The one he got from his broker. Think it's going anywhere? It seemed like an odd way to get him out of being involved in the match. And Vince sounded kinda incredulous when he was on the phone, like he just got bad news.
So, here's what I think: they're going to do an angle where Vince loses a ton of money and Bischoff buys a controlling interest in WWE or one of the brands (hopefully Smackdown and not ECW).

Probably just the price of shares in WWE dropping.
I like Bischoff on TV though. Would be a good idea to bring him back in to it.

Not a bad idea at all, honestly, but I can't see creative A)Having the collective brains to think of that storyline, or B) actually seeing it through to the end if they did. Still, it's a pretty cool idea.

It was probably just Linda Macmahon telling Vinny to get some milk on his way home or something like that.

Still, it's a pretty cool idea. If it had happened on Smackdown (with head writer Michael Hayes) I would have believed it possible. |

Well, Vince may consider it, because not only does it get Bisch back in as an uber-heel (and a potential in for a new nWo), it would make Vince look more sympathetic towards the fans, thus marking Vince's Bi-Annual Face Turn.

Off topic, but I'd love to see someone come out, get halfway through a stupid promo and then immediately go physically assault the creative team. If that ever happened however, chances are It wouldn't be a work.

I don't know that Vince could do an angle involving WWE stock prices; in the business (of which I am a part - yes, a financial planner who likes wrestling!) there is such a thing as "talking down" a stock price. If for several weeks (or months) the real-life Chairman of WWEI is on TV talking about how the value of WWE shares is falling, there is the possibility of the angle having a real-world effect on the WWE's stock prices. Not only is this not good for business (shareholders would be pissed if the price did drop), but it may even attract undesired attention from the SEC.
The accusation could be made that Vince is trying to drive the stock price lower so he and the family can do a buy-back of outstanding shares and de-list the WWE and make it a privately-owned company again. I'm not saying he IS doing that, but the SEC would have to investigate the allegation if it were made by shareholders.

I think everyone in the back is knowledgable enough to know that if they go off script, they're probably never working for the E again. And with no WCW to jump to, the chances of us ever seeing that again is luv-all.

Vince: I'm Bi a lot of things but annual isn't one of them! Wait...did I just say that? JR: Yes, and we're live... |

It may be what they're going for, actually. It's creative, sure...but it's also already been done. This was how Batman regained control of his empire, right? So it's not so farfetched to think that one of the writers would steal that idea, thereby making the whole "Vince isn't creative enough" point moot.
