Hornswoggle: Being Vince McMahon’s Son Was The Best WWE Program I Was Part Of

Hornswoggle has fond memories of being Vince McMahon’s son.

Recently, Swoggle was interviewed by PWMania. During the interview, Hornswoggle shared that his favorite storyline was being the illegitimate son of his boss, Vince McMahon.

“Vince’s son for sure. Loved it. When they started the mystery of who the son is, we were two weeks in and Stephanie McMahon walked up to me backstage to do this shot and she goes, ‘this is going to be big.’ And I go ‘yeah,’ she goes, ‘it’s gonna be big.’ And I didn’t realise how big it was gonna be. It was the biggest thing I’ve ever done. Just unexpected and every week doing something or multiple things.

“There was the 15th anniversary RAW, I was on five segments that show like, I opened the show, and then I was the closing shot of that show. It was a whirlwind man and then all the house shows it was just busiest I could have ever been and it was a it was a moment in time where I never like I never expected it to be as big as it got,” Hornswoggle said.

In the same interview, Hornswoggle shared that he spoke about the storyline in his book ‘Life is Short’ as well.

“I talked about it in my book ‘Life Is Short’. I wish I would have asked him more questions like, between takes of waiting go live for a backstage thing, I wish I would have been like ‘hey, so what really happened with Nailz,’ or ‘give me the scoop on Hacksaw and The Shiek’ like just random things that he 100% would have talked about because he’s just open like that, or ‘how was setup for Wrestlemania 9’ like just stuff like that that probably no one cares about but it’s just stuff like that I wish I would have randomly talked to him about he is the most powerful man in wrestling. Especially at that time. I was watching my P’s and Q’s quite a bit.

“He was always approachable, completely with me. He was always approachable always had the office door open. For me to pop in and ask something. I feel that when people say unapproachable or standoffish, or the negative stuff it was because he didn’t automatically go with their idea. And nine times out of 10, their idea was to be world champion.”
