On being worried about getting fired: “That was — we were World Tag Team Champions at the time. So we flew back thinking we’re about to get fired. We’re World Tag Team Champions, we’ve just been arrested in a foreign country. [We thought] ‘We’ve lost our jobs. Once Vince hears about this, we’re done.’ So we go to Raw the next day and we’re waiting. We’re waiting for somebody to talk to us and give us the ax. And we’re like, ‘You know what, if they fire us for this, we’re taking the tag belts home! They’re going to have to come to our house and get them. This is horseshit, we were looking out for the champ.’ Because if that guy would have hit Randy from behind — and he’s already hurt, there were cell phones. All it would have taken was a couple of people [taking some photos], the World Champion is down by some strange — like, it wouldn’t have been good for business.
“So we end up getting aggravated because nobody was talking to us. We tracked Vince down. And we said, ‘Vince, we have to talk to you.’ And we just laid it all out to him. ‘This is what happened, this is why we did what we did. And this was the repercussions of it.’ He sat there for — I don’t know, it felt like an eternity. But it was probably only 15-20 seconds, and he goes, ‘Oh, you know what boys, it’s good for the fans to get their asses kicked every once in a while [does Vince laugh]. Don’t worry about it, I’ll have the lawyers take care of it.’ And we walked away, and Lance and I are looking at each other, like, ‘What just happened?’ Because we went from preparing ourselves to talk to our wives about not having a job to ‘It’s good for the fans to get their asses kicked once in a while!’”
