WWE Hall of Famer “The Enforcer” Arn Anderson recently took to an episode of his ARN podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including Tony Schiavone.
Anderson said, “Give Tony his due. Tony was a great announcer, and to this day, he’s still a great announcer.”
He also talked about the Super Shockmaster.
“There’s no explaining that there. Nothing. You know, go back to the beginning, which may or may not have been Big Fred’s fault. Falling through the gimmick, it looked like there wasn’t enough rehearsal. Enough. Whatever prep you call it, whatever you want. Before that deal went down, you didn’t overcome something like that. And the more you push it, you know, it’s the same guy. Instead of giving the guys six months off and bringing him back with a totally different look and totally different everything. If you’re going to give him a chance, give him a chance. It’s not his fault. But once you fall, once you fall through the wall, buddy, and everybody turns it into a ha ha deal. You’re screwed. Six months off. New gimmick. Give him a chance.”
