Guest Eagan469 Report post Posted July 3, 2003 June 26, 2003 Hosts: Joshy Mathews and Dr. Tom Prichard with Droz WWE Byte This review Dr. Tom feels that when Randy Orton came out and held his own with Mick Foley when he promo'd on him during Raw, he established himself as a complete superstar. Droz agrees that the second-generation superstar is displaying tremendous potential and so Droz looks forward to seeing what Orton will have to offer us as he grows through his early twenties. Discussing for a bit the Real Sports interview that HBO conducted with Vince McMahon, Droz says that he agrees with what Vince told them in that responsibility has to fall upon the individuals' shoulders when deciding how to lead one's life. Dr. Tom also feels that the whole piece was a "rib," as he details in his latest online article on WWE.com. Rico gets on the phone to talk about his new character change from stylist, to 3 Minute Warner, and now to his current phase as a whatever that thing is. Rico explains that there are many layers to Rico and we will never know which level will be unfolded or when. He prefers wrestling to managing, citing his work as an American Gladiator to show what he really likes. He began his wrestling career by trying to get someone else into wrestling but he instead was the one that ended up getting called to join the WWF training camp being run at the time by Dory Funk Jr. Competing in Ohio Valley Wrestling after the WWF requested him to be a developmental wrestler for them, he then suffered an injury while in the Jim Cornette training facility. Although the doctors told him that he would be out for at least a year, he was able to come back in six months. From then he was called up to be Billy and Chuck's stylist in the WWE big leagues and the rest is history. Speaking of Billy, Rico wishes Mr. Ass the best of luck as he embarks on his return. Jackie Gayda calls in, joining her partner in fashion crime. Although she is back in WWE as Rico's manager, she still "gets the best of both worlds," she says, as she is still training in OVW, getting ring time and learning the trade. Although Jackie has not kept in touch with former bumpin' buddy Jake from Tough Enough, she does still correspond with Annie a small bit every now and then. Jackie has no doubt that she would have made it to WWE even if it weren't for Tough Enough. She feels that she had enough will and desire and a glimpse of understanding of wrestling that would have enabled her to enter WWE regardless how opportunities would have presented themselves. "It may have been a different road, maybe a little longer, but ultimately I would have made it to WWE," she says confidently. Jackie reports that she is actually still with her boyfriend whom she was dating during her Tough Enough stint. She thinks Linda Miles, now known as Shaniqua, is doing great on Smackdown; Jackie feels that Shaniqua completes the Basham brothers. And that completes Jackie's interview as she goes and makes way for Chris Benoit to join the broadcast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
