JBL wanted to make a reference to Impact Wrestling during a 2022 episode of WWE RAW
During the Stories With Brisco And Bradshaw” podcast, JBL talked about the poker game from WWE RAW on December 5th 2022. JBL noted that he wanted to make a reference to the Impact Wrestling faction Aces and Eights (which Luke Gallows was a part of) during the segment…
“When we’re dealing the cards and we’re doing the last thing, it occurred to me. I wanted to have Luke Gallows have aces and eights for his hand and not say anything about it. Just throw it down. I didn’t have a chance to clear [it with WWE]. I don’t know if that would’ve been a problem or not, but I just thought about that as soon as we’re doing the last scene. I thought, ‘Damn it, I missed something there.'” (quote courtesy of WrestlingInc.com)
