During his feud with John Cena, Edge and Gewirzt were involved in a segment with Cena’s father where Edge was supposed to ridicule him, creating sympathy for Cena’s babyface character. To their surprise, Cena’s father took his role rather seriously and continued to improvise his lines. The footage was unusable and McMahon ridiculed all involved. In order to use it they had to mute the footage and Edge cut an in-ring promo over it as it aired on RAW.
Gewirtz says out of all the great things he was a part of in WWE, he’s probably most proud of the lengthy program between Chris Jericho and Shawn Michaels. That program was only supposed to be two weeks long but ended up stretching from December of one year to the following year’s WrestleMania. That program was completely devoid of humour and consisted of all serious content, and he was very proud of the things they accomplished in that program.
That sums up this week’s episode of E&C’s Pod of Awesomeness. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya next week for another recap!
