Eric Young on Vince McMahon Failing as a Leader
Eric Young was interviewed by Chis Van Vliet following his release from WWE and had some harsh words for the former CEO. Young stated Vince failed as a leader because he had nothing for him.
If you have a 3-hour television show, pro-wrestling television show, and you can’t find something for me to do then you are failing as a leader.
Plain and simple. You failed your company. You failed the shareholders, you failed the fans and you failed yourself.
