So if Stephanie is Talia, which would mean that Triple H is Batman, who is Shawn ? The Commissioner Gordon ?

Best believe Trump is paying lawyers out his ass. Dude is out here hocking $60 bibles with American docs jammed in them. He's basically spending the entire Republican war chest on his own legal defense and campaigning on his name recognition. The more he gets prosecuted, the more money his drones send him.


willpauer

1. Moving assets outside of where the courts can reach them. 2. Establishing liquidity to fight cases. 3. Funding Trump, possibly buying the running mate spot in 2024.

"IF YOU WANT ME TO OPEN A CAN OF VICE PRESIDENTIAL WHOOP ASS ON THIS SORRY SOME BITCH, GIVE ME A HELL YEAH!" *HELL YEAH!* Vince tries to rebuttal..... WHAT? WHAT? WHAT?


darkstarr99

I was picturing Vince walking out to the podium, steel chair in hand until that last line


godbody1983

I was with you until 3. I can see him giving money to the Trump campaign, but that's as far as it will go. No way Trump would have him as his running mate.


DamnStupidFlanders

Look at the state of this country now Look at the fact that he already won on a platform of “I’m lying, but believe my alternative facts anyway” 4 years of COVID, trade deals, Russia, lies, chaos, tribalism, hatred, instigation, and an unbelievable amount of straight up idiocy (“can we inject BLEACH into our veins to cure COVID, doc?”) The fact that it took the most votes of ALL time to beat him in 2021 after he wanted to RUN THAT SHIT BACK. People were so pissed off they STORMED THE CAPITOL TO TRY TO HANG HIS VP The fact that Trump is even running at all (and unfortunately I think he will fucking WIN) tells me not to count out FUCKING ANYTHING. And Vince is just like him but worse. He’d do it just to watch the world burn


berkayblacksmith

USA's presidential votes not being based on popular votes is absolutely moronic. If it was based on it then there wouldn't even be a Republican president in decades unless they changed their tactics to appease to more people instead of extremists. That would get them closer to the center.


eatyrmakeup

That’s exactly why they’ve spent decades gerrymandering the shit out of the country.


SteveRudzinski

It's absolutely bonkers to me. I can understand the argument for having equal representation in the senate, having one place where barely populated states have an equal voice makes some sense. But in the modern day the president not being elected by popular vote is silly. The majority of a population overall should be the ones choosing the leader of all of the people of the nation.


jrr6415sun

Trump supporters will do anything trump says, if trump says like vince mcmahon trump supporters will like vince mcmahon

Punk did once say that Vince was a millionaire who should be a billionaire. Maybe he’s now finally trying to get there.


iamcrazyjoe

He's been one for a long time. Very very few if any billionaires have literally a billion dollars of liquid cash.


yetagainitry

Guessing he’s moving all of that offshore to avoid his civil suits.


NotClayMerritt

There's probably a reason behind it that I'm unaware because I'm not business smart, but I wonder why he wouldn't just cash out all his stock now. TKO made it clear he's not coming back, WWE have already started to give him the Benoit treatment. He can get all his money now and do whatever.


youthfulnegativity

It doesn't work like that - there's limits on how much you can offload when you hold the volume VKM has. It could tank their market value for a short amount of time.


scionoflogic

Actually in this case there isn’t a limit. It’s a big note in their filings under risks that the deal with Vince is that he can sell any volume of stock at any time.


Imaginary_Sea5117

I'd imagine part of his separation included a handshake agreement about how he would sell off. This helps him maximize his earnings, in theory, as well.


Pretend_Spray_11

Selling the entirety of his shares all at once would hurt the value of those shares he is selling.


Inurendoh

Seems like a lot of billionaires are cashing out of stocks lately. Things that make you go hmmm. 🤔


kirblar

Trump tax cuts might expire if Biden reelected.


Fun_Actuator_6160

Yeah it’s really this.


Chergos

You don't pay taxes on stocks you hold. You do if you sell the off though


Inurendoh

That makes sense. Cash is a depreciating asset and stonks only go up though.


