Vince McMahon appears on RAW to promote interview appearance
WWE CEO Vince McMahon made a surprise appearance on Monday Night RAW to promote an upcoming interview.
The Chairman, who has made several appearances alongside rising star Austin Theory in recent months, will appear on the podcast of current WWE commentator Pat McAfee in an upcoming episode.
Theory gave some background on Pat McAfee, noting that he was a former NFL player and that he had signed one of the world's most lucrative podcasting deals. It was also revealed on RAW that this will be Vince's first sit-down interview in 20 years, with his last interview, a controversial affair with Michael Landsburg in which Vince flipped papers out of the interviewer's hand.
Vince assured Theory that it "wasn't that kind of show" before storming off-camera, with Austin ending the segment by talking to himself.
Relax @austintheory1, The @PatMcAfeeShow isn’t THAT kind of show... #WWERaw https://t.co/qhzu2IvFO8
McMahon's appearance on McAfee's show is scheduled to take on this coming Thursday and will air on both YouTube and SiriusXM.
