What's Your Story? with Steph McMahon · Michael Cole · 24 Jul 2026 podcast

And now I end up like this.

Kevin Dunn, our executive producer who actually hired me, I was Kevin's first hire as an employee announcer.

Really?

He had a lot that were freelancers, but I was the first employee that came in to work under him.

I didn't know that.

So Kevin wanted to make sure that I was always protected and that I learned the business the right way and that I wasn't just thrown out there having no idea what was going on.

So he put me on the road my first year in the company to go to most of the live events.

And I ended up traveling with Ron Simmons and JBL.

That shaped my life in WWE.

And I grew up quick.

Come on.

I can't give everything away, but I can tell you this.

You can tell some.

My job was to drive the car.

Yes, and I had to make sure that after every live event that there was a case of beer and that there was a bottle of whiskey and maybe some other substances that were in this vehicle as you were driving from town to town.

And we would get to the town.

I'd make sure everybody got checked in.

It was a learning experience.

But all kidding aside, what it did to me is it immediately...

helped me become accepted by the boys and the girls in the locker room.
