Blue Meanie Remembers New Jack Popping The Locker Room In Canada
As we've already noted, New Jack is pretty much synonymous with the Land of Extreme, spending six years within Paul Heyman's hardcore company and forging many brutal/disturbing moments along the way.
It wasn't all staple guns and busting open colleagues for fun when it came to his time in ECW, though, as revealed by one-time co-worker The Blue Meanie in the wake of his sudden passing. In a tweet from the former Blue World Order member, a particularly unexpected story of New Jack strutting into the locker room during a Canadian ECW show was unleashed onto the world.
Those already present in the room at the time of his entrance were said to be shocked that the star was able to get across the notoriously strict border without any trouble. Without skipping a beat, New jack retorted with the line, "Man the water was COOOOLD!" According to Meanie, the room popped and a night of hellacious violence for the entertainment of those in attendance likely ensued.
