  • Vince AND Charlie Sheen. That's one batshit crazy show Costas was doing that night.

  • Vince is a brilliant business man. He put himself in harms way multiple times in order to put over a storyline.

  • Just a bit off on that Tyson prediction

  • @apoopsc lol oh well Tyson is still a bad ass in my book

  • i used 2 hate vince but after these 4 vids im starting like him he is a top guy i would love to mug err meet him lollol

  • VInce is a glorified carny and a scumbag.  The world of professional wrestling will be better off when he dies.

  • Mike Tyson will destroy Lennox Lewis in three rounds. Okay Vince, didn't quite work out that way did it?

  • LOL They needed a table this time.

  • LOLThey needed a table this time.

  • 3:55 lol welcome back Mike..more like Mike Tyson ..U GOT KNOCK THE FUCK OUT lol

  • well tyson failed

  • Vince: "listening to our audiences" ...

    What a laugh ... Vince listening to his audience ... lol. The asshole does whatever he wants in his little land of make-believe. He never listens to his audience unless he is backed into a corner and facing bankruptcy (Monday Night Wars).

  • Wow vince just wow.......lennox made tyson look awful....and who really thought tyson was gonna win?

  • @cpress75 nobody lewis was a polished champion

  • LENNOX LEWIS!

  • What a dumb rant at the end.

  • don't quit the day job Vince because if memory serves me right it was Tyson that got destroyed

  • wwe= Winning Winning Entertainment !

  • Post 9/11 characters? lol Anyone remember 2005?

  • When is "responsible journalism" going to break kayfabe and practice with a straight face "news entertainment" or, to be succinct, " propaganda"?

  • I'll never ask Vince for any other sports predictions. Tyson take down Lewis in three rounds? Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

  • Well the 9/11 stuff did come in, just Vince waited couple of years.

  • @IDante1Savage Which makes what he said about Sheik stupid. He did the Hassan character several years into 9/11 and took advantage of how America felt.

  • Winning

  • "Sounds like he has a problem with violence." Lmao

  • @gazz12345a yep, and with mysogyny, racism, ethnocentrism and so forth. where vince is right though and it hurts me to say this as a blak man is the fact that those things do get people riled up and do sell! thats his business, so you play to it. if it stops selling , u stop playing to it.. if u dont like it, do not watch. then again, long as its out there in a MASS masses way, its harder to minimize or get it out of SOCIETY.

  • Destroy Lewis in less than 3 rounds? That prediction went well!

  • Bob Coastas is a short man.

    5'3 1/2" tops

  • Bull shit Vince had the Muhammad Hassan character he was a Muslim that strangled JR for about 10min the ring.

  • @Stargate174 this interview was back in 2002.hassan came in 2004 or 2005

  • @Stargate174 lol this interview was 2002, muhammed hassan debut 2004-5.

  • All Hail Vince McMahon!!!

  • Yes that point moves from time to time, which is getting worse and worse. The line shoulda been drawn a long time ago.

  • Props to Vince !

  • In Vince's quote, he used the words "brashness," "aggressive" and "sexuality." None of those describe the current WWE.

  • @vincentrich yeah, because it wasn't about the current wwe.

  • @OlofDreijer

    My point exactly. THANKS FOR PLAYING!!!

  • Wow this interviewer is such a dryballs douchebag

  • Big it up Lennox Lewis! England and Jamaica showed these Americans who the real champion was. Wow, seriously Vince saying Mike was gonna destroy Lennox.

  • @hitmancoolio

    Bro the only reason why VKM was biggin up Tyson is cause him appearing on RAW saved him from being put out of business by WCW

  • @mazzoanV2 hahahahaha that's hilarious...tyson saved vince from being put out of business by wcw....seriously lol

  • the rock debtued in 96 and was champion in 98 just 2 years later. the rock was i c champ just a few months after he debuted. the rock was pushed. and heavily pushed. he was put in the nation to further develop himself and when he did he left and won the title.

  • Vince is King!! He is one of the best entertainers alive today!!

  • The reason it was indoors at the LA Sports arena as opposed to the Coliseum is specifically because they couldn't sell enough tickets to make it look full. They had a cover for this using security concerns, but the real reason was financial.

