Kal-El814 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 It’s really wild to think about the extent to which Vince has both advanced wrestling and held it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’d maintain majority shares but wouldn’t be on the board or CEO anymore. Not everyone on the board works for WWE, I believe the ceo of General Motors is one of the 12 board members, for example. I think Laurinaitis will take the majority fall for this, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least thats what some wrestling journalist guy was saying yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some go by ownership percentage, others do a simple majority - I have no idea how WWE’s have theirs established. It would be a removal of him from the board, but not necessarily as the owner.

I just found the journalists name. Metzler or something, and he said wwe was set up so that they couldn't take the company in a hostile takeover, and that he owns 84% of all voting stock. He was on a show of some guy who recently had a match against McMahon? I don't watch at all, so sorry I can't be more specific on these people.

Yes, McMahon is the majority shareholder, but that doesn't mean necessarily mean he can't be voted out in this instance as we don't know how the board is set-up in terms of the operating agreement.

It's set-up so a hostile take-over cannot happen, not so Vince cannot be removed from the board of directors. It's two different things. We also do not know if a board member loses their right to a vote when an investigation is about them. To clarify, I am not suggesting that he will be removed, I'm just stating it's possible (however unlikely). The only thing that can bite him in the ass on this is the paralegal's salary more than doubling upon the time their relationship began. Everything else was consensual and used Vince's own money.

BloodyHell Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Steroids treated as more damaging than rape. God Damn America. I didn't even know this occurred during the steroid scandal, so its doubtful it was given real time in the media after the Geraldo show.

Well, I have no idea who the rockstar guys are. For sure, never implied that they weren't all shit stains. Kotick came from money IIRC. Vince grew up poor as dirt. His dad had money but wanted nothing to do with him for a long time (If I remember correctly, before his dad left, Vince's father would beat the shit out of him and his mom). He still sucks, I'm just saying he at least clawed his way to where he is now money-wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started a software company in university, and got funding from Steve Wynn. Quit university and worked for his company until him and his partner bought 25% of Activision as it was about to go bankrupt. Then they meged the two, and the rest is history.
