Honky Tonk Man posted the following announcement on his site in which he tease a big reveal as to why he is not attending this Monday's "Old School" RAW:
"HTM will tell all on
www.honkytonkman.net why he and WWE could not come to terms. A story no one wants to miss. We will expose the behind scenes of the things that really happened with e-mails to prove it. You will get an inside look into the way WWE deals with some people. $350 grand to someone for 2 mins. who never worked in pro wrestling but yet a 4 hr. plane ride in a shitty middle seat to a legend. We will have it all."
HTM was due to appear at this Monday's "Old School" RAW but pulled out citing that no agreement had been reached:
"HTM and WWE could not come to terms for the Old School RAW show upcoming. HTM informed WWE yesterday that he no longer had a desire to participate on the event."
