Brian had a problem with the interview? The hell you say...
If Vince listened to these wannabe fantasy booking smarks on the internet in the 90s, Austin and Rock would have been dead meat, Taker would have been forced into retirement and Malenko would have been world champion.
if Vince would have kept booking from 1995 onward Austin would be Chilly McFreeze, Dwayne a samoan prince, Taker a jobber and Malenko the umpteenth evil foreigner
@@staalhard666 Wrong, austin said no and undertaker was never a jobber. So that never happened.
@@badmartian320 you're not the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to reading comprehension, are you? Everything I said has been documented many times in wrestling litterature. But i guess the last book you ever touched was full of phone numbers. Or pictures to color in.
@@staalhard666 You’re right but you act like austin didn’t say no. When was the undertaker a jobber? You’re mad because you know he’s right and you’re the internet fan he’s talking about.
@@staalhard666 ooh such a burn🙄
I see many of us are fans of Pats show, and glad that everyone is letting Jim know that his interviews basically go this way for everyone. The dude is positivity personified, and if you can get Brock to say on a live interview that he felt a connection with the you via handshake then that says a lot. It’s truly crazy how small and unaware the wrestling bubble really is
Yep, same reason why he put over Vince's success and not other promoters which got Jim and other wrestling people all bent out of shape. Macafee just signed a 100 million dollar deal with Fan Duel, made 10s of millions playing football, to people like him success is different than the folks in the wrestling bubble. Yes other promoters got rich by normal people standards but none other than Vince made the type of money that outside celebrities or athletes would be impressed by which is why Pat made the comment about it.
Pat treated Vince the same way he treats rodgers and everyone else he has on. The guy just has positive interviews. That’s who pat is.
Love the way he does interviews moving around and jumping.
True, and I’m a fan. The “Before you, I assume some people had success in wrestling,” quote threw me off a little, but I still enjoyed the interview.
Saying that to Vince would be like saying to Rodgers “I assume some guys had success as a QB before you.” Like of course lol, what?
Unfortunately the wrestling community thinks everything is a work. Interviewing Vince was a dream come true for Pat there was no agenda
Yes
I mean he's employed by WWE, no doubt he was groveling and also provided with topics to avoid. Vince doing his first interview in ages with a WWE EMPLOYEE is not a coincidence
Remember Vince said himself that this wasn’t work to him, he’s literally doing it as a passion, that’s why he’s had such longevity in the business.
And everyone that doesn't have a rapport with him anymore hates it
He's had longevity because the WWE has been a monopoly for 20+ years. AEW is the first company since WCW that even had the national TV deals and budget to realistically compete with the WWE juggernaut
@@tracemcsorley4036 who said anything about AEW
Vince's "passion" is domination, monopolization, money, control, and apparently Samoan men in their 30s... NOT wrestling. If his passion was indeed wrestling, he wouldn't have ruined it while seeking all those other things over the past 40 years.
@@tracemcsorley4036 TNA were owned by a billionaire family and had Spike TV and some of the most iconic names in wrestling history. WWE are not a wrestling promotion and haven't been for 35 years. It's not like WWE were the only place on the planet putting out wrasslin
I’ve never seen Vince this personable & happy
Gay
@@HBKStyles BIG GAY.
Brian last is so negative about Vince and WWE everytime
Brian making fun of an aging 76 year old man....stay classy smh
I watch the pat Mcafee show every day. This wasnt special treatment for Vince they are very complimentary to every guest they have.
They just had Kliff Kingsbury on and Pat said three times “You’re the coolest looking dude ever!” It’s the show.
I always figured if there was a chance of an interview becoming negative that Pat would just pass on the interview altogether
Honestly he’d start killing the person for giving him a bad interview or they all would make fun of it after it ended.
Well you can the those two never seen the show
Yeah what did they expect? I thought the Interview was great and you could see a different side of Vince that i´ve never seen before.
Hearing Vince recall the story about the NWA promoters wanting to kill him was epic. That interview lived up to the hype
Of course its Vince so 90% was probably bullshit
@@kevindouglas5333 I mean the story has been proven by multiple people
@@kevindouglas5333 This.
@@corpyhogan4433 Proven or rumored?
@@kevindouglas5333 you must of thought him saying he doesn't focus on the negative was bullshit because negativity is definitely what you thrive off here.
