Vince McMahon is considered one of the most controversial figures in the history of professional wrestling. The WWE Chairman is larger than life and that is not limited to his on-screen character either. Pat McAfee also has a high opinion of Vince McMahon.
Vince McMahon has his own peculiarities that many people simply cannot understand and find very weird, to say the least. Despite this, McMahon goes by the beat of his own drums and that is what matters to him.
While speaking on his podcast, Pat McAfee talked about Vince McMahon. McAfee stated that he believes Vince McMahon does not get enough credit for his good ideas.
“Vince gets all the heat for all the bad ideas that happen. When you’re going live every single week, two times a week on TV. Both the first longest and the second-longest episodic television series of all time, Raw and Smackdown. Those are the two. You’re gonna get some bad ideas in there. Every show you watch, there’s some fucking bad episodes. Every once in a while that’s gonna happen.
He never gets credit for the good stuff though. Whenever you think like, Stone Cold, The Rock, Brock Lesnar. You go through the list of just success. I know there’s a lot more. Randy fucking Orton is on that list. By the way, you should be pumped. You’ve done the business well, and I think Vince should also probably take a victory lap every once in a while and be like, ‘I saw something in this guy and stuck by this guy. A lot of people didn’t and now he is one of the goats at what he does.’ Man, it’s awesome.”
Vince McMahon could still make an in-ring return at WrestleMania 38 even if Austin Theory vs Pat McAfee is still the plan. We’ll have to see how the match turns out at the Show of Shows.
