Gabe Sapolsky took to social media and wrote about the angle, “I’ll return to Twitter for a moment to comment on this. I booked this angle with Bob Saget, Jon Moxley, YAMATO and BxB Hulk thinking it would be a big break for DGUSA. We’d get all these characters over on “Strange Days With Bob Saget.” Unfortunately, the show never gained any traction. In fact, it was cut from an hour episode to 30 minutes. However, looking back it is crazy and cool that this happened. I also got the advice Bob gave us that he learned from Rodney Dangerfield about trying to make it “Be like a tank.” I’ve repeated it many times over the years, especially during my hardest times. Thank you, Bob Saget. #RIPBobSaget”
