Various News – Owen Hart, Megan Morant, MITB, The Acclaimed, Rollins/Balor
On the latest episode of his “Oh You Didn’t Know” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Road Dogg explained WWF’s decision to include Owen Hart in the Nation Of Domination and why the storyline worked. He said,
“Perfect. It made perfect sense. It couldn’t have been any better if you asked me. He’s the perfect guy — I don’t think any other white dude could have made it work. That’s just the truth. I think Owen was the one guy who could.”
Megan Morant, who has been doing an incredible as the SmackDown backstage interviewer, will henceforth be hosting RAW Talk and Smackdown Lowdown. Morant will wrap up her current duties this week and switch to her new role. She will also host the new RAW sidecast on Twitch. Cathy Kelley will be the new SmackDown backstage interviewer.
Morant took to Twitter to react to her promotion. She wrote,
“BIG NEWS! This Friday will be my last week backstage on #SmackDown. I’m looking forward to being your new host of #RawTalk and #SDLD on @peacock. Studio hosting has been a dream of mine for years, and I can’t wait to get in there and work alongside @themattcamp every week! I hope you’ll tune in.”
