Robert Stone spoke with Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp on various topics, including being part of the Edge attack segment on an episode of RAW in 2006.
Stone said, “I’ll say this, I was selling the eye poke because it really hurt. I do remember that and I do remember cars driving by also, and the producers that were around the cars as we were filming go like, ‘No, you could pass.’ As, like, this guy’s getting beaten on the road. I told this story at another interview I did, but I was in a Sunday Night Heat match. I believe it was me and I believe Darren Young against the Heartthrobs. If you remember, Romeo Roselli. That was a step-up match and they pulled me from that match because they needed the smallest extra that was there to do this. I remember I was upset at the time because I wanted a match. I wanted to be able to put on my gear and get oiled up and it was in Continental Airlines, which is my home arena. So I wanted to wrestle there. But this ended up being way more memorable, obviously. We’re talking about it now and it was on an episode of one, it was one of RAW’s Greatest Moments on like one of their episodes. I can’t remember the year. It was wild to just to think that that had actually happened. But I think my size and build just kind of fit what they needed, you know?”
