And unfortunately they never put us in the Hall of Fame, which I was bitter about for many years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He later added:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd now AEW is coming to Montreal honoring the Rougeau family worldwide. That\u2019s such a weight off my shoulder and when I talked to Raymond about it I saw the sparkle in his eye.
