Vince McMahon is perhaps the most polarizing figure in the world of pro-wrestling (sorry John Cena). There are people from WWE and from elsewhere who hate his guts, and there are people who still vouch for Vince’s soft side.

However, one thing that no one can take away from the WWE chairman is the vision and success he achieved and has helped achieve for the performers of his promotion. It was Vince McMahon who changed the traditional territory system and made pro-wrestling a global phenomenon with the help of TV.

“Vince [McMahon] has taught me so much about business that I can make a living during this quarantine. I’m feeding my family off the stuff that I was taught. You cant repay people like that, you just have to pass it on.” said Herry.

The power-lifter worked for the boss for over twenty years and learned a lot. However, there have been questions in the minds of fans as to why Henry was treated like a mid-carder.

Eventually, it looks like Henry now knows the ‘behind the scenes’ of the industry and how are ideas created.
