Let's Talk About Vince McMahon

- From 2001 to 2005, I was a WWE wrestler, and Vince McMahon was my boss. During that time, I got to know what Vince is really like in real life. In this video, I share my relationship with him and if the current allegations against McMahon have changed my opinion of him.
How have the current allegations against Vince McMahon affected your perception of WWE and wrestling in general?
Still a huge fan of the product but I have never been a fan of Vince. The allegations solidified that.
Nope. This stuff happens in every corporate system.
I knew about Vince's shenanigans since the 90's bro, it's just a shock it's all coming to a head now because he's use to burying this kind of stuff and getting away with it. Just glad you got out the business with a level head many lose it and don't come back from the insanity of the wrestling business
Seperate the art from the man.
These are not the first allegations against Vince and the upper levels of WWE and they will not be the last. Pro Wrestling as an industry has been absolutely rotten with monsters and abusers since the carny days - but the fact people are finally facing consequence is a good sign for the industry. It's not enough, not by a long shot. But it's a step towards a better future.
Can't believe Maven in 2024 is one of the best storytellers in the wrestling business today
Paul London is a great storyteller as well. I actually stumbled across Paul London thanks to Maven plugging René Duprée's TH-cam channel, Café de René.
let's all be honest, a lot of these guys would have probably gone a lot further if they had creative liberty on TV. It wouldn't have improved Maven's ring work but I'm positive it would have made a hell of a difference for his promos
Jim cornette and Paul heyman are the best eric bischoff also
Between Maven's animated plainspoken storytelling and Stevie Richards' more technical approach, I barely feel the need to watch any actual programming anymore. Of course, I also like watching a trainwreck such as DSOTR 😂
Ernest the cat miller has some great stories. Look him up you will not be disappointed
Maven looks like he about to take you to a place that only he knows about
Like that Keane song
Turns out it was the end of everything for Vince..... @@Adam-kn3tv
@@Adam-kn3tvmore like somewhere only HE knows
Just a nice drive out in the country...
"I know a place...'
Maven starts off looking like a sassy cat burglar
🤣 that was actually funny
I was going to say Springboot microservice developer but I guess you and I have worked with different kinds of people.
It's not a work?
@@extrageneitymaybe the same people
Sassy is a backhanded way of saying gae
Maven is one of the only TH-camrs who can film a video in a car and still make the video interesting.
Amen
He could be in a solid white room no windows acting crazy and we still would listen to his stories
Mundo Maldini
Yeah!!
Maven can tell a good story anywhere. But the car setting isn't that bad. I personally find the road trip vibe to be quite cozy.
Seeing vince outside of an office environment, casual clothing and cup of coffee is such a strange look, I could have sworn he was born in a suit 😂
😂😂
Especially in a Russian oligarch style trackstuit LMAO
No, he was born in a trailer park dirt poor where he was alleged pimp by his mom to guys.
@@Chthonian121hes a putin fan.
@@oRealAlieNoHe’s a Trumper so I’m not surprised.

Maven’s into reminds me of Troy McClure from the Simpsons. “Hi, I’m former WWE superstar Maven. You might remember me from such MTV show Tough Enough and the elimination of The Undertaker. For the next 10-15 minutes we’ll be seeing life inside the world of pro wrestling.” Love the video Maven!
Great comment 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
I posted this as a meme on Simpsons Shitposting on Facebook.
😂
I was thinking this myself
a while ago, but you
drove it HOME!
Maven you're killing it with these videos buddy. Ya got a fan in me brotha
🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@MavenKHuffmanand another from the uk
Two videos in one week? Man it’s a good week.
Oh what I didn't even get the notification for the other one.
Stg I said that too!
This video has been in the coming up section for like 2 weeks lol
Maven is so fine. I know I cannot be the only woman crushing and simping for this beautiful, charismatic, charming southern gentleman! Girrrrrllll…. 👀
I'm digging this "ride along" story time theme, and at night; where its a lot calmer outside, is really nice. Tho IRL when im with someone and they are driving and they keep looking at me and not the road gives me anxiety lmao.
