Road Dogg recently sat down with WrestleZone, where he gave high praise to The Gunn Club.
âTheyâre really good. Theyâre learning how to work. Itâs not to get Uncle Dave to give them a five star match, itâs to be entertaining. Itâs to entertain people. If you ask me, thatâs the name of the game. If there was money in wrestling, Tony Khan wouldnât have had to buy Ring Of Honor back. It would have never gone out of business, because they had great wrestling. But, people wanna be entertained too. You gotta give them a little glitz and glamour. You gotta give them a little carny."
Road Dogg continued:
âPeople wanna be entertained. Jamie Dundee said one time âThere ainât a dime in wrestling.â I almost believe that now. [Thereâs] very few just really good wrestlers. What, you can count five or ten tops? But the ones you know that are most famous were horrible in the ring. We can go down the list. I say horrible, I didnât mean that as everything is hyperbole these days. They just werenât great workers. They had something other than that that people grabbed on to. They wanted emotional investment into this character, into this talent, into this guy. I have to be emotionally invested in him. If Iâm not, it doesnât count. None of it matters, wins, losses, it doesnât matter. If you donât make an emotional attachment to the viewing audience or the live event attendee, you may as well pack it up.â
