Was Rikishi always the Plan
By Scott Keith on 15 October 2018
To be revealed as the one who ran over Austin? Did they have a plan when they did the run-over angle at SS? Were there any other options for the driver? Or was it just a situation where they just shot the angle and the explanation would be decided later?
The initial plan I've always heard was Billy Gunn but he was variously injured and in Austin's doghouse, so they pulled the plug on the idea and came up with Rikishi instead. Ultimately though it was always going to lead back to HHH no matter which way it went.
