    Laurinaitis always struck me as someone with a substantial inferiority complex; he could never escape Animal's shadow, so when he was finally able to skeeze his way into a position of power he did everything he could to consolidate his position, exploit it, and secure a legacy for himself that would stand independently of his brother's.
    He really is the human equivalent of a remora clinging to a bigger fish.

    • @brickcitybikeman3108
      @brickcitybikeman3108 2 года назад +8

      I don't think he was in Animal's Shadow as much as he just wasn't really all that talented in the ring, before 2005, did anybody really know that he was animals brother? But in any event, Shane Douglas was the breakout star of the dynamic dudes, after that tag team ended, John laurinaitis' in ring career was pretty much over

    What’s genuinely amazing about Johnny Ace is how you hear so much about how great at the corporate game he always was. Which he clearly was good at for the most part. But for a corporate mover it’s fascinating to consider that he loses his job in 2012 for dipping his pen in the company ink, keeps a lesser role for years, and then when he finally gets the position back again he basically immediately does the same thing again with this paralegal to lose his job again. For a guy who did all he could to jockey for power it’s amazing he lost it twice because of something really dumb.

    Another note unrelated to the video: it’s fun listening to Paul talk. I first started watching WWE in early 2003 when I was 9 years old and since we didn’t have cable I watched smackdown because it was on in some form of syndication at the time. London and Kidman during their tag team run was one of the first storylines I was really invested in as a fan. I loved them as a tag team and then when Kidman turned on Paul I was pissed. I also became a big fan of London and Kendrick as a team and especially hated MNM. So listening to him speak at length almost 20 years later is fun and kinda brings me back to my childhood in a way remembering a time when I really loved watching pro wrestling. Kinda stinks that I haven’t enjoyed the product anywhere near that level for a lot of years since.

    51:00 London's story about being reprimanded after he was falsely accused of leaking out the news of Ashley's Playboy shoot is confusing to me. He says it happened the morning Vince got blown up in the limo, but the limo angle aired on June 12th and Ashley's Playboy was released months earlier (remember, they usually put it out around Wrestlemania). He must have mixed up two different stories, it was 15 years ago after all.

    When you look at the wrestlers that are in WWE and hear about these things. when they see things happen and nobody does anything. guys like Kevin Owens and Seth rollings are in WWE, working for vince and haven't punched him in the face. Roman Reigns is more than happy to be best pals with 'Rapist' VKM. Its mad.
    They all fall in line and just accept that this is something they can live with.
    Everyone going through WWE and knowing this stuff is happening/happened and didn't do everything they can to stop it IS part of why it happens and part of the problem.
    All Talent could walk away but they don't, Reminds me of the Owen Heart stuff and how Bret had to fall in line because he had to think of his families future in WWE.
