Ross recalled a funny story regarding Pat and his partner Louie Dondero when he first started with WWE. He also talked about how they taught him valuable lessons about not judging someone based on their sexuality. “Vince hired me and I don’t know if he knew what exactly to do with me at that time, so I hung out at Pat’s house with Louie. We were smoking weed. Louie liked weed, and his 2 other cronies liked it, and I kind of liked it. So I said, ‘man, if only the Cowboy [Bill Watts] could see me now.’
