“I made it a point to talk to him as often as I could. You don’t want to overuse that privilege [but] I would talk to him pretty regularly. He was very easy to talk to. He’s very down to earth. He’s very quiet. I watched that doc recently [Netflix’s “Mr. McMahon”] and a lot of the way that he speaks there is very similar to real life. … He’s just, like, kind of a quiet older guy.”
