Headbangers Thought Their 2016 Smackdown Return Was A Joke At First

Former WWF Tag Team Champions The Headbangers spoke to Chris Van Vliet of WSVN-TV recently. You can see highlights below and the full interview above. 

They originally thought getting the call to return to SmackDown in 2016 was a joke:

Mosh: "I actually got a text from Road Dogg and I thought it was a joke. So the text came from him and I actually called him back and I was like 'Brian?' I needed to confirm it was him and it was him, it was Road Dogg. It was supposed to be the week before in Connecticut but since we aren't full time, we needed to get blood work done and there wasn't enough time to get the blood work done. He said 'We can't do it now, so we're going to try for next week. We can keep the storyline open I hope.' And I just went 'Well thanks for thinking of us, because it's probably not going to happen.' Then literally the next Friday, the Friday before we were on, he called me and said 'Nope, we're on. Travel will be contacting you in the next 10 minutes and we will see you guys Tuesday night in Dallas.'"

 

They don't think they deserve a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame:

Mosh: "No, I honestly don't think we should. We had a great run, yeah we were there for a long time and we had two title reigns one as WWF tag champs and one as NWA world tag champs but we didn't do that much. There are other teams out there who I think are more deserving than we are at this point."
