What Do You Think of Vince McMahon?

[blackmegaman]

No less evil , crazy , heartless , a scam artist , a bully ,and ruthless then the rest of the promoters from his time the only difference is he still is around while the rest just couldn't keep up.....he is in the end of the day a wrestling promoter.

[A Platypus Rave is Correct]

From all accounts I've heard he sounds pretty nice... except when it comes to business. When it comes to business he's a ruthless son of a bitch, and as stated above me that's generally what it takes/took to be a widely successful wrestling promoter.


Also Crazy... he is also rather blatantly crazy...

Paul Heyman?

Absolutely out of his mind but one of the funniest guys ever (intentionally and unintentionally).

[Injustice45]

He looks pretty good at sixty-eight years of age. He did whatever it took to be the biggest promotion around these parts.

He's like that crazy, borderline racist drunk uncle everybody has that's just been with you for so long that you can't get upset at because, end of the day, all you can do no matter how much he drives you insane is shake your head, smile and nod to yourself as you say, "Ah shine on you crazy diamond."

Possibly the last great eccentric.

Also, from what I've heard via Cornette, Vince mocking you is basically his way of saying he likes you.

I understand respecting him for Wrestlemania and helping make the WWE so successful blah blah.

But as a person...I dunno. I'm sure he's purposely placed himself into storylines with Divas just so he could make out with them. I'm sure the Kiss my Ass Club was made to mess with people he had problems with at the time. The on air humiliation of loyal employees who have given everything to his company.

Just seems like Vince gets this weird pass.

"Oh it's just Vince being Vince"

I dunno.

I apologize ahead of the advance for this long message. I'm very sick and typed this on my phone to kill time but....

Yeah but to be fair the man has not taken a day off from work since the early 80's. The only times I heard he ever took a day off was when he blew out both of his quads. He took a successful wrestling promotion and turned into a global empire and a monopoly. He survived many scandals and won a war against a wrestling promotion with a owner with deeper pockets and a bigger network. He might have flown and drove more miles then any other 1%'er. He is one of the few one percenters who wasn't born into wealth, his father abandoned him throughout his entire childhood and adolescence and had no intentions of ever seeing him. If Vince never had a bad complicated relationship with his family or step dads growing up, he would of probably never bothered to seek out his father and got involved in the wrestling buisness. Im not sure if Vince Sr. ever saw his oldest son past infancy. It seems like he is ruthless in his buisness practices because he sees every employee is his family he never had and probably feels hurt when the buisness becomes out of hand, but just almost all families, the door is always opened for anyone who wants to return or needs help.

The long winded point I'm trying to make is Vince McMahon is a freak! A freak that overcomed a lot of barriers that shaped him into a bigger freak and became a success story. A success story that only a giant freak could accomplish. A insane work ethic that only a freak can work through. Lots of sacrifices, scandals, heartbreaks, and devastating deaths that only a freak can survive. Even though he is a giant freak he is still human and still has a heart and have gone out of his way to help his employees and various of charities. (just try to find the thread nice stories of Vince McMahon)

I believe if Vince never had met his father or, he would probably be the billionaire head of a giant non profit charity organization trying to change the world or the f***ing President of the United States. Even if he lost the election, he would still find a way to rule the USA.

Basically a 20th/21st century PT Barnum.

For the record, by most accounts, Barnum never said "there's a sucker born every minute". If that were Vince's credo, this site probably wouldn't exist.

Massive genius/businessman, massive ego, and someone who desperately needs competition to be at his best.
