We all know at this point the mindset of Vince McMahon. Through the various interviews with John Cena and Dwayne Johnson, we have heard about his brilliance in capturing a new market. But hearing it from Kane put a different light on the topic as he gives many instances of Vince’s genius.
Kane’s interview with Honest Offense
Kane, while talking about Vince and his business strategies, said, “You look at pay-per-view, if you go to www.payperview.com, you get redirected to WWE. Vince did not invent pay-per-view, but you can make an argument that he was the guy that perfected it… WWE Network, which originally was going to be a cable network, and then he decided ‘we’re going put it online, move all the pay-per-views to a monthly subscription,’ we all thought he was crazy for that because pay-per-view made up half the companies revenue.”
He continued saying, “I remember, the stock sunk, ‘Vince McMahon is an idiot,’ people were talking about suing… He can figure out where entertainment, technology, and delivery is going and he ends up getting there first. It’s like he has a weird ESP about it.”
