The cold open for tonight’s Raw introducing the Netflix
audience to the world of professional wrestling was
published by WWE today.
Narrated by WWE’s Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H”
Levesque, the three minute-plus hair-raising video gives a
look at the history of how WWE evolved throughout the years
as an artist paints the legends on a ring mat.
Superstars such as Steve Austin, Bret Hart, Kurt Angle,
Shawn Michaels, The Undertaker, Trish Stratus, Lita, Becky
Lynch, Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, Hulk Hogan, Andre The
Giant, Jake “The Snake” Roberts, Ted DiBiase, Rowdy Roddy
Piper, Ronda Rousey, Goldberg, The Rock, Macho Man Randy
Savage, The Undertake, Ric Flair, Charlotte Flair, nWo, CM
Punk, and many, many others are all featured in the video.
Notably missing from the intro? Vince McMahon. And Brock
Lesnar. None of them are featured not even for a
millisecond.
“The screen gets smaller, but the show gets bigger,” Triple
H says as the orchestra music reaches a crescendo. “Global.
From television to streaming. America to the world. Ladies
and gentleman, presenting the all-real, ever-fantastic,
never-end…story of WWE.”
