A short character analysis from your friend The Pipe:
Vince McMahon is only good when facing adversity.
The last few weeks I have seen more improvement in WWE than I saw in the previous ten YEARS.
Vince made adjustments on just about every technical level.... And now he is actually showing signs of allowing wrestlers creative control over their storylines.
Sasha Banks is at the top of the card.... Which was basically impossible last year.
Vince grew up being beaten by stepfathers in the ass crack of North Carolina. He was almost a full grown man when he started working with his real dad. He didn't grow up as a top dog. He grew up as an underdog.
Think about it: Every time Vince is the underdog, he goes Super Saiyan. But when he is on top.... He doesn't know how to improve. That's why he started the XFL.... He HAS to be an underdog at something, otherwise he isn't comfortable.
He is back to being comfortable in WWE now.
