One fan particularly addressing WWE said, “And they got it from Shawn Michaels doing it in Canada with little person Bret Hart or WWE and Gilberg or NWO and the 4 Horsemen. It’s not something new.”
Tazz replied to this saying, “And Chris Candido came out dressed like me to my music and that was probably mid 90s… obviously it’s not nothing new, but it was just done so recently. I would expect more from a company with 76,000 writers. 🤷🏽♂️”

Tazz indirectly took a dig at WWE over the Kevin Owens segment. We have seen these types of segments for a long time in pro-wrestling.
Tazz, who once was a commentator in WWE, expected more out of this feud. He took a dig at WWE writers to write something new instead of giving similar segments.