If you watch Pats show this was no different than all his interviews. He's not a journalist he's a bro just having dudes on the show for a conversation.
Lmao. That is not the case. Vince owns Pat and his podcast, the interview is to promote WrestleMania, obviously pat couldn't ask heated questions or anything.this is about money and brand.
@@zitronoslen Vince owns Pat and his podcast? You honestly know nothing outside of wrestling, do you?
@@whatjimcornetteshouldhavesaid my bad, FanDuel owns Pat McAfee. Regardless, pat has his hands tied he is owned and controlled by ppl above him like Vince and FanDuel, therefore Pat doesn't have the freedom to ask Vince anything, the interview was very watered down.
@@zitronoslen thats fine and all. But that seems more like a judgement based off of not knowing how pat does interviews rather than facts.
Pat doesnt ask hard questions. So even if he didnt give af about who owns him, he wouldnt ask Vince different questions.
He's not Joe Rogan drinking and smoking and asking his guests uncomfortable questions to better understand them. His pods are all about hanging out and almost building people up.
@@DreadPages if you wanna think that, in television and radio, it's pure corruption and monopoly to control and manipulate the masses.im not trying to debate anyone or anything, just bring a different aspect to light. Appreciate you dread for the healthy conversation
"If everyone thinks you're an asshole, then don't try and change that perception." - Vince McMahon
I like it 👌 😏
Not at all what he said
And Brian Last is one of those people
Man you fucked that quote up💀
He was not wrong saying he doesn’t listen to internet fans . None of us have any idea how to run a billion dollar company, and Vince has done it for over 40yrs, yet people on the internet is still trying tell this man how to run his business.
Smarks will always be smarks.
Exactly... and alot of the internet community moves like the wind
They actually think he’s the evil Mr McMahon character in real life 😂
💯
This is why you have a successful billionaire and you have another billionaire who isn't. Tony can learn from Vince. To stop listening to the fans. Cause we don't know how to run a business.
If Vince listed to the IWC smarks he’d be challenging AEW and impact for ratings while putting on five star Meltzer approved classic matches that nobody watched
Hmmmm… Ironically Brian blows Jim constantly.
Brian Last is such a Vince hater, it was a good interview. Pat is a fanboy, like most of us, and it was a fanboy’s interview of one of his heroes.
Last is jealous he will never have this kind of fame like Pat does
Brian Last is full of himself
I mean, Vince isn't an angel here. lol
Brian Last is the voice of the OG negative smarks. Difference is he gets to profit off bitching off something. WWE and Vince keeps a lot of these dirt sheet guys and complainers employed and relevant.
Brian Last has his head up his ass when it comes to any opinions about Vince makes you wonder if Vince ever denied him a job or something.
Pat talks like he did to Vince to everyone he has on his show. It's just who he is. People who only listened to this show, and complained about it, just seem dumb
Or clearly haven’t seen Pat do many other interviews. He met a hero of his, how’s he supposed to be?
Yeah Pat isn't a confrontation guy.
@@chadwhitfield6946 I wouldn't say Pat's necessarily afraid of confrontation. He's a notorious risk taker and personally negotiated the deals regarding his show, most recently the one with Fanduel.
But Pat himself is a naturally positive guy and genuinely focused on bringing the best out of his guests, that there's no need for confrontation.
Yeah Pat isn't an journalist so he doesn't try to act like one, he was truly excited to talk with Vince and it was genuine. I do like Pat because he feels a lot more genuine than most interviewers out there.
Even if it's who he is, people can still dislike it. I know I did.
You know what I find funny is that there's people on twitter that hate WWE and Vince yet they watched every single bit of this interview and tweeted about it, of course bitching lol
What’s even better is Vince destroyed all the IWC smarks with on sentence 🤣🤣
They sure are dedicated ain't they...
The interview was great! Jim even identified the reason he found it boring. He knows and has been around Vince alot. I'd consider myself more than a "casual" wrestling fan and I've NEVER seen Vince this comfortable. Actually I don't think I've ever seen Vince just having a casual conversation with anyone lol
Totally agree
Same and I've watched wwe for about 35 years. This was a treat
Pat even got brock Lesnar to liven up and show people his real personality which was awesome. They shoulda been using this side of Lesnar for years. Hes such a likeable guy.
