The second thing was, you [Bully Ray] know Vince and I know Vince, and Vince is going through something that should be personal, shouldn't even be out in the world. Just that people can't keep their mouths shut about business that don't belong to them and then they come out with it. Whether it's right or wrong, it's still personal." He continued: "I thought Vince was basically saying to everybody: 'Listen, I'm not going to go into hiding, I'm not going to regress, I'm going to grow from this I'm a grown man, I'm not afraid of you. You can kiss my a*s.' He had the 'kiss my a*s club', you know what, when you're a billionaire, you got this 'kiss my a*s' mentality - 'I could do whatever I need to do.' I thought there was nothing short of that in that appearance," said Mark Henry. [From 2:45 to 4:30] Mr. McMahon addresses the WWE Universe on .Mr. McMahon addresses the WWE Universe on .
