Perspective: The professional wrestling impresario has always done things his way, no matter what kinds of enemies it made him. But his superagent new boss is no pushover.
This kind of arrangement is almost entirely unprecedented for WWE, where McMahon has ruled, unopposed, for nearly 40 years. Founded in 1957 by McMahon’s father, Vincent James McMahon, the Northeastern pro wrestling company was family-owned for decades. It became a dominant force in this theatrical, sports-imitating art form.McMahon gradually bought the company from his dad in the early 1980s.
His father died a lonely man. Very few of his old pals in the wrestling industry came to pay their respects during his stay in the cancer ward. They were furious with the younger McMahon for upending what they’d built. He bought Stu Hart’s Canadian territory; the Hart family says Stu never got paid a dime for it, but they didn’t sue because their son, Bret, would lose his new job with McMahon’s company.And, many years later, after Bret signed a contract guaranteeing him control over how his in-ring character was written out of the WWF’s storyline, McMahon flipped the script without telling Bret and had the grappler lose in historically humiliating fashion during a championship match in Montreal.
If he does, it will be a proverbial meeting of the unstoppable force and the immovable object. McMahon may have to roll over on some things to appease his ostensible superior, but he’s played the long game before, only to plot an operatic revenge. He swiftly acquiesced to Bret Hart’s demands during their contact negotiation — only to completely ignore them when the time came for Hart’s Montreal coup de grace.
