On the Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson said Vince McMahon was unaware Gallows played the Festus character back in 2007-2008. This is what Anderson had to say:
“The best part of the Festus character is that we heard from Talent Relations, or the Head of Talent Relations is that Vince doesn’t even remember that he was Festus.” Anderson also shared a story about Mark Carano: “We go up to the Gorilla Position, and Mark Carano would say, “I’m going to go tell Vince and remind him that you were Festus”. I would say, don’t tell Vince, I need this run right now.” Gallows also said: “I don’t know if we’re even allowed to say the word, but my wife didn’t even know that I was Festus when I married her, which is real.”
