WWE Hall of Famer JBL recently gave some insight into his relationship with former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon and when they last spoke. On the “Something To Wrestle With” podcast, JBL described their communication as functional and respectful.
“It’s been within the year,” JBL stated about his last contact with McMahon. He explained their dynamic wasn’t one of constant communication:
“We never really were texting guys, or we never were, you know, phone call guys. He called me if he needed something, and I’d call him if I needed something. He would always answer the phone, and, of course, I always answer for him.”
JBL also shared that his view of Vince was common among many who worked for him.
“He’s my boss, but was much more than that to me. I felt like a lot of guys did. So many people talk about Vince as if they felt almost like he is an adopted father or older brother. I was the same, and I’m not special in that regard. A lot of guys felt the same way about him.”