Yeah I can see how someone like Jim finds it boring because he already knows how Vince is like. To me it was very cool seeing him like that and he seemed very comfortable with Pat which is cool imo.
Vince Mcmahon must of like Pat Macafee.. You can tell who people certainly like on how their mood swings towards others are..
Literally no one wanted an angle, just a real conversation.
To be fair, all the Pat interviews are in this style
Did you notice how quick vince moved on when Pat mentioned vince being blown up in a limo and then returning the next week. Vince knew to not even acknowledge that 😀
Interviewing Lesnar, and getting more out of him than anybody ever, then getting Vince to speak as a somewhat normal person in a week is tremendous.
As for as McAfee, that is his style. He is there to promote and be positive about his guests and pump them up. That is his thing, because that is how he is naturally.
Being ignorant to what Macafee's show is, and Jim assuming the average guy knows all this pro wrestling minutia is preposterous. Last's take is pointless, not worth getting in to. Not listening to the entire hour and fifteen minute plus interview makes for a pointless discussion. So much in that interview to disect and they are talking about "no angle", all of a sudden giving Meltzer credibility. Or not talking about wrestling companies dead for well over a quarter century. Pretty weak effort.
Which is my main issue with Cornettes podcast. They don’t even watch the whole thing of whatever they are critiquing. It’s unprofessional and after listening to countless episodes it’s starting to wear thin and get harder to get through their ridiculous takes
#FSM The interview was really great, to have VKM share how he operates, feels about WWE (not a job and never retiring), going from living in a trailer to becoming the biggest wrestling promoter in the solar system, etc. is something I have never seen anyone acconplish.
Props to Pat, he did an absolute job interviewing Lesnar, the guy is a naturally positive energy magnet.
I usually agree with Jim but he is way off base here. Neither of these guys have ever seen an episode of the Pat McAfee show
Brian is unfortunately turning into a real one trick pony these days. If he’s ever sick Jim, I think I can fill in! All I need to do is give the most pessimistic, anti-Vince and anti-WWE take possible and juxtapose it with pretending i “begrudgingly” mark out for AEW while giving Tony as much goodwill as possible, right?
Could have said it better……Brian Last is a joke
Exactly it....compare this tripe to his constantly making excuses and then staying mostly silent while Jim criticized how Tony Khan handled the ROH announcement. It's blatantly obvious....I hope he doesn't think he's fooling anyone.
It sounds like Brian went into this interview just as angry as the AEW Twitter nerds did. It was an interesting podcast, and McAfee interviews are always laid back. People love hating on Vince, they really fell for the Mr McMahon gimmick
Last typically just sits there and let's Jim talk like the lazy asshole he is but when it's a chance to hate Vince he's giddy. Even talking about the man's marriage like a tabloid gossip magazine. I marvel at how people make a living just talking shit and reacting to something others are doing... Even if they themselves have never worked in that industry.
Because Vince was BS the whole interview but Vince is cool tho
Ok Jack Enyoff
What do you expect from that kaik.
This was a nice interview to watch. Good vibes all around. Humanizes Vince. Brian needs to get that stick out his ass
You can tell they have never watched Pat's show....
Why the fuck anyone would is beyond me!? How can you hear that idiot on commentary and think he deserves more of your time? unless you just have too much of it in the first place.
@@leothompson2777 He's more successful than you will ever be. Stop being a hater.
Pat praises everyone on that comes on his show and it’s funny how Jim never expresses hatred or anything toward Vince and he’s actually known him and worked w him, meanwhile Brian who Vince probably doesn’t even know exists just hates him for no reason lmfao
Oh Brian, for a guy that has a mediocre podcast at best (stadium arcadium vanguardium) you should listen to the PMS more often. He's literally changing how interviews and podcasts are done, for the better
Brian hating that Pat's newer in the podcast game and doing better than he ever could TBH.
Look at Pat’s subscriber numbers vs. Lass and Cornys..its laughable. It was a great interview, Jim and Brian only wish they had the success Pat does.
To be fair to Pat McAfee, every single one of his interviews are upbeat like this. His treatment was not exclusive to Vince.
McAfee's show is the one of the first major sports talk shows to not try and manufacture drama(because believe it or not, drama is nothing sports is short on, manufactured or not). One of the things that separates his show from other garbage such as ESPN and the various networks is that he genuinely tries to bring the best out of his guests. He lets them speak for themselves without trying undermine them to for some bullshit narrative and whenever a guest comes on, he always introduces them in a way to make them sound like a million dollars.
