February 27, 201312 yr Author comment_5537097 They have a brand new opening, overly American in theme, showing Hogan doing American hero-type stuff. Randy Savage has now joined Vince and Piper at the booth, and that is quite a bit of personality in one place.
March 6, 201312 yr comment_5538039 You can already sense that the announcers are going to be more over than most of the roster.
March 14, 201312 yr comment_5538897 This intro is literally all about Hogan, which is pretty absurd. It's enough to make you long for the days of "the brand" above all else. Savage is gonna be WWF BROADCASTING CHAMPION OF THE WORLD, OOOOOH YEAH.

June 16, 201312 yr comment_5548100 Man that open was a little much and felt like the debut of the Hulk Hogan show. I liked seeing Macho join the booth here and while he is not a heel, he is also not introducing himself as a plain jane babyface either.
April 28, 201510 yr comment_5666468 The opening sequence was more Hogan-centric than any other opening except maybe the "Thriller" opening to Championship back in the mid-eighties. Is there anyone else on the roster? I sure hope they filmed a different opening for the international shows; even our allies may not have appreciated getting the red, white, and blue shoved down their throats at the beginning of a wrestling show. Maybe Savage won't be as bad as I remember; I liked his line about becoming "the WWF broadcasting champion", although Jesse's got that belt retired, at least for the color commentating division. I liked Piper's mini-promo on DiBiase and his use of the phrase "dig it" at the end, which of course Savage took (hopefully) comic exception to. I also liked Randy's small hand gesture of support for Piper when he talked about going after Sherri. These two might just be fun after all.
