I'm actually rewinding the Keeps advert in this video. I'm suddenly seeing how thin my hair has become since I hit 36 and it's scaring the crap out of me.
Ummm... it said pat Patterson because that was the in ring name he last used.... lol I don't think they used any real names unless it was their gimmick. Michael Cole is under Michael Cole n that's not his real name lol
Noon: Depart hotel for TV. 1pm: Arrive at TV taping. 3pm: Russo changes ending. 4pm: That doesn't work for me, brother. 5pm: Bischoff changes ending. 659pm: Russo puts in swerve. 7pm: Show starts. 703pm: Goldberg injures himself. 9pm main event: Ehhh, just do whatever you want.
He’d be better off as a pre show person or as a role as an “investigative reporter” cause I can see him being the interview guy who conversationally gets a guy through a promo.
He said in a video recently that he was doing trials at the Performance Centre and then COVID hit and the plan fell flat. By the time things opened up again, he had a decent job and didn't need it any more
The funny thing is, I have never been that much into wrestling (watched some episodes as a kid) but your content was somehow recommended to me and has reignited my interest and I started watching again. Thank you for that!
Just wanted to pop in and thank you for doing all of these videos, Maven. I've listened to dozens and dozens of shoots but never have I felt more informed or been more entertained by anyone talking about their wrestling career. Keep up the good work man, your many fans appreciate it!
Id actually love to see Maven commentate with Booker T and Vic Joseph in NXT, I think he'd be able to bounce off Booker T pretty well based off the video he uploaded with him.
Maven, I really enjoyed and appreciated this video. Ironically, I am currently an MBA student and worked as part of the Merchandising Team for WrestleMania XL a few weeks ago. It was interesting to see how WWE operates as a business and executes its planning, logistics, and personnel sections at the corporate level. Thanks so much for the insight! Keep these videos going!
The irony of Maven the hardcore champ who's been bald as a baby since he debuted getting a sponsor from Keeps is one of the most hilarious things i've seen in wrestling entertainment. You wonderful beautiful man.
Maven found his niche. This page is definitely going to blow up one day and become something huge. All of his videos are stuff we’ve always wondered about.
Maven, you are incredible. Thank you so much for the content you put out. Shout out to CVV. His podcasts are how I found out about you and your channel. Thanks again man have a great weekend!!
Maven, i always look forward to your new videos. You are such a good storyteller and an inspiration to me. Because of you, my love for wrestling has been ignited back to life. Please keep continuing what you do. I will always be here as your silent little fan.
Man this just shows how great and professional the wwe machine can be. These performers are putting in so much work and effort in and out of the ring. Maven you’re great keep up the content.
I started tuning in 7 months ago with these videos. Never thought much of you as a wrestler at the stage but now I'm rematching all your matches, tuning into your TH-cam videos & to be honest. I'm loving what you're doing, for your wrestling career & now letting us, the fans know the ins & outs. THANK YOU Maven!!! 👏
He kinda looks like Professor C Jr. See Maven coulda built super telekinesis powers into his character. He coulda been epic unstoppable feared heel champ.
Maven, I have to say, bumping into you at a random hotel in Princeton, NJ at 1 a.m. in November of last year was great for a couple reasons. You took the time to have a personal, kind hearted conversation with me, just man to man. It was incredible to share that small bit of time. I was on a long work trip with a college hockey team, and that conversation was the highlight of my week. My wife still doesn’t hear the end of it😂. As I walked back to the elevator, the only thing you asked of me was if I was subscribed to your TH-cam channel. I laughed and said I would. I did so immediately. Since then, I’ve adored the content. Such an amazing look into a business I’ve loved since I was a kid. I’m just a bit young to have seen your time in WWE live, but seeing your perspective on the business and just life in general has been fascinating! God bless, man. Thanks for the conversation and content!
Literally just play your videos on my drive to work, especially those really long live ones! This was always the perfect avenue for you! Can’t wait for more! (hopefully longer vids!)
Rather interestingly, Dustin Runnels appears in this handbook named as both "Dustin Runnels" when listed among the producers, but as "Dustin Rhodes" when appearing as a match producer during rehearsal.
Seeing a WWE handbook to see what the talent does from back in the day looks crazy. I wonder how big they must these days for more recent Wrestlemanias where they must alot of more places to be and more promotion. Thanks for the video, Maven!
Hey Mave - new subscriber here. I love your style throughout your videos. You’re honest about your experiences (good and bad), you give us all the info we’re looking for whilst also showing you have tremendous respect to the business and the people who helped you out during your career
Say what you want about Vince, but for him to organize his business the way he did and to have it built into a multi-billion dollar fully functioning corporation, you have to give him props.
Bro Maven. I always resented you when I was in my high school playing the WWE card game because you were the one with all the stats at its lowest and that cost me a lot of games with my buddies back then. But you have redeemed all that with this channel of yours and at 34 years old you're the only channel I visit on TH-cam on a daily basis. Keep collaborating with other wrestlers bro. Enjoying your content. P.S: My wife who isn't into wrestling says you have nice eyebrows. 😂
Cool trip down memory lane. At 28, the TV hotel (Intercontinental) was across the bridge from Axxess, which was at the convention center in Miami Beach. Call times had to be so early because you never knew how bad traffic would be going across the bridge. It could take 45 minutes to get from the hotel to Axxess. Beautiful location, though. Truly enjoy the videos. Thanks for everything, Maven.
Hey Mave I'm a subscriber a quick question have you gotten any heat from past or present wrestlers about the information you divulge on your Channel? Love what you do keep it up!
maven could you make a video on how wwe superstars travel, like i really wanna know how it starts from you guys are in your hometown and when getting ready and then getting to the airport and then getting to the city the show is going to be and then do you guys first go to the hotel or the arena and then after the show what happens next, please please i really wanna know
I sincerely do not know why you are not a ring announcer. you do have an exceptional speaking voice. you are clear and concise and intelligent sounding. You'd be an excellent vocal talent with experience in how the business works.
Had watched like 40 of your videos before finally getting around to subscribing. Great videos, and really miss this guy being in the ring. His dropkick was amazing and I was always psyched to see his matches.
Maven, I remember watching you when I was a kid and I still liked WWE back then (I don't really now because I don't know the characters and plotlines).Your channel is absolutely amazing and you seem like a very nice guy. I wish you all the best. Greetings from Finland
Maven, don’t take this the wrong way, but your voice is so soothing and I puts me to sleep. I always listen to you while laying in bed getting ready to fall asleep.
Never did i expect to see a WWE Itinerary for Mania week much less someone to literally explain what it means, why its there and how its different from their time Thank you Always learning alot from your videos
So, I have a question. I noticed that some of your videos, you're off to somewhere and you're driving while telling stories - where are you driving to ? Are you only driving to have a change of setting for the video ?
Hahahahaha…. Yeah, pretty much. One time I had just picked my filming partner up from the airport, so we banged out a video on the way to his air bnb. (2nd chance vid)
Thanks to Keeps for sponsoring this video & for the free product! Head to keeps.com/mavenhuffman to get a special offer. Individual results may vary.
I'm actually rewinding the Keeps advert in this video. I'm suddenly seeing how thin my hair has become since I hit 36 and it's scaring the crap out of me.
"It pays to be bald" he said :D
Have you thought about getting back in wrestling? Your voice would make for a great for commentary if you didn’t want to get in the ring
Ummm... it said pat Patterson because that was the in ring name he last used.... lol I don't think they used any real names unless it was their gimmick. Michael Cole is under Michael Cole n that's not his real name lol
@@BearFaceTV you may want to check out his recent videos, where he talked about exactly that.

