Commentary
By Scott Keith on 3 June 2018
Scott,
You mentioned how Vince is in everyone’s ear to the point of sterilizing (sorry….branding) the product so much it makes a guy wanna watch it all on mute.
Why the change? Network deals? Stock prices? Old age? Less trust in the new gen? I so miss the days where Gorilla, Jess, Brain, and even Piper and Macho would reference old “beefs” with inside jokes and jibes. Not listening to Corey Graves tell me Rollins is an architect and Reigns has the biggest yard or whatever.
Less trust. It seems to stem from Vince's control issues, because as he was able to bring in new people to replace guys like Gorilla, he made sure to train them to act as his avatars and get across exactly what he wanted them to. If you notice, the verbiage they use is just what Vince himself used to use when he was doing commentary. Vince gonna Vince.
