RVD believes fans are conditioned to think that way. In addition, he said fans must confirm and fact-check things before coming to conclusions. He then gave a sarcastic example citing if he overdosed on muscle relaxants while working for WWE, it wouldn’t be WWE’s or Vince’s blame to take.

Honestly, in the world of pro wrestling, it has become ‘cool’ to blame Vince McMahon for anything and everything that goes wrong in WWE. This does not happen with any other wrestling booker or executive across the globe.
