Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted October 13, 2002 "This week’s edition of “Entertainment Weekly” they feature their annual “101 Most Powerful People In Entertainment”. Vince McMahon, who has been featured on the list before was dropped off this year. They claimed that he was dropped off the list due to WWE losing the case to the World Wildlife Fund, in which forced the big name change, due to the fact that The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin bailed on him, because he was sued by Nicole Bass, and due to the fact that he lost his bonus due to the company’s finances. It was announced that Entertainment Weekly did not even mention the company’s low ratings or lackluster fiscal period." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2002 Hopefully that will be a message to Vince McMahon: Retirement is now for you. Think about it...at least Vince McMahon Sr. knew when to call it quits. He gave the company to Vince Jr. after 20 years of WWWF/WWF. Now...it's time for Vince Jr. to pass it on to Shane. (NOT Stephanie...no way in hell). Hell, it's been over 20 years since Vince Jr. took over... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted October 13, 2002 Your "reasons" are Test. And Stephanie has HHH. Why can't any McMahon be a fan of Angle, Eddy, Benoit, RVD or someone people want to see? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2002 Guys, think about it this way: You know it's either gonna be Shane or Stephanie that takes over the business when Vince either retires or kicks the bucket. Which one would you rather have: Stephanie, who makes terrible storylines and bores the hell out of people...or Shane, who is off WWE TV right now because he realizes how bad the company is doing?

I actually heard that Vince really likes Kurt. ::Looks at Kurt Angle.:: Yeah, Vince runs that company. /sarcasm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted October 13, 2002 I'd prefer the company be buried with Vince. Of course at the rate business is going...Vince had better die soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted October 13, 2002 Go back and read it again. I didn't wish death on anything but the company after Vince goes. The analogy was that the business was dying faster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You mean it really wasn't D-X that saved the company and made people not watch Nitro anymore? Of COURSE it was! And you know who was the leader of D-X after WM 14, don't you? Remember, even though he was nothing but a midcarder for most of the Ratingzzzz Warzzzz, the WWF would have DIED, DIED I say, if WCW had THE GAME-AHHH!!!

Guest Brian Report post Posted October 13, 2002 Shane's supposedly a big fan of the in-ring work and cruiserweights. Shane trusts other's opinions far ,ore than Steph does. I'm stillwaiting for Heyman to go ttoally wild with the book. Forty minute sit-down interview with Douglas was one of my favorite things he did in ECW. I thought Shane, Angle, and Test drove together. I saw them at a SmackDown taping come in together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Zero_Cool Report post Posted October 13, 2002 It kinda makes sense that Shane's a big fan of in-ring work...since he's always busted his ass in the ring, falling off tall things too. Shane should pull a powerplay and push for Angle to carry the company. Maybe it would work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
