10 Reasons Vince McMahon Needs To Retire By Year’s End

9. Under His Leadership, WWE Is No Longer A Job Creator

Back when Vince€™s wife Linda was running for public office, one of her platform goals was to emphasize job creation. If elected, Linda would work hard to help lower unemployment in her state, which, unfortunately has increased since Vince began increasing layoffs. Many people have been released by WWE over the last few years, but in 2014 a staggering 12 Superstars, including Evan Bourne, Drew McIntyre, Teddy Long and JTG, were released in June. A short while later, longtime employee Mark Yeaton was released after spending 30 years with the company. That last termination was especially poignant because it indicated that not even the most tenured, longest-serving employees is safe from the axe. While these firings can be attributed to budget cuts and low WWE Network numbers, in the end, those decisions were made by Vince himself firing people as soon as their usefulness to him expired. On the other hand, although these releases could be justified due to the sheer number of Superstars, that too can be blamed on Vince, who hired more wrestlers than he needed, only for them to be barely used (JTG), or on the shelf (Bourne). If Vince can€™t manage his own roster in the right way, maybe he shouldn€™t be managing the company at all.
