Cornette was really pissed some people were laughing and this was like his big debut basically I have a smirk on my face because I thought The Boogeyman was going to scare my daughter so Cornette thought I was being disrespectful so he called me to the back and slapped me in the face.<\/p>\n<p><b>On his WWE debut:<\/b> I got signed in August in 06. I went home for a few months to get my work visa. I was on my way to Elizabethtown, Kentucky for a live OVW event I get a call from the office they were saying &#8220;You&#8217;re Italian, right?&#8221; I said, yeah, my dad&#8217;s from Italy and they are like &#8220;Can you speak Italian?&#8221; I said yeah, so they bought it flew me down and I made my debut two days later.<\/p>\n<p><b>On how he got his comedy gimmick:<\/b> They lost faith in the gimmick so they turned me heel. When I did the heel voice with the accent I guess so much more personality came out of it and Vince loved it.<\/p>\n<p><b>Working with Vince McMahon:<\/b> I love Vince. Vince is the man, he doesn&#8217;t even know how much of a mentor he is to me. When I watch him work and the hustles he has it&#8217;s unparalleled it&#8217;s amazing. He&#8217;s just the man.<\/p>\n<p><b>On his WWE release:<\/b> I wasn&#8217;t negatively affected at all. It was like thank you very much that&#8217;s the end of one chapter it was awesome, it was amazing. I wasn&#8217;t released the contract just ran out and they just opted not to renew it.<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-1569704585\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\" data-resource=\"show_id=3275525\" data-theme=\"light\" data-playlist=\"show\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"340px\">Listen to \"Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast\" on Spreaker.<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/widgets.js\"><\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jordan Garber Now Podcast Host:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":57,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,4],"tags":[650,56,101],"class_list":["post-11172","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interview_highlights","category-wwe_news","tag-santino-marella","tag-vince-mcmahon","tag-wwe"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
