Pat Patterson was a predator and Vince allowed it, and now we know why allowed it because Vince himself is a predator. There is no telling how many wrestlers were abused by Pat Patterson and no telling how many divas and staff were abused by McMahon.
The rap on Perez even back then and even in the kayfabe Apter mags was that Perez had zero personality or charisma and it would be what held him back from success.
TBF, the “you could go both ways, Al” is a story that’s been around at least 20 years on the Internet. I’m not saying Perez’s interpretation of events is the correct one, but it’s not a new story.
I don't think that many there was talk of others but mostly lower card guys. There was rumors of Sly Grenier who Pat discovered at a Montreal Strip club before he ever started wrestling but he wasn't a top guy. Brawler had the rumors from Kamala and others. He did keep a job for 30 years which is very rare for WWE.
Perez is another legend in his own mind. I’m sure Vince shined these guys on about how much success they could have, which to me is just the usual promoter stuff. But the idea that suddenly Vince wanted him to start wrestling Hogan? Yeah OK, Al.
I'm sure Al's intuition about the situation was right on, but I have to play devils advocate for a second... it is possible Pat was talking about wrestling when he said that
When will Dark Side Of The Ring give us a Pat Patterson episode??
Al was a no nonsense kinda guy. Respect.

Kamala told the same story about the 1 bed thing. He said it was Steve Lombardi who was getting the room when Pat said that.
AL was GREAT AND DESERVED BETTER treatment than he got !!!!!

@@peterp2153 I can see that
Patterson really did do it his way. Freak
Of course Vince thought that nobody knew Al. He supposedly never watched anything other than his own company.
I wish he went into more depth regarding the conversation with Vince.
Al was a tough guy, Pat's lucky...
Pat even made a move on Sid , as big and intimidating as he was, so anything is possible
Pat loves big men.
Vince knew he wasnt putting out for Pat so was hinting at him going with him or it wasnt gonna happen for him on the WWF
Nice how everyone has or had issues with Pat and Vince when neither are available to defend themselves
Vince is not dead

How many people besides Shawn Michaels got a big push because they slept with Pat Patterson?

I doubt anyone slept with Pat Patterson to further their career. I’m not a believer.
LOL !!!!!!!!
Vince looks like Ted Bundy in the thumbnail
Ill tell you what the wrestling business is just like hollyweird and the corporate ladder its about who you know and who you blow
All he had to do was lay back and relax and would of been intercontinental champion

Who didn't get a big push from playing the game 😂
You need to play the game in wrestling I sucked at it as well. Triple H is the best politician ever fitting name.
Dibiase
Yeah, politics is why you aren’t currently main eventing the WWE HOF ceremony next week. 🙄
@@TheHannibalTV Triple H is doing a better job than Vince
Pat just wanted a taste
Vince ruined wrestling. SOS.
😂

Al who?WTF?
