Wrestling fans will notice some “little Easter-eggs here and there” from those he has worked with throughout his career when checking out CM Punk’s “Ricky Rabies” character in the new “Heels” series on Starz.

“The Best in the World” made the promise when talking about the character and the show in a new interview with Bill Pritchard of WrestleZone.

Featured below is an excerpt from the interview where he touches on this topic.

“I showed up and saw that outfit and everything else and I was kinda given free rein to figure out who Ricky Rabies was, where he was from, and really what I was thrilled about was, I could get to do a little love letter, an homage to some people in my wrestling career that I shared locker rooms with and helped me out.

“The big one—I don’t even want to say who it is. I want people to watch this show and watch Ricky Rabies, and they’ll be able to figure it out. I peppered it in with little Easter eggs here and there, so if you’re a hardcore wrestling fan,” he noted, “you know what to look for. You’re going to be ‘tickled pink’ by Ricky Rabies.”