😂😂😂 yeah I get it
wonder if he got the idea from sam sulek lol. either way its great and indeed very relaxing.
😂😂
Back-to-back Maven videos in a week?
Maven is on a roll. May you reach 1 Million soon!
role huh
@@armaanmodi haha
My mistake my man.
Corrected.
@@armaanmodi everything is good, he corrected the mistake. No need to worry 🤙
I just finished watching your season of TE. I think you should catch up with one of the contestants (Nidia, Josh, Greg) and do a sit down interview with one of them. Or do a mini reunion for one of your videos.
I'd watch the shit out of that!
I'd love that.
That's an great Idea. Pretty interesting to see, weather some of them had an Career in Wrestling and so on.
@BridgeTrollForge I would the shit into that!
Where can you watch it? I never saw Tough Enough. I’d love to see Maven’s season!
He sounds like a tough but understanding boss. Really a shame about what’s coming up right now, that sucks. Thank you for sharing this with us Maven.
As long as you are not female, lol
That's an interesting perspective, and one that Maven seems to share. I think Vince came across as a callous shithead.
This. Almost all of the interviews I’ve seen from former wrestlers whether they be low, midcarder, maineventer, whatever, emphasize Vince’s fairness and open door policy. Sure he was a control freak that ran a tight ship but that’s business. WWE is the cream of the crop and you’re expected to perform at a high level every night. Tough yet understanding is the impression I get from everyone that talks about the man.
@davidsmock8235 maven seems like he maybe a conservative leaning dude so I'm not surprised he nor going at vince .good ole boys club.
They are allegations. Don’t jump to conclusions. Only thing proven to me is McMahon is a pervert…. Maybe the chick was too, maybe not. Wait and see before condemning anyone
Hey Maven. I want you to know that your channel has quickly become one of my absolute favorites to tune in to at the end of the day. Your honesty, humility, your over all being is really something I really try to learn from. I appreciate so much how you always talk about things that others would probably avoid for fear of being frowned on, or looked down on. If there's anything this video should reminds us about is that its this: There's nothing in this world that is as simple as black and white. Right and wrong. There are thousands, millions, probably billions of shades of gray in between. Vince has done some truly amazing things in the past. Still, it is this same individual who committed these absolutely horrible, atrocious and unforgivable acts. It makes absolute sense that in light of recent events, how some people who knew Vince closer, or worked with him on a daily basis would have very conflicting, difficult feelings. But again, I am so grateful that you found it in yourself to be able to give your personal experience on what he was like then, and how you feel now. I feel like a lot of statements and comments I've seen so far had been so vague, that it felt like it went in one ear and out the other for me. But your video really sticks because it really speaks volumes about just how complex most of our feelings are. Thanks again man. Grew up watching you in the ring. It's a true blessing to watch you 20 something years later on youtube.
Can't blame how you feel. Vince had to be a person at minimum you respected. And if the allegations are true, it damages the legacy he created, and the business as a whole.
Doesn't do any damage to the business at all it damages him personally the end
Legit whenever there's a new maven video uploaded I stop what I'm doin and play it!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 if only EVERYONE had that same mindset 😂
I'm deff not alone! You're a true inspiration brother@@MavenKHuffman
I got to say I appreciate your willingness to accept the evidence against someone even when it contradicts your experience with him. Often when situations come to light people tend to go "That's not the person I knew" which to a certain extent you also do but you then follow it up with "but I understand that there is evidence that says he was another person as well". People tend to want to believe that their view of a person is the whole story when in reality that is very rarely the case. My stepdad growing up always seemed like a perfectly caring, albeit flawed individual who rarely had anger issues, he smoked but he didn't really drink much, and while we did get spanked (we were 90s kids) it wasn't maliciously or excessively imo. In the last few years of his life we did end up having an argument that ended in me resenting him due to how he left things when him and my mom split but overall I still thought he was a decent person. Many years after his death I found out that during those years of growing up with him that he had been sexually abusing one of my sisters, up until that point I had no idea. My experience with him was one that has had an impact on who I am as a person, I remember playing Rock and Roll racing and Mortal Kombat on the SEGA genesis with him, I remember when he picked up a SEGA saturn and a bunch of games when the Saturn turned out to be a bust and all the games ended up being cheap as hell, I remember when we got a Playstation 1 and playing twisted metal 3 and 4 with him, I also remember when he and my mom split and I found out that he had gotten a playstation 2 and he had gotten Twisted Metal Black and feeling upset because I was missing out because at this point I wasn't talking to him anymore but one of my sisters (not the one who was sexually abused) would still go visit him on the weekends and she told me. Gaming has always been and will always be a big part of who I am and he is partially responsible for that. With that being said, I know that he was a monster and I'm glad that I didn't know then what I know now because if I knew then what I knew now I would be in prison because I would have killed him myself. I am incredibly protective of my sisters and will not standby while they are hurt. People can be two different people depending on your view but it's important to realize that you're only seeing part of who that person is.
