More details have come to light on the Vince McMahon 80th birthday party as a WWE Hall of Famer has elaborated further on what took place at the event.
McMahon recently celebrated his 80th birthday with a party that was originally set to be kept secret. However, fans became aware of the party as photos from the night made their way online with Drew McIntyre, Sheamus and The Miz among some of the guests in attendance.
On the latest episode of his Poddin’ Ain’t Easy, Hall of Famer Charles Wright [The Godfather], gave his recollection of what happened over the course of the celebrations. Wright noted that the event took place at the five-star Baccarat Hotel in New York City, with McMahon footing the bill for the 2-day celebrations. It was also noted that some of the guests included The Undertaker, Kane, JBL, John Cena, and Teddy Long, and Jelly Roll provided the musical entertainment for the event.
Vince McMahon Wore “Dr. Evil Suit” For His Birthday
Recounting further details of what happened, Wright also spoke about his interaction with McMahon, and that he thought the former WWE Chairman wore a suit that was similar to the iconic Austin Powers villain Dr. Evil:
“I’m like, ‘Vince, thank you for inviting me.’ He goes, ‘Charles, I just want you to know there’s nobody here that’s not my true friend.’ And we talked for a second and then we walked in, but he had on, like, a Dr. Evil suit.”
The Godather also noted that when he was speaking to other guests, they also saw the resemblance when it came to McMahon’s attire:
“I didn’t want to say it to him but, first of all, he looked better than when I’ve seen pictures of him lately, he looks a lot better than that. He’s walking a lot better than that. He introduced me to his girlfriend or whatever she was. But I thought, Dr. Evil, you’re Dr. Evil.”
“I go in, everybody of course is talking to Vince. He gets to me and Taker are talking and Kane and (Vince) walks away and Taker goes, ‘Dude, Vince looking like Dr. Evil. I’m like, ‘Dude, that’s exactly what I was thinking!’”
The Hall of Famer also mentioned that phones and cameras were not allowed at the aforementioned event, meaning that it is unlikely that proof of McMahon’s unique outfit will ever see the light of day.
