Kevin Dunn thought it'd be a great idea to pull Jim Ross from commentary, Rob Van Dam

0:12.5

apparently wasn't very happy in WWE, even internally everybody thought WWE, CW sucked,

0:19.8

and very sadly in January 2007, bam bam big a low past away.

0:24.4

Seriously too, if you have never seen that guy work and you have never seen that guy wrestle,

0:28.1

make sure you change it right now because he is flipping huge and yet he was able to move around

0:33.5

like a cat. That is the lay of the hand as we do sit down with the Royal Rumble 2007 and

0:37.4

the funniest thing I read when I was doing my research, it's just all these reports that said,

Hardy's versus Edge and Christian or the Hardy's versus the Dudleys and just to be honest with you,
