10 Things We Learned From Damien Sandow On Chris Jericho's Podcast
2. Curtis Axel Shaved Off His Hogan Moustache In An Airport Bathroom
During Sandow and Curtis Axel's run as The Meta Powers they would dress up as Macho Man Randy Savage and Hulk Hogan respectively in a comedic parody that had audiences smiling as much as it did shaking their heads.
Pro Wrestling Insider felt this was the final coffin for Sandow and that the WWE saw him as light relief and nothing more. Mike Johnson wrote in despair that "the audience tried to tell them that they wanted to see him in a better role but were ignored".
This run began in May 2015 and lasted until July 24th that same year when the company severed all ties with Hulk Hogan due to the ongoing controversy surrounding the former wrestler. This also heralded the end for The Meta Powers. Jericho laughs at the memory of being told that Curtis Axel was so relieved by this news that when he was told he no longer had to do the gimmick in an airport he immediately went to the bathroom and shaved off his moustache in relief!