FyreWulff

Vavent

WhiteTrash_WithClass

I hope they all have that final night just gripped with existentialist dread at the life they wasted...


kirblar

At Vince's age he's not worried about long term investments.


StarWolf478

Vince told Kurt Angle that he plans on living until he is 120 years old.


Da5ren

More time to spend in jail. 🤭


Cynixxx

One can dream. This guy will never see jail time. Just look at Trump. That's not how the US Justice system works


RumsfeldIsntDead

He's probably staggering it out so one giant dump if 15% of the stock or whatever it is won't tank it and lead to him getting less money.


aerinws

Under Rule 144, you’re only allowed to trade a certain amount of shares in a 3 month period. The shares he has are restricted, so they had to file a Form 144 to clear the restriction so he could sell (go to the SEC Edgar system and you can see it). So he’s subject to whatever the volume limit is.


Blueskyways

Yeah it doesn't work that way.  Judges  frown heavily on people trying to hide assets in the midst of a lawsuit.  


VNProWrestlingfan

I want WWE to edit Vince out and replace him with Jimmy Wang Yamg.


nascarfan624

When I was a kid, I have no idea why but I was such a Jimmy Wang Yang fan. This was when I thought wrestling was real, I always thought why he didn't bring a lasso to the ring and just hogtied his opponents


PretendThisIsMyName

I was also a JWY mark but I couldn’t tell you why to this day. What’s even funnier is that every year when the rumble rolls around or when a match has a mystery opponent, I sit here waiting for the Wanger.


nascarfan624

I believe in all of my heart that the reason I enjoy musicians like Brooks & Dunn, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash and the like is because of Jimmy Wang Yang's theme song. I wore out the replay button on YouTube in 2007/2008. That song slaps


Dkcg0113

His tag team with Shannon Moore was a gem in an absolute dregs of the tag team division in 2008.


CHZRFan

As a Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder fan, ouch.


TurkNowitzki28

Back when team names were banned. I swear I came up in a time in wrestling team names were not given to anybody. Lots of blank and blank. This is before the showmizzes, jerishows, and awesome truths of the world. Paul London and Brian Kendrick never had a team name and I don’t know what it would even be. That’s wild.


joeynomame95

I think they tried Londrick and The Hooligans for Kendrick and London


Aidanator800

I literally only knew him from SvR 2009, since I didn't start watching WWE until 2011 lol. It sucks that the only game he's in is one of the 2 (alongside 2010) that don't have any type of game mode to simulate the weekly product (such as Universe Mode, GM Mode, Season Mode, etc.), meaning that I couldn't make him the world champion in anything besides exhibition.


marvintran76

Same. I just thought he ran up the corner so smooth for that moonsault, it was nice!


Ironicopinion

That’s hilarious because I think I was too and I dunno why lmao I also loved the Mexicools


__Hello_my_name_is__

I want WWE to do an elaborate angle in which it turns out that Vince McMahon never existed, but has always been a figment of our imagination. Go all out: Photoshop him out of old pictures. Replace him with other authority figures at the time. Explain how his appearance at the Royal Rumble was just swamp gas from a weather balloon that reflected the light from Venus.


VNProWrestlingfan

When we search "McMahon" in wwe.com. This result turns up. https://preview.redd.it/gjgk8h4zw6rc1.png?width=1313&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e4902a38efbad659fdd08b6ea123fd57e28fe5eb This is the most obvious evidence that there is no one called Vincent Kennedy McMahon in WWE. It was Jimmy Wang Yang who screwed Bret.

Love it! With the advances in AI technology, you could replace his voice in old broadcasts with whatever wrestler you want at the time.

Heck, have a modern wrestler do it and give them some sort of a time traveler gimmick.

This thread is the sweetest ode to JWY, and it makes my heart happy. Did you know that his daughter wrestles? I just found out looking up his theme song. Thanks for the gift everyone!


