Let’s start off with this Keith Lee and Vince McMahon story, how did that come into
play?
Well Keith Lee may be new to the main roster this year, but it wasn’t his first appearance
on WWE television at all
Similar to a lot of WWE superstars, Keith Lee first stepped into the WWE as a background
extra that was playing the role of a security guard
Technically speaking, Keith Lee’s first Monday Night Raw appearance was March 30,
2009.
Yes, Keith Lee was actually on screen during Monday night Raw well over 10 years ago
WWE still has the segment uploaded as well, it’s titled “Triple H and The McMahons
attack Legacy”
In this segment Triple H, Shane McMahon, and Vince McMahon all teamed up to take our Randy
Orton and the rest of Legacy
But before the McMahons could get to Randy Orton in the ring, they had to get through
Security
So what was Keith Lee’s role during this segment?
Keith Lee had the honor of getting punched by the chairman himself, Vince McMahon
Keith Lee recently explained the entire story and what led up to that moment during a new
WWE network special
He had this to say about that situation:
“Someone came up to me and was like if you’re getting punched by Vince McMahon, you need
to go down.
I’m like, hey no problem!
And I’m pretty sure that whoever that was played a joke on me because the moment that
the McMahons came down and Vince McMahon jawed me and when I say he jawed me, he JAWED me.”
“So I go down and he looks confused.
Of course!
Why would the 300-pound dude go down from one punch?
And when they were done with the others, it was like there was no way we’re done with
the big guy!
So they picked me up and I was like ‘What did I do to deserve this?!’”
So that’s interesting to hear about what was going on behind the scenes in that segment
They informed Keith Lee to go down from one punch from Vince McMahon, but according to
Keith Lee himself, Vince McMahon looked stunned when Lee fell to the floor after one punch,
looks like Vince was expecting to hit him a few times before he went down
Like Keith Lee also said, it didn’t end with just the punch, they also picked him
up and threw him into the barricade, something that he wasn’t really expecting, so that
also caught him by surprise there
Of course everything ended up working out for Keith Lee.
He went from being an extra that was being laid out by Vince McMahon to main eventing
Raw himself, so you can say things definitely went Keith Lee’s way following that punch
from Vince McMahon
—————————-
So we got some big news here that we all pretty much saw coming.
We’ve been hearing for months now that Charlotte Flair was filming several different projects,
so this news wasn’t so much of a surprise for her
But it is a surprise for Alexa Bliss.
There were rumors earlier this year that Alexa could seriously make an impact on Hollywood
if producers continued to notice her and it seems like someone finally went right ahead
and signed Alexa to a role
It’s not a real shocker for Alexa Bliss either, you look at her recent acting on WWE
television and you can tell she has the skillset for projects that are much bigger than just
WWE television
And it looks like we’ll finally see Alexa Bliss make her acting debut in this television
series
So what’s going on here?
How did this word get out?
Strangely enough, word leaked out thanks to D-Von Dudley’s comments during a fan’s
cameo video that he was doing
D-Von had this to say during that specific cameo:
“I’m out here in L.A. helping produce a show with Alexa Bliss and Charlotte.
It’s Punky Brewster, it’s an old 80’s show here in America that we basically used
to watch as a kid and it’s coming back like everything else in the 80’s.
So, now I’m out here producing and helping and choreographing just like I do in WWE right
now.”
So D-Von just slipped that out during that cameo like it was nothing, but that’s pretty
big news that no one really knew about
Sure, the Punky Brewster reboot was announced earlier this year, but at no time did they
announce the casting of Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair
So it’s a bit confusing, are Alexa Bliss and Charlotte just helping with the production
of the show?
It doesn’t seem like it, the way D-Von spoke made it seem like Alexa and Charlotte will
be actual characters during the episode
Is it a one time thing? will they be reoccurring characters?
We don’t know, it’s a way too early to tell, but telling by Alexa and Charlotte’s
busy schedules, it’s likely going to be a one episode sort of thing
But either way this is some really exciting news.
We’ve been discussing for a while now how interesting it would be for Alexa Bliss to
take her acting outside of the WWE and it appears that we’re finally going to see
that here with this episode
Alexa’s acting is amazing, but how will it translate to a television show, that’s
going to be interesting to see
I also hope that Charlotte and Alexa aren’t playing their WWE characters in the show,
like I said before, I just wanna see them portray a brand new character for the show
and just see how that goes
Either way this is big news for both Charlotte and Alexa Bliss.
All it takes is one little role like this to get you really noticed in Hollywood, so
who knows where their acting careers could go after this, so let’s hope it takes off
for the both of them
———————————
Big E finally returned to Smackdown recently with a new entire, new theme song, new entrance
graphics, and just a whole new makeover
He even brought back the chalk for his entrance.
This is really big, we know that WWE has big plans in mind for Big E and all the fans are
behind him as well, so this could turn out pretty amazing since all things seem to be
going perfectly for him
This also is the first time that Big E has been solo in a long time if you really think
about
Big E was called up to basically be the bodyguard for Dolph Ziggler and AJ Lee, then he was
with the New Day for the last 5 to 6 years, so he’s never really had an extended time
by himself on the main roster
So in a way, you can say that this is really his singles debut
He’s been tied down to other people throughout his entire main roster career, but this is
it, this is the real thing now, he’s finally on his own with big plans ahead
It’s even being reported that Big E may be the next number one contender for Sami
Zayn’s intercontinental championship
It previously looked like Daniel Bryan was in position to be the next contender, but
reports claim that WWE could go another direction and go with Big E instead
Then who knows what could happen from there, maybe Big E does pull of the big title win
It’ll be perfect for Big E! Glad they’re not just rushing him into the Universal Title
picture just to lose to Roman Reigns
Big E’s journey should definitely end with him being the Universal Title picture, but
have be a slow grind to get there
Maybe he wins the intercontinental championship, has a lot of big feuds and matches, and then
he can start turning his attention towards the Universal Title, it’ll be the perfect
story for him
But be on the lookout for Big E, huge things are on the way for him in the very near future