Dude I'm so sorry you went through that. If your step-dad was still alive and you confronted him, I'm sure he would've gladly would have diddled your lady parts as well so you wouldnt be such a jealous bitch who sits down when he pees.
Why did your sister wait until he was dead to make it known that she was being abused? You, your mother, other siblings, other family members never saw any red flags or grew suspicious? Did his other victims come forward? Anecdots blind common sense.
What you're saying is, Never trust your own gut feelings and personal experiences, believe all accusations made, guilty until proven innocent and even if they're proven inocent we will still treat them as if they're guilty, publicly disavow person as if they've already been found guilty while also pretending that you have personally seen all the physical evidence and know more about it than everyone else.
You sound like a great big sister
@@honeyosweet3877 I'm an even better big brother :P
Like that you touch the subject, because is something that is becoming rare now days. We need people to learn and want to be more transparent and genuine to who they are with everyone. We will never know the extent of why people do things that seems so out-of-character, but we can push to know more of someone. People can work so hard to develop a relationship, but they can also be capable of destroying one in seconds.
Fair play Mave, thats a good honest view and your telling us from your POV, I respect that...
Am I right in saying when you lost your mom Maven, Vinces mom passed around the same time, but him taking time to contact you was a touch of class, showed that despite what we see he does have a heart somewhere...
Anyway, my opinion on Vince and WWE in general is not really a good one, I dont really like the culture of working when injured and I dont like the unwritten rule of finishing matches with when you suffer a serious injury, take your leg for example, you could have messed it up even more, I get the whole wanting to look tough, wanting to look hard, but if you never came back from a serious, would they continue signing checks for you if you were permanantly injured, they have a basic duty of care to the wrestlers and Chris Benoit is a perfect example of a failure in duty of care, which I wont go into right now.
Vince McMahon was so concerned about becoming number 1 that he lost sight of a few things along the way, he was so ruthless that he fostered an attitude that stopping when injured is seen as weak for example...
Mr McMahon on the other hand, probably the greatest heel in the of the business, but Vince McMahon out the ring, a morally reprehensible man, a predator, an abuser who would stomp over anybody and not think twice about what he was doing to hurt someone...
He also has a habit of shafting people, he ran every Territory away, and hes been known to shaft people financially, I'm sure I read somewhere that he ripped Stu Hart off when Stsmpede was sold, Vince apparantly decided he wasn't going to pay anymore
I haven’t sat down and watched WWE in forever. But I really love listening to your stories and personal experiences with wrestlers that I may like or dislike. I hope you keep doing what you’re doing ✌🏻
I really appreciate how you've spoken on this. You acknowledged the good he did for your life. But you didn't shy away from his evil and the people he hurt. As a survivor of rhis type of abuse, thank you.
I had been hearing from a lot of people that your TH-cam Channel was top tier, but hadn’t checked it out until now and .. yeah. This is great, I’m a subscriber.
And thanks for being a part of my childhood.
There's a line from Star Trek The Next Generation, an episode called "The Drumhead". Towards the end Captain Picard said "Villains who twirl their mustaches are easy to spot. Those who clothe themselves in good deeds are well camouflaged." And I think that that applies in this situation. Of course Vince wouldn't show to you that he had this other side of him. Otherwise, people wouldn't want to do business with him.
