“I used to dread it. For some reason, I’d always leave that office and I’d go back to the locker room and I’d be on the show that night. He had no reason to keep me around with some of the s**t that I was pulling. Some of it was just dumb, immature kid s**t.”
He further added that McMahon has seen him at his worst when he’s had public meltdowns and breakdowns.
He banged his head against the wall in front of him. Additionally, he feels there is more man-to-man respect between him and McMahon after 20 years of knowing him.
