Update: More Backstage Details on Issues Between Steve Austin & Vince McMahon, How Y2J’s Interview w/Cena is Expected to Be Handled

April 4, 2015

According to The Wrestling Observer, the issues are directly related to the podcast interview Austin did with Triple H a couple months back on the WWE Network.

Vince was said to be unhappy with some of the questions Austin asked Triple H, and while it’s unknown exactly which questions upset Vince, it’s very likely Vince was not happy with Austin asking Triple H about Chyna and the Hall of Fame. The question lead to bad press for WWE, and prompted Chyna to fire back at Stephanie McMahon and Triple H during an interview with Vince Russo, which then forced Triple H to address the issue publicly.

With regards to Chris Jericho interviewing John Cena on Monday night, when WWE officials were looking to have a podcast air monthly on the WWE Network, Vince wanted a new host, and decided to ask Chris Jericho instead of Steve Austin. Speculation is that Jericho’s interview with John Cena will be much more company friendly than Austin’s interviews.

If WWE was so concerned with the line of questioning, why did they promote the Austin interviews with Vince and Triple H as “hard-hitting”, AMA style interviews?
