>>20410756God bless Ted. For a long time he was the only man who kept wrestling alive
>>20410756Ted wasn't exposed as a bbc sissy cuck loving faggot and wasn't forced out of his own company for being a rapey, sharting degenerate. Vince is forever KWABOTY.
S.For enabling journo scum.
>>20410768He hasn't been in the public eye for years, I think he was probably in bad shape for a long time.
>>20410756I didnt realize he stole the mustache
OH N-
>>20410782what a LARPer
>>20410779BBC sissy cuck board, newfag
>>20410756R.I.P.This man (along with Hogan) saved professional wrestling in North America in the 90s
Watching these Billionaire Ted skits right now for old times sake:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7315B9MHEohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhZmf1pCihwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dl5UPPbmxqE
>>20410773NO CHANCENO CHANCE IN HELLYOU'VE GOTNO CHANCENO CHANCE IN HELL
>>20410789yup. the wwe rewrote history claiming it was muh attitude era. but it was the nWo era that kicked it all off
>>20410804It's very funny to see them make fun of Macho Man and Hogan for being old, but now their age then is the average age for WWE's main eventers.
>>20410756You were my perfect friendRight there until the endI'm forever missing youUntil we meet againCan't explain this painNever felt like thisTed Turner don't you knowThat you'll be truly missed
>>20410756Goodnight sweet prince.
>>20410777>George HackenschmidtThat man died in 1968...Why would their be a sticky?
MODS WHERES THE STICKY
>>20410756holy fuck i thought this guy died like 15 years ago
>>20410756Tony Khan is next
>>20410781I know he was sick with something. I know I could Google it, but I won't and I'll say it was something like Alzheimer's or something. Maybe Parkinson's. Can't remember. But yes, he was sick for a number of years.
>>20410804I'll always be a fan of Vince, but these skits were one of the rare times when he made it clear that he was being a scared bitch at the time. He clearly felt threatened as all hell in order to take the time and effort to make these
>>20410756BS he died years ago
>>20410756Vince will be shitting on an ugly bitch tonight in celebration! Hell yeah pal!
>Ted Turner: "Vince, I'm in the 'rasslin' business!">Vince McMahon: "That's nice, Ted. I'm in the sports entertainment business."fuckin' ethered Billionaire Ted with that one kwab
Vince is 80, Ted was 87. In order for Vince to win, he needs to live another 8 years.
>>20410768He retired from public life at least 20 years ago.
>>20410832Vince's mom made it past 100 years old. He'll be fine.
>>20410824I agree 100%. He got worked into a shoot.
>>20410785>indian doctors killed another onemany such cases. someone needs to take the leash off the pakis and let them nuke india until nothing remains.
>>20410824Vince never once made any blatant references or acknowledgement to GayEW or TNA on his show because they were never threats, but WCW was a different beast
>John Sterling>Ted TurnerWho will be the next 87-year-old sports figure? Gary Player bros...
>>20410756FOR DIXIE AND THE CONF- ACK!
Huh, I was just thinking about old Ted early today. Not even about wrestling, but tangentially related. I was curious what would happen to CNN with Paramount buying Warner Bros-Discovery. The new owner, David Ellison, is an arch-Zionist and Trump fan who literally bought Paramount because 60 Minutes was mildly critical towards Israel. And now one of the reasons Paramount will buy Warner Bros is to get control of CNN and make it more conservative. But I don't think that plan will work, Fox News is already pretty conservative and is the top viewed news channel on cable. I think Ellison will straight up shut down CNN instead (Their views aren't that good), and write-off to get rid of some of that massive debt their taking on to buy WBD. Ted Turner once said CNN will last until the end of the world, but I was wondering if he might outlive it. Turns out I was wrong. But I don't know how long CNN actually has.
unironically what did he mean by this
>Keeps wrestling on air despite everyone hating it because he liked watching Wrasslin' growing up>Keeps the premier timeslot throughout its entire lifespanTed is more important than that fag, Vince. Vince was only able to negotiate his deals because Turner kept his TV on and he pointed at that to say "L-look at what they're doing in Atlanta, we can do the same!" The moment Ted started winning Vince was crying like a bitch about how it's unfair that someone bought up the talent even though he did the same thing in the 80s. >>20410830Even this shows how much of a bitch Vince is. Ted is just telling him, "Hey isn't this cool we're in the wrestling business" and Vince immediately feels ego checked, because this is just a side project for Ted while it was Vince's whole life. Ted succeeded at doing what Vince wanted, in that he had an entire life outside of wrestling and a media conglomerate and could call the shots on what ran and didn't. All Vince's outside attempts failed miserably and he's just known as the gay carny wrestling guy. Ted won. Vince will die alone and miserable that he sold his family company for two months of power.
>>20410859Please go back to /pol/ nigga
>>20410836I'm amazed Vince has made it even this far. The guy juiced hard his whole entire life, was known for keeping a crazy schedule and sleeping only 2 or 3 hours at night, and took bumps in the ring that he really didn't need to. The guy really is a genetic anomaly.
