| 0:00.0 | On today's Solo Wednesday news, W.W.E. Stars react to WrestleMania 42 Security Chaos. |
| 0:07.0 | A W.W.E. Hall of Famer is physically assaulted at WrestleMania 42. |
| 0:11.0 | Another Hall of Fame is filmed in the bathroom at WrestleMania 42, and the fan demands an apology from C.M. Punk. |
| 0:17.0 | Hello and welcome to What Culture Wrestling, myself, on Tripalardi. Solo Wednesday news. I hope you're good. I hope you well. |
| 0:22.6 | And I hope your week is going as well as possible. Right. Yesterday, we led the news video with reports of, I guess, chaotic security scenes in Las Vegas over WrestleMania weekend. There was fans swamping the park and gym hotel and casino, a general lack of security reinforcements, fans camping out by elevators in the lobby, even in the elevators. There was videos doing the rounds of a bunch of people around the Yachton, Drew McIntyre, Carmelo Hayes, Royce Keys, plenty of others, all getting hounded by swarms of the undead. Again, like something that would be George A. Romero movie. Only they were after autographs rather than brains. |
| 0:55.5 | Although, to be fair, the Zombies Eating Brains concept was not actually introduced |
| 0:58.4 | until Dan O'Bannon's Returned to Living Dead in 1985, just saying, |
| 1:02.0 | photos, but yes, fans causing chaos at the WrestleMania Hotel. |
| 1:08.2 | And of course, there was the incident where CM Punk knocked a phone out of a fan's hand after |
| 1:11.6 | they recorded AJ Lee and Bailey sharing a hug, there'll be more on that later. But now there's |
| 1:15.9 | more on this wider situation of WWE Talent's reaction to, quite frankly, to some ridiculous |
| 1:22.3 | scenes. Now this comes from Fightful Select, who when reaching out to talent to ask about the security |
| 1:27.1 | setup, |
| 1:27.7 | the responses were along the lines of what security? |
| 1:31.2 | And that it was felt by the majority of talent that W.E and TKO should be providing on-site |
| 1:35.7 | security for major events like this, and when talent is staying at a centralized location. |
| 1:40.4 | Now, for most events, individual talent is responsible for sorting out their own hotels, |
| 1:44.0 | but in an event like WrestleMania, Rastoman W.D.E. provides the hotel, |
| 1:48.6 | although even then some talent will still choose to stay elsewhere to, well, basically to avoid this sort of chaos. |
| 1:55.3 | Now, this fight report goes on saying how W.E encouraged fans not to initiate or instigate physical contact with wrestlers |
| 2:01.3 | during meeting greets, citing not just comfortability issues, but also health risks. |
| 2:07.5 | One unnamed wrestler believes a part of the reason, for instance, like those at the MGM. |
