TK showing his real character again...Really can't stand this guy...Also wouldn't this be untrue with Court and Scott D'Amore? Neither man is a CEO. Most wrestling promotions in the world are not large scale and corporatized enough to even really have CEOs. Regardless of anyone's feelings on the tweet, I believe it's correct unless either AAA or CMLL specifically have a CEO, and I don't think either does |

Was gonna post this before the thread was locked  most companies either arent large scale corporations or belong to a bigger company that is not a wrestling company. |

TK can't help being a jackass and I'm here for it. Yeah I don't get the tears... are we supposed to be worshipping Vince for all he's done and not make any jokes? Honestly, it can't be overstated enough, the shit Vince got ousted for is f***ing damning, bring on the jokes about it. The dude deserves zero sympathy, especially given he trotted himself out there MULTIPLE TIMES on live shows, making a mockery of it. Tony has not punched down here with this joke, not at all imo. |

To think all of this could've been avoided if he didn't make the choice to be a piece of shit.

Honestly him retiring is going to both bring the reasons for retiring more to the mainstream forefront, especially if WSJ has more which... given he stepped down, has to be a given right? It's gonna be really interesting to see how this continues to unfurl. |

Well, I shall always enjoy the memories that Vince was a huge part of in the attitude era. Those times, with my friends, watching wrestling was some of the best times of my teenage experience.
I will always thank him for that, and respect what he created and did.
While we all know the stories coming down the track are likely going to be awful and will likely poison those memories, for now at least, I say thank you Vince.
I'm sure many wont, that's ok too.

I'm not understanding the pearl clutching over TK making a joke that's not even insulting to Vince.

Stephanie McMahon and Nick Khan have been officially named co-CEOs of WWE, effective immediately. WOW. LONG LIVE THE ALLIANCE |

No real pearl clutching...Just explaining why i said what i said...Others defended it as hilarious and I said it wasn't...Neither opinions have to change I just get tired of always being told mine is wrong here no matter how outlandish it is because it doesn't fit the status quo |

With McMahon still being majority share owner I’m skeptical we’ll see any drastic changes in on screen programming because you know he’s gonna leverage that . The only thing that would convince me otherwise if they FINALLY get rid of Kevin Dunn.

How does the biggest story about WWE in decades become a "I hate Tony Khan" thread? I just don't get it.

It is classless, but Vince absolutely would have made the same sort of comment live on air if Ted Turner had retired in the Attitude Era. It's just wrestling, no one is above the carny. |

Brock apparently said that if Vince was gone, he was gone.

I'm expecting Smackdown is going to have a "Vince says his goodbyes on Raw" promotion tonight. They won't do it on just one night because they want to make sure it gets more attention, and given it's Friday, unless any bombs are dropping on Monday, they might be able to get a big viewership bump of it before anyone is turned away in further disgust.

Brock is gonna become like the Yeti. There'll be reports of him in the wilderness every now and then, but no conclusive proof.
