massive WWE leak from last week
So you might have ran into it last week, I
know I came across it several times, but the
main event result of NXT’s Great American
Bash match between Keith Lee and Adam Cole
was leaked and spoiled about a week in advance
The leaked picture showed the confetti celebration
with Keith Lee holding both championship titles
and it really hurt the buildup and anticipation
to the match because just like that, we all
knew the winner right away thanks to the leak
There’s no real fans in attendance so you
might be asking yourself, “well how in the
world did it leak out?” Turns out that it
was one of WWE’s own employees that leaked
the image a week in advance
WWE and some fans tried to cover up the leak
by spreading the rumors that WWE filmed “multiple
endings” to the match to try to discredit
the leak, but that multiple endings rumor
obviously wasn’t true
The leak didn’t hurt the actual match, it
was still a great match and both men did a
phenomenal job, it’s just the best feeling
when you go into a match already knowing who’s
gonna win for sure, it just sort of takes
a lot of fun away from watching the match
Well now that the match officially aired and
everyone has seen the result, Triple-H is
finally addressing the leak and giving his
thoughts on all the controversy surrounding
the main event of the Great American Bash
Triple H had this to say when talking to Sports
Illustrated:
“I thought we had an epic show last week,
and this week’s show is something special.
I know there is a little bit of controversy
around it, and this won’t be the first time
I’ve taken it upon myself to manipulate
that process, but what I can tell you is that
this main event delivers. Adam Cole and Keith
Lee, I think it’s a dream match between
our two top performers from 2019, and they
deliver here”
"People are going to be very entertained.
When you look back in a year, a match like
this is going to make the demand even greater
for the Great American Bash next year."
So it was a phenomenal match, there’s no
denying that, the main issue a lot of fans
have is the leak
Obviously, WWE did leak it themselves, someone
else did and WWE can’t control what this
person did to leak it, but I think WWE could’ve
done a better job to patch it up and cover
it up a bit more
We heard the rumors that multiple endings
were filmed, maybe this was just a rumor that
came from WWE to try to discredit the leak,
but just the rumors of multiple endings being
filmed wasn’t enough. We needed more evidence
that multiple endings were filmed to throw
us off even more
For example, the second the Keith Lee Celebration
picture leaked online, I think it would’ve
been best for WWE to leak the Adam Cole celebration
picture as well
If you really recorded both endings and one
leaked online, just leak the other ending
yourself, so that you can protect the outcome
of the match for the fans.
Because now fans would be seeing pictures
from both outcomes of the match and they wouldn’t
be able to tell which one happened and which
one didn’t. I just think a situation like
that would’ve protected the outcome to the
main event a bit more than what they did
So WWE really dropped the ball there, they
could’ve done something more to cover up
the leak, but they decided not to
