You might remember Mr. Kennedy On WWE TV from 2005 until about 2009. You also might remember him from his TNA days as Mr. Anderson. He participated in a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything), with the R/ SquaredCircle community. He answered a wide variety of questions from his WWE and TNA days.
One of the highlights was the story he told about Vince McMahon on a flight to Iraq:
“We were on our way over to Iraq, which is a really, really long flight. And we were actually flying from New Finland to Rammstein airforce base in Germany. This is like twelve hours into the flight, people passed out and lots of alcohol consumed. It was a C17 transport plane, a big, wide open plane. People are scattered all over the place. 90% of the people were sleeping. Vince, a sixty-five year old billionaire, was low-crawling around being super stealthy with a bag of hard candies tucked under his arm. He’d hide behind something, pop his head up, throw a candy at their face, then pop down again. They’d wake up, look around and see nothing then go back to sleep. Then he’d pop up and do it again. Just kept doing it” (Source: Reddit).

He also shared the best advice Vince ever gave him:
“I remember he harped on me for months and months to tone down my comedy cause I was a really over the top character. And he sort of reeled me in and made a little more realistic” (Source: Reddit).
