Spot In WWE WrestleMania 39 Match Was “A Little Bit” Different Than What Was Pitched

Otis talked about the Tower of Doom spot from the men’s tag team showcase match at WWE WrestleMania 39 during an appearance on the Out of Character podcast. He noted that there was a different spot pitched for it. 

“They wanted me to go up top there and I’m like, ‘Well, I’m a little scared of heights there.’ That’s why you’re only going to see the Vader Bomb from Otis. Braun is like, ‘Why can’t you do it?’ We’re trying to put my leg up in the little stubs. ‘Guys, I’m willing to do it and try it and willing to fail, but we shouldn’t do it at Wrestlemania.’ We switched it around a little bit. Putting [Ricochet] up top, Montez, make a sandwich.”

Otis’ tag team partner, Chad Gable also commented on the match, “That’s another testament to the different characters and dynamic to the guys in the match. No other match could pull something like that off because of the hosses we had as a base. Ricochet, who is able to pull off what he did to finish it off. Then the technicians in the middle doing the other crazy stuff. Where else are you going to find that? It was like a circus in a match.”