He did this for some young kicker in HS, who was only noteworthy for being a bigger kid, in addition to being a good kicker.
TL;DR, McAfee treats everyone this way and it's part of the reason his show is a massive success.
Goes to show energy is contagious. When you put out positive energy it breaks the tension in the room and induces comfort. Comfort brings out your true self in its most authentic state. And that was makes a great interview. Hell that’s what makes good conversation. It’s all about dealing with people. Pat clearly knows how to deal with people and once you master that skill you can really accomplish anything in life whether it be scoring chicks, finding new opportunities or just simply having less stress in life.
Fuck wwe but mcaffee is perfect for that brand, he tried to end the show at the 60 minute mark and vince was so into the interview he literally said, "what? That's it?" And the interview went on another 35 minutes
I love to hear Jim's take on Vince since he worked with him for so many years but why does Brian speak like he knows Vince personally. I've been listening to the podcast for a couple of years and maybe I've missed it on previous episodes but Why does Brian hate Vince and the WWE so much?
Yeah Brian does get a bit extra as hell sometimes. Jim would have more insight on Vince than him considering Jim was there when the WWF was at its heights
People just love hating Vince 🤷🏾♂️
Last represents the old heads who couldn't just move on from wrestling and found a community who just thrives off gossip and negativity.
Cause he’s a mark
@@davyjones2032 Its wild that you lack the self awareness to notice that right now you are being negative and toxic on this channel at the same time you are accusing others of being negative. 😂
Alot of people have sucked up to Vince over the years, but none of them have been able to secure this interview. Pat Macafee is a gem and the best thing to happen to WWE in years. He has the tools to deliver the product to the current generation better than anyone.
Honestly him and Graves should be the new JR and King.
@@nickonite Yea Graves is great too, immediately thought of him after typing that
I knew Brian would hate it 😂
He doesn’t watch Pat’s show or know anything about Pat as a person
I think people who don’t watch PMS on a regular basis can feel this way. But Pat’s show is all about having fun. He’s not a “got ya” type of interviewer. Plus, his show is still kinda new (unless you’re a fan from the beginning) and Pats been getting a lot of HUGE guests. He’s probably still in the “I can’t believe this is happening” stages lol.
Pat gets a lot of huge guests because frankly, he kisses everyone's ass. I get that he's just not that type of interviewer but i can totally see (and believe so myself) that these type of interviews can get kinda bland when every other thing the interviewer says is just praising the guest. We get it pat, vince has done a lot of incredible shit, every wrestling fan knows that, so ask him questions like an interviewer would about shit we don't actually know.
It's been crazy seeing the guests improve after Pat signed that big contract. I think it got a lot of people's attention.
Moving to the current studio was a noticeable step, getting Aaron Rodgers Tuesdays going was a big step, and now with that contract getting people's attention it's been an even bigger step.
It's also been nice these past couple years having a show that's mostly positive and fun. It's a palate cleanser for all the political stuff I worry about.
He is in that phase bcs he says all the time! hahaa
Exactly. No point of doing a hit piece. Pat's fans are probably full of people who don't watch wrestling at all anymore so they're just listening to the stories and remembers Vince's walk and feuds with Austin with a smile. Vince was shouting down most of the praise anyway.
So who is he and why was he able to get someone like Vince on?
I hope everyone drop the whole Saudi blood money argument after Vince’s explanation. No one care about what Americans believe. People live in their cultures the way they want. Wtr it’s right or not it’s nothing to judge on.
Jim cornette is a crazy leftist so don't expect him to start caring about America and their blood Money
Y’all are some haters … they gave LESNAR a great interview the Vince interview was great too . They made him look like a normal human being not a character.. y’all just mad because a non wrestling guy got the Vince interview..
I really enjoyed the interview. I wish Pat asked him some questions about his Father & Grandfather about how they originally started everything. I think that would have been interesting, but this was the most down to earth & personal we’ve seen Vince in a long time. Kinda reminded me of the old Vince in the 70s & early 80s when he was just being himself.
From my understanding he never really knew his grandfather.
This review was such a let down. What a buzzkill on what was a great interview by Pat. It's supposed to be fun and light, that's the point of his show.
