The number one pick wouldnt surprise anyone, as it is the one person who has arguably changed the landscape of professional wrestling single handedly. Vince McMahon Jr. went against the traditional values, and globalized his promotion. Vince Hulk Hogan duo changed the wrestling business, and in the end made the industry what it is today. People often talk about the need of evolving, a process which is applicable to all forms of life. There is perhaps no better example for Darwinism in professional wrestling than the man who was responsible for the business to have transcended from a mere art of grappling into an alternative form of entertainment. When Vince McMahon Jr. first came up with the idea of getting into sports entertainment business, a lot of old school promoters despised him, and it was seen as a death blow to professional wrestling industry. With Vince McMahons ideas and immaculate execution, WWE soon thwarted other organizations to become the undisputed global leader in sports entertainment. Vince McMahon is also seen as a ruthless businessman who gets the job done at any cost an example of that being the infamous double crossing of Bret Hart, which has since become infamous as the Montreal Screwjob. One doesnt have to like Vince McMahon or agree with his decisions, but there is no denying the fact that the wrestling business wouldnt have come such a long way if it wasnt for Vince McMahon. When all is said and done, Vince McMahon Jr. will be hailed as a pioneer, and a true visionary in the world of professional wrestling.
