Backstage news on Rikishi's speech, Alundra Blayze's Hall of Fame induction, more
We had reported earlier about Rikishi snubbing Scotty 2 Hotty and Brian Christopher (Grand Master Sexay) during his 2015 WWE Hall of Fame speech. The reason being some sort of dispute over an independent wrestling booking leading to Scotty complaining on Twitter last week. Wrestling Observer Newsletter also quoted that Rikishi made it clear that he didn’t want Scotty or Brian in person for the induction.
During the end of her Hall of Fame induction speech, Alundra Blayze pulled out her old WWE women’s title belt from a trash can, the same one she dumped it in during Monday Nitro years back. This is the main reason she was inducted by the WWE. The WWE officials were adamant that she pull her old belt out of the trash in order for her to get inducted this year.
