WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long recently appeared on Mike Chioda's "Monday Mailbag" podcast to discuss a variety of topics such as where he got the dance he used to do during his time in the company.
Teddy Long said:
“I got that little dance from my grandson. We bought him this walker when he was about three or four years old. But anyway, he's trying to learn how to walk. So we put him in there and everytime we would put him in that walker, all he started doing was going up and down like that. So I started doing it on TV. I would come back home and I told him, I said, 'Look, look, I'm doing your dance.' So one night I got ready to walk out and Vince stands up and he yells at me, 'Hey, do that dance, do that dance', and I've been doing it ever since.”
Teddy Long also discussed the origins of his "Holla, Holla, Holla" catchphrase.
Teddy Long said:
“I had this big laboratory dog, a big lab I had and his name was Boss. Every time he got in the way or something, I’m like, ‘Come on, player. Move out of the way.’ Then one night I was looking at Dave Chappelle and there was some guy on there, and he just was going crazy with holla, holla, holla, holla, holla, and it was just so hilarious, so I just started saying it and it took off.”
