At the Hidalgo, Texas WWE Live Event on September 21, 2013, multiple fan reports state that former Raw General Manager John Laurinaitis made an appearance during the show. The man who began “People Power” came out during the show in order to stop Big Show’s scheduled match, and then force him to sit ringside during the main event and inform “The Giant” that he would not be able to interfere in the main event.
Laurinaitis’ last television appearance was on the June 18 edition of Monday Night Raw in 2012, which was the day after he was fired after WWE’s No Way Out pay-per-view. “Johnny Ace” was fired after John Cena defeated Big Show in a steel cage match that put both Cena’s and Laurinaitis’ careers on the line.
