After watching the main event of WrestleMania 39 play out exactly as he intended, and listing to two of his champions, Bianca Belair and Roman Reigns, discuss their accomplishments in their respective post-match press conferences – curiously enough sponsored by the movie The Pope’s Exorcist – Paul “Triple H” Levesque took it upon himself to […]
