Russo shared how McMahon would always be on Pat Patterson‘s head because he was a smoker. However, he couldn’t do the same to another WWE Hall of Famer.
Vince Russo revealed the WWE Chairman couldn’t do anything about his hate for smoking around WWE Hall of Famer Jesse ‘The Body’ Ventura. Why? Well, Ventura had become the Governor of Minnesota by this point of time.
Russo shared, “Bro, Jesse Ventura was just walking around backstage with the biggest, hugest, and fattest cigar you could find. He was literally blowing the smoke in Vince’s face, knowing there wasn’t a damn thing Vince could do about it.”
“Vince no-sold it. Didn’t say anything. And Jesse knew it was absolutely killing Vince. That was the funniest things I’ve ever seen,” concluded the former WWE writer.
