Ricardo Rodriguez is the star of the latest RF Video shoot interview, which
is on DVD now. He discusses John Cena, CM Punk, Alberto Del Rio, his complaints
with WWE, backstage politics and more. He also talks about the incident that led
to Del Rio being fired by WWE this past summer.
He also talks about the differences between management, first with Vince
McMahon in control, then Triple H. He said: “I saw the transition
between Vince’s regime and Hunter’s regime. We all saw that coming. We saw how
the older guys that had been there before just got pushed back. Sheamus, Wade
Barrett, del Rio – and granted, most of us were Laurenaitis boys. We were his
projects. At that time we were the last of the people that, if we had issues, we
would speak about it. Now, if you speak up, it’s ‘oh you’re complaining? OK,
you’re off the house shows.’ If you’re not one of his little toys, you don’t
really matter. I love the Wyatt’s, but how many times do you have to see them on
RAW? Same with The Shield; you don’t have to see them every other segment! You
still have 40 other guys on the roster that are waiting for a
spot.”
