Tommy Dreamer Shares His Thoughts On Watching The Dudley Boyz Be Inducted Into The WWE Hall Of Fame, And Talks L.U. Versus IMPACT

Tommy Dreamer speaks on a plethora of topics.

"The Innovator of Violence" Tommy Dreamer was front in center at the 2018 WWE Hall Of Fame ceremony in New Orleans to watch his good friends, the former ten-time WWE Tag Team Champions The Dudley Boyz accept their place amongst the greats in the history of WWE. While speaking with 'The Wrestling Estate'  to promote his 'House Of Hardcore 43' show which took place last week, Tommy Dreamer discussed the feeling of watching the guys who he considers to be his brothers be inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame.

“It was awesome. Bubba and D-Von are two of my closest friends. To see the first original ECW act to go in there was an honor. I was happy they went on first because as soon as their speech ended, I had to hop in a Lyft and produce the IMPACT show." He revealed. "You also talk about the insanity of the pro wrestling business-Bully Ray is under contract to Ring Of Honor, yet he was on WWE television on Friday and then wrestled for ROH on Saturday. WWE has done that as well if you remember when they pulled the Hardyz from my show and then it ended up working out.”

Tommy Dreamer was in New Orleans presenting his 'House Of Hardcore' event and as he stated he was also a producer for the IMPACT vs. Lucha Underground show that took place on the night of the WWE Hall Of Fame ceremony. Dreamer went on to discuss how he came into being a producer for the event.

"They didn’t know at that time how exactly to stream on Twitch, and since I was doing it anyway, they asked if I could have my people come in and do it. It worked out really, really well. Then they also aired a lot of content on their IMPACT show and they’ve been nice to give House of Hardcore credit, which is why I’ve been helping out there." He shared. "I’ve been friends with Scott D’Amore and Don Callis for a long time. They have a really hard task and they’ve kind of evoked my policy of no politics, no BS, just wrestling. When your friends ask for help, that’s what I always do.”

Tommy Dreamer founded 'House Of Hardcore' in 2012 and has been presenting monthly shows since then. 'House Of Hardcore' shows are streamed live on Twitch TV which is also the name of the top championship in the promotion; the House Of Hardcore 'Twitch Television Championship' that is currently being held by Willie Mack. Dreamer praised Willie Mack and spoke on the qualities that led him to the decision of making the "The Mack" his guy.

“Willie is amazing and has so many great qualities," he continued, "I don’t judge a book by its cover. If you look at Willie Mack, he doesn’t have the greatest body, but he’s trying. Willie Mack does have the athletic ability of Rob Van Dam meets Rey Mysterio and he has the charisma of Dusty Rhodes and Junkyard Dog when he’s performing. He just goes out there and kills. I couldn’t believe when he and Brian Cage were wrestling that he busted out the "Van Terminator". He just does so many things that I couldn’t possibly think a guy with a belly like him [can do], because he likes to drink his beer, that he could go out and do the stuff he does. I couldn’t be happier with him being the champion and representing my company because he truly is an unfound talent that now the world is getting to see just how good he is.”

 

Tommy Dreamer further dove into 'House Of Hardcore' 43 which aired on Twitch last week. To watch the event head over to the official 'House Of Hardcore' Twitch channel.
