WrestleMania 38 Highlights: Pat McAfee, on WrestleMania 38: “It was a dream come true”
“It was a dream come true. Last night was the best time of my life.” This is how Pat McAfee defined his participation in WrestleMania 38 in his show.
The former NFL player debuted on the WWE main roster in style facing Vince McMahon’s new protégé, Austin Theory.
McAfee defeated Theory, but then lost to Vince McMahon in what was the WWE owner’s first match in twelve years.
“You should have listened to the stadium every time he was thinking about it.
Every time he had that jacket on and he started to grope at it, man, there was like a buzz going up there.

That’s not how this was supposed to be, and you’re just, like there’s people that are around that they’re like ‘oh yeah this is happening now.

I saw 76-year-old Vince McMahon taking his shirt off, and I was like ‘is this a movie right now? this has to be a simulation.
Then, obviously, Austin Theory attacks me from behind, Vince abuses the power of him, and that referee, what the hell was he doing?
After the fight against Vince Stone Cold appeared, something that Pat himself recognized that he did not know was going to happen.
“I didn’t know that was going on, all of that I had no idea what was going on.
Having a couple of beers together? ‘Hey kid, I’m going to go this way, you go there,’ it was amazing.”
