On the December 5th episode of Monday Night RAW, John Bradshaw Layfield hosted the JBL Poker Invitational, featuring Superstars from the red brand. In the final moments of one game, Baron Corbin lined up a winning hand against Luke Gallows and Chad Gable before AJ Styles caught him cheating. Corbin and Styles began shoving each other, which eventually led to the six-man tag team match between The O.C. and Alpha Academy & Corbin.

While speaking on the Stories With Brisco & Bradshaw podcast, JBL discussed his missed opportunity with the poker segment on RAW. The WWE Hall of Famer had planned to include a reference to TNA’s Aces and Eights but failed to get it approved by WWE management. JBL said,

“When we’re dealing the cards and we’re doing the last thing, it occurred to me. I wanted to have Luke Gallows have aces and eights for his hand and not say anything about it. Just throw it down.”

“I didn’t have a chance to clear [it with WWE]. I don’t know if that would’ve been a problem or not, but I just thought about that as soon as we’re doing the last scene. I thought, ‘Damn it, I missed something there.’”
