WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long was on a recent episode of
The Wrestling Inc. Daily.
During the interview, Wrestling Inc. Managing Editor Nick Hausman asked Long if he’s had the opportunity to check out fellow former WWE General Manager Vickie Guerrero in AEW.
“Well, I saw her coming out just one time [managing Nyla Rose],” said Long. “I don’t really get the chance to watch much AEW. They told me… I got word that I was too old to be over there [laughs]. If you take a look at that [AEW product], I don’t know how they could say that. But I’m just saying what I’m saying.”
