When he was wrestling in Tennessee he cut a promo and at the end of it he said "a shout out to OJ Simpson.....keep up the good work" right after what happened.

Tommy Dreamer was on Sirius XM and he was telling old ECW stories today.
He said that New Jack would use that staple gun in matches, asking people for money so he could staple it to an opponents forehead, crotch, back, etc. The backyard wrestling groups saw this and thought it was super extreme/cool and started doing it.
What they didn't know was that New Jack kept a couple staples in the chamber and fired them off before the match.
When he would "staple" the money he was actually taking gum out of his mouth and sticking it to the money on the opponent (no staples used).
When he heard about the backyard feds actually using staples he said "Tommy, can you believe the stupid mfer's marking out and using REAL staples?"
