I remember him doing a couple of those chats back in the day.
One of them, he answered every question with "We'll see what happens" or "You never know".

As a Warrior and Bret mark, and given their history with McMahon - LOL
Question: Vinnie Mac, what are your concens now that the warrior has joined wcw?
WWFLive2: None! Whose left that wcw can take? Bruno Sammartino?
Question: Mr. McMahon, Are you and Bret Hart in Cahoots against WCW?
WWFLive2: Bret is my secret agent, however, not a very good one!

If that was the real Vince, it makes me love him even more.
What a legend he is.

Vince is awesome.
This from one of the Bischoff interviews:
Question:Eric, will we ever see blood in WCW again? Bischoff:No. Unlike our competition, we have a firm policy (that we enforce). We've seen what happens to organizations who allow that kind of graphic violence to exist in their product. I think what happened at In Your House was another example of the hypocracy that runs so rampant in the WWF. Over the past several years Vince McMahon has written letters not only to Ted Turner but to other executives in the Turner organization and to other people in the television industry deploring acts of violence on WCW programming. In an act of desperation he now allows the kind of spectacle we say this past Sunday night. I would be happy to provide copies of Mr. McMahons letters to Prodigy members to demonstrate the debths of that hypocracy. In the most recent instance where a wrestler did split his head open...our policy is to pull back in a wide shot so the blood is not detectable on television.

1, 2, WWFLive2: We're back, finally! WWFLive2: No we're not back. C'mon Ref! Hilarious stuff. Vince can be really funny when he wants to.

Am I the only one who thinks this is an obvious parody piece? I looked it up and it is real. The WWF/AOL chats go back to 1995 and other WWF superstars have done this as well.

Question: Vince, You must realize that many young children idolize the wrestlers of the WWF. I was wondering if you were at all concerned what the kids were picking up from the middle fingers and sex references from the wrestlers??
WWFLive2: It's the 90's! The WWF is only reflecting what is contemporary in today's society I dare say there are a great deal more middle fingers and sexual references in everyone's life then are portrayed in the WWF. Nonetheless, it is every parents discretion as to whether populace watch the WWF or any other TV program on the air.
OK guys I'll be back in a week im building a time machine to bring this Vince back and destroy the current one.

Vince is saying the times totally dicate what type of product is produced. It makes total sense too me. 2010 is a totally different time then the late 90's

This proves it, the Screwjob was a work people!
I remember going on a bunch of these AOL chatrooms back in the day. They had some during PPVs. Fun times at old Keyword: WWF.

Ah, man. Seriously, speaking as an aspiring psychologist, Vince McMahon would be my most prized case study. The guy's so eccentric, quirky, and twisted that figuring him out would just about make my career.
Please, Vince, write a tell-all autobiography. You've got to tell us what goes on in that strange, funny head of yours.

I wish some of those old Prodigy and AOL chats Bischoff did in '97 were available. Those were fun too. Here are a bunch, including a few with Bischoff.... hack-man.com/Wrestling/Interviews/Thank you!
