RVD is regarded as one of the all-time greats as far as in-ring action and death-defying stunts are concerned. RVD has competed all over the world and gained a lot of respect from fans and peers alike. He also has a high opinion of Vince McMahon and it appears RVD was advised to kiss up to Vince McMahon as well.

Vince McMahon is the Executive Chairman of WWE and is undoubtedly one of the most controversial names in the history of pro wrestling. Therefore, it is not surprising quite a few people hold a grudge against him.

While speaking during the latest edition of his of a Kind podcast, the WWE Hall Of Famer recalled a conversation with Bruce Prichard asking him to develop a relationship with Vince McMahon by kissing up to him.

“He was like, ‘You need to build a relationship with Vince. Vince needs to know that he can trust you, that you’re the guy he can invest in, that he can put the belt on that can lead this company. He needs to know that.’ I was like are you saying I need to kiss his a**? I’m out there having great matches, the crowd’s going nuts, I don’t know what else you want from me. That’s one of the things that held me back as well.”
