On a recent edition of the “Talk is Jericho” podcast, AEW veteran Paul Wight recalled working with Hornswoggle at several WWE live events.
Wight remembered the spot where he would deliver his signature KO Punch while Hornswoggle would try to sneak attack him.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On the live event spot: “Hornswoggle and I used to do a spot on the live events where he would come into the ring and he would try to attack me, and I would just turn around and KO Punch him from above, and he would f**king lay there dead.”
On the spot getting a different reaction than intended: “It wasn’t getting the reaction like: ‘Oh yay!’ It was like: ‘Is he really dead?’ Everybody just goes, ‘Did we just witness a crime?’ We get to TV Monday and they’re like: yeah, you can’t do that spot with Hornswoggle anymore. It’s too much. I’m like ‘in this f**king company it’s too much? REALLY?’”
