Former WWE star Stevie Richards has revealed that he views old Right To Censor pal Ivory as "the original Karen" in retrospect.

Richards, who is currently recovering from surgery that meant he needed to learn how to walk again, told Chris Van Vliet's 'Insight' show that he would've been happy to step aside so Ivory could become the new leader of RTC.

That wouldn't have bothered Stevie one bit, because he understood the value she brought to the table as part of the faction. In fact, at points, Ivory was the most important member of Right To Censor, and Richards thinks fans back at the turn of the new millennium would've got a kick out of seeing her "bossing these big guys around".

Ivory still got to show off some of her tyrannical traits regardless, and that's why Richards viewed her as "the original Karen". She definitely had those, 'I want to speak to your manager' vibes when addressing other women during promos.

Overall, Stevie says he enjoyed the RTC experiment. It also felt good to have a gimmick that'd be identifiably "his" forever. Basically, when fans think of the faction, they think of him too.
