Details on Scotty 2 Hotty wrestling at AEW
Added 2023-12-28 02:09:29 +0000 UTCScotty 2 Hotty made his AEW debut in Orlando at New Year's Smash prior to the show.
The AEW coach teamed with the Acclaimed and Daddy Ass to beat the Gunns, Matt Menard and Jake Hager. Though he's wrestled on the independents semi-regularly, it was his first AEW match. We're told that he's been considered for matches in the company in the past, and has been open to performing for them in addition to his coaching duties.
AEW has the rights to use the original Too Cool theme music, and utilized it for the appearance. Those we spoke to said that it was a part of the music library that AEW licensed to get access to the Hardy Boyz theme. Hardcore and Crash Holly's original theme was also included in that.
Yes. He did the worm.

Damn, I'd be pretty hyped about this if he hadn't been caught being transphobic at an indie show earlier this year.

2023-12-28 22:13:44 +0000 UTCI've been in attendance now for 2 surprise appearances by Scotty - the last one being NXT Halloween 2019 when Bronson Reed won the costume battle royal dressed as Rikishi. 😄

2023-12-28 02:33:49 +0000 UTCI remember in the early 2000's hearing Hardyz and both Holly's themes on random ad's. Always popped me when I heard them.

2023-12-28 02:15:29 +0000 UTCMan, I thought WWE would have that theme locked down. Especially since it feels like Rikishi is gonna show up on the road to Mania. Cool as hell tho for Scotty Dos Hottie

2023-12-28 02:13:39 +0000 UTCI’d really be curious to know the listing of songs in that music library and who it was licensed from
