WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long recently appeared on The Wrestling Time Machine to speak about a variety of topics such as returning to the WWE on the 30th Anniversary episode of Monday Night RAW.
Teddy Long said:
“It's always great to go back to the WWE, you know, that's my home. Okay, I'll put it like that. Just to be able to see some of the guys that I had the chance to work with and see they're still around. I had a chance to talk to Taker, seeing Triple H and all those guys. You know, a lot of it reminded me so much of the Attitude Era. A lot of segments that they did last night was kind of like the Attitude Era. So I mean, I really enjoyed myself. I sat down, me and Ron Simmons and JBL, and we watched all the matches, and we just had a great time man.”
Teddy Long also spoke about having a conversation with Sami Zayn about how he has what it takes to be the next big Superstar in the WWE if the company pushes him right.
Teddy Long said:
“I pulled Sami to the side last night and I told him. I said, 'brother, you got it. You got it.' I said, 'you got it.' I said "I ain't blowing smoke up your ass.' I said I don't do this. If I pull you off and tell you something, I'm telling you because I see it...I said, 'you're just real' and that makes it all the better when you're real and I told him those words last night. Sami Zayn is gonna be the next big Superstar if they push him right.”