  • i hate VKM he stole WCW and lost all its fans

  • wow i hope Vince doesnt predict everything like he has the mike tyson fight! Didnt Lenox Lewis destroy mike in that fight

  • sucks if wrestlemania 7 wouldve been outdoors it wouldve blew wm 3 out the water in terms of attendence record..

  • Tyson Vs Lewwis. He was certainly wrong there ;)

  • @Z3llix gosh if only that prediction was right i wanted lennox to get destroyed

  • Vince would be very scary if you ever met him, he seems like he could flip out any minute.

  • Who's the guy interviewing him? He's a real class act.

  • your kidding right?

  • Comment removed

  • @BassFace2008

    I don't know much about american tv personalities.

  • @SlapstickDizzy

    Do you own a television? Have you ever watched ANY sports? 'The guy' interviewing him is Emmy award winning broadcaster Bob Costas.

  • bring back the sexuality to the show vince. the diva segments suck now!!!

  • Vince the best to d ois fight TNA everybody is going to watch this

  • haha wat an idiot, Lewis destroyed tyson!

  • Idiot? for basically guessing. Seems you're an idiot for not thinking it through.

  • not thinkning wat thru?

  • You fookin pancake

  • you wanking...flapjack

  • mate ur a fookin fried egg with a side order of salad, trust me u fried egg

  • ok u...biscuit

  • scratch that u soggy biscuit

  • Comment removed

  • Haha Vince was slightly off with his Tyson/Lewis prediction. Lennox destroyed Mike!

  • mike tyson from 1988 would whoop ANYONES ass, u name it, hed whoop it

  • not fedor

  • Brock Lesnar. He can't whoop ANYONES ass from the UFC. Boxers are no good if they get taken to the ground.

  • r u kidding? even tyson at his best only could punch guys as tall as him. He never fought anyone worth while. Ali would wup Tyson so would Frazier, Hollyfield did wup him even with a heart condition. Ect. Ect. Ect.

  • This interview was obviously before Muhammed Hassan.

  • If I remember Correctly Booker T and The Rock were black and world champions so im guessing you obviously dont know what your talking about

  • @ThaTopDogg13 The Rock was Samoan and Booker had to wait what 5 years before he got a world title run after the invasion

  • The Rock is Half Black, his dad was Rocky Johnson

  • @str8desi yes but he was half Samoan and the Rock wasn't pushed straight away was he he had to do the whole Nation of Domination as well as win the IC title the point is that if your black in the wrestling world you have to wait for your title shot i mean look at Kofi He is nowhere near getting pushed and he's a very talented athlete

  • @masterofanything The Rock is half Samoan half Black as for Booker whats your point he was still a Champion

  • @ThaTopDogg13 The Rock is black and soman 

  • @ThaTopDogg13 Actually I think Rocky is part Samoan and part Black, so not full black. But your point is valid.

  • @ThaTopDogg13 rock wasnt fully black

  • @ThaTopDogg13

    He's half black, people don't generally ask to be told about a half black guy when they ask if there was ever a black WWE champ.

  • Comment removed

  • ever heard of The Rock or Booker T

  • or Ron "Farooq" Simmons (he was WCW World Champ in the early 90's)

  • You talkin about "black" champs? the Rock is NOT black. He said it himself. He' Samoan, and in case you didn't get the memo: there is NO country called "black".

  • @MartyMoves The Rock's dad is black. Does that not make The Rock part black?

  • He's half black half Samoan.

  • when was the first epidode of WWE RAW rather than WWF RAW?

  • Makes it fair game? Dickhead

  • u a fookin pancake mate, a fookin pancake

  • i didn't think they had rice pudding in the us, or atleast didn't call it that

  • man ur such a pasta strand.

  • ur a cherry bakewell

  • yea well...you're a birds eye fish finger! and im a tin of custard.

  • ur a gordon ramsey meal! BAM!

  • id like u to meet my friends: Racksack Bob, Dufflebag Harry, Handbag Hank and Sleepingbag Frank

  • Lol Vince thought we'd all see the old Mike back, Mike Tyson Prime is loooong gone, and we'll never see it again.

  • the interviewer seems like a dickhead. it's fair game my ass, dumb bastard!!

  • does anyone know the book he is talking about?

  • I do agree with Vinny Mac on that the media focus too much on the personal lives of the people that they're writing and broadcasting about.

  • vince knows fuck all about boxing clearly.

  • Boxing under DK promotions is always a fix anyway so...

