Both these two appeared on WWE RAW in cameo rolls. Corbin was an EMT helping out Jason Jordan while Story was an "intern". I also wanted to use this spot to promote a podcast that is co-hosted by Scott Story. Are We Rolling is a mostly pro wrestling podcast with Scott Story & Kyle Olson. A few weeks ago I was a guest on their show. Click on the link for the show to check it out...and all their other shows.)