Maven could have a lucritive career as a audio book voiceover. Your voice is so soothing and i can see my self listening to you during a long car ride
If I could have my life narrated by someone it would be Maven
Idk why but I can definitely picture him as like a guidance counselor or something.
"Now"
Maven is the new Morgan Freeman
Agreed. Molasses voice. His voice is like if Michael Waltrip went to Harvard 😂
Maven getting a keeps sponsorship is just proof that he has the best sense of humor
They must have watched his vids and saw that this guy can sell well 😅
Very true ❤❤
Yeah… I had to ask the guy who books these if they knew what I looked like. 😂
@@MavenKHuffman🤣🤣🤣
@MavenKHuffman It makes sense to get a bald guy around your age, because it's sort of "don't make my mistake"
Let's start a petition to WWE to hire Maven as a commentator. Dude genuinely loves the business and has the chops for commentary!
He should do the narration for WWE’s documentaries.
I stand by this 💯
He's said before he barely even follows the product anymore. I don't think he loves it that much
He’d be better off as a pre show person or as a role as an “investigative reporter” cause I can see him being the interview guy who conversationally gets a guy through a promo.
He said in a video recently that he was doing trials at the Performance Centre and then COVID hit and the plan fell flat. By the time things opened up again, he had a decent job and didn't need it any more
It’s Friday at Noon. Which means it’s Maven-time!
Its time...

