Tyler Breeze Talks Unique iPhone Entrance

In a new interview conducted by Jim Varsallone of The Miami Herald, WWE NXT star Tyler Breeze had the following to say about the genesis of his unique entrance:

“It was actually Triple H’s idea [to use the iPhone]. The initial idea when I first started doing it was with a pocket mirror. I found a nicer one that you could go out and get. It was working, but when Triple H saw it, he said, ‘We’ve done that. We’re past that. There’s a lot more we can do.’ He suggested the selfie. ‘The selfie movement is really big right now, so what if you had a cell phone, taking selfies all the way to the ring and during matches.’ I immediately said, ‘Yea.’

“You can’t go wrong with technology type stuff. It’s always advancing, and especially now more than ever, there’s so much stuff you can do. Everyone is glued to their phone. It’s 2015. Everyone always has their phone on them. They’re constantly checking stuff, checking Twitter, checking Instagram. Everybody wants to know what’s going on. There’s nothing wrong that can come from doing this. So I had the phone, tried that out, and it went from there. We figured out how to stream it up onto our big screen that we have for the entrance, and at the last [NXT] TakeOver [special] we did the Periscope app where everybody was watching as I was making my entrance. Any new app that comes out, any new technology that comes out, I can be the first one to tap into.”

More on TNA Dropping Guaranteed Deals

As noted, TNA recently informed many talents that their guaranteed deals will soon be dropped, in favor of per-appearance deals.

According to the PWInsider.com report, numerous TNA talents are not pleased with the changes. In fact, it’s possible some talents may turn down the new per-appearance offers and wrap up their run with TNA.

It should be pointed out that while most of the contracts will be changed to the new per-appearance structure, some high-profile talents, such as Kurt Angle and Jeff Hardy, may remain under guaranteed deals.
