Former WWE announcer Justin Roberts recently spoke with The Daily Herald to discuss his book, “Best Seat in the House: Your Backstage Pass Through my WWE Journey.” Below are some interview highlights:

How he would describe his new book:

“It’s a love story, in a weird way. Like, my marriage to WWE. My very abusive marriage,” he said, laughing.

Q. So I’ll just ask you straight-up, is JBL a bully?

A. A lot of people in the company, the upper management, have a bully mentality. I hope in speaking out, and being honest, it makes a difference. I hope (WWE) becomes a better place for the people there now. I spoke out not to go after the company, but to bring awareness to certain issues.

Q. If WWE called you tomorrow and asked you to come back, would you?

A. Absolutely not. I was able to live my dream. I couldn’t even fathom this as a kid. I had a good run … but I wasn’t treated well by upper management and I wouldn’t want to put myself through that again.
