Mr. McMahon (now with SD Spoiler)
 

Vince said recently (sorry, can't remember where) that the Mr. McMahon character was dead, what does everybody think of this?

I personally loved Vince as the heel because he played the role of a heel very well. It basically was him and Stone Cold that got the viewers back. People like The Rock etc made sure they stayed.

But i ask you this, Mr. McMahon thumbs up or thumbs down?

:y:

:y: I give him a thumbs up. Like you said Austin and McMahon got the viewers back and I thought that Vince played the character to perfection.

Thumbs up, definitely. I mean how easy was it to hate him? with the affairs and just basically screwing everyone over.

I also liked his music, "no chance in hell"-I always thought that referred to him managing to leave a match without bleeding

:y: Mr.McMahon kicks ass

I think it's better that he does quit the character. For the time, it was an excellent character, but he did get stale after a while. I think it'd be boring if every Monday night Vince came out and screwed somebody over.

I loved the Mr Mcmahon character.But it had run its corse and became really stale.Still think hes one lucky sob,Making out with Sable,Torrie,Trish and stacy.God bless Mr Mcmahon

Back in the day i'd give a thumbs up, but I think his character has run its course, so now I just want wrestlers to be on tv, not Ownership.

"Mr. McMahon" is a great character that has been ripped off by every single wrestling promotion with a TV show, but it is not really needed anymore. Mr.McMahon is dead and needs to stay that way. I think it really has to do (if this is true) because Mr. McMahon may not be such a stretch from the truth.


Great character and it needs to say that way or it will kill off its greatness like so many people/characters do.

I think it would be difficult to find more than a handful of people who didn't find McMahon entertaining. The problem, like everything else is that he was overused and they kept going to back to the well. And in a lot of ways the current structure (GMs) is just another incarnation of the Mr McMahon character. I wouldn't want to see him back as a regular, because I dont think there is anywhere else for them to go with it, but at the same time, everytime he comes back, ratings go up, so.

What makes you think that Vince is similar to the character that he plays on tv? I highly doubt that he is that much of an asshole in real life.

I enjoyed the Mr. McMahon character, but he took it too far sometimes (Kiss My Ass Club, Vince winning the Royal Rumble, etc.). Still, it made for good tv and I would enjoy it if he returned again.

dont forget having HHH job to him lol

I'm willing to bet that he IS that much of an asshole in real life, just that he can't get away with as much. He would if he could, but he can't so he won't, basically.

I enjoyed the McMahon character, but they overdid it at times. Anyway, when you find the source, please link to it.

You said everything i was gonna say first so :mad: but at the sametime :y:

He was a great character, and his feud with Austin was classic, but recently, he'd gotten stale. Plus, his stealing mic time and PPV time away from actual wrestlers wasn't too good either, so I'd say it's run past its course and it's good that the character is dead (if that's indeed true).

:y: though if he tried to be on TV more with the gimmick :n: because while he was on it was entertaining, doing it now is overkill.

:'( No more Kiss My ASS fan club.

:y:

:y:

I loved the Mr. McMahon charcter... I liked how he, the owner, got physical and stuff too... Although winning the Rumble, like someone said, may have been over kill... But he was always great at it...

If they were to bring the Mr. McMahon charcter back now, it may not work unless it's tweaked alot... I dunno how they could tweak it though, because back in the day (God I feel old saying that) it was played perfectly to a T...

Like everyone have already said, I liked the character back in the day but bringing him back would suck hardcore. I like the way he appears for big matches now, but other then that stays off T.V.

Bischoff will not get stale for a while IMO, plus he is the man, you gotta love that smile.

Hey, I was looking forward to Mr.Mchmahon vs. The Cat, but I guess they never got around to it......

:y:

:y:

There should be a poll here.

Nah, no poll. Just a thumbs up or down.

Mr. McMahon, you loved to hate him, but you also loved him for what he did, he wasn't just an owner, he was a worker. I respect that.

At one time, the "Mr. McMahon" character was very cool. Then, like other people have said, it got tired. I would like Vince to come back on TV though, either as face or heel, even if only for a little while. I miss him.

Mr. Mcmahon was a great heel. Probly the greatest of all time :y:

He was awesome, until he feuded with Steph...that sucked

The Mr.McMahon character was good in its time but Vince is getting old and his last few feuds sucked. Maybe Shane could take over the role. BTW When and/or is Shane returning to WWE tv?

iiiight....

I agree. :y: ..that feud was kinda hard to watch.

:y:

You were saying?

Where's the spoiler? :D

I laughed my ass off while watching Smack Down! and he came down with his "walk"...

definitely thumbs up, but glad he's moved on

:y:

Vince has made so many face/heel turns......but the Mcmahons have always brought controversy to the storylines, so I say keep lettin' em loose.

my sister was in the room when he came back on Smackdown, she thought he had something up his ass

:y: Mr. McMahon was definitely the man, he could play any role perfectly. Some stuff he did was just vile and really wanted you to really hate him, such as the Greater Power revealed. And like every character, he has a few of his trademarks, ie. the power walk/strut, the gulp of fear.... But I really loved Vince as a face. Just those surprise returns to help out the good guy were really mark out moments. One of the biggest to me was before WM 2000 when he returned to help the Rock beat the Big Show. That was an awesome finish to a RAW.
