Keith Michell Recalls Fritz Von Erich Chewed Him Out For Not Accepting Job Working For Vince McMahon

Former producer for AEW, TNA and WCW Keith Mitchell was recently a guest on Talk is Jericho, where he spoke about having meetings with Vince McMahon.

"Oh Yeah, multiple times. Yeah. When I was at WCCW. Fritz [Von Erich] bitched at me, because I didn't take the job because he said that, you know, Vince — several things, you know, the perceived attitude of the territory, whether or not that's true, I hear different stories from different people. Moving to Connecticut from Texas. My wife and I went up in February, which, you know, is not a good time to bring somebody and if you're trying to get them to move gently, you know, bring them in. In February, maybe, March or April or something."

He also spoke about meeting Linda McMahon.

"It was cold and to get the house that I had in Texas, an acre of land in a nice house, it was like, you know, five times what — I couldn't have afforded the house that I was living in, why would I move all the way across the country to live a miserable climate right next to New York City, and live in a house a third of the size of the one I'm living in now?! But I met with Linda, and she was sweet as she could be. She was like, just a very, very nice person."
