– T-Bar wonders where the RETRIBUTION reinforcement went during NXT TakeOver: WarGames when a number of masked assailants interfered on Johnny Gargano’s behalf during his North American title match.

– Jim Ross commented on Howard Stern’s influence on the Attitude Era during an episode of Grilling JR (transcript via Bodyslam.net)
“It’s the attitude era man. Everything goes. The more coarse the better, at times, at least it would seem that way. So yeah, it was, this is that part… you and I were talking about your friend Shuli of the Howard Stern show who now lives in Huntsville.. I think a lot of the boldness of the Howard Stern show, was largely an impetus of kicking off the attitude era. And I think Howard’s creativity, and his staffs creativity and creating all these characters and these oddities, and freaks of nature.. ya know, all these.. ya know the wack pack.. I think it kinda bled over into the early stages of the attitude era.”
And then once the attitude era started getting over, and people liked that R rated pro wrestling, then uh you just took it from there. But I think Howard Stern’s influence, his shows creativity, the oddities and so forth and so on, was a big part of what we were doing in that glory years.”
