Former WWE producer likens role to daily dentist visits

Steve Keirn, a longtime WWE producer and wrestler, described his time behind the scenes at the company as unpleasant and isolating during a Monday appearance on Busted Open Radio.

Keirn, who wrestled as part of the Fabulous Ones and portrayed the Skinner character, said the producing job felt like "having to go to the dentist every day" and called it "a nightmare."

He noted that fellow agents offered no guidance during production meetings and that his duties expanded beyond match production to include road management of talent.

Keirn also referred to former WWE chairman Vince McMahon as "Hitler" and recounted a clash over a match he produced.

The veteran added that the expanded responsibilities made him feel like "a babysitter" tasked with overseeing the entire show, filing live reports, and ensuring performers stayed out of trouble.
