Former WWE writer says working for Vince McMahon was challenging because “it’s hard to work for bullies and psychopaths”
While speaking to After The Bell, former WWE writer Jimmy Jacobs commented on working for Vince McMahon. Here is what Jacobs had to say…
“I had a challenging time working for Vince. He was a crazy person. Vince McMahon was like a psychopath. That’s the sort of personality type he is, right? He’s an overt malignant narcissist. Not to use catchphrase words, because I’m not using that hyperbolically. I’m using that like that’s his personality type.
I was around Vince McMahon not very long before I saw, ‘Oh, I wouldn’t trade places with this guy for one second. Not for one second.’ Because for everything he has, he has nothing because he’s a psychopath. And when you’re a psychopath, you’re incapable of love.
And so Vince McMahon’s a bully. He’s a maniac. He’s an abuser. He’s all of the things that, you know, ‘Oh, this has come out. Is this like Vince?’ Every story you’ve heard about him, it’s something, like, true. That’s who he is.
So, yeah, it’s hard. It’s hard to work for bullies and psychopaths. That’s challenging, and I had a challenging time with that, and other people did too.”
