9. Freddie Prinze Jr. Hated Working For WWE

Story: Freddie Prinze Jr. is an actor that had some mild success working in some teenage movies and some other roles. In 2008, he worked for WWE as part of their creative team. It led to a lot of people wondering why he was even there. It was probably because his acting career wasn't going well, so he needed a job. This past July he was doing promotion for a Disney XD series called Star Wars Rebels (what?) and brought up how much he hated working with Keifer Sutherland on 24. He also mentioned WWE in a comment: "I went and worked for Vince McMahon at the WWE for Christ's sake and it was a crazier job than working with Kiefer. But, at least he was cool and tall. I didn't have to take my shoes off to do scenes with him, which they made me do. Just put the guy on an apple box or don't hire me next time. You know I'm 6 feet and he's 5'4." He's not ripping on WWE in the comment, but saying it was a crazy job and the "Christ's sake" expression makes us think he didn't really like it. Why People Believe It: They think he hated it because he was a film and TV actor that was reduced to working on WWE's creative team. It seems like a step down. Should We Believe It: He likely enjoyed some parts of the job because he is a wrestling fan, but it must have been rough for him having to take that kind of job when you're used to starring in major motion pictures.
