Stevie Ray on How He Didn’t Want to Read His Speech for the WWE Hall of Fame

– During a recent interview with Wrestling Then and Now, WWE Hall of Famer Stevie Ray discussed getting the call for his WWE Hall of Fame induction along with Booker T for Harlem Heat. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):

“I was having a very bad day that day. … I said, ‘I don’t read speeches. Speeches are in my head. I wrote it myself.’ Everything was in my head. I didn’t want to sound like I’m reading. I never liked speeches where people sound like they’re reading, or it’s written down word-for-word to make a point.”

Harlem Heat were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as part of the Class of 2019 inductees.
