I don't know why but almost every time I see an interview with Vince, whether I agree with what he's saying or not I can't help but like the guy. I can actually believe him when he says that it's about working with him, and I wonder if Vince wants wrestlers to come up to him and suggest ideas/challenge him on stuff. Austin did it and it worked for him. Maybe that's where some guys go wrong, because even if their idea's shot down at least it shows they're interested.

I'll have to watch the Vince part, but from reading what people are saying I would really like to see a very shrewd ballsy interviewer one day try to get Vince to admit that WWE is still a wrestling company. Just grill him til there are no euphemisms for wrestling left. Wouldn't work at all. Triple H already had an interview where he explained the name change, said that its because they do more now than just wrestle as a company (even though its the bread and butter of the company), and even compared it to other companies.

what match was it they keep showing, where miz has john morrison in the inverse DDT position, goes to a backbreaker type thing, and then does a neckbreaker off the rebound? That has to be one of the coolest sequences of moves I've ever seen the Miz do (made possible by JoMo's amazing abs, no doubt). Miz has used it quite a few times actually. It's like a modified Reality Check.

Triple H comes off as a pretty cool guy here. I always thought he comes off that way in 90% of the interviews Ive seen/read

I get the impression Hunter is still very much a 'wrestling' guy. It must be pretty hard for him adapting to the business side of things.

Hearing Vince say they arent wrestling was kind of grating. I have no qualms with their plans for the company, but just show some honesty. We all know its wrestling.

"We don't consider ourselves wrestling uh....but these characters we create resolve their differences uh....in a physical uh type way";D If I was an investor, I'd be seriously concerned if the business that wants me to invest in them seems to have a pathological obsession with denying what their core product is. It would be like Pizza Hut telling investors "we don't sell pizzas, we sell a global product consisting of an oven-baked, flat, disc-shaped bread with various toppings"The investor would think "are these people insane?" due to political correctness, it will no longer be Pizza Day. from now on it'll be Italian-American sauced-bread day.

Of course a little shot of Steph trying out Trips' Wrestlemania mask. But what about his Wrestlemania horse?

It's wrong that I find this adorable isn't it? x Probably because it's so huge on her head. Comes off like a child trying on her dad's mask or something.

Well, Vince confirms what we've suspected all along; he'd rather die than ever give up his position in the company. that was awesome. "hopefully there will be people who tell me, Vince you're slipping a little bit. It's time for you to step down. Then I will of course tell them that they're full of crap" Awesome.

This is just a guess but I'm betting the TV network never gets off the ground or at least won't last.

I still fail to see why it bothers people what Vince calls his company?
