JTG wants “Money Money, Yeah Yeah!”
And he’s selling a new book to make it.
Along with the late Shad Gaspard, JTG, real name Jayson Anthony Paul, was part of the Cryme Tyme tag-team in WWE from 2006-2007 and again from 2008-2010. The duo used the aforementioned “Money Money, Yeah Yeah!” catchphrase during their initial persona-establishing promos, which WWE compared to characters from Saturday Night Live.
From WWE.com:
Last week on RAW, Cryme Tyme was introduced to the RAW audience. In an effort to humor and entertain our fans, the tag team known as Cryme Tyme will parody racial stereotypes.
Shad Gaspard and JTG do outlandish, outrageous “stunts” to ready themselves for tag team action on RAW. This attempt at Saturday Night Live-like humor is bound to entertain audiences of all ethnic derivations.
We hope you enjoy the weekly adventures of Cryme Tyme.
The pro wrestling veteran has released a new book called “DAMN! Why Do You Want to Be a Wrestler? – The Real Playbook for Aspiring Wrestlers, Indie Hustlers, and the Dreamers.”
In the book, JTG vows to “pull back the curtain on the hustle of independent pro wrestling” and share “honest stories from his career in WWE, OVW and beyond.”
Featured below are some recent content releases shared by JTG to promote the new project:
