Former WWE writer comments on how wrestling fans in London, England “pissed off” Vince McMahon

During his podcast, former WWE writer Freddie Prinze Jr. reflected on the wrestling fans in London, England…

“I think London was the audience that made cheering heels acceptable and cool. I feel like they started that before AEW did, before WWE fans in America were starting to get hip to heels. In London, they were just like, ‘Look, we get these fuckers once a year. We’re cheering for whoever we want. If we like both dudes, both dudes are getting songs. If we don’t, they’re getting booed. That’s it. We don’t care how you book it.’ I saw it firsthand when Jeff Hardy and Undertaker went at it over there when I was at the company. I was like, ‘Man, they’re just cheering for whoever they want.’ It pissed Vince [McMahon] off. He didn’t like that.” (quote courtesy of Jeremy Lambert)
