In an interesting piece of news from Saturday night (April 15) former WWE star John Hennigan (FKA John Morrison) fought and won in his pro-boxing debut at the Creator Clash 2 event from Tampa, Florida.
On a night where numerous YouTubers and online celebrities competed in the ring, Hennigan stood across from Epic Meal Time’s Harley Morenstein for his debut fight.
Hennigan would make short work of the YouTuber, scoring two knockdowns in the opening two rounds before scoring the TKO win in the third round.
While Hennigan’s post-fight call-out of famous YouTube boxing sensation KSI may have stole the headlines, it turns out there was another notable occurrence from Hennigan’s fight.
And that was Hennigan’s all-star ring entourage that comprised of a selection of current and former WWE and AEW talents.
As captured by Twitter user AdamGoldberg28, notable WWE stars such as LA Knight, Karrion Kross, Scarlett, Vic Joseph and AEW stars Jake Hager and Hennigan’s wife Taya Valkyrie all accompanied Hennigan to the ring.
Completing the extremely random amalgamation of names was former WWE star Mojo Rawley, who was also there for Hennigan’s big boxing debut.
