THE ORIGIN OF THE SPINAROONIE

It’s nice to get a prominent mention on the WWE Network, and I did popularize the term “spinaroonie” as describes Booker T’s signature breakdance move. 

But, full disclosure: Chris Jericho coined the word during a WCW.com internet broadcast. I pilfered it for TV. It’s just nice to be part of something that blew up so big.

Booker’s one of the all-time greats. I loved working with him and his brother Stevie Ray. Top men.

The spinaroonie stood the test of time. It’s an electric moment. "SPINAROONIE! SPINAROONIE! SPINAROONIE!" (More full disclosure: My delivery was a Jim Ross imitation. I only steal from the best.)
