During his recent discussion with the It’s My Wrestling podcast, former WWE Superstar Jacques Rougeau reflected on a few locker room pranks.
According to Rougeau, the pranks involved Dynamite Kid and the British Bulldog’s, leading to a confrontation that resulted in a loss of teeth. Check out the highlights below.
On the Dynamite Kid and the British Bulldog’s ribs:
“I think of all the times that they were doing bad jokes to people. Cutting their pants in the winter before they went to the airport, things that were not nice, shaving a guy’s hair. I think that Vince and the boys would laugh about it because it was always something about ego. I think he would laugh almost like people that are afraid to face their bullies in life. You could be sitting in a class at school and you have this guy who’s always doing dirty jokes or being mean. Then he looks at you, you have two choices. You could either look at him and laugh because then he’s not going to touch you because you’re on his side. Or you can make a man out of yourself and don’t look at him and not acknowledge him.”
On WWE Chairman Vince McMahon's thoughts on the pranks:
“I think he was half encouraging it and half saying, ‘Hey guys, that’s not funny, you know?’ I think it wasn’t the way maybe to approach it because the Bulldogs were saying, ‘Okay, he heard it. He laughed a little bit, but he didn’t fire us, so I think we could keep going.’ They got worse and worse. So when I stood up, the only guy who stood up to them, I think Vince realized that he screwed up, that he shouldn’t let it go that far.”