>>20410824Ted Turner appeared on the front cover of Time, Vince later ordered a mock-up cover made with him on the front.
>>20410756How much did Biscoff steal from Ted?
>>20410756YOUVE GOT
>>20410813I like how even in this grainy pic you can tell vaders eyes are looking in different directions lol
>>20410869
>>20410836His mom didn't do steroids and coke. Women also live longer than men.
>>20410878The reality was the opposite of this.
>>20410878The irony of this vertical being a meme is that the little Jew lives in Don's head rent free throughout the episode and deliberately sabotages his work out of jealousy.
>>20410756Vince McMahon outlived Ted ffs
>>20410886His mom literally lived through the Great Depression as a poor girl though. So Vince can probably take a lot and still get to 90 at least.
>>20410895It helps that Ted was seven years older than him
Man, Vince is going to outlive all of the stars from the 80's WWF.Who else is there, just Ted Dibiase Sr?
>>20410756His Captain Planet stuff was absolutely demonic, and he is now in Hell. All that wealth, you can't take it with you.
>>20410914Paul Roma
>>20410895>outlived
>>20410887I mean it makes sense. Ted was running an entire media conglomerate, Vince had his silly little play fighting.
>In 2002, Turner accused Israel of terror: "The Palestinians are fighting with human suicide bombers, that's all they have. The Israelis ... they've got one of the most powerful military machines in the world. The Palestinians have nothing. So who are the terrorists?"Based.Rest In Peace, King.
>>20410914Some how Bob Backlund is still kicking it.
RIP Ted
>>20410914Sgt. Slaughter's still alive somehow
>>20410898We'll see. He's already outlived his father (69) and brother (77)
>>20410914Sgt. Slaughter is still around.
>>20410925Post hands
>>20410929Just barely, sadly he has dementia now and is being cared for by his sister
>>20410929Bob Backlund always seemed like he lived a pretty healthy lifestyle compared to other wrestlers from that era.
>>20410934Both Vince's Dad and Grandfather died younger than he already is. So Vince should be at least somewhat grateful that he seems to have inherited his mother's longevity.
>>20410940He just recorded a thing for WWE too: https://youtu.be/GzIc7hw7cOwSpeaking of Patterson, Gerald Briscoe is still around (he has his own podcast).
>>20410789>>20410807So why would it be Ted who saved wrestling then? Do you think he wrote the show? He said "hey, let's turn Hogan heel!" The nWo was Bischoff's brainchild, idiots. Ted would've been content running babyface Hogan forever.
>company CNN is attached to gets sold to Trump supporter>Trump is one of Vince's best friendsUnironically Vince won
postan b4 sticky
>>20410756>keep wrestling running despite what his executives hated it>made cartoon network F. Rest in peace you magnificent bastard
>>20410950Well he is the genetic jack hammer
>>20410955Turner provided the very platform for Hogan and Bischoff to do their thing, he deserves credit just as much as they did
>>20410756RIPpersonally i'm grateful for his conservationismhope his bison ranch keeps going
>>20410756I will find his killer.
He was a good old boy.RIP
>>20410955WCW wouldn't have existed at all without Turner, brainlet. There would be no NWO, no Hogan heel turn, no Monday night wars. Even if Ted was just the money man (which he was), that was a huge thing. And lit a fire under Vince's ass. Attitude era exists only because of Ted Turner too, while I'm listing things off.
wtf i thought he died in the 90s. RIP for sure wrestling would be better with him still involved.
>>20410972Holy fuck, I'm sitting here thanking for man for making an alternative wrestling show when I'm not even remembering the fact that he also gave us PRIME Cartoon Network (before it went to shit)That was definitely a huge fucking part of my childhood too
>>20410970Mods aren't gonna sticky
>>20410990I did see an interview with him like a decade ago but I was surprised to see he was still alive until now.He always looked old even when I was a kid.
>>20410859The plan is the BBCification of CNN as it just turns into state news. Fox will be the conservative and MSnow will stay as the dying embers of hippiest commies. But anyway Ted KWAB Vince number 1
>ted turner dies>vincels flood the thread and blab about their BBC-obsessed, exiled-from-his-own-company, fumbler-in-chief
>>20410914Dory Funk Jr is 85
>>20410914Jimmy Hart if he counts.
WWE won't do a tribute. Ted getting a bigger tribute than Vince will on his own show would make Vince eternal KWAB.
>>20410987the "hey guys i'm cheering for the popular thing now because i'm the counter culture now aren't i so edgy" faggots ruined /asp/ and this board is insufferable. it'd be like when the superman movie came out and /tv/ was 90% threads about it even though it was just a mediocre movie no one cared about. the wwejeets are fucking faggots and I don't even watch AEW.
