Nailz: Vince McMahon Squashed A Lot Of Livelihoods, He Ran Into The Wrong Guy

Nailz is a former WWE Superstar who’s time in the company came to an end following an altercation with Vince McMahon. While speaking to Dr. Chris Featherstone of Sportskeeda’s WrestleBinge, Nailz shared what happened at the meeting.

“Well, I just wanted to discuss the contract. And the different monetary… Basically the aspect that he owed me money and I wanted to get paid for the work. I wanted to get paid for the services rendered. And he promised me that I’d make a lot of money in WWF. And I believe that I fulfilled my part. I played the character well, I put people in the seats. And he didn’t fulfill his part and that was what we discussed. Was, ‘You owe me a lot of money. I want my money.’

“Well, No! You know, you have to stand up for yourself. I mean, you’re not a man if you let some other person step on you and treat you like a bug, and squash you like a cockroach. He owed me money. I believe that if people don’t stand up for themselves, there’s nobody going to do it. You have to do it for yourself. So… I… That’s the type of person I am. I stand up for myself and if I don’t believe in something, I’ll let you know. I’ll air my grievances.

People were afraid to talk to Vince McMahon

“And with him [Vince McMahon] people were afraid to talk to him. There were many many people that just wouldn’t go in and talk to him. And he would run through ‘em. He squashed a lot of people’s careers. He squashed a lot of people’s livelihoods. And people just didn’t say what was on their minds. They were afraid to talk to him. So… he ran into the wrong guy,” Nailz said.
