Kevin Kelly looks back on working with The Rock.
During his time in WWE working as a backstage interviewer during The Attitude Era, Kevin Kelly would find himself on the end of a verbal dressing down from The Rock on several occasions.
While speaking to Rewind, Recap, Relive, Kelly spoke about working with The Rock, recalling the first time The Rock was brought to a show by his father.
"It was always so much fun, Dwayne and I worked together in Florida when he was first getting started. It was only one time, but his dad, Rocky Johnson was wrestling down there. I was ring announcing, just getting my start, my career, and Dwayne came with his dad to a show. So when poor Rocky Johnson was getting beaten down in the main event, who comes out to make the save? His son, and we knew that he was going to get into wrestling. But none of us had any idea that he would go to the heights that he would become, and I would always joke with him and say, hey, you know, listen, I can get us back in that flea market there outside of Tampa. Just say the word because and we're there. I'm not so sure that this whole WWE thing is working out for you."
Kelly recently announced the upcoming debut of his new promotion. You can read more about that here.