So with saying that, I definitely don't blame you for any of your interactions with Vince, and I don't think that anyone else should either. Of course, that's just my opinion, people are welcome to theirs.
Hope you see this and that this makes sense. Keep up the good work!
@harvardsmithdeangelo6905
Shut your mouth
A wise comparison
@harvardsmithdeangelo6905 You spelled "Wars" wrong.
Get back to me when he's charged with a crime
To be honest: Wrestling is not my thing yet Maven is so sweet and humble and a joy to watch, so I keep watching it. Also giving all the money from life streams to charity is something I really appreciate.
Thank you for being such a nice human being, Maven!
I'm curious, how did you get interested in watching Maven discuss wrestling? If I wasn't a wrestling fan I probably would have skipped right over his first few videos just from the title
@@erikgilson1687 I guess the first video I saw was the one about the tricks like getting color and I found it interesting for some reason and I liked the way Maven talked. There is something about him that I liked, maybe its just sympathy.
@@PotatoEevee Cool! Yeah it's a really fascinating and bizarre subculture even if you're not interested in actually watching the wrestling itself
@@erikgilson1687 indeed I learned a lot about things I never knew even existed and thats something I am grateful for
My perception of WWE hasn't changed much, Vince is definitely a creative genius but you can't be blessed with having a few curses that will take over eventually if you can't keep your demons in check. The issue is also that every big and important company suffers from these issues, it's just ppl tend to look away and try to let it rest. It just happens to be wrestlings time to expose those important figures in the upper echelon. Everything gets a return, karma is real in that sense.
I mean all the wrestling fans with a bit of a brain inside their skull know that Vince is a absolute madman. He created insane storylines, had even more so insane ideas (incest with Steph, etc) and what not, but he also created some memorable things that will be in wrestling history forever. I do wish for the victims to find their inner peace and start living again free from all those burdens that Vince has created for a vast amount of time.
But I also gotta that it didnt' really took me by surprise, nor did it shock me as it has shocked other people. Since Vinces departure I heard other wrestlers saying that the locker room is more relaxing now and everything seems more cooler than back in the days. Like the climate in the workplace has changed for the better and what not.
In any case, you have a healthy and honest attitude towards the whole thing, Maven. Unlike other wrestlers who still call him a friend and smile and ignore the overwhelming evidence. Friendship or not, you have to draw the line somewhere otherwise you're no better. On the contrary, you are basically the same as your friend.
Maven I get why you gave the disclaimer about how you had some good interactions with Vince, but I don't think you should feel too guilty. We often times imagine abusers as either super creepy guys or like a hyper aggressive asshole, but it's not uncommon for abusers to be extra charming to those they are not abusing. It makes it even harder for the victim to get help as it's harder to believe the victim when the abuser is such a "nice" person to others. I appreciate that you do your best to center the focus on the victims throughout your input on this.
Innocent until proven guilty. Don't paint that brush until the case is over
I think text messages is enough proof lol@richardy2071
This.
@@richardy2071 "Innocent until proven guilty" applies to the burden of proof required in law to convict someone of a crime and to allow the state to remove certain rights from that person. There must be a high bar when someone's liberty, rights, and possibly even life are at stake. That doesn't apply to individuals who can absolutely know that someone is a creepy, degenerate, abuser, and judge the person accordingly as we don't have the authority to deny them their rights.
@@oscarx-ray3545here is the thing though… a lot of those things were consensual. If those alleged in the complaint are not consensual, that is already rape, and no NDA can cover that, yet here are the accusers just asking for payment, while they can all go for punishment and and payment.
All those people are much more concerned about the NDA over the fact that they were “victimised.”
Ever since I subscribed to your channel you have single handedly reinvigorated my love for wrestling… Thanks brother!!! 🙏🏼
That just made me smile… thank you for sharing
The in car format is great! Changing it up works well.

First of all, amazing video and camera work. You handled the subject matter in this video surprisingly well. Keep up the amazing work.
