Damn you do a great Vince McMahon impression. Great upload, King!

[@toadysplash881]

Vince & The King were gold on commentary through the mid 90s

[@JayTheAdviceGuy]

Listening to this story, you almost forget how they used to be on commentary so regularly during the 90's. (Well, I forgot lol.) They were INDEED GOLD! You don't even think much about their boss/employee dynamic when you hear them, and this story totally made me forget about their commentary days. But I loved them!

[@nevermeanttofade]

Jerry is the greatest! God bless you!

[@mrmcmahon2874]

God Damn It Pal

[@zombiewarrior88]

The more I hear stories about vince mcmahon, the more I think he's a hoot.

[@josereyes1148]

more like a control freak.

[@barringtonfisher87]

He's like a child. But I can imagine among the frustration of working with him, he can be hilarious

[@jamie-gy6bd]

A Pedophile

[@gentlemanscorner269]

Awesome thank you for the video 😎😗

[@DinnerWithTheKing]

Thanks for listening!

[@gentlemanscorner269]

Thank you for Sir🤗

[@jeremysheets8086]

Love the King.

[@joker167able]

Damn it! now I have to watch the preshow to corroborate this.

[@big_dro1713]

I am glad that they are getting along after years of bickering.

[@gman2015z]

He called him directly too and not one of his assistants haha.

[@FerretJohn]

Well I'm sure Vince isn't exactly sitting in a barco-lounger with a beer and a bag of chips like the rest of us but they got all sorts of monitors in the back watching what's going on and making sure there's no snafus, and he keeps an eye on those most of the night

[@conz8084]

Where's that phone from?? 1998

[@HornyStewie_69]

Vince misses the attitude era

[@UrOpinionsSucc]

Early 2000's

[@MarkfromKy]

Funny story

[@allenwoodall5590]

I grew up on Memphis Wrestling Jerry Lawler as a bad guy was awesome with Sam Bass.

[@marcrap1865]

That's what Vince worries about a crown not giving us a better product 😉👍

[@theoldhag674]

You’re literally such a stupid pathetic moron with a low intellect that you would hear a story like this. A story about someone who is so invovlved. You might not like his vision but you can’t say the guy isn’t giving you the best and most he can. It’s ok to not like his taste or vision but it isn’t that he isn’t giving you what he thinks is best. Dummy

[@richieherlinger4545]

It probably pissed Vince off that he actually had to make a phone call himself lol. I can just hear it.... "Dammit, I have to use a phone myself. Coach....dammit, someone get in here. I don't know what button to push to talk to King". Lol.

[@armaansaumya]

Good impersonation though !

[@nohbuddy1]

Vince is just weird

[@BigEvan96]

This is terrible micromanagement. How is this even worthy of being a story?

[@cob2076]

So vince will watch a boring 2hr preshow but refuses to watch anything to do with NXT ?? Good one vince........

[@richieherlinger4545]

That's actually a good thing, If he watched NXT, he's probably be trying to make Triple H change everything and make it suck like the main roster shows. But, everything main roster goes through Vince, including the pre shows. He probably watches everything that he has final say on, unless of course he is part of the show. But then he probably rewatches it later.

[@noveltybobel]

Think about it. NXT is good, the rest is terrible. Vince doesn't bother with NXT............hmmmm......

[@jasonpetty944]

It's just a little light hearted behind the scenes. What are you people bitching about?

[@takerdust]

@@richieherlinger4545 lol this aged well

[@dachronicalalittlebitofeve6630]

I’d pay to get vince on conrads podcast or better yet kayfabe commentaries!! To actually ask the main man the questions we never get the real answers too, I’ve heard tons about Vince and he sounds like a crazy fun guy, I wish I’d followed my dream and tried to make it as a wrestler but growing up in the UK it always seemed way to far fetched an idea, like being a space man!

[@rancidcrawfish]

The last thing I'd want to hear is mouth breathing followed by "Meltzer would write.."

[@mr.mirchenstein6549]

Wait, so this actually happened on air?? LOL...I don't remember that. 😆😆

[@TrueGunnerUK]

Mike Mirch No he said during commercial.

[@TrueWisdomAsherite80]

Big deal, he probably dropped by to check on things, you know he don't have nothing else to do to be calling King for something so insignificant lol

[@XxXxTwofirstnames69420xXxXx]

I called Jerry Lawler during the Royal Rumble pre show, too. Why didn't you pick up, King?
