Occasional Pre-Show
WWE.com are deeply upset to announce the retirement of chairman, Vincent Kennedy McMahon, being a long, loyal chairman, Vince took over the WWE in 1982 and led it to new heights, and legends such as Hulk Hogan, The Undertaker, Stone Cold Steve Austin and HBK's were born. For almost 30 years, Vince McMahon has led the WWE through thick and thin, through good times and bad, but under Vince's ownership the World Wrestling Entertainment stands here today the pinnacle of the industy. Thank you Mr. McMahon!
WrestleZone: According to PWInsider, after Vince's retirement, the new owner actually ISN'T his son-in-law Triple H, or his son Shane or evn his daughter, Stephanie. Vince has handed the WWE over to his god son. With Triple H still wanting to wrestle, he declined the job as it would be 'too much' for him, as Shane McMahon is working outside the WWE and Stephanie wants to stay in the role of booker. A news conference is expected for tomorrow unveiling the new WWE Chairman, Ryan Edwards.
Press Conference
Vince McMahon: Well, after almost 30 years of being the 'god' i'd like to call it, of the wrestling industry, I've decided to step down. I mean, I'm a grandfather now haha, I'm getting older and I just feel I can't handle the stress and pressure anymore, don't get me wrong, I would do absolutely anything for the wrestling business, I love it as much as anything in this world except for of-course, my lovely wife Linda, my daughter Stephanie, son Shane and my son-in-law Paul, and my grandchildren. I grew up in the wrestling business, my father, Vince McMahon Sr. owned a wrestling company before my dad unfortunately passed away, then it was my time, I came and followed in my father's footsteps, then the WWWF became the WWF, we went in all sort's of directions from the Hogan-Era, to the Austin and Rock era, to the Cena era, WWF/WWE has took multiple turns, and after 30 years of owning such a fabolous company with hard working talent and wrestlers, I've decided to step down as the chairman of the World Wrestling Entetainment.
I know it's hard, I actually want to cry for the first time aha, yeah, I know it's hard but it's the right time. I don't exactly have the health and well-being to continue with such a stresful role, I won't be leaving, I'll still be working behind the scenes with other roles, I'll just see what the new chairman has in store for me. But, its the end of an era, and I just need t take time to tell the fans how much I love them and am going to miss them, without you the WWE wouldn't be where it is today, you're the one's who pay to come see our superstars do what they do best and entertain you.I'd also like to thank the WWE superstars for putting their bodies on the line each and every week for the promotion of this industry, it's the end of an era guys and my journey has ended. I love eachover and everyone of you! Thank you all. Also..news concerning the new chairman, the reports are true, the new chairman is my god-son, Ryan Edwards, but unfortunately he wasn't able to make tonight's press conference, instead he'll appear on tomorrow night's RAW! Thank you all.
**Vince leaves the press conference with some fans shouting, "Thank you Vince!"
