So what I'm reading is that Vince helped "WWE / the promotion" at the expense of "the industry".

Without WWE being the big dog in the yard, the "industry" as a whole would have floundered long ago. WWE kept pro wrestling relevant. Could you imagine in today's cultural landscape (if WWE ceased to exist) how well a glorified carnival act would go over with millennials? I don't think Dusty Rhodes could compete with Steph Curry on a bang-for-bucks ratio
