Original Plans For No Mercy Revealed, Boogeyman's Return, & More
At No Mercy last Sunday, WWE had plans to air a segment featuring Charlie Haas impersonating Hornswoggle late in the show, but it was cut due to time constraints. It was cut because they didn't want the segment to potentially cut off any time from the ladder match between Shawn Michaels and Chris Jericho. Additionally, Haas' impersonation of "Rowdy" Roddy Piper was relegated to dark match duty the next night on Raw, perhaps as to not take attention from the actual Piper being announced as a choice for Santino Marella's Intercontinental Championship match at Cyber Sunday. Haas lost to Dolph Ziggler in the dark match.
In case you missed this week's edition of ECW on Sci Fi, you can see the vignette promoting the return of The Boogeyman at WWE.com. The vignette is similar to the initial vignettes promoting his debut in 2005 that showed a closed door.
Bret Hart's appearance on the Opie & Anthony Show today will be replayed on Sirius 197 and XM 202 at 3PM and 7:30PM ET.
