WWE officials were impressed with Billy Gunn and his interactions with Shawn Michaels on the 1,000th RAW and the belief is he’ll receive at least one match on a future televised show. They were also impressed with his look. Meanwhile, many backstage feel Sean “X-Pac” Waltman didn’t appear in great shape on the milestone episode so it is unlikely that he’ll be brought back for a match.

Some people were surprised that with WWE’s TV-PG directive and Linda McMahon running for United States Senate, officials had no problem having Waltman appear on television despite his involvement with a sex tape years ago. Some people backstage were also joking about how friendly Gunn was with everyone considering that he challenged Triple H and Shawn Michaels to a “shoot” fight years ago.

    I said the same thing about Gunn that night. I even jokingly suggested he and Ziggler become a tag team!

      Agreed! Lol. Ziggler looks like he could be Billy Gunn’s son. Or maybe Ric Flair’s. Lmao.

    “Some people were surprised that with WWE’s TV-PG directive and Linda McMahon running for United States Senate, officials had no problem having Waltman appear on television despite his involvement with a sex tape years ago.”

    That statement right there is the perfect explanation for WWE’s hypocracy as of late. I gotta be honest here. If Linda McMahon was running for office in my state, I would NOT vote for her just because of bullshit like this. Just goes to show how hypocritical the world of politics is. How different (and better) would the WWE product be right now if Vince didn’t have to worry about how things would affect Linda’s campaign? Kind of pisses me off but it is what it is.
