Vince McMahon is the Executive Chairman of WWE and ruled over the company with an iron fist for a long time. That being said, McMahon is not really aware of what goes on in the outside world, especially when it comes to celebrities. It appears that Bruce Prichard once explained to McMahon why Kim Kardashian’s backside was famous.
For those who don’t recall, Kim Kardashian appeared as a guest host for a few segments for WrestleMania 24. Kardashian would eventually become an even bigger name after her WWE appearances.
While speaking on a recent episode of his Something to Wrestle podcast, Bruce Prichard recalled his time working with Kim Kardashian during her appearance for the company. Prichard recalled how Kardashian was a dream to work with.
“Kim was a dream to work with. As far as when you look at the outside celebrities that have come in, some are so concerned about their image and what they will and won’t do. Kim was like, ‘I’m in your world, you tell me what you want me to do,'” he said. “She was a pleasure. Anytime you can have a celebrity show up on time with a great attitude, and not argue with you about every word, that’s a good day.”
That being said, there was only one person backstage in WWE who had no idea why Kim Kardashian was famous. Bruce Prichard revealed that they filmed a backstage segment focusing on Kardashian’s backside, something McMahon didn’t understand at all.
”I knew as soon as I showed it to him, he was like, ‘God d***, you’re starting it on her ass. Bruce, we don’t do that.’ I said, ‘Vince, I know, but that’s her gimmick.”
Vince McMahon would eventually agree with the idea after Bruce Prichard showed him that it was something that Kim Kardashian’s audience would understand and like. Regardless, Kardashian did her role well and that is all that matters.
