Johnny Knoxville Hasn’t Asked ‘Jackass’ Cohorts For Any Advice Ahead Of Royal Rumble
Johnny Knoxville hasn’t asked any of his Jackass cohorts for any advice regarding taking bumps from professional wrestlers.
Johnny Knoxville entering the 2022 Royal Rumble is not the first time Jackass and WWE have crossed over. In the summer of 2007, Jackass was slated to have a major role in that year’s SummerSlam, and in the build-up to that event, Steve-O received a beating by Umaga. Ultimately, the SummerSlam idea was scrapped but now, Johnny Knoxville would at least have a source to ask for advice regarding how to take a beating from a wrestler.
Speaking with The Wrap, Johnny revealed that he hasn’t asked them for a single thing and it’s because they got beaten up by Umaga and Knoxville is looking to win.
“I haven’t asked them a single thing! I’m not taking advice from those two after they got destroyed by Umaga. It was hilarious, though. Umaga did his finish to Steve-O, and he just gets up and starts giggling. So Umaga gets back in there, and it’s just: slam after slam after slam. He got a concussion from all that, but he’s very happy with the footage.”
Johnny Knoxville has said in a recent interview that he will be bringing “friends” to the Royal Rumble with him. Learn more about that here.
We will have live coverage of the WWE Royal Rumble on Saturday, January 29 at 7 p.m. eastern time.
