10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Dec 5)

5. Brad Maddox Practiced Promos In Vince McMahon's Bathroom

Brad Maddox has become the latest WWE performer to be released by the company. During a house show appearance recently, the man used the word 'prick', which didn't sit well with management behind the curtain. That's being touted as the reason for his release, but Maddox told F4WOnline this week that he had felt out of the loop for a long time. Previously, Maddox had been the General Manager of Monday Night Raw. Once that role ended in May, 2014, he was seldom seen on the main roster again. A recent team with Adam Rose was his next hope at getting back to Raw and Smackdown, but he was released before it could really gain momentum. Promos were Brad's bread and butter whilst GM, and he revealed one incident which will live on his memory. Backstage at a Raw event, Brad Maddox was rehearsing his lines in Vince McMahon's office. Stephanie McMahon was there too, and the trio ended up - somehow - in Vince's bathroom. It's likely they were looking for privacy so they could concentrate, but Maddox maintains it was one of the strangest moments of his life. Standing next to the toilet practicing his promo for that evening, flanked by Vince and Stephanie, must have been strange.
