Recently retired and/or disgraced far-right wrestling mogul Vince McMahon is once again having his past aired out by his own former wrestlers.
This most recent display of the former CEO’s business was made on wrestler Kevin Nash’s Kliq THIS podcast. On it, Nash re-aired a story told by his late friend and colleague Scott Hall, in which he recounts McMahon’s “first homosexual experience.”
It apparently all started with McMahon pitching a new storyline to the wrestlers. According the Hall, the owner thought they should spice things up by having another wrestler have a gay crush on him.
Then, seemingly unprompted, McMahon pivoted to his personal life.
“He goes, ‘Let me tell you about my first homosexual experience’,” Hall told the audience. “I remember sitting — me and Kevin were both sitting in Vince’s office at TV — I looked at Kevin and my first thought was, ‘As opposed to your most recent?'”

He then went on to recount the experience secondhand, to a few too many laughs.
“He was talking about when he was living in North Carolina and was hitchhiking one time,” Hall recalled. “I don’t know anything about Vince’s past, but I’m thinking, hitchhiking from where, the pool to the country club? Like what?
“He said some guy picked him up and was like rubbing his hand on his leg,” he continued. “I’m thinking okay, now you told me. What does this have to do with wrestling?
“I remember being really resistant to it. That wasn’t the way we were doing business.”

It’s surprising to think that this strongly pro-Trump, far-right business man would not only readily offer up this story, but include it as a pitch for a story for the WWE.
Hall specifically mentions that the WWE at the time was “real big on family entertainment,” yet somehow, McMahon seemed to think that this gay plotline would be a camp good time for audiences.
McMahon recently stepped down amid allegations of affairs with former WWE employees and hush money payments, so maybe this isn’t the worst bit of his business that could possibly be broadcast right now.
Hear Scott Hall recall it all in his own words:

So a big wrestling fan mate of mine told me Vince would occasionally “audition” wrestlers he fancied, casting couch stylee… Doubtless of both sexes. Let’s just call him sexually greedy, rather than analyse his swingometer.

It was more than a power trip. Years ago, when Hulk Hogan was on the outs with Vince during the steroid scandal he testified at he was being interviewed and talked freely about Vince and his openly gay right hand man “frolicking in the snow” with several handsome young wrestlers on the slopes at a private ski lodge. And hinted he could get more graphic but then caught himself.

Pat Patterson? Those rumors had been plaguing him since the 70s which I overlooked cause a lot of men who were out got the dreaded pedophile label no matter what occupation, than the AIDS epidemic didn’t help matters. If the rumors lingered through the 90s however, there might be something to the rumors. That same period was when Shawn Michaels was who Vince was trying to make his next huge star, giving him world title championships and basically the run of the company with his friends called the Kliq, there were always rumors that there was more to Shawn and Vince’s relationship especially after the infamous Montreal Screwjob. Shawn was never much of a draw ratings wise as influential and acclaimed as he was and Vince was always about ratings and if he knew you weren’t even close to that Hogan in his prime ratings draw, you were of no use to him. That he was so adamant about making Shawn the biggest star in the company despite the receipts saying otherwise and that Shawn had the amount of pull that he did, becoming the biggest diva prick in their history, people figure he was Vince’s own personal boy toy. Some say this gorgeous Adonis named Austin Theory was in that same position up until he was forced to step down, but can you blame him? If you’ve seen Austin Theory you’d know what I mean.
