WWE Writer Tommy Blacha Helps Y2J Avoid Career Catastrophe

Former WWE writer turned host of the From The Attitude Era podcast, Tommy Blacha, left the world of Conan O’Brien to work for Vince McMahon & WWE for 2 unforgettable years during the Attitude Era. Tommy explains where he first met Vince, and how an invitation to Stamford, Connecticut led to a fulltime creative job at WWE. Tommy pulls back the curtain on some of his most memorable creative storylines including Mae Young giving birth to a hand, Big Bossman interrupting Big Show’s dad’s funeral and how the Blues Brothers’ car ended up in that scene, and Stone Cold Steve Austin being run over by a car. He talks about Vince Russo’s abrupt departure to WCW, Chris Jericho’s incredible WWE debut as Y2J, and how a fateful, chance meeting in the hallway before a show probably saved Chris Jericho’s wrestling career. Plus, Tommy reveals the one big idea he could never get Vince McMahon to greenlight!
