Former WWE personality explains how listening to Vince McMahon put him in an embarrassing situation live on air
A former WWE personality was once put in an embarrassing situation because he listened to Vince McMahon. He explained how the incident took place.
Jonathan Coachman played a key role in WWE during the early to mid-2000s. During this time, he served as Vince McMahon's Executive Assistant and was also a backstage interviewer and commentator.
Coachman was no stranger to his fair share of embarrassing moments live on camera. One of the most memorable moments happened during an episode of WWE RAW when Coachman was speaking to Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler with his feet on the announcer's desk. Kane's music hit suddenly, and it frightened Coachman and caused him to fall off the chair, creating a hilarious moment.
When a fan asked him if this was planned, Jonathan Coachman replied that Vince told him to put his feet up on the table, and he had no idea what would happen next.
"Vince told me to put my feet up on the desk and basically mess with JR’s flow which wasn’t unusual or out of the ordinary. JR is a pro and has stuff written for every entrance and if you spoke over he would lose it. So I wasn’t thinking anything of it. And this happened and it’s so loud and so hot this is real."

Recently, Netflix released its documentary on Vince McMahon. As expected, the documentary raised a lot of eyebrows as it revealed several things about the former WWE Chairman. However, this does not seem to be the end of this chapter.
During a recent episode of The Coach and Bro Wrestling, co-hosted by Jonathan Coachman and Vince Russo, The Coach revealed that he was contacted for another project regarding Vince.
"I only think it's gonna get worse because, full disclosure, I got another call this week from another company that's doing another documentary on this whole situation. And where it will differ is the Netflix documentary, there was no finish line. There was no this is what happened to all the lawsuits or whatever. … Since there's no finish line, I think there'll be an appetite for another documentary that is absolutely in the works for what is the finish line," Coachman said.
It will be interesting to see whether this new project will include details from Vince McMahon's ongoing lawsuit by Janel Grant.