I get it, ppl get it, you don't get it. It was light and fun, but it obviously wasn't real, wasn't authentic, pat couldn't ask about Owen Hart or good ol racial jokes with dx and nation of domination....that was the good days of America, when we weren't so soft and offended. We both should be reading this stuff laughing and chilling, not being gas lit.
Pat fuckin humanized Vince! The interview proved that Vince is just 1 of the boys at heart. Man his vocal chords sound shot
Brian’s hate for Vince makes this almost insufferable to listen to. Brian Last Legend in his own mind.
To confirm: yes Vince walked in, and yes he walked out. No assistance required.
He had some flashy sneakers on as well 👟 👟
(Anything that isn’t boring black, or white is flashy to me)
I thought he did! Corny pays such little attention sometimes
At least Vince McMahon looked a lot better than he has recently on WWE TV….. 👀
Cornette and Last clearly don’t watch McAfee show🤦🏿♂️. He’s not a fucking interviewer he’s a host of the successful podcast. That’s it and expecting more means you didn’t do your homework.
It's par for the course with them (especially Brian) on anything WWE-related and especially Vince-related. It's similar to them complaining they can't keep up with plotlines when they skip through 70% of shows and even then can't be bothered to watch short recaps. Brian also has such a hate boner towards Vince that it makes any talk about him on Cornette's shows unlistenable to me.
“He’s not a wrestling fan, he’s a WWE fan!” 🤬 you Brian Last.
It's almost like Pat is a WWE employee....nevermind that's a crazy thought.
I think JC missed the point. This was about having fun. That is what his show is all about. Just plain having fun. Not a random interview.
Anything involving fun, Jim Cornette is oblivious
Yeh because Vince is well known for his fun loving light hearted approach to media and promotion😂
@@andrewbowyer5043 Cornette's not oblivious to fun. He hits up several fast food joints for cheesburgers frequently.
@@osaji922 Now that's solid, irrefutable evidence that Corney loves fun!
@@jrios29 The audacity of some people. smh
This interview might have been the best thing this week in wrestling. It blew away Tiny Khanmans big announcement and his upcoming PPV. Say what you will about Vince and the way he runs WWE, I loved hearing some of his stories. We also so a rare human side to Vince. I'm also excited for the McAfee/Theory match at Mania we are going to get now.
You live a very sad life
@@btmz1753 why cause he found the interview more interesting than Tony’s 100th huge announcement. And the fact that Pats podcast went from 16k to 76k viewers the minute Vince showed up shows who’s the bigger draw.
Other important stuff happened?🤔🤣
@@FightM1lk Vince fits nicely in your mouth doesn’t he?
@@btmz1753 says the person who rides on Tony Khan
The story about some of the NWA promoters talking about hiring a hitman to have Vince killed was pretty interesting. I’ve heard the story before, but never from Vince’s lips.
I gotta check it out then just for that reason
lol vince couldnt care what you or anyone says its all business LOL i dont blame him, you can hate him, dont like what he does but he still profiting without anyone opinions on what they think. Good for him
Brian gotta think his Vince’s impression is still funny. Just stop it bruh.
Brian is taking on a very stalker, bunny boiler type role when he mentions Vince Mcmahon or Triple H especially, like they've personally wronged him in some way, maybe they refuse to take his calls, who knows
Can’t wait to see Brian Last at 80 years old. Dude runs his mouth way too much. His hatred for Vince is toxic. Brian Last is a disgusting individual. Anyway, Pat did a great Interview. 🙂
Nothing is more irritating than Brian talking about Vince like he knows him!🙄
Brian Last hates Vince, so I don't care what he says. I watched other folks reactions and they said it was good interview. I watched and I agree. Plus folks thinking Vince was going to have a match, were stupid to begin with. Vince rarely does interviews and this was something. Vince showed he is relatable which something a lot of guys have said, but no one has seen. Yeah, he could have dug in aon a few questions, but like Vince said, no matter what his answer is no one would care, folks think he's an a**hole, they always will think that. As for business this is why he wins, he doesn't care, nor he should.
Last deep down is a huge AEW mark, and Corny wishes that the business decisions he made in his career had a fraction of the success Vince has had. Corny is good at one thing, talking about AEW. Any critisicm he has for WWE is laughable because all people have to do is look at his success in ROH, TNA, and Smoky Mountain…all failures for Cornette. Now he is stuck at home peddling his cheap action figures and having a podcast with a nobody AEW mark like Brian Last. Vince could buy and sell both of them
Didn’t look senile to me.
