I watched this segment and absolutely fucking loved it. I got to see Vince break character more than once. I can now die happy.

I saw it and loved it as well I think it should have been the whole hour instead of just 15 minutes.

Sounds cool. I hope it pops up on youtube. I'm betting what he said is true, about hsi dad wouldn't have sold him the company, but I'm sure glad he did.

Oh, he also mentioned how he had to make the decision to market it as a TV show, and entertainment, instead of as a sport. And he wanted to be honest, and not pretend it's real. He thought it's better to market it how it really is, and it helped them get more fans by not trying to trick people.
