Otis On Why He Created The Caterpillar, Talking To Scotty 2 Hotty About Using It In WWE
Otis explains the origin of the Caterpillar move that he’s using in WWE.
During an interview with Digital Spy, Otis revealed that he first used the Caterpillar, which is essentially the worm dance move, when he was a child at a dance party. Otis said no girl wanted to dance with him and he made the move in an effort to draw attention towards him.
“It was at a dance party at Elementary School. No girls would dance with me so I had to get the crowd over with my moves. I started shaking my hips and getting going and I waited till everybody was watching – you know, it was a big circle dance, everybody’s looking in there and checking you out. And that’s when I dropped. Bam! It’s a little bit stiffer on the floor than in the ring. And I got love from doing that move, so I just kept doing it. So now every wedding I get sore ribs the day after,” Otis said.
Otis also spoke about the time he spoke with Scotty 2 Hotty, who used the worm when he was in WWE, about using the Caterpillar.
“I told (Scotty) this move means a lot to me and I know you’re the king of The Worm but I want to continue this and we’ll call it The Caterpillar,” Otis said.
Now, Otis will look to become Mr. Money In The Bank as he will participate in the ladder match taking place on May 10 at WWE Headquarters. Fightful will have live coverage of the event.
