Pat Patterson Talks About Being Vince McMahon’s Right Hand Man

WWE Hall of Famer Pat Patterson spoke with Slam Wrestling about his career and the “Pat Patterson Appreciation Night” taking place at tonight’s RAW from Montreal. Here are some highlights of what Patterson said about:

Becoming Vince McMahon’s Ring Hand Man In The 1980′s: “He made me quit wrestling and work in an office, something I had never liked. I didn’t like working in an office, I mean, I quit school so I wouldn’t have to work in an office. I became Senior Vice-president and I had no idea what that meant. The only thing I knew was pro wrestling.”

“I was just a kid who left Montreal with nothing and I went as far as working several main-events at the MSG in New York. You know what they say, if you make it to New York, you can make it anywhere and I’m very proud of that.”
