Solomonster On Why It's Time For Vince McMahon To Leave WWE 

After all these years we misheard “no chance” when it was really no pants.

The most interesting things that come out of WWE aren't even scripted, the irony of it all

You could have a whole season of Dark Side of the Ring based on Vince McMahon controversies

"This is not an episode of Law & Order." It's not, but if it was, Benson and the rest of SVU would put this guy away.

This is the biggest story in wrestling that they completely forgot the Jeff Hardy DUI incident

This year just keeps getting crazier and crazier by the month

If he tunes out "negativity" such as creative options from other people then from here on out stop going on t.v. and implying that you listen to your fans like the McMahon family did on raw, I'd rather you just come out and admit you don't care instead of getting people's hopes up and letting them down.

He's going to fight leaving until his final breath.

This summer of wrestling news in 2022 has to be the wildest we've ever seen in ages. We've been getting more explosive stories left and right. Nothing surprises me with Vince McMahon and his heinous behavior with women. I'm surprised at the description of these stories. But I don't believe he will step down because he's too prideful to quit. He firmly believes the company will die without him, and most of us with half a brain will tell you that's not true. This will be the biggest part of his legacy as a wrestling promoter and it's only going to get worse. Buckle up people.

Vince should’ve been gone YEARS ago.

“Hush Money in The Bank” …. I said it once I’ve said it again and again… Solomonster is my spirit animal.

"Paid more hush money than he paid for WCW." Ouch.

Does he need to go? Fuck yes he absolutely does! Will he? Absolutely not!

I think that even if Vince stepped down voluntarily (which I just don't see happening) he'd drop dead within a week. This company is so ingrained in his identity that he probably wouldn't know what to do with himself.

This aged really really well.

The only thing that is shocking me right now is that it's just four. I expect to see more brought up.

After that chairperson stepped down, that tells me that weren’t going to try and force Vince out, and this person didn’t want their reputation sullied.

I agree with everything Solo just said but when it comes to Vince steeping down I'm taking the "I don't believe in until I see it" approaches because with all the stuff we've seen him get away with over the years, Until we actually see him get order 66'd from the company, he'll more than likely slither away from this... AGAIN

He killed Owen Hart and got away with it. So I doubt that a sex scandal will lead to his demise.

“HUSH Money in the Bank” is soo fkn clever! 🤣🤣🤣

This, THIS is why I very seldom respect ANYONE in power no matter who they are. It doesn't take a Spider Man comic to tell you that the more powerful you are the more responsible you gotta be. McMahon has NOT been responsible, in ANY shape or form. For a VERY long time.

Vince Russo and Jim Cornette will hug and kiss before Vince McMahon steps down.

*stands up and applauds* Solomonster hit the nail on the head with this one. This is the absolute best take on all this nonsense I’ve heard. I have seen so many stupid people and I don’t really like calling people names but the people that I’ve seen saying this are absolutely stupid, that they are arguing with people online that think Vince McMahon should step aside and their argument solely is “look it was consensual they wanted to sleep with Vince McMahon and then they took The money to agree to be quiet about it. It’s not like he forced anyone to do anything and then paid them”. It never crossed their minds either that or they’re just so in love with WWE and Vince McMahon they’re in denial that the company of course is going to try to paint the best picture they can. Of course they’re going to say it was consensual. But there are it sounds like at least one or two ladies that have come forward and said it was not consensual. And I’ve actually said that to someone and they said in reply to me “ well even if he forced one or two the other three or four were consensual though” i’m sorry but any number other than zero is unacceptable when it comes to forcing a woman to have sex with you. I heard the stories from Vince McMahon himself in an interview over 15 years ago where he admitted to cheating on Linda and I thought that was still pretty bad because yeah you cheated on your wife but in this interview he was speaking on it like it was all something that happened back in the 80s and he’s been loyal to Linda ever since. Yes I’m a southern wrestling fan that hasn’t been happy the last 20 years because southern wrestling is gone and I know that doesn’t have anything to do with this but really one of the things that push me away from WWE around 2003 through 2006 was how I saw him treating the WCW and ECW wrestlers. Other than Booker T. just about every one of those guys That came in with a lot of momentum with fans support was jobbed out and ruined for no other reason than because Vince McMahon could do it. Anyone that just ruin somebody’s career because they can isn’t a good person. And someone that does that is also someone that probably has a God complex and thinks they can do whatever the fuck they want to do when there’s no consequences for their actions. So no it’s no surprise at all to hear all of this and then have Vince McMahon come out on TV practically skipping gleefully like there’s nothing that can happen to him. We’ve known he’s been a lying scumbag for years that had no problem ruining peoples lives simply because they worked at a company that wasn’t his and I don’t care if three or four of these women were having consensual sex with him if he raped even one person that’s not OK. Anyone that still bowing down to Vince McMahon when he walks out to his theme song is a moron. He’s ran his own company as far as the quality of the product into the dirt the last 15 years. I can’t think of one positive thing to say he has done in 15 years. He’s a billionaire and he feels entitled and those are the worst kinds of people. Scumbags with mountains of money that use it to treat other people terribly and that’s who Vince McMahon is.

