Have any wrestlers ever copied bits from the Shrek & Donkey vs Knights match? Google tells me no. Enough wrestlers follow me here that somebody must be able to make it happen
For stepping in on the day, I’m proud of my first official turn doing the ring announcing.
Next time I might keep a pair of trousers in the boot juuuuust incase.
NEXT WEEK!

Joe Hendry recalls messing up his WWE tryout "worse than anyone ever has before" whilst William Regal was giving a speech to the attendees in catering:
“So I’ll tell you now. I’ve messed up a WWE tryout worse than anyone ever has. I’ve never told this story before.
"So yeah, we do the tryout, and we’re getting a bunch of feedback. So William Regal is telling us, ‘You’ve done a good job, need to focus on physiques. You need to focus on your technique.’ I’m thinking, all right, cool. So I go into catering. All the other guys are talking about how good the cake is in catering. I’m like, these guys, we’ve just been told to work on our physiques, and they’re eating cake. I’m going to show them that I’m eating rice and chicken. He’s going to see that, and he’s going to go, he’s coachable.
"So I’m sitting there with my rice and chicken. So, William Regal comes down, sits with us all. This is the awesome thing about William Regal, he sat down with us for like two hours and just told us, this is what wrestling is. I can remember almost every word that he said, and it helps me to this day. But the main point was that you as a wrestler is about building trust with the audience, so when the audience see you, they know that they are going to get value. They’re going to be entertained. It’s not just the big wins, like we talked about, the pay-per-views and the TVs, it’s the house shows, it’s the fan interactions, it’s everything. He made me realize that about the business, but he’s given us these amazing lessons.
"I’m sitting there with my chicken and rice, and he’s in the middle of this very impassioned speech, and while I’m chewing, this little piece of rice just falls down the back of my throat, and I just try and clear my throat a little bit to get rid of it, and I inhale the piece of rice. So I’m in a situation where I got two choices, right? I can either just cough and interrupt this story, oh, sorry, my bad, and move on. Or you can just say, You know what? I’m going to try and clear my throat silently. So he’s telling the story, and I go, I’m going to do that. I just end up accidentally inhaling another eight grains of rice.
"So he’s telling this story, and I’m there, and I’m like, and the guy sitting next to me is like, What are you doing? He’s in the middle of a story. I basically spat rice all over the table where everyone’s eating, and he’s telling the story. So from his perspective, he’s telling this story, and I’ve just gone, oh yeah [coughed up rice]. So maybe that was the reason. Who knows?
"But no, he sold it beautifully. He just says, ‘Can’t take you anywhere, Joe.’ And then walked off. So that was a comedy gold response.”
