mobanmarket– WWE ran two segments during commercial breaks at Tuesday’s WWE SmackDown tapings from Evansville, Indiana.
The first involved WWE Hall of Famer Jerry “The King” Lawler, who came out and interrupted a post-match promo by Jack Swagger. Lawler, who got a huge pop from the crowd, hit the ring, knocked Swagger down and nailed him with his trademark second rope first drop.
Later in the evening, while David Otunga was in the ring after his match, Triple H’s music played and he came out and Pedigreed Otunga. Booker T then attacked Otunga and gave him a Spin-a-rooni, which got the crowd very fired up, based on live reports from fans who were in attendance.
