The Vince McMahon Scandal Thread/Linda as Secretary of Education

[Big Boss Man]

I believe Tony tells the story on Dark Side of the Ring too. Brody should've had a run in the WWF, he'd have been a great believable heel to face Hogan.

Going back to Vince, is there anything new or of any substance been said. The early years - WWWF & when he bought up talent from the territories is what interests me most really.

[Bandit]

The really unheard of stuff is probably about Vince and Shane's relationship and how shitty Vince is to him.

The early days stuff was all basic. The longest segment of that would probably be on Wrestlemania 1 and there's nothing really new.

Ok thanks, that's interesting about Vince & Shane, he always seemed to favour Stephanie more.

I forget whether if Vince had a good relationship with his Dad (Vince Sr)?.

Finished the series. The last episode was chilling. Nothing we haven't heard before but I got the feeling that everyone interviewed knew exactly what kind of monster Vince really was. Vince himself seemed so out of touch with reality. Like life is not a pro wrestling angle and you don't need to be *on* 24/7 but I think he lost the ability to turn his wrestling persona off a long time ago, way before the Attitude era.

He was good to him. He gave him everything he asked for. He gave him Maine to run in the 70s and sold WWF to him for under $1 million when it was worth at least $10 million. And he stood up for him against the other territory promoters. They didn't talk about Black Saturday, but on the Dark Side of the Ring they told the story Sr. came to back up Jr. and told everyone in the NWA if they tried to do anything to Vince or the WWF he would back any retaliation.

There's some controversy in this recap. Jim defends Pat Patterson.

The full lawsuit was posted and I'm reading it. Fascinating shit.

Vince apparently settled the government case. The Janel Grant lawsuit was not settled to be clear.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

[Bandit]

One of the most striking new claims in the amended complaint is Grant’s allegation that McMahon instructed her to create pornographic content for Michael Hayes, a longtime WWE creative executive who remains with the company.

I guess she was naked except for a fanny pack.

[Ocelot]

Badstreet USA was in her asshole.

No mo and some grey makes him look younger.
