This all started in the early 80's when Vince took over for his father Vincent J McMahon./ He started his expansion to a national empire in 1983. Now, they sit here as the biggest promotion in the world. Vince had the fortitued to go out and buy up the smaller promotions and bring in all the big stars in the business and work for him. He took the business of professional wrestling to levels that it had never seen before.
Like any smart buisnessman, he adapted his business and his product with the times. He was putting out content with great, athletic stars, and being able to build new stars as he went along. He made guys that became household names in the mainstream media outlets outside of the wrestling business. He did things for the world of wrestling that sent the business into another stratosphere.
There have been bumps along the way, including that steroid aligations brought on him in 1993. He beat that. Now, which I think was a big reason why Vince retired, was sexual misconduct alligations and hush money paid out. TGhis turned out to be a very bad look for Vince and a very big reason why he retired.
Honestly it about time Vince retired. There's no word yet on how much power as far as creative goes for WWE that Vince has actually given up yet, but it looks like it could be a good thing. As a fan of the product, WWE TV hasn't been as good the last few years and its been harder to watch with Vince at the helm. Now with him finally stepping aside, it could allow the product on TV to return to what it once was. A great wrestling product that put on higher quality matches and better storylines then what have been produced the last few years.
Vince Ias much as it feels weird seeing you finally retire, its about time and I hope for the better of WWE.