When I see a Maven upload, I stop EVERYTHING I'm doing and watch. I could be a second away from saving the world, Maven uploads... everyone dies.
You dastard!
As long as we get to watch the vid b4 we die it's cool.
Biggest heel in the business
NOOOOO…. Save the world first for goodness sake’s!!! Then watch.
Maven should have been world champion
I could listen to these stories all day. Keep up the awesome work Maven. Maven the youtube personality is super entertaining.

I didn't watch while you wrestled but you brought me back to the WWE. Thank you!!
You are welcome
This channel is no longer my go to “wrestling channel “ it’s my go to channel period👏👏👏 thanks Maven this stuff is amazing
This comment made my day!!!! THANK YOU Cameron!
Maven, great content! Would love to see you break down wrestling in film, like “The Wrestler” and “Iron Claw” to get your thoughts/perspective
Great idea!!!! This video WILL happen
Yes, definitely do this. It would be awesome, you could tell us what is realistic and what is Hollywood BS. @@MavenKHuffman

Bald guy endorsing an anti hairfall product is the best thing I ever watched.
WM28 was my first WM and I really love it. So this is why this video became even better. Thank you, Maven!
Glad it hit a personal note for you!
Maven's videos are one of the reason i am always excited for Friday! Keep up the good work.
The Final Boss is here to grace us with his presence once more!
😂😂😂 Maven, the final boss!
Should have been Maven with a dropkick instead of Undertaker with the chokeslam.
@@TheSBleederOr simply should have had Maven on The Bloodline’s side and have him drop kick Taker right after he chokeslams The Rock.
Maven, you are incredible. Thank you so much for the content you put out. Shout out to CVV. His podcasts are how I found out about you and your channel. Thanks again man have a great weekend!!

Ooh love it. I love seeing see the inside baseball type stuff of WWE.
People: "I don't think i've ever seen maven with a hair"
Young Maven: "Allow me to introduce myself"
Maven's channel here is probs one of the top 5 favorate channels ngl, always loved the content you make.
Can we talk about the irony behind Maven being sponsored by keeps? Its like Professor X endorsing a treadmill company 😂
😂😂😂
Or Professor X endorsing... uhh... Keeps...
He kinda looks like Professor C Jr. See Maven coulda built super telekinesis powers into his character. He coulda been epic unstoppable feared heel champ.

We don't have to do anything or give props to a sexual predator. Vince is a disgraced former CEO who was forced out of his own company
@@anthonyfaucy2761 Yet nothing has been proven, and he's been convicted on nothing. Someone sounds jealous of his success.
