Years after the storyline ended, Swoggle was revealed as the Anonymous RAW General Manager, and he recently recalled being asked to adopt a New Jersey accent for the reveal.
During a recent appearance on the “Rewind Recap Relive” podcast, Swoggle reflected on being revealed as the notorious anonymous GM during the 1,000th episode of RAW.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On being asked to do a New Jersey accent for the role: “[I said] You guys know I can’t do accents. You guys should know this by now I can’t — I can’t do this.”
On the reveal: “It never came to be because I could not pull off a Jersey accent, and then it just … The reveal was what it was. And, man, it sucked.”
During a recent appearance on the “Babyfaces” podcast, Dominik Mysterio discussed WWE’s move to Netflix with the debut of Monday Night RAW.
Dominik said, “Morale is high. We’re all super excited to to be able to just be on Netflix, because a lot of a lot of us have families. I have family in Mexico. Judgment Day has family in Ireland and stuff because of Finn and JD. So, our families struggled to to be able to see us because if they don’t have USA, they have to watch it on for us, it’s, like, Fox Sports or for that I don’t know what they have to watch it on in Ireland but it’s always different channels here and there. So the fact that you can just tune in whether it’s 8 PM or 5 PM West coast, East coast time, as long as you figure it out overseas and you have Netflix, you can watch it. So the fact that you can watch it all around the world at any point in time, even if you missed an episode last week, you can just go on there and click it and they have it all there.”
He continued, “So that’s huge for us, we’re in over a hundred something million homes, right? So that’s insane. That’s a whole different viewership for us. We’re used to just people tuning in on USA and seeing Monday Night Raw. But now it’s like whoever clicks on Netflix, you’re going to see, whether it’s Cody Rhodes or Bianca or Roman, Liv, myself, like you’re going to see wrestling on there. It’s really cool to see because it’s going to catch your attention and people are going to click on to see Monday Night Raw.”
Dominik also stated that people would hate to see him as the World Champion. He said,
“I think that people would go absolutely insane. People would hate to see me as world champion.”
