A man that became a billionaire by promoting professional wrestling, hates professional wrestling. By all accounts Vince loves old school wrestling, he apparently loves Bryan Danielson matches for example, he just doesn’t believe that will draw with the mainstream public |

Yeah, he seems to view technical wrestling as the Verne Gagne’s and Lou Thesz’s of the world. Loves watching it, doesn’t think it’ll make him money. |

I remember in an interview he mentioned loving Finlay's matches but straight acknowledged he would never be a world champion because he didn't think that style would sell well enough. This was during the my name is Finlay and I love to fight era.

The show is called 'Raw', yet feels incredibly overproduced (& yes, I know all wrestling is, but it shouldn't feel like it).

Most American fans want storylines, characters and promos. Nothing wrong with technical wrestling, but it can be boring if you don't know what to look for. |

Fin Martin once suggested WWE's reluctance to put a rocket on anyone and create new stars was rooted in their bitterness in how Lesnar (and Lashley, to a lesser extent) ended up moving on despite having the keys to the kingdom. How ironic is it then that very same reluctance to stick a rocket to anyone has led to them relying on Lashley and Lesnar as bankable headliners long after anyone would have thought possible.

Old man, turned 76
Bought WCW, then completely lost it
It’s the Spanish fly in your charity
Book a woman’s Revolution, then fly to Saudi
And isn’t it ironic, don’t you think?
It’s like Sami Zayn becoming generic
It’s like a plane ride, that wasn’t Perfect
It’s the good advice that you just didn’t take
Pay off the panda eight figures

A man that became a billionaire by promoting professional wrestling, hates professional wrestling. It always surprised me he wasn't able to pronounce "wrestling" correctly, calling it "russling". I would have thought he would get a voice coach to correct it or maybe he was doing it purposely. I know Jesse would always say "enjured" instead of injured. |

A man that became a billionaire by promoting professional wrestling, hates professional wrestling. In a similar vein the guy who aspired to have a cultural influence far greater than wrestling saw his most culturally influential period when he was running a good wrestling show. When he tried and failed to do the other stuff is when people would see him as just a backward wrestling promoter. |

Triple H, whose most popular persona was acting as a juvenile rebel against the system, ended up becoming son-in-law to the boss. Additionally, being hired by the son-in-law to the boss and being someone who has his support can very well get you shitcanned. |

I think Vince actually enjoys professional wrestling quite a bit judging by how many people said Daniel Bryan was his favorite person to watch, he just hates the low class association that comes from being associated with pro wrestling |

Not saying you're wrong BTW. |

Not saying you're wrong BTW. That was exactly my thought. He hates being seen as low brow...proceeds to run things with the lowest of brows. |
