Wrong. His father started the company and did all the work. Vince was spoon fed...
I think to a point.
There are rumors that Jr. bought the WWWF from his dad for $1.00.
But, I’ve also heard that, supposedly, Jr. & Linda ran around to every bank in town taking out loans to convince Vince Sr. that they had all these financial backers so that he would hand over the reigns.
Regardless, Jr. inherited a territory.
The business he acquired from his dad was not the same business he would have a short time later.
He made some extremely shrewd and unethical moves that eventually made him a billionaire as well as come back to bite him.
I almost agree with the claim that VKM is the best AND worst thing to happen to wrestling…almost.
Benoit was THE WORST thing ever to happen to the industry.
I don’t know if it will ever be the same again.
Bruno thought he had the best of it.
Hogan thought he had the best.
A lot of people think the “attitude era” will never be topped.
It’s always proven to be cyclical, but this is one hell of a slump they’re in.
