Speaking on Huge Pop!, MVP revealed that during Vince McMahon’s regime, commentary was subject to constant changes. He shared that he wore a headset through which McMahon would frequently tweak nearly every line he was about to say. To stay ahead of these adjustments, MVP made it a habit to finish his lines before McMahon could suggest any changes.

That would happen all the time. I just knew he was going to say something and I would say something quick and witty and I would hear the mic key out. I guess he would go, ‘Okay, that was good.’