  • Tyson will beat Lewis - hmm, shows how much Vince knows...

  • Comment removed

  • when vince said he thought tyson would knock lewis out in the 3rd round...he didnt actually mean that, this what you guys dont get. He said that purely from a business perspective.

  • when mike tyson was younger, he actually fought and use to spar with Lennox Lewis and had even knocked out Lewis the first time they fought (i think it was around the time of tyson first getting into the pros)

  • Lewis was one of the few Tyson didn't knock out when he was younger, he didn't knock out Bruno either. In later matches he beat people he lost to in her earlier career. The problem with Tyson was he went nuts with his own propaganda and lost his focus, then got beat and couldn't get it back.

  • If Vince werent as powerful as he is & as big as he is on a national basis the media etc wouldnt make a effort to throw digs at him & on every opportunity try to hurt him & his billion dollor industry. The fact remains u can name any other promoter from any industry & none will have achieved what Vince McMahon has achieved. They can hide his possitives & expose his negatives all they want but every week Raw will continue 2 gloat that they get more ratings than other programmes etc & dominate.

  • they get more ratings then american idol??? hmm, wonder when that started happening

  • 2.5%?? I think right now it has to be atleast 10-20%, considering that WWE is more PG oriented right now, and that a lot of kids still think that the things that happen in the ring are real.

  • This shows that pro wrestling is a viable form of entertainment. It doesnt matter if its real or not. The wrestlers themselves are atheletes and yes some of personal issues that cross over on camera. Unfortunatley , most of the mainstream media want to concentrate of the negative (Ahem CNN and FOX news). Yes, there have been unfortunate incidences in Pro Wrestling, but as in real life, unfortunatly they happen. Vince, nor pro wrresling, is not to blame

  • are you kraut?

  • when will we see a shoot interview of the sign guy and hat guy from ecw?

  • Yes, vince stick to "predicting" wrestling matches. Not real sports.

  • If Costas really wanted to give a compelling interview he should have really pushed the drug issue. It seems as long as McMahon makes money no one will really pressure him on that subject.

  • Tyson in 3 hunh? Just another thing vinny was wrong about.

  • he probably thought bart gun would take out butterbean in 30 seconds

  • He talked about the young Tyson. Still, I don't know that even the young Tyson could take Lewis in less than three rounds, and Lewis couldn't take Mike in three rounds either. But it would be a hard fight for both men.

    The fight we saw was nothing... it was like Joe Louis vs. Rocky Marciano. Funny enough, just like Marciano, Lewis KO'd Tyson in the 8th round.

  • haha...tyson got smashed!! UK!! UK!! UK!! UK!!

  • Vince only thinks that 2 1/2% of his audience thinks wrestling is "real"?? It's ten times better now than it was back in the 80's and 90's, but I think it's a little higher than 2%. I would guess maybe 15-20%.

  • Nah, most people these days do know that wrestling is fake, mainly due to the internet. Only kids buy wrestling as real these days.

  • Precisely what I was saying. That is why I was estimating about 15% or so. Kids make up a large portion of today's audience.

  • I blame Mike Tyson's loss on Vince McMahon..

  • lol

  • What an annoying interviewer. Schmuck.

  • I respect Vince on the comments he made about Mike Tyson.

  • I kept waiting for Brisco and Patterson to rush out and administer a beat down on Costs. "Yes Mr. McMahon."

  • hahaha!

    "What're we gowna do mister MACK-MAYON?"

  • lmao, i was just about to bring that up. The "stooges" killed me with that shit..."Mack-Mayon"

  • Based on this very inaccurate prediction Vinces expertise is not boxing.

  • Yeah what is vince saying.... Muhammad Hassan debuted 3 years after 9/11... Hassan is one of the greatest heels of this era... self made... hassan made himself a heel...

  • opps didn't see the date this was made... hassan wasn't in the wwe in 2002 lol :p

  • That was fun. I couldn't help but feel sorry for Vince when he got struck with the pressing questions.

  • louis beat the fuck out of tyson

  • most people on here are american so they will hate on ur comment..im not going to hate on it though, im english, lennox is english, lennox won..yanks, get over it :D

  • mr mcmahon............yes sir :)

  • Wow how wrong was he bout tyson and lewis lol. Lets hope he didnt put as much on that one that he did on the XFL :P.

