WWE News: A recap of four WWE wrestlers appearing on NBC's "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien"

Dot Net Member Greg Scurria (a/k/a GTS1303) sent the following recap of "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien"
During the latest episodes of "Noches de Pasion con Senor O'Brian" (Conan O'Brien's Tela Novela), a sleazy disco owner propositions a beautiful young lady. When she turns him down, he threatens her with a broken bottle. Conando appears to save the day and punches the man onto a couch. The disco owner then called for his backup: El Legacy. Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase came out in black Legacy shirts and kinda weird, camo-looking pants. They lifted Conando by the arms (which was fairly impressive given how tall Conan is).
Cody and Ted both greeted him with "Buenos Noches." Conando then called for his backup, The Great Khali and Big Show. Khali came in through the door and didn't talk, but after Big Show crashed through a wall, he mouthed gibberish while a voice played talking really, really fast in Spanish. Show didn't hit his mark right and started moving his mouth before the tape played. Conando then threw the disco owner out the door (and like every bad guy in "Noches de Pasion," he was shown falling out of a hotel window and plummeting to his death).
Legacy attacked Khali and Show with Cody breaking a chair over Khali's back. Show threw Legacy towards the band, and they picked up one of the podiums and charged towards Khali, but he broke it in half with a big chop (which the audience seemed to enjoy). Show then double-chokeslammed Legacy through the bar (which looked really good; they got a lot of height on the slam). Show did the same "talking over the guy speaking fast Spanish" bit and mentioned the Wrestlemania 25th Anniversary Special (even though the 25th Anniversary is actually next year), which Conando called "el cheapo plugo."
The woman ran to Conando to "thank him" for saving her, but Andy Richter entered in a really cheesy "Nacho Libre" style wrestling outfit complete with mask and frills. Conando sent him away and made out with the young woman to end the scene. The whole thing was silly, but that is pretty much the point of the Tela Novela. It was a fun segment and the audience responded pretty well to the WWE guys, especially the physical stuff.
Powell's POV: If you missed the show like I did, there's a good chance they'll feature it on Conan's NBC website and/or the WWE website. I'll keep you posted if something pops up.