Brian is so insistent that people in WWE aren’t happy. How the hell would he know?
Never really got agitated at Brian but someone thats riding cornys coattails needs to put some respect on pats name and Vinces I disapprove of a lot of stuff wwe has done but I don't let that hate rule me like this guy does he holds grudges like a woman and last I checked they've never wronged him unless he got rejected for a role he wasn't talented enough to earn and pat has put his all into everything he's done could you do the same Brian last jeez dude lighten up you make corny look light hearted smfh
Jim needs to stop reading the observer
That's the only explanation to "this didn't add to the Vince vs Pat angle at all" mindset. Pat was never going to face Vince unless you read the observer lol
Brian always disrespects Vince, the guy is almost 80, we all know his mistakes but literally all of these f’n Wrestlers have the biggest problems, cough cough Ric flair, but that doesn’t take away from what they did for the business.
Exactly. Brian has a lot of knowledge about wrestling but he's never been in the business like Corny has nor worked for Vince.
Brian is a jabroni.
Didn't know the entire Pat McAfee fanbase would take over the comment section.
Was a great interview quite frankly vince respects pat! Hence why he went on the show folk can talk shit but anybody with a braincell can see vince enjoyed it and enjoyed running through the podcast.
I think Pat getting his big contract got a lot of people's attention. Especially at WWE where he became one of the biggest earners in the building.
There was nothing wrong with the positive nature of this interview. It was an excellent interview and still gave us an in-depth look into Vince McMahon, without it being confrontational. Pat did a great job. Vince showing he has some sense of humor was great. One of the best wrestling interviews out there.
Brian Last will never appreciate Vince- it’s crazy. Plus a WWE fan, not a wrestling fan? Brian sit the hell down.
Exactly pal. Vincent is a sport's entertainment genius
You have to be joking. One of the best wrestling interviews put there? What the hell are you talking about? I can't disagree more.
Pat's schtick is he's positive. It's kind of the ying to Cornette's yang.
Brian Last is so butthurt and caustic when it comes to Vince McMahon
It was Good. I laugh at some of these commentators on various platforms that act like they can run a multi billion dollar company or even with AEW acting as if they would do better running a new wrestling promotion. Its hilarious.
It was refreshing and authentic I thought. Mcafee was genuine, no agenda, unfiltered and when he was talking up vince, it wasn't arse licking. You can tell pat genuinely cares about vince and vice versa. There's a connect
And in doing so, vince was relaxed as he knew he could trust pat in a sense and his human side came out.
When pat said about (in his own words), "youve had some great ideas and basically terrible ones", made me laugh. Anyone else i reckon vince would of got defensive, but pat was talking to him mutually in a sense.
(What I thought anyway).
Do see vince in a different light. Especially the childhood beatings and trailer park (i never had a clue!)
Must of been hard for jim, because he knows/knew vince, these stories etc.. so to listen to it..
One day, id like to see Jim interview him.. there would be some nostalgia on vinces part and once more, he knows with Jim what you see is what you get, so the barrier would be off.
I enjoyed it anyway..
The whole reason Pat's show has taken off is because he isn't a part of the normally toxic sports interview culture.
Yeah, I don't know why Brian and Jim didn't really like this interview because imo it was great and it has shown the much more human side of Vince which was very enjoyable to see imo. I do hope Vince will do more interviews with guys like Chris Van Vliet because Chris is a great example of an interviewer who knows his shit and makes other people he interviews be comfortable with him as well which is nice to see.
Vincent Kennedy Mcmahon! Great businessman, top 5 heel,still jacked, mentally tough, doing what he loves. He deserves his respect for all the good things he's done and definitely skin as thick as his suits.
The saddest part is all the smarks who will talk shit about him don't do so because of deaths , allegations, or more serious things that happened in WWE. Nope it's purely because he didn't book something they wanted 10-20 years ago or things CM Punk told them lol.
fake altruists who wouldnt give two shits about the dirty and shady things that have happened in the WWE in years past, if they werent fans to begin with.
Brian Last is so bitter towards Vince, it's weird
can tell you guys dont watch Pat. Thats his normal interview style. He's full of praise for all his guests
No the smarks have to prove a point for some weird reason on here. Brian Last enables these guys.
