WWE reunited with popular faction D-Generation X on Monday Night RAW in 2006 to feud with The McMahons.

With neither Vince nor Shane McMahon being regular wrestlers, the Spirit Squad often served as The McMahon's "lackeys" during the storyline, regularly facing DX on WWE television.

Jeter revealed that both WWE Hall of Famer's Triple H and Shawn Michaels went out of their way to get opinions from the Spirit Squad and were easy to work with:

"What if you got put in a match with DX and you're wrestling your idols? It's incredible and you'd think that these guys would have egos like 'oh my God, I'm just going to keep my mouth shut and put a match together.' But no, they went out of our way to solicit our feedback and help put a match together."

Jeter also pointed out that the Spirit Squad had a great relationship with Triple H and Shawn Michaels, often joking with them backstage:

"They were open to working with us and putting a match together. They were super cool, super funny. We kind of went back and forth joking with them a lot with them backstage."

#1 Johnny Jeter recalls a hilarious story about WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels and John Cena

Whilst discussing Spirit Squad's feud with D-Generation X, Jeter revealed that he used to ride with former WWE Champion John Cena and former WWE star Eugene.

This led to Jeter recalling a hilarious story involving Cena and Michaels with some bathroom humour:

"Cena and I went to the gym. I used to ride with him and Eugene. We went to the gym and afterwards they had pure proteins in the little thing. So I got a Pina Colada. I was like, 'Oh I haven't tried this flavour before, let me try it.' So I drank it andd Cena's like 'Oh man, that's going to ruin you.'"
"So we stopped at a gas station, Cena was on the phone and I went to the bathroom and I had diarrhea. I don't know why, don't ask me why but I took my phone and recorded the sounds of it. So, when I got back into the car, Cena was on the phone, I put it up to his ear and played it and he was like 'I got to go. I just heard something that changed my life.'"
"We get to TV and Shawn was eating a steak dinner from Texas Roadhouse. I got talked into by Cena, playing the sound for Shawn while he was eating. I played it, he started laughing and he just put his stuff down and was like 'I've lost my appetite.'"
