Said hi to blonde at corner of ramp on way to ring (not a great start) 2. Foley cheap pop mentioning city. (A little better) 3. Then, Now, Forever, Together(emphasizing "Together"... nothing stupid yet) 4. Threw mic(someone did not catch it, big thud) and left ring, shaking same blondes hand on way out.

TheVileOne Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) Vince McMahon getting a hero's welcome and fans cheering for him saying absolutely nothing is proof that WWE fans are nothing but sheep and part of the problem. Not sure how McMahon is allowed to go out on TV live tonight in the midst of everything going on. Still not sure how Stephanie is allowed to be interim CEO as well in this case, and Vince apparently gets to stay in charge of WWE creative, or so the news stories are saying. Theater of the absurd, but that's WWE for you. 1 hour ago, Eivion said: Did he say anything? I skipped what I thought was an entrance and saw nothing more.

Johnny Sorrow Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) It wasn't exactly a hero's welcome. The crowd shots showed a lot of folks who weren't popping for the old leaf crushing maniac, and I heard a lot of boos amongst the cheers. I'm also pretty sure a lot of those folks have no idea about what's been happening and were just popping for " No Chance" as a living version of Waylon Flowers' Madam puppet croaked some shit into a mic.

odessasteps Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Also possible people were booing "Mr Mcmahon" because that's what you do and not booing VKM, the horrible real person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I won’t get to see Smackdown either. It was just a little 4-5 minute piece about what's going on, mentioned the steroid trial, Linda being in the Trump administration, etc. Meltzer was on there talking about how the McMahons treat it like it's still a "boys will be boys" environment and that obviously doesn't fly in 2022. The best part was the last 10 seconds where the one CNN guy mentioned Vince would be on Smackdown later tonight, and Jake Tapper kind of smirked and rolled his eyes and said "Of course he is". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLowe Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Glad to hear I didn’t miss anything. I did catch the last half hour and it reminded me why I don’t watch or like WWE programming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuerrillaMonsoon Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 I was kinda hoping he'd give the promo Warrior gave on Raw after Mania, word for word. Gives everyone a bit of false hope. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine carrying that much extra musculature into his sixties probably didn’t have the best effect on his body. Not to mention the moon dust he’s been snorting for 50 years… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said absolutely nothing of value. complete waste of time. It was a couple of things including a waste of time. 1. A ratings ploy. I rarely watch SD but tuned in to see what he would say. Fell asleep before the main event. 2. A way for Vince to essentially say "I ain't going nowhere" Together being emphasized shows me he intends to stick it out and not admit his wrongdoings. The guy has no idea of life without wrestling. He doesn't follow sports, media, movies, books. He wouldn't last a month as a retired man and he knows it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
