Who Played ‘Doink’ On RAW Last Week?, Danielson News

» Doink the Clown was portrayed by WWE producer Steve Lombardi (a/k/a Brooklyn Brawler) on last Monday’s RAW. He took part in the eight-wrestler “Brady Bunch” themed tag match. It’s interesting to note that the official WWE website referenced Lombardi’s past personas in its write-up for the match, saying: “In the end, the “Santino Bunch” proved too strong for the “Regal Bunch,” despite the clever recruitment of Doink the Clown, a staple of the ’90s, who competed alongside such unlikely ring warriors as Brooklyn Brawler, Abe “Knuckleball” Schwartz and Kim Chee.”

» EVOLVE 4 takes place on July 23rd from the ACE Arena in Union City, NJ. The venue is named for the local indy that usually runs there. It holds 300 people and is said to be a nice and intimate place to see a show.

» Bryan Danielson asked to face Bobby Fish at the show. Danielson has been a fan of Fish’s work since they toured NOAH together. Danielson was originally supposed to be one of the three partners of the promotion, but that changed when he signed his WWE deal.

» EVOLVE booker Gabe Sapolsky commented on Danielson vs. Fish, stating the following: “Bryan Danielson has been looking for the chance to wrestle Bobby Fish for a long time now. They teamed together in NOAH, but never wrestled each other. Bryan felt they have great chemistry together and feels that he can have a tremendous match with Bobby. When Bryan tells you that, you don’t question it and you sign the match. Bobby was perfect on our end as he has really emerged on the first three EVOLVE events and gotten over great with our crowd.”
