That was great! Only a handful of guys who you'd get that straight up answer out of. I think most guys are still concerned Vince WILL be back & they MIGHT just want a job some day. Honestly, I'm with them. Never count out The Genetic Jackhammer.
When I left the governors office I took the phone with me that requires the other phone have a matching encrypted key, i.havent had a phone call with a non diplomat in 20 years, The American diplomat to Bulgaria has been making my dental appointments cause I can't reach Dr Greene on my phone
Well, he couldn't screw with anyone at all unless they were willing to let him. Anyone not putting his paycheque above their principles, is immune to him, and just gets fired. That's why Hogan got on so well with him - 'Cus Hogan was bought and paid for. It's also why any big star coming in from another promotion was basically made into a jobber. At least at first. If they wanted to get back to the top of the card, they had to do it by proving their loyalty to Vince. The only exception being if they brought in a metric fuckton of money. But vince still had ways of making sure they didn't undermine him in any way.
He sits absolutely still the entire interview. I've never seen anyone stay so still. And then once he gets to the PTSD he begins rocking back and forth in a comforting motion. And he's not lying. This is a very calm and well collected man who becomes very stressed all of a sudden. The body language is dead on.
I noticed that too. Cause he stopped using his hands when he was telling his stories when it hit. And his arms were still to his sides. And I he must have been fidgeting cause the mic was shaking too. Mans a still very sharp with his stories, dates locations and all the names. Hope to see him induct Cyndi Lauper into the WWE Hall of Fame.
@@richborn6700that was kinda sad to see. sure i understand but the video he made after where him and Will Sasso tore into apart and it was just so uncalled for
@TheNinthHeart Are you calling Undertaker a clown? What a rare comment. It's the first time and last time I'll probably ever read that unless somebody wants to be a smart ass and say it right off of this message, it'll never happen.
This was such a joy all three of you are beautiful folks. Hope karrion gets his big moments and wins very soon. He seems like such a kind man who's actually interested into what life is about and people.
Chris does such a good job interviewing his guests. He asks the questions and gives them the time to answer. Too many folks out there are trying to interrupt the guests and add their own commentary.
The Rock and Jesse Ventura are the top two wrestlers that have been successful and have done more with their lives OUTSIDE OF WRESTLING. 🏆However, Jesse Ventura takes the #1 spot: • Governor of Minnesota • Hollywood Actor • Navy SEALS & Vietnam Veteran • Taught at Harvard • TV Program Host • Legitimate Conspiracy Theorist • Book Author • Mongols Motorcycle Club (before he was a wrestler) • Body Guard for Rock bands • Important Lawsuits (Suing Vince McMahon for royalties, Chris Kyle to clear his name and TSA.) ....and more! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
@guileniam 3rd Mayne. You're forgetting Hogan and Cena, however. Cena is starting to find his footing outside of Wrestling. Hogan broke the ceiling for the pro wrestlers, making it outside of wrestling. Piper, also had a hand in this.
I could feel Jesse in the moment when he got a trigger about his service. I'm an Army vet and you see that rocking behavior in group stuff about PTSD or anxiety. You can't predict what thoughts or events will put your mind there. I will often find it's some thing about someone else I was with or thoughts about kind still being here when others aren't and dealing with that. I think the idea that people are still going through that kind of thing when you are sitting around and comfortable can get to me. Good job staying present Jesse!
This is probably the best Ventura interview I’ve ever seen!!! Chris you actually interviewed Jesse!! You didn’t just sit there and listen to him talk entire time!!
Jesse Ventura's appearance today was nothing short of remarkable. At 73 years old, his presence and eloquence continue to captivate audiences, reminding us why he remains an enduring figure in the world of entertainment and beyond. His candid reflections on his relationships with Hulk Hogan and Vince McMahon, as well as his pending return to WWE, only highlight his unwavering dedication to his craft and his fans. Moreover, his rendition of 'Eve of Destruction' showcased his versatile talent and deep connection to the art of performance. It's inspiring to witness someone who, through the power of manifestation and sheer will, continues to live life on his own terms. Kudos to Jesse Ventura for not only entertaining us but for embodying the essence of resilience and authenticity. 🎨❤️🎨❤️🎨❤️
The way he talks and doesn't let up makes for great interviews if you can hear him speaking. Jesse is the man!! Proud to be from the great state of MN!!
This interview is going to blow up once the reporters get a hold of it Chris, i just have a gut feeling, i watch every week, and this just hits, hes so unfiltered
12:18 This has to be the most honorable stamp of approval I've ever heard a legend say to new generation talent. "When I kick the bucket, you can replace me."
Got a bit awkward during the music "trivia" with the age gap showing but otherwise this was stellar. I have no ties to millitary (hell im not even from anywhere in NA) but seeing him struggle and then explain what caused his PTSD was gut wrenching especially because nothing has changed since whenever Jesse went through this. Great work Chris you seem to be able to make the people feel safe and open up to you without having to lead the interview much, thats a very unique skill to have.
@@macdaddymario who is? what's this in regards to? No idea why I was tagged from a video I watched a while ago. Pretty creepy and weird. The only thing that lives in my head isn't rent free and that's skateboard tricks and my partner definitely not men lol
Best interview by far on this podcast. I am not even being biased at all either. I knew of Jesse Ventura from the movies and few times I heard him on commentary. The way he defended himself on his career, owning his name, and advice he gives to people wanting to become pro wrestlers was great. This is a one and done.
Just watched WM3 last night. The good ol days when less was more. SNME 4-6 times a year, the big 4 PPVs, Monsoon, Mean Gene, Jesse, Bobby etc. Pre internet days, sorely missed.
Maybe, but it seems like the same old adage of selling out your artistic vision to make money. The goal for wrestling, however, was not being an art form. It was always about money. The modern form succeeds 10 times over.
Hogan selling out Ventura on something that would have made a huge difference for the livelihoods and families of thousands of workers tells you everything you need to know about him
Hogan got paid more than everybody else combined for Wrestlemania III. You can see why he ratted Ventura out to Vince because had a wrestlers union been established there would be no way Hogan would’ve had that big a share of the pie.
@EnbyPhoenixI don’t believe Cena “buried” talent. Super Cena was an executive decision not his. Not to mention all the elevation work he’s done in his later years
@@TheNinthHeart I used to think Hogan was the man, but I’ve heard too many wrestlers say otherwise. It sucks, but I think he indeed was a bad dude to work with
Grateful Dead and Bill Walton being brought up in this interview was really cool. I’m a big hoops fan and even if I’m a Laker fan, Bill Walton was a true basketball legend and OG.
I think showing respect to a recently deceased wrestler on a wrestling channel is both the 'time' & the 'place.' Especially to the ''Master & ruler of the World.'' R.i.p Sid.
WOW...I go back with Jesse to 1979 here in Mpls MN when he worked for AWA and Verne Gagne...not only did I follow his career as a huge fan, I also belonged to his gym in North Mpls...followed Jesse from then until now, I've NEVER seen Jesse be brought to tears before...GREAT interview Chris💯💯💪🏾💪🏾
This is far and away the best interview you ever did, Chris!! I was so enthralled by the whole thing. Great stories, Wrestling, Predator, Running Man. I loved it. What a great dude!
@ChrisVanVliet And I've seen most of your interviews. All WWE, and a couple AEW. I'm not as interested in those, honestly. I'll definitely watch the Kayla Braxton and Damian Priest ones very soon. Then I'll be all caught up! Keep doing great work!
Hi,Governer,remember me from 88-90, it's Damian,I use to drive you for voiceovers at the studio. We always had a smoking ride and great conversations,I learned a lot from you.Much Respecr. Im sorry i could never get to Minnesota to accept your invitation to drive the Porsche you had at the time.
That pitch about Ventura running for president angle though. It would have been crazy had it worked. Imagine winning the elections because of a wrestling storyline. It's so bonkers it could've worked!
Chris you're by far the best interviewer not just in pro wrestling but in general. You let the questions marinate you let the guest talk with no interruptions. I hope you start getting the recognition you deserve. You get recognition but you deserve so much more man
I've always thought that Jesse was the best commentator of all time and now I know why: he never wanted to know the finish, he wanted to react to everything spontaneously. He always sounded so genuine and now I know that it's because he was. I wish he could know how many fans like myself appreciated that. He was a major reason why I took wrestling so seriously as a youth, and look back so fondly on those days now.
Having both Karrion & Will on was awesome - I've loved Will since the MADtv days & Karrion has been pretty solid in WWE. Great seeing the humility & respect they all have for each other.
This was enlightening. I wasn't old enough to have had the privilege of seeing Jesse in his wrestling heyday, but I can tell he was a character and a force of nature because he STILL is. Great interview. 👍🏾

