Otis Recalls Being Speared by Security As a Kid at a WWE Show, Wants to Cash in Money in the Bank on Tag Titles

WWE Superstar Otis recently spoke with Digital Spy about what his plans are if he wins Money in the Bank this Sunday. Otis also shared a story from his childhood, according to Otis, while at a WWE show he was speared by security.

Otis was a 200 pound fifth grader at the time and was running to barrier to go see and possibly give Trish Stratus a high-five when a security guard tackled him to the ground, not realizing he was just a kid.

Otis on on getting speared by WWE security:

“It hurt, every bit of it hurt. I was a 200-pound fifth grader – I looked like a man almost.”

Otis on what happened afterwards:

“So yeah I made a sacrifice, got speared, but after that spear from the guard we got first row tickets. So it all happened for a reason.”

Otis on if he has told Trish Stratus the story:

“I’ve never told Trish that story in person. It’s hard for me to talk to her as a lady I’ve watched for years in the Sports Entertainment world. It would be a good way for me to express… you know, without really talking to her in person.”

Otis on what he plans to do if he wins Money in the Bank:

“If I get the briefcase, we’re challenging for the Tag Team titles. I don’t think there’s a rule of what titles to challenge for, so we’re going to challenge for the Tag Team titles, cash it in and that’s what’s going to happen… if I can get up that ladder. I’m a little scared of heights. And I hope that ladder’s going to be sturdy enough to carry my weight.”
