Freddie Prinze Jr. recently appeared on “The Masked Man Show” to discuss a variety of topics, including how he ended up working for WWE after a meeting with Stephanie McMahon.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On how he got the job: “It was not the plan going in. The plan was, I met this lady at a WWE event, Ric Flair’s last match, well his last match at that point … He’s like Barbara Streisand and her final tour every 10 years. But I met this lady, and we were talking wrestling and she said, ‘You need to meet my boss.’ I said, ‘Who’s your boss?’ She said, ‘Stephanie [McMahon].’”
On Stephanie McMahon suggesting he meet Vince: “I go and I meet Vince, and I had a great conversation with him and I kind of got offered the job in the room and just said ‘yes’ before I even spoke to Sarah [Michelle Geller] ’cause it just felt perfect and it felt right.”
Becky Lynch was a recent guest on the “Rosenberg Wrestling” podcast to discuss her match with Trish Stratus at the WWE Payback 2023 pay-per-view event, which is something she calls one of her favorite matches in her career.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On her match with Stratus: “Yeah, no, I love that match. That’s going to go down as one of my favorite matches, one of the matches that I’m most proud of.”
On why she loves that match: “I felt very, very in it the whole time. I think that’s how I measure how good a match is, is how present I feel in it. Sometimes you’re thinking about things because you have to think about a lot — it’s easier to kind of get lost in the present tense of a match when it’s on a pay-per-view because you’re not so beholden to advertisements and things like that. You have more freedom in that because usually you have to be thinking about break spots, you have to be thinking about going off-air if you’re in the main event on a TV show. With pay-per-view, you get that freedom to breathe and enjoy and be present and that’s one of those matches where I really, really felt in it.”