Great interview bro one of your best for sure! keep up the high quality content :)
Let me tell you something about Karrion Kross, he's got somewhere near 60 wild dogs. Don't tell me I was there!
Chris... I don't know man, this is your best interview ever. Congratulation! Very proud of you. You are ambitious and humble.
From Colorado about to be winter again soon.
Jesse Ventura does a great Karrion Kross impression
They both do a great will sasso.
Ha.
This is so dumb😮 that it's hilarious 😂😂😂!!! Way to make me think!!!
Yet another excellent interview Thank you sir
Not even close to sasso
I love how honest Ventura is
“What changed? Is it because Vince is gone?”
“Yes.”
That was great! Only a handful of guys who you'd get that straight up answer out of. I think most guys are still concerned Vince WILL be back & they MIGHT just want a job some day. Honestly, I'm with them. Never count out The Genetic Jackhammer.
KEK. Always a Ventura fan I am.
Exactly.
“I’ve never owned a cellphone”. The timing is perfect. It’s like something Will Sasso would say as Jesse 😂
You don't need cellular signals down in the BAJA
In the BAJA we use messenger pigeons something I learnt in the navy seals
When I left the governors office I took the phone with me that requires the other phone have a matching encrypted key, i.havent had a phone call with a non diplomat in 20 years, The American diplomat to Bulgaria has been making my dental appointments cause I can't reach Dr Greene on my phone
“We don’t have cell phones down in the Baja”
“We communicate via PRESA CANARIOOOO”
This is the most relaxed interview I’ve ever seen with Jesse. Y’all obviously earned his respect with how you treated him. This was awesome
Chris, you're 'killing it'. But it's when you get Jesse, Will, and Karrion in the same room, then you will become a LEGEND!
Table for 3 CVV style!
Agree to most, but the interviews CVV has done makes him a legend already! With all due respect!
Calm down killer 🤯😂
Nah we need Chris to get the hulkster and the body to have a sit down. Now that would be great content
Dude did u see the meltzer interview Chris is beyond ur comprehension did u catch that trump thing
Need a part 2! Ventura is always full of amazing stories and life lessons. He has lived a hell of a life. This interview really was insightful!
Jesse Ventura is one of few men that Vince McMahon could never screw with.
It's like in the rap game drake and pusha T. as much as drake wanted to screw him over, Push was always one upping Drake😂
Jeese Ventura. The one who not only got away but got OVER at Vinces expense.
Yeah he took Vince to the cleaners.
And he’s respected for doing so.
Well, he couldn't screw with anyone at all unless they were willing to let him. Anyone not putting his paycheque above their principles, is immune to him, and just gets fired. That's why Hogan got on so well with him - 'Cus Hogan was bought and paid for. It's also why any big star coming in from another promotion was basically made into a jobber. At least at first. If they wanted to get back to the top of the card, they had to do it by proving their loyalty to Vince. The only exception being if they brought in a metric fuckton of money. But vince still had ways of making sure they didn't undermine him in any way.
Kross being humble and respectful to Ventura was very wholesome.
Kross seems like genuinely a great guy...too bad they can't sell him better in WWE. Maybe there's still hope!

