During an episode of It’s My Wrestling Podcast, Jacques Rougeau mentioned Vince was scared of bullying from The British Bulldogs.
He said, “I think that Vince was afraid of The Bulldogs bullying. I think he was half encouraging it and half saying, hey guys, that’s not funny, you know? I think it wasn’t the way maybe to approach it because the Bulldogs were saying ‘Okay, he heard it. He laughed a little bit, but he didn’t fire us. So I think we could keep going.’”
“They got worse and worse. So when I stood up, the only guy who stood up to them, I think Vince realized that he screwed up, that he shouldn’t let it go that far,” he added. (H/T: Inside The Ropes)
