Ah yes. Hypocritical moral supremacy going on in this topic. Always love seeing it.

Irrespective of that observation, Vince made a lot of people happy as well as miserable. He played up to the "carnie" origins of wrestling as long as he could. Better or worse, he built a megalith with WWE and cemented a legacy most would only dream of. He had a special eye and special perspective for his company. That will be missed.

Vince McMahon wanted Owen Hart to come down from the rafters on a zipline.

Vince McMahon hired the person who did it for Sting, a serious Hollywood stunt professional.

Vince McMahon was not happy with the speed in which Owen Hart would come down this zipline. The professional told him that it wasn't possible to do safely.

Vince McMahon told him to fuck off and wanted it to be faster than Sting's zipline and hired more professionals.

Vince McMahon fired all of those professionals because they told him the same thing.

Vince McMahon hired an amateur who told him that he could get it cut down by a second and used lighter materials that were unsafe.

Vince McMahon watched Owen Hart die as a result of that in the middle of his ring.

Vince McMahon cleaned up his corpse and forced the show to go on and Owen's peers and friends to keep wrestling that night after watching him die.

Vince McMahon denied all wrongdoing and gaslit the public over what happened entirely to absolve himself of any wrongdoing in their eyes.

Vince McMahon went through a lengthy legal battle with Owen Hart's widow, stretching it out purposefully to drain her of all of her money.

Vince McMahon settled for a low cost with Owen Hart's widow after she had no more money to legally fight for the truth.

Vince McMahon demonized and made Owen Hart's widow seem like a crazy person who held a grudge "over an accident" to the public because she didn't want WWE to profit off of her husband, who Vince McMahon killed.

Vince McMahon made a product that made people happy.
