7 Things We've Learnt From WWE Network's Tables For 3

Whilst it certainly isn't perfect, the amount of interesting content on the WWE Network can't be denied. Whether it is delving into pay-per-views from the past of watching the countless superstar documentaries, for any WWE/F or WCW fan it is a must. Funnily enough however, one of the most fascinating shows on the network doesn't involve any actual wrestling, and there isn't a ring to be seen. Table for 3 is exactly what the title suggest. Three performers sit down for a meal and a chat about whatever springs up. To call the show refreshing would be an understatement; it is a genuine opportunity to view superstars in a different light. Allowing them to talk naturally and candidly seems like a much more powerful way to endear them to an audience, rather than the often-forced dialogue on the shows. Eight episodes have surfaced so far. We've seen 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper, 'Mean' Gene Okerlund and Paul Orndorff discuss the old days, Kofi Kingston, Big E and Xavier Woods chat about the evolution of the New Day, Kevin Owens, Cesaro and Dean Ambrose spin the yarn of toiling on the indies and Vader, DDP and Sting continue the burial of WCW, among others. But what have we learnt from watching? Here are seven new things that have come to light.

7. Paul Orndorff Bailed Roddy Piper Out Of Jail

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2AwFAPtjmk Maybe it is my age, but I felt the first episode was one of the weakest. Featuring 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper, 'Mean' Gene Okerlund and 'Mr Wonderful' Paul Orndorff, it is a nostalgia-laden trip back to the old days, before the internet ripped everything open and protecting the business was more important than making rational decisions. The episode isn't helped by the fact that Okerlund seemingly finds it impossible to speak in what would be considered a natural voice, unless his natural voice is to sound like a game show host. Most of the episode is spent talking about ribs, including Orndorff getting particularly annoyed about padlocks covering a new bag. One road story takes centre stage however. Piper tells a story about an evening in a Mexican restaurant, where he drank six bottles of tequila with Bob Orton and Don Muraco. As they were driving, they somehow managed to get themselves stuck on the railway tracks. Don't drive drunk kids. Of course, things take a turn for the worse as a train approaches them, something Okerlund reiterates in his utterly preposterous voice. The train misses them, and the trio report the car stolen. Piper got arrested (for vagrancy, no less), and found himself in jail. He remarks that nobody would bail him, at which point Orndorff pipes up in his equally ridiculous voices. Orndorff bailed Piper out of jail.
