One thing that also needs to be said, is that Vince is a hardcore gym guy. He had a full gym installed in WWE Headquarters just so he can get some lifts in at various points in the day.
Not only was he taking bumps into his 70's, he likely was lifting as well. That likely did his back no favors.
If this surgery is so life-alering, it could mean the end of his gym days. What does a gym guy do when he physically can't work out at the gym anymore?

Why spend more time thinking of ideas to "improve" the product of course. Plus he'll be on some pretty strong painkillers so we may get some really GOOD S#!T!!!

Back surgery at 77 the recovery time may as well be forever for him. this. my grandmother is only a couple years older than Vince. she had her hip replaced 3 years ago and she's still in rough shape from it.

I had the exact opposite thought of “He’s trying to get back in the ring” when I read “life-altering”. Given his age and what he’s put his body through, I’m wondering if he’s going to be wheelchair-bound. Dude's going to life his life in absolute fear of the human instinct to eat people in wheelchairs that he believes everyone possesses.

That didn't help, but it was probably more him keeping on taking bumps well into his seventies, the f***er took part in a Hell in a Cell match the following year, and he took an F5 from Beastie Boy 10 years ago. The surprise isn't that Vince has had back surgery, the surprise is that his spine didn't need repairing sooner. Yeah, the St. Valentine's Day 1999 bump probably ranks as his worst bump he took in his career. I think it’s one of the nastiest bumps in WWE history.

While he was under, did they "surgically remove" the mustache?

In my wrestling mind, Vince had to have surgery because of all the stunners he took.
And then I'm like, damn I'm surprised Linda can even walk after the stunner she took. Her spine crumbled from the impact.

While he was under, did they "surgically remove" the mustache? doctor: "There is good news and bad news, the good news is the surgery seems to have been a success, the bad news is your mustache didn't make it through, we tried everything we could sir." vince: "I'm free, that thing took over my body... it made me do things, weird evil things... I paid for someone else's food shopping, went to sleep by 10pm most nights, I gave my limo driver a pay rise... a pay rise, I didn't want to humiliate any wrestlers who were in their home town.. I didn't humiliate anyone in any way, I was nice to Jim Ross on the phone, I nearly closed down my cloning facility though I managed to regain control long enough to keep it op... forget I said anything about that, I... I donated to a charity... A CHARITY for giraffes me, VINCENT KENNEDY MCMAHON donating to a useless animal that size that doesn't even eat meat." doctor: "..... this is the weirdest post anaesthetic reaction I've ever witnessed, anyway.. once you're able to we'll have you in a wheelchair for a short while before we can star"
vince: "WHEELCHAIR....? WHY DONT YOU JUST PUT AN ALL YOU CAN EAT BUFFETT SIGN ON ME DAMN IT? hell forget the sign, tattoo it everywhere on me
Doctor: I'm done here, I have other people to treat.
Vince: TREAT? where? give me the treat!
vince's upper lip: "I'll be back you miserable old scrote."

Was the operation performed by Doctor Heiney in a local medical facility?
