It is very rare to come across information on how WWE Chairman Vince McMahon really operates behind the scenes but recently Freddie Prinze Jr, a former WWE writer spoke to the Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast and shared some very interesting tit bits about Mr. McMahon. For instance, the WWE Chairman has very little interest in anything other than the world of wrestling and is apparently unaware of much of the pop culture of the time.

Prinze Jr. said, "I used to call him Robo-Vince and he goes, 'what does that mean?' because he [has] never seen anything but wrestling. I'm like, 'you've never seen RoboCop? Of course not! You didn't see Scarface or you would have known Razor Ramon is plagiarism!'" Prinze recalled, "I was watching a Richard Pryor set on the sweet WWE jet one time just to kind of unwind and relax. And we're flying back to White Plains [New York] and he literally is like, 'why don't you have on WrestleMania?' I'm like, 'Vince, I just want to laugh' [and McMahon replied] 'well, we have Santino'. I'm like, 'great, I love Santino [but] that's not Richard Pryor!"

However, something that would be a bit disturbing for aspiring wrestlers is the fact that, according to Prinze Jr., Mr. McMahon does not quite give up and coming performers the chance to win the WWE Championship. ""I want you to believe in the indy guys and the guys coming [from NXT], but just remember only certain guys get to hold the title. Oh, you've got to be the right type. The small guys, their story is climbing the mountain. It's not reaching the mountaintop. They're Sisyphus. They roll the boulder up only to have it thrown all the way back down.Shawn Michaels was a rare exception because his body would not break. Rey Mysterio is an exception that proves the rule. He's not an exception to the rule. He got hurt. The demands of a champion, Daniel Bryan, is another great example of what they have to do to their body 325 days a year without good sleeping conditions, without great physical therapy, without the means to rest between matches because you're just on another plane in coach flying somewhere. It is gruelling and destructive and that's why Vince wants to keep the belt on bigger guys because historically they've been able to last longer and remain healthier."
