A WWE Hall of Famer has revealed that he wanted to make a TNA reference during a Monday Night Raw segment.
On the December 5 edition of WWE Raw, JBL and Baron Corbin held their first poker invitational with various WWE stars.
The invitational took place over the course of several segments on the show and included AJ Styles, Karl Anderson, Doc Gallows, Mia Yim, Dominik Mysterio, Dexter Lumis and more.
On the latest “Stories with Brisco and Bradshaw”, John Bradshaw Layfield admitted that he wanted to make a TNA Aces & Eights reference during the invitational. He said:
“When we’re dealing the cards and we’re doing the last thing, it occurred to me. I wanted to have Luke Gallows have aces and eights for his hand and not say anything about it. Just throw it down.”
“I didn’t have a chance to clear [it with WWE]. I don’t know if that would’ve been a problem or not, but I just thought about that as soon as we’re doing the last scene. I thought, ‘Damn it, I missed something there.'”