Do these guys not realise Pat McAfee is a WWE commentator right now? They keep talking about him like he's an outsider.
"Vince just looks old" - Jim Cornette
It's almost like that's what happens as you get older and Jim cornette is supposed to be this genius according to fans🤷♂️
I’m into wrestling again for the first tine since attitude
Thanks Pat
Tell us how The Midnight Express would have done it.... That's what everyone is dying to know 😂
Yeah Jim and Brian go kind of overboard on Vince, they talk about how old he is but then expect him to act like he's 45, dude is 80 most people don't make it to that age or are in assisted living
Vince looked physically well in that interview compared to months prior
It was nice to see Vince relaxed. I enjoyed it.
The interview wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t up to its potential either. I want someone who knows wrestling, has no ties to WWE, has a show that has no time constraints and isn’t afraid to ask Vince ANYTHING. Someone doing an interview like that with Vince, it could be a 20 part podcast series that just covers his whole life and career. That would be the ultimate.
Pat tells everyone how great they are. Vince was truly honest in this interview. Everyone enjoyed it. No need to over analyze a conversation.
He was not truly honest at all lol
When you don't hear Vince's voice ever, which is the case for literally everyone, just hearing the basic info directly from the source is valuable and fascinating. We don''t need a Rosebud moment. What I found fascinating about the interview was that Vince could speak about his major international multi-billion dollar corporation in a very low key manor and then comparing and contrasting that to Tony Khan who gets all self-congratulatory about making stupid money decisions like buying ROH or adding a WWE Cast-off. Also, what is the deal with JC's sidekick talking about Vince and Linda being not really married? Does he have some sources that nobody else has? Sidekicks are like buttholes, every podcaster's got one and they are all FOS.
Brian Last, who you only referred to as “sidekick”, has plenty of connections all over the wrestling industry and doesn’t always show his cards
@@normandave3429 OK, random guy on a pro wrestling TH-cam channel comments section. Brian Last, whose name I had no idea of, despite the fact that I listen to Jim Conette's TH-cam clips is a sidekick, and a yes man, and not an authority on Vince McMahon's marital relations.
@@BUStedLosAngeles when Brian was 12 he was going on road trips with wrestlers, this man knows the business and he knows wrestling, also Jim is technically the sidekick because as he has said many times to Brian “it’s your show” which it is, it’s managed by Arcadian vanguard thru Brian Last. He prob knows just as much if not way more than Conrad Thompson, a well known “sidekick” aka wrestling podcast genius.
Also Brian last disagrees with a lot of shit Jim says, he doesn’t really hate Kenny Omega, Corny is prob slowly rubbing off on him but the fact he doesn’t hate cornys secondary arch nemesis (we all know the first) shows he isn’t a yes man.
@@OVO-Adolf my cat knows more about pro wrestling than Conrad lol he's just a presenter ans a true yes man to the likes of JR. Brian Last has some credibility, but it's true that most wouldn't know who he was without Corny and he's not on the same league as Jim woth experience or knowledge!
@@OVO-Adolf no sidekicks dude..they’re business partners and Corn had his Q&A segment and story time long before brian came along whom like you said is connected to alot of insiders who still report on this shit like its worth it last has his own shows and podcasting stable..they’re both fine w/o the other but better together
what fucking interview did ya'll watch? there wasn't that much "blowing" he did thank him for coming to do the show a lot. The other no name host I never heard of until this podcast has never seen any other Pat interviews, he's very friendly with all guests. And they did address the angle for Mania. Said internet has it I was suppose to start something on here. So you clearly didn't watch a damn thing about the interview just skimmed through it. just a "mark" hating no matter what imo.
Brian Last talking about not having to blow people, yet every week for AEW, he's blowing the AEW roster for every piece of crap they are involved in. Even when Corny rightfully shits on something that's obviously trash, Brian will come in and try to convince Corny that it was actually great.
"Say what you will about blank... but they've got potential." "For their style it was one of the better matches" "If you can look past some of the goofy stuff, I thought it was great". You'll never hear that type of defence for WWE matches from him.
Got to love the experts in the comments saying "that's what Pat does", like this isn't what Cornette does 😂
Excellent point
Brian" To his Credit, Tony Khan...." Last .
