Triple H has promised WWE fans something big in the first week of 2024.
The promotion is heavily promoting the January episodes of Raw, NXT and SmackDown with each show being a special edition of the brand with multiple high-stakes matches, named “New Year Knockout Week” by the company. The Day 1 Raw on January 1st has already got the world talking as The Rock made his surprise return to seemingly set up a WrestleMania showdown with Roman Reigns.
The week continues with a New Year’s Evil special of NXT and a New Year’s Revolution special of SmackDown. Both shows have Premium Live Event quality cards promising title matches and implications for future events.
Along with 3 major shows in January, it has been further announced that a 2024 Preview Special will air on Peacock on Thursday, January 4th. Along with an appearance from CM Punk, it was revealed on Raw that Triple H will have a “major announcement” for fans.
Also advertised to appear on the show are NXT Champion Ilja Dragunov, Montez Ford, Bianca Belair and Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley.
While WWE fans are excited by the news, many wrestling fans will find this rather amusing due to the events that took place the previous year. Over the course of 2023, AEW President Tony Khan repeatedly promised big announcements for fans on Dynamite. The announcements themselves were rather mixed, leading to many fans ridiculing the frequency and lack of impact of Khan’s latter addresses on Dynamite.
Triple H Happy With New WWE Ownership
2024 will see the first full year that WWE is under the ownership of the Endeavor group. With major events announced and likely more to come over the course of the year, the company looks to break records set in 2023. In regards to being owned by Endeavor, Triple H has heavily praised the new owners for being able to fast-track everything and described the group as “the best in the business at what they do.”
