Pro wrestling veteran Dutch Mantell shed light on Rousey's recent claim about the former WWE CEO and Prichard, stating there was truth in her statement.
The 74-year-old legend stated Prichard was known as McMahon's right-hand man for years, and even now, he wields considerable backstage influence. According to Mantell, McMahon's grip on the Stamford-based company extends far beyond the spotlight, with loyal lieutenants still stationed throughout various departments:
"I do think it's true. He is his handpicked guy on the scene and has been for years. So, I don't see why that would change now. I think we were talking right before we went on air; Vince [McMahon] still has his people in WWE. He still has this guy here, and these people here, all the way through the office, all the way down to the production," Dutch Mantell said.
