He did it again.
Pat McAfee surprised those within WWE with an unadvertised appearance, this time on "The Grandest Stage of Them All."
The former WWE commentator spoke on his Pat McAfee Show podcast about surprising both Michael Cole on commentary, and his opponent, The Miz, with his unannounced appearance and match on "The Show of Shows" this past Saturday night.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the episode where he touches on this topic.
On surprising Michael Cole and The Miz with his WrestleMania 39 appearance: "Michael Cole had no idea that I was there. He walked by the bus one time. I actually seen him. I haven’t seen him in a long time. I missed that guy. I would have liked to talk to that guy but can’t because we don’t know if the moment’s gonna come or if it’s gonna matter, and I don’t want to distract him. Three people I think knew. Obviously, The Miz did not know until Saturday. For shoot, when my music hit is near when Miz found out. He might have thought, ‘Is there somebody back there that maybe wants to come dance?’ He never expected it to be me. It was awesome. I’m very thankful."
On how he misses being in the WWE environment as everyone always treats him like family: "People at WWE are way too nice to us. They’re so cool. I got to drink with the crew afterwards. I miss the family behind the scenes over there so much. They are so good at everything they do. The people behind the scenes, the camera people, the graphic people, the editing people, the tech people, the every people. They’ve all been there forever. Four people in the whole building knew we were there."
