There was nothing that could be accomplished between the time he started bitching about it at 6AM and when I’d see him at 7:30. We were gonna see him in like an hour and a half. What the hell was going on? Who told them to do this?’ I don’t know Vince. You’re barely out of bed, the phone is ringing and you’d hear the fax machine in the other room and he’d say, ‘Match 4. The phone would ring and he would say, ‘Damn, that 4th match last night.’ I would say, ‘Vince my eyes are shut.’ McMahon replies, ‘Goddamn it, what have you been doing all day?’ It’s 6 AM! That’s how your day would start. You would get up at 6:30, 7 ‘o clock in the morning….Vince notoriously would get up earlier than Pat or I did.

When Prichard received those early morning calls he would inform McMahon that he was sleeping, to which McMahon would reply,Īfter the salutations, then he just starts up as if you were on the same wave length as him. What do you think I’m doing?’ She was apologetic and I just started laughing and I told her then, ‘I could never imagine those words coming out of Vince McMahon’s mouth, calling me at 2 ‘o clock in the morning.’ You have no idea how many 2am, 3am, 4am phone calls I’ve gotten from the man and the first thing out of his mouth is, ‘What are you doing pal?’ You probably want to go off and be with your family and everything.’ I’m thinking, ‘It’s 3:30 on a Friday afternoon. The first thing out of her mouth was, ‘I apologize for calling you so late on a Friday.’ I’m like, ‘Ummmm, it’s just 3:30.’ She’s like, ‘I know but, it’s Friday. One Friday about 3:30 in the afternoon, my phone rings and it’s Dixie Carter. I eventually took over talent relations and so on and so forth.

I’d gone to work there, started out just free lancing producing and stuff like that. Essentially if you desperately need something to watch, give this a try but there are countless other shows that I would recommend before this one.I went to work for TNA and Dixie Carter. If you prefer more realistic writing and decision making by the characters, this might be a hard watch for you.

I've seen this in a couple other reviews but if you can throw all reality out the window while watching this, you'll probably enjoy it especially if you're a fan of Tucci or Tennant. He does a solid job but his character makes such poor decisions that I don't think any human would make regardless of their level of intelligence that it makes his part of the story very hard to watch. Normally I see Tennant in great roles and I have no idea why he decided to take this part. Jim Ross previously claimed to be instrumental in WWE signing the Hollywood actor and has disclosed details of early conversations with the then-unknown star who would go on to become one of the biggest names in wrestling. It makes the show so unrealistic that it's practically unwatchable. WWE 's Bruce Prichard has credited the late Pat Patterson with discovering The Rock and helping push him thereafter. I caught myself asking why countless times just during the first episode. Tennant's character makes the worst decisions imaginable. This is where the show goes off the rails. Instead there is a horrible second story involving David Tennant. Tucci and the other death row inmate are fantastic together and it would be a much more interesting show if it was just based on them solving cases. As per usual, Stanley does a great job especially given the writing he had to work with. I decided to watch this despite mixed reviews because I love Stanley Tucci.
