8 Real Contenders To Replace Vince McMahon As Head Of The WWE

1. Vince McMahon Will Be Around For Another Decade Yet

Despite reported concerns over his successor and the mixed positives / negatives of these contenders, there's a chance it won't become an issue for another decade at least. You can't help but get the feeling that Vince McMahon is just that kind of guy, obsessive about his business, living his life through his job. Retirement may never be on Vince's mind, his current role as Chairman and CEO could continue until his last day on earth. Yes, he will turn 70 next year, but as a billionaire he can afford everything he needs to stay healthy. He very well could be another Rupert Murdoch, working a full day well into his 80's as the cult like figurehead of his brand. McMahon's pride and work ethic will surely carry him further yet. CM Punk noted in January that Vince is usually up around 4am working. He has more vitality than most men in their primes. There have been some health concerns in the past, as well as a history of muscle surgeries and physical wear, but Vince looks healthier than most people his age. Personally, I wouldn't be totally shocked to see Vince around for years to come. Assuming he enjoys good health, why not? He has billions of dollars, but nothing can buy him the thrill he gets from his work. One thing McMahon may choose to do is stop travelling the road, instead opting to run WWE from the base of company headquarters in Connecticut with Paul Levesque (Triple H) assuming his backstage roles. Don't be completely surprised if ten years from now we are still talking about Vince McMahon as the boss of the WWE.
