JTG, formerly of the popular tag team Cryme Tyme along with Shad Gaspard, revealed he had been struggling from a creative standpoint and wanted to do more to get himself further up the ladder in WWE.
He also revealed some very special words of advice that came from a legendary figure in WWE. None other than the late, great Pat Patterson.
JTG would take Pat Patterson’s words to heart, and began working more on the microphone during this stint on the black & gold brand. This was enough, at the very least, to get himself noticed by WWE Chariman Vince McMahon.
Pat Patterson sadly passed away in December 2020
The first ever Intercontinental Champion in WWE, Patterson forged himself an unmistakable legacy in the wrestling industry, before his death last year at the age of 79.
An influential figure behind the scenes in WWE, Patterson would spend the latter years of his career as a Creative Consultant and Producer with the company.
He was also essential in the processes behind NXT and, as JTG highlighted above, often passed his wisdom along to up and coming WWE stars.
