I agree. I think he has a wealth of knowledge, drive, work ethic and an insatiable appetite for success but I believe he tends to cross the fine line into madness more than he is genius.

I do believe you can have moments of utter genius and not be a genius. I believe Vince McMahon personifies this.

People will see this as a knock on Vince, but just because he's not a genius doesn't take away all that he has done. He is just not as clever as he would love people to think he is.

Early 1980's Vince certainly was a genius and visionary, but like so many, he became lost with the times and never evolved, I'd say by about 1990. The last 25 years have been nothing but Vince preying on incompetent competition and the 1996-99 period of having his back put against the wall and listening to fan reactions and Vince Russo.

He's a genius in the way that certain public intellectuals are: their thoughts and theories may be perfect for a certain time and era, though they may be obsolete in 2 decades.

I'd honestly say that the attitude era was more Russo than Vince. It's always best not to believe Russo 100%, but I do believe it when he says he had the ideas, but Vince knew how to make them just ever so slightly perfect.