"WWE has released Vincent Kennedy McMahon. We wish him well in his future endeavors." *90 days later.... Vincent Kennedy McMahon is ALL ELITE (As a master of the custodial arts, scrubbing toilets)

This would be a good dark side of the ring episode in the future. I could see a Solomonster review of this.

Velveteen Dream got fired for the same allegations as Vince and Johnny Ace. Funny how life works.

"Hush Money in the Bank" 👏👏👏 That's f'n gold, Sol

"PG', huh? WWE is more like "X-Rated" thanks to Vince!

Thanks for the video Solo! I guess this answers my question I left on the chat this past Friday Night prior to your Rampage review. I concur with your assessment on this situation. 42 years is long enough! The time has come!

I think it's time that Vince McMahon steps down because the longer he's still in power it's going to affect the company's image even more. But I don't think he'll do it willingly. Will WWE suffer if Vince McMahon is completely gone? In the short term yes because the investors don't really trust anyone but Vince McMahon so they might lose some money down the road but it will all work out in the long term because it's freaking WWE. They always rebound.

The only way I realistically see Vince step down if something happens to severely threaten the profit margin of the company.

The problem is that due to the stock structure, the bar to completely remove Vince is almost impossibly high unless he agrees to go. Honesty, I wouldn't be surprised if the McMahons make some type of move to try to take the company private again before all this is said and done. The problem is people are expecting Vince to respond to this situation like a normal executive would, but he likely won't do that because he's not a normal person.

When I saw Stephanie sitting next to Vince at the UFC show, it really struck me that millionaires and billionaires and people like that are just total aliens. I'd want to kick my fathers ass if I heard even half the stuff about him that has come out about Vince, but she just smiles and apparently doesn't give a fuck.

He won’t leave though. He’s an arrogant old narcissist who does not believe that he should be held accountable for anything. Make me respect Sasha and Naomi even more for seemingly telling him to go kick rocks as well.

When hearing about this I can't help but think of the suicide of Ashley Massaro and wonder if any of this had any kind of factor in that tragedy.

None of this dirty laundry about Vince is shocking when you think about, the fact that he's kissed his own female employees on WWE television, and forced one of them to bark like a dog. What about all of those bra and panties matches, lingerie pillow fights, and women posing naked for Playboy magazines in bikinis ? It makes sense when you think about it in hindsight. 😂

Vince aint gonna just go off quietly into the night. If he's somehow forced out, he's gonna hole himself up at the top of Titan Tower and put on a Scarface-style last stand. *"SAY HELLO TO MY GIANT GRAPEFRUITS! "*

This is what Vince meant when he said he was gonna inject venom into the WWE

Creatively, Vince has been a liability since 2012.

Stephanie is clearly NOT in charge of anything....nice thumbnail by the way (Hush Money in the Bank)....LOL

I stopped caring about wrestling ever since the Attitude Era ending & WCW Closing down.