I always remember seeing Jesse rocking back and forth during his WCW stint as announcer.
Not true. He rocks from nearly the very start of the interview.
Jesse's voice is iconic, I could listen to him all day, Love his work
He was a brilliant commentator
Right 😂.. Best voice in old school wrestling

Kross with the shot at WWE when Ventura said, "They take your idea and give it to someone else." Kross says, "Tell me about it."
The Rock and Jesse Ventura are the top two wrestlers that have been successful and have done more with their lives OUTSIDE OF WRESTLING.
🏆However, Jesse Ventura takes the #1 spot:
• Governor of Minnesota
• Hollywood Actor
• Navy SEALS & Vietnam Veteran
• Taught at Harvard
• TV Program Host
• Legitimate Conspiracy Theorist
• Book Author
• Mongols Motorcycle Club (before he was a wrestler)
• Body Guard for Rock bands
• Important Lawsuits (Suing Vince McMahon for royalties, Chris Kyle to clear his name and TSA.)
....and more!

What a time to be alive ❤
I’ve been waiting for this interview since I saw the tweet. This is going to be legendary as hell.

By far the best interview CVV has had
When Hogan debut REAL AMERICAN BEER in MN at Chicago Lake Liquors; RUclips summoned an AWA commercial for Chicago Lake Liquors featuring THE BODY
“The body” was irony/sarcasm. His body looked horrible

This was enlightening. I wasn't old enough to have had the privilege of seeing Jesse in his wrestling heyday, but I can tell he was a character and a force of nature because he STILL is. Great interview. 👍🏾
#CVV is legitimately the best podcast out there right now chris I just want to thank you cause I can watch these interviews all day
What a great interview. Jesse doesn’t do interviews very often, but when he does, they’re always very enjoyable and insightful.
