There almost seems to be a conscious effort on Triple H's part throughout the NXT portion of the documentary to characterise how his pet project is in many ways almost, but not quite, entirely unlike the primary product. Mr. Helmsley is very aware that fans "understand the reality" behind the brand, with many of them supporting the talent more so than the characters, and continuously projects the belief that such talent is afforded a degree of freedom they might not necessarily enjoy should they be working a different night of the week.

After pulling off yet another brilliant TakeOver, a beaming Triple H meets before an assembled press. Perhaps most tellingly, his wistfully, knowingly quips that the success of the most recent show - and all those which have preceded it - hinges on "the stuff you can't script, the stuff you can't write."

Pro wrestling, then.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
