Anyone who ever did commentary for WWE likely heard Vince McMahon in their ear.
Some announcers have told horror stories of hearing Vince yell at them while they tried to relay information to the audience.
MVP managed to work his way around Vince's potential advice.
"I figured out something real quick. Vince would make suggestions on what to say, and I figured out real quickly, what I would hear in my headset, the mic would key, I know Vince was about to make a suggestion. I would say something before he could speak because I know whatever I say is going to be way better than whatever he suggested. I would hear the mic click like he was about to say something, and then I would say something, and I would hear the mic click out. That would happen all the time. I just knew he was going to say something and I would say something quick and witty and I would hear the mic key out. I guess he would go, 'Okay, that was good,'" MVP recalled while speaking to Donnie DaSilva and Jimmy Korderas on Huge Pop!
When asked if he was ever called out for his workaround, MVP replied, "No, never. He didn't know I was doing that on purpose."
