Story Time with Dutch Mantell 133 | Triple H vs The Rock In the big ol' bubble of professional wrestling, there has been quite a lot of comments and decisions in the last week that have simply left peopple scratching their heads: Triple H's comments about fans and podcasters overuse of the word "Pivot", just about EVERYTHING The Rock said when he appeared on the Pat McAfee Show and Tony Khan's defense of the recent spot involving Jon Moxley, Cope and a spiked 2x4. But it doesn't end there! In TNA, several guys were so convinced that someone else was going to catch Leon Slater when he threw himself from 16ft in the air that NOBODY caught him at all! Let's not ignore the very vague and unusual announcement made by Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan and their "New Project".  And just wait until you hear why the British Bulldog's home town refuse to honor his memory.
