Reasoning Behind Coachman Run-In At Unforgiven

Archive

At Unforgiven, Jonathan Coachman ran down during the Triple H/Randy Orton match for the World Title.

It was unclear during the PPV why Coach would run down in a ref’s outfit, and be approved as an official for the match.

Apparently there was a planned segment that would have shown Raw GM Eric Bischoff backstage yelling at Coach to put on a ref’s shirt and run to the ring. However, Bischoff had already left the building, thinking his role was over for the night as apparently no one told him of the title match spot.

It is unknown whether or not there is heat on Bischoff for the communications snafu, but it might impact Vince McMahon’s big announcement tonight on Raw.