Thank you. I try to view this, and every other situation as rationally as possible
@@MavenKHuffman Like I said in one of your previous videos, I'm not a wrestling fan, and I personally think that these allegations are absolutley horrendous, but it doesn't shock me. This is really a great example of how easily monsters can hid in plain sight. Also quick personal question for you Maven. Have you ever watched Survivor before? if so, there's a new season out right now.
Maven... props to you my man. You seem like a genuinely good dude!!!!
Thank you 🙏🏽 so much

Thank you, Maven. I love how much you own that missed dropkick, or subdued match with CN.

Much love from your pal in Buffalo, NY. Kev
It's bizarre the control Vince had over these guys and girls, It was his own personal playground
That’s how they treat it. Same with Dana White. All the female fighters and ring girls are just his and Lorenzo Fertitta’s personal harem. No one cares about these chicks in athletics it’s just all a ploy to get easy tail.
it was also HIS company and the employees WANTED to work their. No one was held hostage and no one was forcing them to be a wrestler. if you don't like the way your treated at you job. Leave.

Some things are difficult. I appreciate you recognizing that
Honky tonk man said about vince that he would see wrestlers as toys that he would play with them and when he got bored would cut them loose but there would be toys that he kept and try to fix them if broken and keep bringing them back.

Maven is the best thing right now for wrestling.
Vince's past finally caught up with him. Even the Teflon don got caught. He almost bite himself in the ass in the early 90's with the steroid allegations.
On a positive note keep making these amazing, honest, and sincere videos.
You are awesome. Thank you!

Great video Mave, as usual. For a future video, I’d love to know what you and the other wrestlers thought about the long term health effects of being a wrestler and how you dealt with it. While you’re all very physically fit, there’s a lot of negatives that come with the territory. Such as steroid abuse, the slow physical damage and the threat of being injured very badly. Did anyone ever speak about those issues and how did the WWE support you all? Keep up the great work!
I cant tell you enough how much inenjoy your videos. I grew up watching you in the WWE. Im so glad you have this channel to share your thoughts and experiences. Thank you and i cant wait for more
All you can do really! Totally agree. Thanks Maven your awesome. You're a good hearted dude. Very wise words my guy. Your mother would be proud of you bless her heart 🙏🏻
Thank you for saying that. It makes me happy to think she would approve. Trust me, she thought I was an idiot… but loved that about me
DUDE I LOVE THESE STORIES!!!!!!
THIS IS THE BEST WRESTLER CHANNEL ON TH-cam!!!!!
THANKS MAVEN!!!!!
Maven you've got some of the best content, so glad I subscribed, so glad you got out of the business with all your sanity. Loved Vince's creativity and passion but he overworked a lot of the workers and didn't give them enough slack which threw many off the edge I mean working on the road 350 days a year is too much and I will never forgive Vince for letting the show go on after Owen's fall, after everything he gave to the company shoed he had no respect for his workers
Fridays : waiting for that next maven banger to drop!
I love that Fridays offer people a bit of a break

He is definitely an intimidating figure

What an ending to the video Maven!! ROUND OF APPLAUSE! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 GREAT VIDEO!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
This dude is fascinating to listen to, also so incredibly reasonable and sensible compared to similar people in his position who chose to grift after their wrestling careers
It is just so AWESOME to find Maven and watch his content. I am an 80s kid and I religiously followed WWF/WWE between 2001 - 2006. Maven was my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE. He was the perfect "Nice Guy".
Maven Is Making More Video Nowadays! Now This Is Excellence
We are going to try to out out more content this year
Totally understand where you’re coming from when you say it’s hard to come to grips with the man that’s basically been wrestling itself for decades will not be apart of wwe or wrestling moving forward. I looked up to Vince throughout my childhood all the way into adulthood. It broke my heart. I wanted to be Vince McMahon. Went from getting beat by his step dad in a trailer to a BILLIONAIRE. It’s sad all his achievements.. will never be remembered.. just what’s going on now.
Honestly, I think give it a couple years and most people will have completely forgotten about this and will go back to having nothing but praise for Vince as the greatest genius in the history of the industry
maven you’re the 🐐 man giving us the realest content on this app i know this gotta be a hard ass subject to talk about and you’re handling it with such honesty and sincerity it’s hard not to love you man
"He was in and out very quickly..." Not the best choice of words, all things considered.
