After Vince McMahon, who was perhaps the most brilliant mind in professional wrestling, departed the industry, there was a substantial shift in the industry. The billionaire, who used his creativity and intellect to grow the WWE into the greatest pro wrestling organization, also popularized the entire business.

Cole replies, “Vince McMahon. I work under Vince for 25 years. And I knew nothing else. He was the second dad to me in many ways. It was a shock when it first happened. I think we’ve all settled in and we’ve realized, hey the show must go on. That’s what Vince always said, and the show is going on and we’re doing well.”
