The 9 most damaging rips from Jon Moxley and Chris Jericho on WWE

#8 "He has to justify it to himself in his mind." (58:05)

So we sit down in his [Vince's] office and he starts babyfacing me, he's like 'I understand you gave your notice...you know...thank you so much for everything.' So we have our talk, and by this point, he's trying to justify it in his mind. Because I told [one of the writers] 'yeah, I think the day I knew I was gone was that day I got the shot.' So I think he told Vince that, because Vince goes 'I mean I heard you were unhappy about something about the shot thing we did...I wish you'd have told me. I didn't know you had all these...' And I'm like thinking in my head I'm like 'why the f--- was I in your office then?! I went storming in there and said what the hell is this?! Like I do all the time! How could you not know?! Of course you know!' But he's gotta make everything OK in his mind!

This was another damning indictment not only of Vince's legendary stubbornness, but of his being out of touch with his own "independent contractors." This kind of cognitive dissonance is natural, but it shows Vince as being unwilling to listen as well as his weird priorities that no one else seems to agree with.

It perhaps shouldn't be surprising that we often get the adage about WWE being made for an audience of one.
