Pete Gas recently spoke to CBS Local Sports and was asked on if Shane McMahon ‘s in-ring style is being affected by age. Gas replied:
No, I think that’s exactly why you saw what you saw out of him. Not to mention, he had an infection as well, which added to the fact of why he was in the hospital. He also has a hernia. Anyone who has ever had a hernia can understand what kind of pain the man was going through.
But for the people who knocked the guy, I don’t know how you can. He puts it all on the line for the company and really gives an effort like no other. He does some crazy stuff for a guy who’s not a full-time wrestler. The guy’s in a lot of pain, but he’s not gonna allow that to stand in the way of performing at WrestleMania .
