Lance Storm, who is a trainer at OVW, has been warning the talent of what to expect when they are called up to the main roster. Storm had said that if they are called up to the SmackDown brand, to expect more hazing, as the lockerroom is more traditional, and to steer clear of Bradshaw and Hardcore Holly in particular.
OVW talent Johnny Jeter, made a comment about how he doesn’t like how he is relegated as a Tag Team wrestler. JBL and Holly took exception to this, and called ‘Wrestling Court’, which is a way for the wrestlers to deal with minor problems without dealing with management, and is often very humorous. JBL, who is normally the judge of ‘Wrestling Court’ sentenced Jeter to fetch him beers, and study tapes of Tag Team matches.
Storm advised Jeter to ignore the ruling of ‘Wrestling Court’ and not to waste his time, as the SD roster is 2nd rate, and more concerned with backstage antics then ratings. This has put a lot of heat between Storm and Holly/JBL, to the point were Holly told Storm to Fuck Off during WrestleMania weekend, and JBL cut a promo on him in front of everyone else, challenging Storm. Storm stayed calm, and didn’t start anything. Some saw it has Storm wussing out, others saw it as JBL being a bully.