Our boy Maven looking like default customizable character
With all the allegations happening, it seems to me that the Mr. McMahon character Vince created was the real life dark side of Vince the whole time. Scary...
Maven love ya brotha ❤ keep up the great content.
🙏🏽🙏🏽
I have an amazing story. One day I was driving home, when all of a sudden the Lord came to me in spirit. I felt very close to Him. I knew if I asked him to play any song on the radio he would, I guess to bless my faith.
So I said "ok, Lord play "Come as you are by Nirvana".
I turned on the radio and the song started playing right there on the spot, perfectly…
I started getting flooded with chills like a waterfall, crying, and trembling.
He stayed with me for 10 minutes in my driveway. until I got outta the car.
A couple months after that I started getting amazing prayers answered way more often, because it helped me quit doubting when I pray and I was lined up with biblical instructions. It's 6 years later and I still get answered prayers in Jesus name.
At least in a company ran by an absolute monster we get real genuine down to earth gems like you Mave!
What a brilliant, well-balanced and fair take on what is a tragic situation regardless of he is guilty or not. Fair play Maven, consider me subscribed!
It bothers me that maven shot this video inside a car but without a meat lovers pizza. His video about diet made me think driving and meat lovers pizza is how he relieves stress
dude...shutup
@MikeyMike-uu3fe or...maybe maven can do a special meat lovers and drive thank you video at 1 million subs?
Well it’s the session of Lent. No red meat on Friday
maybe he was on his way to pick up the pizza
I will always appreciate and respect Maven, for telling it how it is, and tackling subject matter other former wrestlers may not.
I love how tactful the content is presented. Great job Maven
Did you know Ashley? It's been so long and I can't remember who was in the company when.
I can't speak for Maven, but considering he's not that likely to see your comment among all the hundreds that get posted: I knew Ashley, she entered the WWE via Diva Search a few weeks before Maven was released. If they knew each other, they likely spent more time together at conventions after their respective WWE careers than during their time in WWE itself considering how brief the window of opportunity for them to cross paths there was.
I knew her, but In passing. Not a close relationship whatsoever. I feel for her family and loved ones. Hearing Paul speak about her breaks my heart
@@MavenKHuffman Wow, you did respond! Ashley and I were just friends, and we didn't see each other very often during the last couple of years of her life, but I miss her so much. Looking back it feels like somehow whenever I was feeling low, I'd look at my phone and there would be a message from her waiting for me, usually just her to check in on how I was doing. It was like she had a sixth sense or something. She was such an amazing woman. I don't want people to ever forget about her. It may too late for there to be justice for Ashley herself, but it's never too late for us to keep honoring her memory. This must be a really difficult time for her daughter, Alexa. At the same time I hope she can at least find some comfort in the recent outpouring of love there has been for Ash.
Thank you Maven. Your words mean the world to me, and it is obvious they come from a place of love. You're a good man.
Vince could had made Maven a multi millionaire in his time in the WWE if he wanted to. Also Vince could had offered Maven a job in his performance center in Florida like he did one of his favorites Shawn Micheals. No Maven wasn't was not one of Vinces, favorites during his time in the WWE which is why he's no longer there.
Never mind the fact that Maven didn't put in the work required 🙄
@@oz_jones But he did.
Maven you on a grind keep up great content
🙏🏽🙏🏽
I love how the WWE was with you and your mom. I wqs a junior programmer with a company and when my mom got breast cancer they were calling me 2 days later telling me to come back. I quit. Granted my mom had just been diagnosed and ended up beating it, but still to go from take time to only getting 2 days to be there for her was such bullshit. Good on Vince and them for being that way with you.
AEW or WWE should hire Mavin for commentary, or a manager. Would be Awesome on TV
That ending is fire when he says "So moving forward I'm gonna try to spend my energy with helping this business just move foward out of this black eye and not try to relive the nightmares of the past... I hope you join me for the ride"
THEN MOVES FORWARD
Let's be honest. Maven and his caterpillars was the only star of this class.
