The Power Slam Podcast - Randy Orton, Gunther & More
🎧 Listen to the full episode on Inside The Ropes
WrestleMania ticket sales
They're having difficulty selling the tickets [for WrestleMania]. They had over 60,000 in both nights last year and it's not even configured for that many this year. I think at the moment they've got about 37,000 sold per night.
Ricochet social media controversy
As for saying to somebody 'I hope you get MS', I mean honestly, I think he should have been sacked or at least suspended for a while. What a thing to write.
Brock Lesnar return rumors
If he's retiring in Minneapolis at SummerSlam, you would imagine it's going to be Gunther and Brock there.
Randy Orton's mystery partner
Randy Orton did have a conversation with Michael Cole... he did say that somebody had been on the phone who reminded him of who he is. Is this Shane McMahon's big comeback?
Ricochet's AEW tenure
Ricochet spends an inordinate amount of time complaining and bitching and griping. He just comes across as so bitter about his whole WWE experience. If you've got to constantly blast the company you used to work for to make yourself relevant, that shows how irrelevant you are now.
Gunther's WrestleMania status
I can't imagine Gunther not having a big role in WrestleMania, but I also don't know what they do with him. It should have been him and Brock. It doesn't look like we're going to get Gunther Lesnar unless we get it at SummerSlam.
Hangman Page AEW title stipulation
Hangman Page lost to MJF and MJF is still the champ now. They went with the stipulation that Hangman Page can never challenge for the AEW World Championship again. It seems to me like they didn't learn from the mistake of before [with Cody Rhodes].
John Laurinaitis controversy
John Laurinaitis had tweeted out about his appearance... he has been accused by many fans who were there that he AI-imposed more of a crowd into the photo to make it look like it was a great line.
