AEW star and pro wrestling veteran MVP appeared on the F Y’all podcast with CT to discuss various topics, including having to cut a promo on the fly during his early WWE days after he was handed an awful script and WWE Hall of Famer Dusty Rhodes having his back to do what he needed to do.
MVP said, “I remember when I first started. We did a press conference where MVP was signing his contract. They gave me my script, and I read the lines. This was the actual verbiage in the script, ‘Check out these fine threads I be wearing.’ I went to Dusty and showed it to him. ‘What the f**k is this?’ Dusty looked at it and goes, ‘Damn, baby. That’s awful. I don’t know who wrote that s**t, but go do what you do.’ I went and asked, ‘Who wrote this s**t?’ It was somebody in Connecticut; he wasn’t even there. I figured out early on that ‘they’ can’t write for me. You can give me what you want, give me an overview, and let me go out there and do it. Don’t ever again hand me some s**t like that.”
