...Why would it be bad to say "Vince" in a Hall of Fame speech for the company he owns? I totally get that. I can see where he'd think others wouldn't find it entertaining to hear "first of all I'd like to thank the boss for the opportunity" in every speech.

...Why would it be bad to say "Vince" in a Hall of Fame speech for the company he owns? Likely put in place because every single talent has a lot to thank him for and if he allowed it or seemed to appreciate people playing into his ego that the Hall of Fame ceremony would actually last a decade instead of just feeling like it. I can buy this story. Sean says it was the guy directly above him, his producer that told him the information. That seems pretty reliable and close to the source. As to why DX are allowed and Bret isn't? Because the DX boys were also going to goof on him. It was in fun, it was a different context. They were the exception, not the rule.

Sean been smoking that peace pipe He sure as crap looked like he was blitzed during the speech...He was jittery as hell, forgetting his words and pacing, and also his pupils were HUGE...it was kind of scary to watch if you look at it from that perspective

He probably had someone rehire Jim Ross then immediately called him and fired him

I don't think I'd last a day working for this company without turning into Michael Douglas in Falling Down.

The saddest thing to me is that I did not realize that Skandor Akbar died nearly a decade ago. I missed that sad detail. Cancer sucks.

Yeah, that sounds utterly psychotic.
In general I find it pretty hard to really have the slightest bit of respect for Vince as a person. He just seems like such a miserable asshole.

The person who should get the blame in that segment is Triple H, shouldn't the buck stop with him given his position in the company

It probably won't, but I hope this becomes a thing because that is some insane, heartless bullshit.

I mean, I kinda get why Vince would be like "Don't mention my name", as it's not about him, it's about the guys and girls being inducted. At the same time, I don't see why these guys who are genuinely grateful to Vince for an opportunity shouldn't be allowed to express that gratitude in their speech.
Either way no one should be fired for it.
