Lawler talks about a cool moment during the Kickoff Show. He was working on the Kickoff show panel and they’d just gone live on air. After the first couple segments they went to break and Lawler noticed his phone was ringing and when he looked at it it said, “Vince McMahon”. He was shocked and answered it and it was indeed McMahon, who told him to move his crown from one side of the table to the other.
Lawler thought it was very cool that McMahon was even watching the show given how busy he was, and that he cares enough about the small details to call someone on the spot to change something.
Lawler admits that given the length of the show it seemed like some fans tired out at some points. However, he thought it was a good show and notes that fans got their money’s worth for sure.
Lawler admits that he was a bit concerned about working in a 4-man booth for the Men’s Royal Rumble match, but he thought it worked out great. He thought everyone did a good job of getting their thoughts in without stepping over each other.