VNProWrestlingfan

Damn, I only did this comment because of the "McMahon" search result in wwe.com. But I'm happy for you! And your daughter wrestles too? How long has she been wrestling? Wait the fuck up, it's HIS daughter. Damnit, I'm such an idiot


virtual_alicia

Hahaha! I was like, “oh no! Not me!” Glad that got cleared up


Useful_Respect3339

Vince's wang is exactly what got him into trouble


mark_target

Why do that when a blue dot covering his face would be so much more poetic?


dystopiabatman

Maybe just me, but name the MF. Yeah it’s a risk, but I see it like Hitler. We need to learn about who these sick bastards were/are at some point in life. Both as an example of what not to be as a human, and to be able to spot this behavior in people, before they do harm. Hopefully never let history repeat itself, but not optimistic as more of these similar sick allegations come out about famous people. Vince McMahon is just one on a spectrum of the most vile humanity has to offer.


[deleted]

Including singing Stand Back at the 1987 Slammies?


gimpisgawd

Vince is going to sell enough of his assets to buy a rocket ship from Elon Musk so he can forever be known in real history and the history of shit jokes as the first man to fly straight into Uranus.

Vince (on a makeshift raft in the Caribbean): well if its a crime to love my country then I’m guilty! And if its a crime to give a trillion dollars to Cuba then I’m guilty of that too! And if its a crime to bribe a jury then so help me I’ll soon be guilty of *that!* Bruce Pritchard: [saluting] God Bless America!


elgregerico

Ok, but if the feds are looking through their files, what else might they find? Vince is already an unstable old rich guy. Then he sees his good friend Donald get hit with 98 million dollar defamation fee and a 500 million dollar fee over business practices. Might make a paranoid person build a war chest


Cynixxx

>a 500 million dollar fee over business practices. Which just got more than halved just because despite his behavior


middleagethreat

Has he tried selling gold sneakers or fascist bibles?


Quasimdo

So how much has he made selling this stock?


CmPunkChants

So far around $512 million. Edit: as u/NotClayMerritt pointed out, Vince sold $670 million worth back in November last year so his total sale is over $1 billion at this point.


Mediocre_Brief_8233

That's enough for an election campaign


PercivalBlatherskite

Don't you put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby.


acekingoffsuit

Linda McMahon for Senate 3: Electric Boogalee


NotClayMerritt

More than that. He sold $670 million worth of shares back in November. Edit: Just looked it up. So he sold that much in November, he netted $408 million earlier in March and now has sold an additional $100 million this week. Unless I'm missing another story about this somewhere, he's sold $1.1 billion worth of shares since November.


Solid-Discipline-210

I’ve always wondered if he wanted back into football I don’t think he has enough to buy an entire team but I’m sure he could get a minority ownership


mister_damage

![gif](giphy|ijPM8csbc5fLG|downsized) Should be enough to buy Denver Broncos.

Smaynard6000

The NFL didn't let Trump in during the 80s, and there's no way they would let Vince in after they finally got rid of Dan Snyder

The article says he’s sold 1.2 billion worth and his remaining stock is valued at about 1 billion.

It's crazy to think that McMahon's net worth effectively doubled as a result of his forced exit. Business can be wild.


HerFriendRed

"Golden parachutes" Believe it or not I've heard of C-suite people purposely take positions as bad guys at failing companies so they can come in make changes, layoffs, get blamed and then fired for doing the board's bidding, and take their "golden parachute" and leave. It's actually legal.


HerFriendRed

Screams "fuck yall I'm going to make all the money anyways." Dude is gonna live maybe 10 more years max. It's purely his money and his mother's good genes he's still kicking despite clearly using "sports supplements" and it's amazing that he still wants to carny to the end. I mean, it's his company fair enough.

Those court fees are going to add up. He would be wise to try and get the most out of his stock now before any legal action may prevent him. Hopefully he will be tried fairly. We already have one notoroius billionaire facing half a billion fines. It could happen to the wrestling one soon. Plus TKO really don't want Vince's name anywhere near the company now. It have also been coerced by the financial people/executives as well.
