Celebrating 80 Years of the Rougeau Wrestling Dynasty
“Daddy Magic” Matt Menard is in the ring to introduce the Fabulous Rougeaus.
Raymond and Jacques Rougeau come out and they cut promos, mostly in French which I do not speak, but Ray’s is obviously nice and friendly while Jacques is more brusque and talks a lot about “le hateurs.” Eventually he leads the crowd in holding their phones to the sky in memory of his dad and so on–
Enter Rocky Romero.
He steps to the Fabulous Rougeaus and says the only family that matters in wrestling is the Don Callis Family but Jacques hauls off on him and holds him in place for a kick to the gut from Ray before he and Menard send Romero packing over the ropes and to the floor!
