During a recent interview with Wrestling Inc, WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long revealed that he stopped smoking marijuana while in WWE out of respect for Vince McMahon.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
Teddy Long on how he quit smoking marijuana for a while out of respect for Vince McMahon: “I said, ‘Hey man, my job is more important so I don’t want to let Vince down. That man gave me the opportunity of a lifetime and the reason I am where I am today is because of Vince. So, I quit, maybe about a year. I quit for a real long time. What made me start back, man, I think I just got kind of burnt out. I had been on the road for over 25 years of my life … I think I just kind of got stressed, then me and Chioda kind of started riding again.”
Long on how WWE used to have company meetings on marijuana: “It was going to kill our brain cells and it was gonna do this, and it was gonna do that, but you know I guess that’s part of it. They got paid to do their job and that’s what they did.”