Everytime Jim and Brian DON'T say anything positive about Vince, there is a weird subset of people here who get upset about it.
well heres the thing I dont think brian has ever said anything positive about vince since the start of this channel
It's fine if they hate on Vince, but don't hate on Pat for doing the same show he always does and don't hate on the fact "they didn't further the Vince vs Pat angle" that was completely made up by Meltzer in the first place. This was exactly what a Pat interview is and more.
Some people said “I can’t believe Pat was allowed to ask him about aew“. People are so brainwashed, Vince doesn’t care.
And honestly Pat doesn't care, he has no filter 😅
@@shayurmohun5435 his inadvertent reference to Benoit when he mentioned Vince blowing up in the Limo and then coming back the next week 😂😂😂
Plus he mentioned them so fast that its easy to miss him speaking about it.
@@t.c.8299 that's why like Pat no nonsense and cool and straightforward
Exactly, AEW has spent 2 1/2 years constantly bashing the WWE and Vince brushed them off with a 5sec response.😄
Brian hates Vince McMahon along with WWE and wishes they cared. Vince McMahon does not know who or what a Brian Last is…. Honestly aside from being Corny’s co-host I don’t care to listen to him at all.
It was a good interview, I thought it was entertaining
I really love that Vince doesn't see running the company as work, but rather as just doing what he loves. I respect the guy a lot
I loved and appreciated every minute of the interview. I can see why a guy like Jim, though, wasn’t entertained. He spent years with him.
I’m pretty sure Brian can’t say anything positive about Vince. Which is funny because he’s never met him. And the comments on Linda and Vince’s relationship…really? How does he know? Like what?
Jim: They specifically said to me, "Don't thank Vince." They told Ricky and Robert, "Don't thank Vince." For what? Not hiring us all those years?
Can't argue with that. But regarding Jim's take on the interview, I think he was just too close to it. As he says, he knew most the stories so would obviously come across as dull. But I'd say the opposite about his take on Pat being "not a natural journalist/interviewer" because he arguably had Vince the most comfortable he's *EVER* been during a public interview. To have a guest feel that comfortable shows he *IS* "a natural."
That's why am a big fan of the Pat McAfee show, Pat and the boys have fun n make things fun for the guests. Brian n Corny don't watch Pat's show enough, he hypes up ppl a lot. For the Brand!
He's annoying a.f
Couldn't even watch the interview
@@jcc3333 But you're here for the review of the interview you didn't watch?
@@jcc3333 Is it because you're old and out of touch?
Great interview.
I thought the interview was great and learned a few things about Vince, as many people did. You guys seem to not like anything nowadays 😂
If it was CM Punk on Pat’s show moaning and complaining like a petulant emo teenager about how badly everyone has treated him this video would be 45 minutes long and filled with praise
I am not a fan of Vince but most people always want to go after him, I thought the interview was good because it humanized him
I thought it was an alright interview. A little bland, but an interesting insight into Vince's natural demeanour
I was more surprised that he said wrestle than anything else he said in the interview.
I like cornettes drive thru but it’s obvious these guys are just jealous they could never land Vince on their lil show. Their takes have been reaching Bully Rays level and Brian can’t talk bout Pat blowing Vince when he blows cornette on the daily
Vince straight lied. He hasn't listened to the fans in a LONG LONG TIME. 20+ years
Boy am I glad to see that the comments are on the side of truth and fairness. I mean really, something is changing. The internet seems to be more loving towards Vince and the wwe. Sure, the media and people like Last and channels like wrestletalk hate wwe, but fans of pro Wrestling are remaining truthful. If something is bad on the show, like Rollins vs Fiend in hell in a cell (worst match I've ever seen), they will call it out. If wwe does something good like Rollins vs Roman at Royal Rumble, they will praise it. And I also like that more and more people are seeing Tony Khan for what he is; an egomaniac who unlike Vince, likes being praised. The interview was good, but if you hate Vince like Last, you won't enjoy it, but if you like the business, you will.
“Did somebody talk Vince out of it?” No. It was never going to happen. Y’all just chose to give Meltzer credibility believing his “reports”.
It was a work. We didn't see Vince McMahon. We saw Mr. McMahon talking like Vince McMahon on a few occasions but very much still in character.
That interview was fucking awesome! All I wanted was for Vince to say fuck and he did!
