Tessitore also mentioned the fact that the special moment that Rhea Ripley and Jey Uso had after the main event was beautiful and praised the main event as well.
“This is beautiful… And it should be a moment because of how the night started and what… And Rhea bringing this together. This was an awesome match from start to finish. I thought what was thread through this evening was very special and it was great to see it. But watch everybody just enjoy this.”
Tessitore also revealed that he has been a lifelong WWE fan and the person the WWE Universe got tonight was a passionate fan.
“Here’s the deal. It’s the kid who skipped school in eighth grade to go meet Big John Studd. It’s the kid who was rooting against the face to root for Paul Orndorff. That’s the kid that you got tonight. I wasn’t great tonight, but I was a passionate fan tonight,” Joe Tessitore said.
