Evil Vince worked so well in the Attitude Era because as a guy in his 50's Vince could work a match and get a true comeuppance. At 70, that simply can't happen anymore, he's not having a match with anyone at his age.

Yay, because he's a villain willing to lose.

At 70, that simply can't happen anymore, he's not having a match with anyone at his age. True, but he's still willing to take a bump if need be, like Reigns' Superman Punch, which he sold like it damn near killed him.

As much as I hated his little snot-nosed ass as a kid....I miss Shane McMahon.
He truly was the Greatest McMahon.

I'm ok with Vince now but it's going to get real old real quick. Hopefully he'll be done by WrestleMania.

I really can't say anything negative about McMahon (Vince) yet - every segment he's been in since he return I've enjoyed and the ratings have been up on shows he is on.
As long as he doesn't overstay his welcome and he's gone soon, it's the perfect run for McMahon: Put Reigns over, provide entertaining segments, leave.

I don't mind a McMahon making an appearance but it's them turning a wrestling show into The McMahon Family Hour that I don't like.

No McMahon at all. Triple H on weekly I'm fine with, let him be the authority figure. But for Godsakes get both Mcmahons off the damn show. Vince is more tolerable than Steph, but not by much.
Stephanie...I just want someone to pull her jaw off so I don't have to hear her screeching every week and destroy her theme song afterwards.

So the emergency button has seemingly been pressed and Vince McMahon is back and as bad as ever. Do we still enjoy seeing him or is the evil boss schtick now with the diminishing returns that is Reigns just something that's all too familiar? No one reacted to his match announcement between Roman/Sheamus, so he decided to keep yelling "Happy New Year" hoping it would draw a reaction. He has literally gone insane.

Get Steph as far as possible from the screen. I'm cool with Vince, though, since he's not only a crazy, entertaining old bastard, but he knows that the cardinal rule of being a heel is that you need to be able to show ass in order to get the babyface over, and he's shown time and time again that he is more than willing to get his comeuppance. Stephanie showing ass would give them the ratings boost they're looking for.

Out of touch aside, I'll always love and respect Vince, the man and the character. Even in the worst and dumbest stuff, he throws himself in 110%, and it's not boring. Like this past Raw. While Steph was doing her thing, I was like Then Reigns came out and I was like Then Vince showed up and I was like
