Vince McMahon wasn’t pleased with his own performance on this week’s edition of RAW during the million dollar giveaway segments and neither was anyone else in the company. “In some ways it highlighted the problems of the company. I felt bad for him. It was depressing,” said one source within the company. “This is getting really scary and it’s getting like WCW.”
The idea of featuring Charlie Haas as a special guest was pitched by the creative staff as a rib, as Vince has stated to the writers in the past that he’d rather watch paint dry than watch Haas. The idea of those two appearing on camera together was meant to be a joke, which Vince apparently got a kick out of and approved of.
