WWE Hall Of Famer Road Dogg recently talked about Clash of Champions 2017 and he talked about some of the names being featured weekly on TV during that time period.
Road Dogg was asked if Vince McMahon was a fan of Rusev Day:
“We saw Rusev Day getting over,” Road Dogg said. “I honestly don’t know what happened to Rusev Day. One day, we were pushing it and the next day we weren’t. When I say we weren’t pushing it didn’t go away. It didn’t just disappear. We just weren’t doing anything with it anymore. Every time I would pitch something, it would get shot down. So I don’t know what happened.”
Road Dogg continued, “I’m not going to say anything because the last time I said something, I got a phone call and I’m not gonna have that happen again. But honestly, I don’t know what went down that all of a sudden we stopped running with it because it was going really well and I think it was getting over. I don’t know if Vince was a fan of Aiden English. I feel comfortable saying that.”
English (real name Rehwoldt) was released by WWE in 2020. The 35-year-old signed with Impact Wrestling as a color commentator and he wrestled a handful of matches before retiring in August.
