As much heat as Vince gets for some of the things he's done, considering how he started it all, and where it came from and what it has become, I would imagine it would be EXTREMELY difficult to just up & walk away. HHH said in Jericho's podcast that H thinks he's only gonna take over once Vince dies. I dread the day that news comes, but it's going to happen eventually. And that's the day that the pro wrestling world could, and most likely should, stop and collectively thank Vince McMahon.

The real answer is that Vince is one of those guys that wakes up at 6 AM and goes to bed at 2 AM, and spends almost all of that time working. He probably doesn't have too many days off, and probably wouldn't know what to do with such a thing. Bingo. It's not really full-time job. What I mean is that other than twice a week (3 days on PPVs) he isn't obligated to do anything or to be anywhere. He regularly held production/TV meetings at home for example. So he might have theoretically a lot to do but he can do it whenever he wants and spend as much time on it as he wants and can be as hands on or hands-off as he wants. For things like NXT, Total Divas etc I'd be surprised if he was involved in any major way beyond giving final approval/kept up to date with what's going on. For TV tapings his involvement can be as intense as he wants. He can either insist on writing the whole show or he can just ask for a final review of the script. Either way I can't imagine he doesn't have a hell of a lot of free time. It's why I don't think he'll retire until health reasons force him to - because it's not a job it's more a hobby. He still probably gets all day Wednesday through Sunday(non PPV weeks) to do what he likes and maybe dip into production meetings as and when he wants to. Not really. From pretty much every source that's ever commented on it, Vince is in office work mode 24/7, even at home. It's one of the reasons he is so out of touch with current or even recent entertainment, he doesn't have time for it. Can it be a whenever he wants, hands-off thing? Yes. Is it? No. Vince doesn't trust others to run things and he has to be in the middle of it all from start to finish. |

I like to think he watches all the hot new TV shows like Mr Ed, Petticoat Junction & The Lone Ranger

I'd like to think he has reduced his schedule slightly with being a grandad, sitting through Frozen like some I know (only film of the 2000s Vince has probably seen!) Based on what Triple H said, now that Vince has gotten older he is actually working more. |

To say he is less involved might be costly to their fluctuating share price. |

Vince McMahon does not sleep. He recharges in a little power chair, like RoboCop. He just needs 10 minutes in the sleep machine like Judge Dredd, and he's good to go! |
