“There’s not a day went by that I didn’t talk to Vince, [by] phone, texts, or meetings. But I never went out of my way to [say], ‘Hey Vince, guess what I did today? You’d be so proud of me.’ Well, first of all, Vince ain’t proud of sh*t. He’s just not. It’s not a big knock. It’s just the way that he is, and Laurinaitis played that up.”
In addition, Ross said that while Vince trusted him during his run with the company, he doesn’t believe Laurinaitis developed that same trust.
“I made decisions without Vince’s [formal approval]. I didn’t have to get in a situation where I’m going to have to get everything okayed through the old man. He trusted me. I don’t know that Vince ever really, truly trusted Laurinaitis,” Ross revealed. “We’ve kind of seen how that relationship worked out and evolved.”
