Behind The Scenes Look At Working For WWE, Vince McMahon

By Spike Eskin

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Here's what we know about the WWE: the results of matches are predetermined, it is wildly successful and makes a ton of money, and it's run by a seemingly brilliant maniac in Vince McMahon.

Here's what we don't know about the WWE: just about everything else.

How do they write the stories, and scrip the matches? Do the wrestlers really care if they win or lose? What's it like to get screamed at by Vince McMahon? What's it like to get yelled at by the Undertaker on a private plane while you have ketchup and mustard all over your suit?

Ange Goldstein is a former WWE Creative Team member, and is a regular on my program to talk about the professional wrestling. Born and bred in Philadelphia, and a graduate of Temple University, Ange made a childhood dream come true by working for the biggest professional wrestling organization in the world.

With Wrestlemania on the horizon, Ange stopped by the studio to talk about his time with the WWE, preview Wrestlemania, and talk about his upcoming roast of The Iron Sheik.
