Maybe I’ve missed it but when did they start referring to him under that name? Michael Cole rattled it off so naturally you’d think that had always been his name in WWE, even though it makes no sense at all.

Sure it makes sense. When/if Stephanie comes back, now they have a name they can say without bringing up her dad.

A lot of us noticed during the Royal Rumble pre show. Not sure if it happened before then.

Glad you made an HHH thread.
---
Anyone notice how much smaller he is than the Rock?
I get loss of muscle mass due to heart issues but he's much shorter as well.
I always remember them being toe to toe with Rocky.
Was he wearing lifts when wrestling? Was it the mane of hair? Is Dwayne wearing Temu three inches lifts?

It makes him sound more in charge and formal. I think that's what they're going for.

I don't know the details, but Dwayne absolutely beasted everyone in that stage. The dude is huge.

He’s been requesting media use his real name in interviews and articles etc for a few years now, but as far as using it on WWE TV this is new.

It'll take some getting used to, if he is getting in a feud with board member Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson then it makes sense to do it now.

In think they've used he on the name placard off and on fire awhile but not on commentary until now I guess.

Sure it makes sense. When/if Stephanie comes back, now they have a name they can say without bringing up her dad. Has there been any word about Stephanie since she left the company? Her last tweet and Instagram post were about her having surgery a few days after, which is over a year ago now. Glad you made an HHH thread. --- Anyone notice how much smaller he is than the Rock?

Is Dwayne wearing Temu three inches lifts? I had third row seats to a house show years ago and everyone looked so much bigger than on TV, the women were so much more gorgeous in person, but when HHH was fighting with someone up by the barrier I thought “he’s a lot shorter than he looks on TV” lol. He’s the only one I thought that about.

He’s the only one I thought that about. No word to my knowledge but after thinking for a bit, I would bet heavy money that is the reason why. Might not be soon, might not be ever but it would allow her to show up and be called Stephanie Leveque without more of the focus being on her dad instead of the return.
