Rey Mysterio Confronted McMahon About Drug Rumor

Vince McMahon has been WWE Chairman since 1982 when he bought WWE from his father Vince Sr and his partners. McMahon saw quite a few changes in his company over the last few decades on top of that. All through that, the WWE Chairman continued to adapt to the changing times.

 


 

However, many fans now feel that he is out of touch and simply has no idea what is good for a WWE Superstar and their growth. The WWE Chairman is larger than life in many ways and he also has his own oddities and problems as well. He also threatened a WWE star in a recent gym videoVince McMahon has been accused of an affair.

Vince McMahon has stepped down as CEO of WWE while the investigation is ongoing. His daughter, Stephanie McMahon, has since been moved into his position on an interim basis. McMahon was still in charge of creative for the company.

However, he recently retired from WWE as well. While speaking during his latest podcast, Konnan recalled how Vince McMahon asked Rey Mysterio if he still had a cocaine problem.

“Now let me tell you what happened when I did talk to him, and I will tell you what he did tell me. Okay, so basically, he wanted to do a Latin show. It was me, him, Rey Mysterio, and Bruce Prichard. The main thing was like, for some fu**ing reason, the guy thought I was on cocaine. He asked Bruce and he asked Rey if I still had a cocaine problem. They said, that motherfu**er doesn’t do cocaine, he smokes weed. You know, so this motherfu**er had it in his head that I had a coke problem. Can you believe that?”

“The other thing was, he was like, ‘What’s your relationship with AAA?’ I was like, ‘Well, it’s very good right now. I just want you to know that I am not leaving AAA under any circumstances to come to work for WWE.’ He goes, ‘Why not?’ I said, ‘Because Vince, I don’t want you to do budget cuts or some shit and throw me out the door and I’m at 60 years old knocking on the door of AAA asking for work. I’m not going to put myself in that position. So I’ll work with you. I’ll help you any way you want, but I’m staying in AAA, just so you know.’ He said, ‘Well, I don’t usually work like that, but we’ll see.’ I knew right then and there it was done, but the conversation continued.”

“I said, ‘With all due respect, Vince, I don’t think you’re properly exploiting the Latin talent in WWE. What you’re doing is you’re bringing Mexicans that do Mexican moves within the confines of an American match. That’s not what Latinos want to see,.’ He actually told me this and it fu**ing popped me and opened my eyes. I was like, ‘Is this guy the best worker in the world, or does he really believe what he just told me?’ He actually told me, ‘Well, that’s why I’m talking to you because nobody wants to hear from an out of touch, 70 year old white guy.’ Can you believe he told me that?”
