Hardcore Holly shoot preview, maybe the most interesting thing he has ever done!

I always disliked Holly and was pleased to him released, but I must admit a shoot with him would be interesting. Kennedy looks like he will be in the line of fire and I imagine Lesnar will get a mentoin;)

RF Video recently conducted a shoot interview with former WWE wrestler Hardcore Holly and he holds nothing back while discussing his 15-year tenure in the company.

Perhaps the most notable portion of the interview concerns Holly's explanation for being let from World Wrestling Entertainment back in January. He has some choice words for a certain wrestler in the company to say the least — that person being Raw Superstar Mr. Kennedy. Holly believes Kennedy is responsible for his ultimate release from the company and is angry with him to this day, so much so that he issues a personal threat to him during the interview.

Courtesy of RFVideo.com, here is a synopsis of what you can expect to hear from Holly concerning his issue with Kennedy in the shoot interview:

"I got a call from Bob today when he was boarding his plane and he told me what he wanted to talk about on the shoot. He asked me point blank can he say what ever he wants and I told him that this is his day. This would be his platform to do what ever he wanted. He went off on a 5 minute promo on how he wants to beat the hell out of Ken Kennedy on the phone and told me about his major heat with him. This is not a work at all and on the interview, Bob goes into what happened to get these two once best friends into a bitter battle. You will hear right from the mouth of Bob, how Kennedy told Bob to go into his bag and get something out of it for himself. I do not want to get to graphic here because it makes the shoot. You have to watch this as soon as you can, as Bob sends a private message to Ken on this tape. I would not want to be in the shoes of Mr. Kennedy!!!"

Here is another synopsis on the subject, noting Holly making a threat "that is sure to get the WWE's attention":

"The highlight of this interview is Bob talking about his WWE release. How did someone once so close to the boss get released? Bob sends a clear message to a current WWE superstar and calls him out by name. What is this wrestler's culpability in Bob's firing? Bob will tell you a story that will shock even his biggest detractors. No names are protected and nobody is innocent as Bob makes a threat that is sure to get the WWE's attention. What happened between Bob and his former friend? You will hear about it all from the horse's mouth in this classic RF Video Shoot Interview."

Reportedly, Holly was caught stealing pain pills from another wrestler's bag this past summer, hence his sudden disappearance from television. He was immediately taken off the road, sent to a rehabilitation facility, and ultimately released.

Bob Holly was a talentless hack who was lucky to have a job for as long as he did. He should be thankful he was kept on the payroll as long as he was and not fired back in 1998 like he should have been after that horrible New Midnight Express stint.

Nothing but a roided up,boring bully.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Ha,I wonder when TNA will sign him?!

deanodrummer

He did a good dropkick.
That is all.

Handsome Bob

Ah good 'ol Sparkplug Holly, nothing shocked me more than when your lame ass got a world title programme against Brock Lesnar because, simply put, you were ****.

Didn't him sandbag people he wasn't fond of while working with them? Does anyone know what Kennedy did to incur such wrath?

Yep, the guy was hated by many young wrestlers, Orton has been very loud in his criticism of him.
Their is zilch chance of Tna signing him, I mean seriously what would this washed up bully bring to the company?

Is it true Undertaker saved his ass a few times? Why would they be close?

Holly and Taker were meant to be best mates, Taker was also very close to another backstage bully in JBL....:(

They're all close cos they were some of the longest serving guys there. Holly was there essentially since 1992, but his first couple of years, he was on a developmental contract. Taker since 1990, and Bradshaw since 1995.

Holly is also close friends with Billy Gunn. So don't be surprised if you see an Ass Plugg reunion in TNA either.

Rjd2

Was Benoit not part of that backstage clique? I am nearly certain him and JBL were very close.

ShawnRaven

Couldn't be sure.
Where's Meltzer's and Alvarez's disciples when we need 'em, eh?

Degag

They were all seen as (or at least thought themselves as) backstage enforcers/ Lockerroom Leaders.

Any truth to the story of a big bust up between Brock and Taker&Co over him trying to take over as lockerroom leader?
