Former WWE Superstar Mojo Rawley was a recent guest on the Oh…You Didn’t Know podcast which is hosted by Road Dogg and Casio Kid.
Rawley shared many tales from his decade-long career in the squared circle, including one about how The Hype Bros, his tag team with Zack Ryder, came about. He revealed that Triple H came up with the idea after seeing a video clip of Rawley with Rob Gronkowski.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
Mojo Rawley on Triple H’s reaction to the video: “It got picked up everywhere and that was the first time people were like, ‘Oh, come to WWE [to Rob Gronkowski].’ I think what happened was Hunter saw that and was like ‘This was well received; let’s do something like that here.’”
On how Triple H pitched the pairing to Rawley: “I remember when he told us about putting us together he was like, ‘Yeah, you know you’re the hype, he’s the bro, I think this could go well together. We will call you the Hype Bros or something. Not that name, that name sucks. We will come up with something else.’”