I am just so disgusted because there's an idea that if it's a consenual relationship it's no big deal and it truly is a huge deal. What exactly,as a woman,do you do when you are being sexually harassed,you're being asked to do things you may not want to and you're being sent unsoliciated nudes and the person doing it is your boss? Who do you report it to? If you say anything you're screwed so what exactly can you do? Pretend everything is okay? Agree to do things you don't want to do and even if you want to it just seems like the power dynamic is so far off because what if you piss them off? They can fire you,they can end your push,and hell,they can kill your career and like you said,Jason,he's not going anywhere. He's going to keep thinking that he can do whatever he wants because he doesn't have to deal with the fallout. I cannot imagine being the women in WWE,who he harassed during the Diva Search era,because you're being degraded on Tv,you're having to parade around in tight,revealing outfits,and when you get backstage you get sexualy harassed by Vince? As far as Johnny Asshat goes I'm literally over here throwing up in my own mouth over the fact that he is married to Nikki and Brie Bella's mother and he found them in a bikini catalouge. I don't even want to think about it but considering what we know now I wouldn't be too surprised that he fantasized about one or both of them calling him "Daddy" while he was looking through one of those catalouges in a hotelroom late at night.

Well said Solomonster. The more Vince hangs on to control, the more it will hurt his company in the long run (granted that's been the case with Vince McMahon and WWE for over a decade).

I don’t think Vince would even know what to do if he gets kicked out Willem Dafoe/Spider-Man style. The man has dedicated his entire life to the wrestling business. He doesn’t know anything else.

It doesn't matter if Vince paid out with his own cash or WWE's money. At the end of the day, he's still the CEO and Chairman of a publicaly traded company. This kind of behavior shouldn't be welcomed by anyone, including those at the top. Only thing that could make things worse is if he misused company money. What he's done is bad enough.

Without criminal charges, I'm afraid these allegations feel like a hit job rather than justice.

Vince screwed Vince! Remember Wrestling with Shadows documentary when Mrs. Hart was telling the glorified mid card future son-in-law what was going to happen...let's see what the future holds for Mr. Hunter McMahon

So what you're saying is had Vince controlled himself and beat his meat more often. His meat wouldn't have beat him.

I watched like 20 minutes of smackdown tried to get into it, then just turned off the television during a commercial break. It's the worst "wrestling" show I have ever seen at this point.

It's not "two consenting adults" when one person is the Billionaire CEO and the other is an employee needing the job to survive.

This could actually be used into a very good power struggle story between triple h/Stephanie vs Vince/Shane if done right. Bring some of the stories into why trips and Stephanie want him to step down and put him out like he did to his father.

The WWE under Vince’s direction has become the South Park episode, season 13 episode 10 W.T.F. No wrestling and all soap opera. Vince and Bruce along with the insider trading of Bucky beaver all need to be gone.

I honestly don’t understand how people do not get that this is an abuse of power. I don’t think someone can consent when the person’s career on the line. I don’t think he will go to jail, but he should step down from his position. So many people were taken out of their positions of power due to things like this so why should Vince be left alone?

Hopefully some day soon Hunter Will overtake Vince position as the head honcho in WWE

How do you make these awesome thumbnails bro?

Picard" 'How many people does it take...before it becomes wrong ?'.

Crazy that people still watch this product. I cut out in 2014. I watched off and on since around 1985. It’s just too scummy for scummy for me.

Someone even more important than Vince, or Jerry McDevitt, said "You're going to retire right now" and it was done. It must be REALLY bad because Vince wants to die in the saddle. He won't know what to do with himself if he can't be the man in charge.

It gonna be a miracle if Jerry McDevitt gets him out of this one.

The only way vince will go is if advertisers, sponsors and the network's get involved. If fox and NBCUNIVERSAL threaten to pull raw and smackdown off the air unless vince is gone completely thars the only scenario i see him leaving

For those not familiar with Donald Sterling, this might be the road Vince is taking

Man this was excellent Solomonster!! You hit the 🎯 with this one!! 👏👏👏👏👏

I was never much a fan of Law and Order but there is one line that always stuck out to me and it goes for the people making the while "innocent until proven guilty" excuse "There's a difference between innocent and not guilty"

I don't think when Vince McMahon said "F 'em!," it wasn't a response towards the allegations. That line was aimed towards the fans who wanted Vince out of the company. Why did he went out to the ring on SD and Raw? So he can prove to everybody that he's still in charge, and he's not going anywhere, even though he placed his daughter, Stephanie as the new interm CEO. That's what he meant. He played everybody for a sucker.

