Vince McMahon is a 70-plus year old man booking a company largely watched by people who are officially either between one-quarter or one-half as old as he is. Contemplating the idea that he's possibly out of touch is okay. However, the moment when you believe yourself to be correct in your assertion is the moment that Vince McMahon becomes a victim. Vince McMahon is handling a lot these days, the opinions of his fans sometimes not as important as the opinions of his shareholders, Board of Directors, marketing department, global media team, and his financial bottom line. Note at no point were wrestlers, bookers or road agents even tossed into that mix, too. Vince "hating millenials" is kind of a misnomer in the sense that he doesn't so much hate millenials as much as he hates the fact that they're not even remotely aware of how difficult his job is these days as chairman of WWE. He's pleasing multiple people at multiple times in various ways that maybe won't put over Daniel Bryan or Cesaro, but also he's trying to keep his company financially solvent, too.
