Former WWE Head Writer Vince Russo recently spoke about a major backstage figure and how Vince McMahon would listen to him the most.
Kevin Dunn is a member of the WWE Board of Directors, a position he has held since 2008. He is often the subject of ridicule among fans online for the frequent camera cuts we see on RAW and SmackDown. Having been with the company for over 20 years, he is a significant figure backstage.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Vince Russo detailed the relationship between Kevin Dunn and Vince McMahon. Russo also disclosed that Dunn was not afraid to tell the former WWE Chairman about the problems with the company's product.

"I gotta tell you something about Kevin Dunn. People, a lot of people don't like Kevin Dunn. A lot of people don't like me, you know. But one thing I gotta say about Kevin Dunn, if Kevin Dunn saw what you saw, he would not be afraid to tell Vince that. He would basically say to Vince, 'Vince, the crowd is dead. We're going to, dim the lights,' he would not be afraid to point that out to Vince. That's why I always liked Kevin. Kevin was not afraid to tell Vince what he didn't want to hear." Vince Russo said.
