On the latest episode of the “Extreme Life of Matt Hardy” podcast, the AEW star discussed a wide range of topics.
During it, the former WWE star recalled WWE hosting the Great Balls of Fire event in 2017, named after the song made famous by Jerry Lee Lewis.
Backstage reaction to the name:
“I think the general consensus among the talent was, ‘huh?’ Whenever they heard Great Balls of Fire was the name of the event. It is what it is.”
Vince McMahon liking the name:
“I mean, it’s gotta be, he’s a big Jerry Lee Lewis fan. Apparently. Like, not joking. I’m pretty sure he likes that song. He loves that song.”