  • Vince is a lyer he started a terrorist angle with Muhammed hassan and Davari 3 years after this

  • One thing Vince said that he didn't know what the hell he was talking about was Mike Tyson beating Lewis in 3 rounds...ha!

  • yap and was pulled fast after.

  • violence to animals wtf hahaha

  • @mrskipper1234 I have seen a match been the Junkyard DOG and George THE ANIMAL Steele.

  • Wrestlemania 7 was suppose to draw 100k fan in LA. They move it across the street and only drew 16k fans. I really dont think they moved it because of terrorist. I think they moved it because couldnt fill the building

  • Vince is Vince,,,,it's just the way it is,,,,he's gonna try to work with you,,,but If it's gonna come down to buisness,,,Vince is gonna win,,,don't beleievee me ask Bret Hart....His company,,,,his disicsion,,,that's the way it is....Sports Entertainment,,,,Bret was on a TV show,,,the belt is fake dude,,,get over it!!!!

  • VINCE IS GOD!!!

  • Nope it was'nt Iron Shiek,,,,it was Nikoloi Volkolf who did all that stuff....they just got it wrong

  • What did he say in the end? It`s real with 2,5 percent?

  • That interviewer is nob..

  • 'welcome back mike' haha, doesn't know shit

  • what about mohammed hassan

  • he NEVER said anything abt 9/11.. it was the same as say a tiger ali singh saying how the americans were discriminatory.. by labelling someone who raises these genuine points as a terrorist angle is showing a george w bush mentality.."you're with us or against us"

  • that stuff about having to move the sheik match to an indoor venue is complete rubbish-they moved the venue because they had not sold enough tickets.

  • that's bullshit, wrestlemania always sells a lot, they'll probably sell over 100K for this year.

  • look do you honestly think vince would move an event to an arena holding 16,000 if they had sold 100,000 tickets? the "sniper" story is an excuse. Type in "wrestlemania VII ticket sales" into google. Either they hadnt sold any tickets or vince had to do about 84,000 refunds, hmmmmmm?......

  • Or he hadn't sold any tickets yet, you don't know how far ahead of time he had to do this.

    Yea, I'm going to believe what I read on the net, my sources come from the horses mouth, interviews with the source, or I read books from the source.

  • are you serious?-do you really believe vince is going to openly admit that they didnt sell enough tickets, he's a businessman trying to make his product look good, not a complete idiot. It's well documented they didnt sell enough tickets. He could have moved it to much larger indoor venues, why one which only holds 16,000? Major city like LA-could have picked from loads of arenas, face it the story is full of holes.

  • It really doesn't matter to me one way or another, because the only one who knows for sure is Vince, we can speculate all we want.

    This stuff is why I didn't read the Death of WCW because it was written by people who weren't involved, dunno where you got your info (and it might be true, but now I'm talking about wrestling in general), but when I look at stories, there are so many false "common knowledge" ideas of WCW for instance. People have been brain washed about why they failed.

  • WWE is a publicly traded company, therefore if requested they have to provide any information about the business. So, he probably won't addmit it on tv, but if requested by share or stakeholders WWE has to produce any information requested.

  • theyre just above 60K now for WM this year

  • 67,000 is hardly just above, they'll probably get close to 70,000, I was just guessing how many they'd get, maybe they didn't have the upper upper upper level seats available since you wouldn't be able to see anything.

    Either way, 60k, 70k, 80k, whatever, it's still more than probably 98% of events in any sport or entertainment.

  • what was the record for the citrus bowl?? something like 74,000? i dont remember

  • Well, I heard 67,000 a few weeks ago, so maybe they'll beat that.

  • Vince is smart. Hes a business man. A succesful business man. This means he is a dickhead at the end of the day.

  • mike tyson will destroy lennox, eh????

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAAHA

  • in his prime he would, everyone knows that

  • mcmahon is a smart he dont get fooled by some reporter like cena did

  • why? what happened to cena?

  • he got cought saying that he did steriods

  • he got cought saying that he did steriods

  • that was taken completely out of context tho. A small sampling of a much bigger statment saying he did not do steriods!

  • Actually WM VII was moved because of poor ticket sales. They tried to pump up biz by having Slaughter and Den. Adnan burn the American Flag when that leaked out they experienced alot of backlash they decided to burn a poster of Hogan and that led to death threats and the movement to LA sports arena.
