Major SmackDown team will break up following multiple teases by Triple H, predicts current WWE champion
WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H has been doing a great job with the storylines he is presenting before fans. Many non-title plots have become the biggest draws of the Stamford-based promotion under his creative direction. Now, while The Game has teased the downfall of a SmackDown team multiple times, a reigning champion has predicted its imminent split. That would be Nathan Frazer.
Austin Theory and Grayson Waller have had trust issues for quite some time. DIY had pointed at the selfish nature of Waller before dethroning A-Town Down Under as the WWE Tag Team Champions. Moreover, the Australian star has engaged in a lot of trash-talking and later hid behind Theory by using him as a human shield.
The October 8, 2024, episode of NXT will see Theory and Waller visit the developmental brand to challenge Frazer and Axiom for the NXT Tag Team Championship. Seeing the recent development with A-Town Down Under and Fraxiom's history of breaking tag teams, Nathan Frazer has shared an image on X/Twitter, predicting the eventual split of Austin and Grayson.
Check out Frazer's tweet below:
It remains to be seen whether Fraxiom defeats A-Town Down Under on NXT or not.
WWE Superstar Baron Corbin compares the booking styles of Triple H and Shawn Michaels
Triple H and Shawn Michaels have been each other's shadows throughout their WWE careers. The former D-Generation X members now hold creative positions in the company, with The Heartbreak Kid handling NXT and The Game being the Chief Content Officer. Recently, Baron Corbin compared the booking styles of both men while speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling's Senior Editor Bill Apter.
The Lone Wolf noted that both legends share a similar mindset when it comes to storylines as well as their execution. Corbin also noted that this similarity is actually a good thing to have.
"I mean, I think the cool thing is they're fairly similar. They both have a similar mind for the show they're trying to create. They wanna have action. They wanna have car crashes. They wanna have dominant superstars. Guys that can hand out beatings and guys that can go. I think that's something that's really amazing," Baron Corbin said. [1:25 – 1:45]
With both Triple H and Shawn Michaels using a similar blueprint, NXT stars may not face as many problems when they get their main roster call-ups. It would be interesting to see which new things emerge from their minds as the white and gold brand moves to the CW Network.
