Ross asks McIntyre how the male locker room feels about the push that the women are currently receiving. He notes that all the guys are very supportive. The women work just as hard, if not harder than the men and they deserve everything that they’re currently getting, and he’s so happy for them.
Ross asks McIntyre how the roster reacted to the news that WWE signed a $1 Billion television deal with FOX. McIntyre informs that there was a lot of excitement backstage and rightfully so, because the business continues to grow. McIntyre could hardly believe the numbers when he saw them first, but they were indeed accurate and he’s very excited.
McIntyre credits his wife for keeping him grounded and focused, and Ross notes that finding the right partner is critical for wrestlers. Ross takes the blame for his two failed marriages, noting that he was a workaholic and didn’t pay attention to his personal life. His late wife, Jan was a very important part of his life and put up with a lot of the negative things that accompanies life in the wrestling business.
