If Vince has cancer, the smart money's on it disappearing. I hear he has some kind of money laying around. Remember Magic Johnson? Remember how he had aids and was going to die? Hasn't happened yet. True and i would say pancreatic cancer is pretty deadly but steve jobs doesn't seem to have a problem with it. Steve Jobs had a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that was more treatable than the more common kind. And nobody still knows whats up with that guy, he's always taking leaves due to "health issues" edit - although jobs came back today, did not know that |

I hope the WWE Creative team doesn't read this forum or it might be time for a completely inappropriate storyline. I dont see how Vince having storyline cancer is any worse than any other character on TV having cancer. And that happens all the time. |

Now this a total unfounded theory of mine and the fact he has wrestled not to long ago, and also has alot of other reasons to want to take some well deserved time away from the public eye (he worked almost non-stop in story lines for 12+ years and pretty much non stop as an announcer for 20+ years before that, plus grandkids, wanting shanhe and steph to have more pull in the background etc etc) takes away from it i still have to bring up his high risk of pancreatic cancer it runs in familys on the fathers side (primarily) and his dad died from it at roughly the same age (give 5 years), granted he always seems healthy as a horse he is getting older, and I fear losing one of my favorite wrestling figures of all time...i wish we could just get a hello from him once in awhile.  Did you miss the entire half-an-hour DX/Vince McMahon promo on RAW for his birthday like two weeks ago? It was endless . . . . |

It would kill their stock price (not that their is much to kill) since most investors see "Mr. McMahon" and Vince McMahon are one and the same. When Vince blew up in the limo and when RAW was sold to Trump, they had to put out releases admitting it was a storyline because of the reaction. |

Indeed, but as purely storyline, people would see it as tasteless and be up in arms over it, which I really dont understand. |

For me it would depend on how they go about it but, given how they handled JR's cancer scare I understand why people would go that way right off the bat. |

Did you miss the entire half-an-hour DX/Vince McMahon promo on RAW for his birthday like two weeks ago? It was endless . . . . And yet somhow it ended. Curious, that. It felt as if time had slowed to a halt. Really, just the video they started to play would have been an excellent swerve. Six or so minutes of genuine important Vince bullcrap, then DX exits the ring and does nothing. I would expect some "hilarious" prank to be coming until the end of the show. |

If it was there for no real reason, or was a dig at someone, then Id agree. But if it had a payoff to it (which admittedly, I cant think of one right now), then Id be fine with it. |

Dr. Heiney didn't have one. JR just showed back up after Joey Styles "quit" RAW. |