Kudos to your graphics team lol

Only way I see him stepping down is if either the networks or the sponsors talk about pulling out. Once people's wallets start getting lighter, that's when he'll feel the need to step down. Until then? Nah

This is the best heel turn in decades!

Who are the names people think they are?

Mr Happy pants LOLOLOL

If Vince does step down it'll be the biggest story not just in wrestling, but in all off media. In all honesty I'll believe it when I see it. I have a feeling he isn't gonna step down without a fight

15:00 I agree. It’s kinda gross how some people are leaping to his defense on social media, even a couple in this comment section. The point of all of this is that Vince as the head of a company should never have been engaging in any kind of romantic/sexual relationship with people in his company. There’s a reason why companies have rules against that, it’s too slippery a slope. And not only did he do it, he apparently did it repeatedly. He cannot stay there under those circumstances. Yes, Vince built WWE, he was a pioneer, yada-yada-yada, but WWE has grown to where they can survive without Vince McMahon. They can’t have him there anymore in his position with this kind of history and as long as he continues to behave this amorally.

"Hush Money in the Bank." Priceless. 🤣

Vince is gonna start using Shane's theme, but its gonna go "Here Cums the Money"

You hit the nail on the head with everything here as always.

I don’t see how WWE sponsors and advertisers want to associate with the company considering they still have Vince there interacting with the female talent at every show, and as head of creative he decides how much TV time the female talent gets. Seems awfully scummy given the stories of him abusing that kind of power.

Shame Netflix didn't start filming their documentary a year later, they might've had another Tiger King on their hands.

Never thought Vince and Harvey Weinstein had anything in common. I hope that WWE gets hit right in the nuts with these allegations with their contracts with Fox and USA get cut so they save face.i hope fans see this for the absolute disgusting behavior and stop defending him.

Vince is pretty much Jordan Belfort from Wolf of Wall Street. *“I’M NOT FUCKING LEAVING!”*

12 million? Damn. That's more than what he paid for WCW and ECW combined.

If House of Cards ever gets remade, Nick Khan should be the lead. PS I know people have compared this to Succession. I’ve never watched it, so I have no comment on that.

Definitely a hit job that this is getting leaked, but Vince gotta go though

Now we know why all those superstars who got released really released

i love how a netflix representative calls the vince mcmahon document "shit" but still works at a company which knowingly and shamelessly pushed that fucking cuties movie on the general public. no self awareness at all 😄

My favourite nickname for 2022: Mr Happy pants!!

I'm not so sure we really want Vince gone if he's only replaced by someone just like him at least creative wise.

The person that tries to fill Vince’s shoes has NO CHANCE! Salute to a world changer, all time business titan, and the King of Sports Entertainment. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

There goes Disney's interest in purchasing the company... 😆

If this is true about Vince then it's bad. But most ppl fail to admit that the ones taking the hush money instead of telling the truth are wrong as well.

"he paid with his own money!" sitting here on 7/27 um ooops

She returned in 2018 as well

I hate people who defend stupidity From so call victims.

A lot of people think it’s Christy Hemme but I’m not sure I believe it

That June 17 appearance will probably mark the last time Vince was on tv.

Great video man.

17:00=AMEN

Well…Vince is now gone.

He retired just now!

If nothing happens. They have no one to blame but themselves.The old guard needs to go!

I think the money's pretty much going to the Viagra prescriptions of both Vince and Johnny Ace.

It's just a pointless discussion to have. Everyone knows Vince is out of touch and needs to resign. And everybody also knows he's never going to until he dies or is forced out of the chair. Time will tell if this will be the thing that forces him out, but I'll believe it when I see it.
