During the June 16th edition of the Countdown To Raw show on The Score in Canada, host Glenn Schiiler interviewed Vince McMahon. Below are some of the comments.GS: Canadian fans aren’t eligible to win your millions, but I think people in this country still want to know. How did this idea come about? Did you just wake up one morning and say “You know what? I feel like giving away some money!”?
VM: Quite frankly, that’s about it. I mean the things that come out of my head sometimes…sometimes even I can’t believe them and this is not necessarily one of my better ideas, giving away my personal money, and it’s a total of a million dollars every Monday night. Last week, we had one lady from Texas win $2 and we had another gentleman from Wisconsin win $250,000 and I must admit it gave me more pleasure to give away the $2 than it did the $250,000.
