RedTwoster Posted April 28 Posted April 28 It’s the kinda thing we joke about in a ‘LOL WWE’ kinda way, but I think it merits its own thread given the potential implications. TKO has confirmed that Triple H and Nick Khan are using AI for WWE storylines (link to Postwrestling) - we obviously knew it was trialled, but as far as I’m aware this is the first time they’ve explicitly confirmed that it’s in active use - the quote from Mark Shapiro: TKO President and COO Mark Shapiro called the company’s embrace of AI a “major priority,” emphasizing how AI could help employees become more efficient and productive. He noted how the UFC uses AI for fighter rankings and explained WWE’s use of AI. “Nick Khan and Triple H are using AI for storylines with the WWE,” Shapiro said. “What’s resonating? What superstars are resonating? In what pockets of the country are they resonating? That helps us with, obviously, our content, our editorial, our creative, our mapping, our touring, and of course, maximizing revenue and getting our product out to the fans most in need of it.” And frankly, things like the Pat McAfee debacle make significantly more sense when you look at it through the lens of it potentially being generated by AI. It genuinely seems like the kind of thing generative AI might suggest. If nothing else, it’s impressive to see WWE find new, shitty ways to be unethical. They deserve to be imploding in the way that they are. Quote

Paid Members air_raid Posted April 29 Paid Members Posted April 29 Just imagine. Anyone that’s tried to use AI as critic as well as creator knows it goes like this ; ”Hey ChatGPT, should we have Jey Uso win the Rumble then the Real Worlds Championship because he’s so popular?” ”Thats a fucking great idea! Let’s break it down; * SURPRISE 😲 Jey Uso winning the Rumble would bring back an unpredictably that has been lacking in WWE main event scenes, especially as pertaining to men’s Rumble winners. * THE POP 😃 Jey Uso is riding a monumental wave of popularity and his “Yeet” catchphrase has arenas jumping on a near-fortnightly basis. It’s a popular result. * LONG TERM PLANNING 🤓 Creating a brand new babyface main event star gives you fresh matches for years, if not decades to come. Pull the trigger. YEET!” ”Hey ChatGPT, Jey Uso in main events went down like a Barburrito trump in a packed lift. Why didn’t you warn us he was crap?” ”🤦♂️ Yes, Jey Uso in a top spot was always destined to fail, moron, for at least half a dozen blindingly obvious reasons ; 🎇..” etc Quote

Killjoy_Gee Posted April 30 Posted April 30 I personally really like the direction ChatGPT wants to take Penta. Its almost like the Saudi's booking the Greatest Royal Rumble. Maybe also proof of how AI is currently being used? Maybe we can use this thread to predict 2026? 🩸 Phase 1: “Cero Miedo” Open Challenge (May–June) Penta declares that the WWE Intercontinental Championship is no longer a prize… it’s a proving ground. Every week: Lights drop Opponent already in the ring Penta enters like a final boss 🔥 Feuds: Chad Gable Technical master vs chaos striker. Gable targets the arm, tries to solve Penta like a maths problem. ➤ Penta wins… but sells damage. First crack in the armour. Ricochet Pure spectacle. This is your “clip it for YouTube” match. ➤ Penta wins clean, handshake tease… then snubs it. Respect isn’t his language. Shinsuke Nakamura Now we get weird. Striking. Mind games. Silence. ➤ Penta wins in a borderline horror match. Both men leave feeling dangerous. 👉 By the end of June, commentary starts saying it: “No one is surviving Penta. They’re just lasting.” 🦂 Phase 2: The Hunter Appears (July) Enter Drew McIntyre. Not loud. Not ranting. Just… watching. Drew cuts one line: “You’re not feared. You’re untested.” Now the story flips: Penta has beaten styles Drew is the first man who can match violence Build: Drew destroys one of Penta’s previous opponents (Gable works well) Penta finally shows frustration First pull-apart brawl feels ugly, not flashy 👉 This feud is about: Penta = myth Drew = reality ⚖️ Phase 3: SummerSlam – Trial by Violence At SummerSlam, you go brutal. No gimmicks. No nonsense. Just: “Who actually survives this?” Match story: Drew targets the mask, trying to strip the mystique Penta goes after Drew’s neck and arm Both kick out of things they shouldn’t Near-finish: Drew hits Claymore… Penta rolls out, refuses to be pinned Penta counters a second Claymore into a destroyer 👑 Who dethrones him? Option A (Clean, legacy move): Drew McIntyre Drew wins at SummerSlam. Why it works: Elevates the IC title as serious again Penta loses nothing… he needed a war to be stopped Drew becomes a terrifying champion going into autumn Option B (Longer game, more poetic): Ilja Dragunov Penta beats Drew at SummerSlam… …but after the match: Dragunov appears No smile Just that unhinged intensity Fast forward to September: Dragunov dethrones Penta in a match that feels like two men burning alive on purpose Why it works: Penta = fear Dragunov = suffering That clash writes itself in blood 🩸 🎭 Final flavour This run shouldn’t feel like “good matches every week.” It should feel like: stepping into a cathedral where the champion is the monster at the altar.

I could be speaking exclusively for myself here (though I doubt it) but I'd just like to say that I hope nobody ever spouts all this AI-generated shite all over this forum as if it were a post of actual value again.
