So, we’re getting to 6 or 6:30 PM, and I start to wonder a little bit. I’m like, ‘Okay, it’s getting close to TV time here and I really can’t find Chris.’ So back then a lot of times the Flock would do one of two things. We would either, the show would start with us sitting in the front row, or we would walk down in the second or third match.
The way it was set up on the card, Benoit and I were supposed to be on at the end of the card right before the first hour before RAW came on we were supposed to go dark for our 9 o’clock slot. It’s like 7:15 PM now, and most of the guys get together at some point during the day and have an idea of what they’re doing.
I’m already dressed because I went to Perry Saturn and went, ‘Hey, are we going to walk down there the third or fourth match, or are we going out earlier?’ And Saturn said, ‘Let’s go out early tonight.’ Which means we walk out at 7:45 PM.
And at 7:15 PM I can’t find Benoit and I’ve got 30 minutes before I go out to the arena to sit there for an hour to wait on my match. And I get nervous now. I make my signs and everything. It’s like 7:40 PM and I’m about to lose it. Backstage, you’ve seen the videos. There’s a lot of space back there, and it’s easy to lose somebody. I can’t find Benoit, and Saturn asks, ‘Are you ready?’ And I’m like, ‘I have to find Chris before we go out’.