I love you Maven 🙏🏾. I’m sorry about your mother, it was rough for me to see you in that room with her knowing she’s gone
I think it's time we stop tolerating sociopaths just because they have a lot of money.
Maven with the excellent content we all want and love. This is great stuff man.
I thought you were stealing my car in the beginning.
Every Maven video is a must watch for me! Thank you for being honest. It’s incredible hearing that wrestlers can be checked out at their job before vacation like me at my desk 😂
You always felt Vince could be up to no good. The "Mr. McMahon" character felt a bit too real, especially when watching some of his shoot interviews.
I love how real you are, and how genuine and grounded you really are. It's a very RARE quality in people. Rock on, my dude!
Love you Maven... concerning Vince I don't know what to say but for me ...am gonna keep watching wwe and wrestling in general. I always enjoy ur content Much respect for you from Nigeria 🇳🇬
I’m calling it; Maven gets the call from WWE again one day. Probably not in a full time capacity but even as an entrant in the Rumble, I’d be so gassed. The pop would be sick aswell 🔥
Maven is a great guy. He didn't change his views of Vince just because of those incidents. Some people wait for something like this to start talking about stuff they never ever said before. Maven is consistent and knows how to differentiate things.
bro, he literally romanticized this piece of garbage with his spineless trash video, smh.
I don't generally comment on videos, why be one of a thousand, but this video hit a spot I can't explain. I completely understand where you're coming from, and I respect everything you said. This video hits me as honest as I've ever seen. Thank you very much.
You can still hold that memory dear since he cared about you and your family and treated your family well and cared about your mother
I agree! 💯
Maven, I stopped watching WWE when it started to become less family friendly back in 2000/2001 so forgive me for not knowing your name in the industry... But I have recently subscribed to your TH-cam channel because you are fantastic story teller and have such a lovely, calming voice. I could listen to you explain how you cleaned the floor with a toothbrush in a 200 part series 😅 anyway I am finding myself watching WWE now I have a family as it reminds me of the wholesome feeling old school WWF/WWE gave me ❤ love from England xx
It's so weird as a fan with Vince, I cant imagine wrestlers/superstars opinion on Vince now. I mean I grew up with Vince and the WWF/E - not idolizing the man but enjoying his product and appreciating Vince for his effort to bring weekly entertainment as the man in charge (granted it was an overall team effort.) Still waiting on everything to come out and the court case(s) for what becomes of these allegations but as Ron Simmons says.. DAMN .. Thanks Mav
Maven, you're a great storyteller and such a good soul! I love hearing your stories about the business and what you experienced when working for WWE. Keep it up!
That's the thing with Vince is that he's still human. He's done some horrible things, but there are plenty of positive stories too. It doesn't take away from how serious the allegations are but we have to remember he's not some mystical evil ogre, but a deeply flawed human being. Thanks for sharing the stories Maven.
Whenever I watch one of these 'in the car' videos I feel like he's driving out to the middle of nowhere to dispose of a body. 😂😂😂
John Cena should have had Maven write his answer to the question that Howard Stern asked him about Vince. John's lack of empathy for the victims and compassion for Vince was not a good look. Maven did a much better job IMO.
Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes answered said questions much better. I feel that Cena knows something we don't.
maven would you try commentary at ring side? you are by far a great story teller... I love to watch your videos so far
Thank you so much. I would most definitely try if given the opportunity
@@MavenKHuffman hope you get it, love your videos.
If Vince became Innocent out of all of this.
Just imagine his return to WWE!
Man that would be a hell of a return of all returns!!!

11:44 So, your opinion on what you heard when you worked for WWE was "if it didn't involve me, it was none of my business." Ok, so what changed from then to now? Or is it because since you don't work there anymore, it's easier for you to speak out? I'm so tired of former employees trying to take the high road on this situation, respectfully.
Your videos are a breath of fresh air, always enjoy watching
Thank you Maven for not only giving us banger content but also giving us your take on something that’s hard to talk about but that we were eager to hear your side of. Your viewpoint is understandable and we appreciate you sharing it. It’s hard to be vulnerable especially on social media but you do it anyways and we thank you. 💯💯
Maven I have a great video idea for you
