Ken was Gene\u2019s understudy in the AWA who eventually would replace him as the main interviewer when Gene left for the WWF. Resnick would later follow Okerlund to the WWF. Resnick talks about learning from Gene by observing him and receiving advice. He also talks about what it was like in the AWA when Okerlund left, and how Okerlund received Ken when he arrived in the WWF a few years later. Ken also tells what is known as The Vince McMahon Mustache Story.<\/p>\n<p>KEY LINKS&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>PWTorch VIP membership&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/govip\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/govip&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1704339261377000&amp;usg=AOvVaw346q_FAN-z3epBQPbDkcVi\">https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/govip<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Or support us on Patreon&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/pwtorchvip\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/pwtorchvip&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1704339261377000&amp;usg=AOvVaw3xpp5HcdKSJiuACQm6siW7\">https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/<wbr \/>pwtorchvip<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Subscribe to our YouTube Channel with new daily content&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/pwtorch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/pwtorch&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1704339261377000&amp;usg=AOvVaw2FdpCiLvMmxzZ-LiMDHfd-\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/<wbr \/>pwtorch<\/a><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-3861719810\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><strong>FREE VERSION: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/user\/pwtorch\/20240103wkpwp-intclassic\">AUDIO LINK<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>AD-FREE VIP VERSION:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/android\/legacyuploads\/wp-media\/2024\/01\/20240103WKPWP-IntClassic-VIP.mp3\">VIP AUDIO LINK<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>NOT VIP?