>>20411006>vincels>sit is literally just bitchtits and his 20 vpns
Ted Turner being an ultra casual wrestling fan that would never have even thought about Vince as he was focused on movies at warner bros is really funny
>>20411018>>20411017case in pointplease kill yourself or find a second hobby besides being gay on the internet
ted turner didn't get finessed out of his company by his retarded children and a woman he tried to screw out of money he owed her for shitting on herted turner never got exposed for having a bbc dildo collection that he named after wrestlersted turner wasn't a degenerate that had a threesome with john laurinitisted turner won
>>20410878Ted lived 100% rent-free in Vince's head throughout the 90s and the latter decided to broadcast that fact on television to make sure everybody knew it. He also died with his dignity intact, unlike the BBC-loving scat fetishist.RIP you magnificent bastard.
>>20411022also funny how Vince hated wrestling and all he wanted to do was make movies
>>20411022>as he was focused on movieshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICnL_B39_bcGOAT
>>20411028But he’s dead and burning in hell with Larry the dog
>>20410804>>20410824>>20410837Ted thought the skits were hilarious and would have Bischoff record them all for him
>>20411028ok how you know
>>20411008Not an 80's WWF star
>>20411037big teds in heaven thanks to creating gods favorite channel (TBS superstation) and i didn't like larry but i don't think he is in hellhulk hogan though, is. and vince will be too when he dies.
Wasn't the reason WCW got fucked over was when he merged Turner with AOL, and he lost pretty much most of his corporate power?And everyone saw how much money WCW was losing, so they decided to sell it off.
>>20410878I like this meme because people that watched Mad Men and people that didn't always interpret it differently, no matter who is shooped onto it.
>>20411052>And everyone saw how much money WCW was losing, so they decided to sell it off.inb4 bischoff propaganda
>>20411052Tuner lost his power and got coup'd out of his own company because the other executives didn't like him making vanity projects that worked. Really Turner has just been a influencial figure with no real power since the 00's.
>>20411052Yes. WCW was absolutely hemorrhaging money, and viewership had fallen off a cliff. So they sold the whole thing to Vince for basically pennies. But it was in the low millions, i think the reports at time said Vince paid like 2.5 Milly for the whole thing. Which is an insane fucking deal.
>>20410918What was demonic about it? Wasn't it just about saving the environment and being kind to others?
>>20411073>Vince paid like 2.5 Milly for the whole thingno TV deal so it was just the video library and rejected alternatives for the 1999 logo rebrand
>>20411077It was about human sacrifice to nature. They literally aired a segment about how when you're old enough to have a family, you should only have one or two kids. The creator of the show had five kids, but he wanted to make sure his young viewers didn't reproduce too much.
>>20411073I'll always wondered how a wcw run by Chris Jericho would've been since he would purchased it in a heartbeat had he knew the price.
>>20411097There was no TV deal bub.
>>20410777> Super CrazyEvery fucking time lmao
>>20411078>no TV dealDoesn't matter. They could have released best off VHS/ DVD material, and coasted off merch too for years and easily made that back and then some. Even long before streaming, practically every promotion knew the value of the tape library rights. Even for it's time it was a frankly insane deal in Vince's favour
>>20410823>Can't remember.Anon, I...
>>20410756Rip goat
Imagine making Vince this assmad
>>20410756Trump from the top rope
R.I.P. WCW and Cartoon Network were amazing when I was a kid, and CNN at least was okay for a while.
Turner is responsible for the attitude era. Thanks, ted!
>>20411135You weren't even born yet, fag
>>20411129Promo's good
>>20411129HOLY SHIT, HOLY SHIT, HOLY SHIT
The Gingerbread Man was a bigger loss to the wrestling industry than Ted.
>>20411129Kek gotta love The TrumpeterYa just gotta!
>>20411151you don't mean that

RIP Billionaire Ted Amigo
>>20410777Add "AEW" to the List of the Dead. The cancelation killed them. And I just buried 'em >>20411159RIP Ted
>e-drones crashing out over Ted Turner in 2026they really will never forgive anyone they perceive as endangering their slopRIP King. You gave us WCW, the DCAU + Captain Planet.
>>20411151That goes without say
>>20410756RIPIt was a long battle against a worthy opponent
>>20411184>makes it all about AEWThe wrong man died today.
CAPTAIN PLANEThttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVzLzClY2E8PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT OR I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU
Ted made Vince great, therefore wrestling great. RIP
>>20411208Didn't he create Captain Planet just to fuck Jane Fonda?
>>20411208Captain Planet story is hilarious, it's great when you're so rich that you can do things like this to tell people to f themselves
>>20411192yepi would trade a billion e-drones for one more day with ted
>>20411129Based
>>20411129>muh great deals >muh woke Why can't this fag act normal even when morning his friends?
>>20411239Worked
>>20411239Ted was a great businessman, why wouldn’t you celebrate that in mourning him? Also good morning sir
Ted was everything Vince wanted to be seen as; rich, high-class, and respectable. It's why Vince hated him so much.
>>20411239His only real friend was the Epster
>>20411265Vince also had an inferiority complex over his southern origins, while here there was a pure southern man who was infinitely richer than him.
>>20411239>MorningGOOOOOOOOOD MOOOOOOOOOORNING SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR
>>20410756Tony on his way to book the Ted Turner memorial tournament, will it do a milly?
>>20411239SAAAAR
>>20410756F>>20411090>Captain Planet>Nature show>Demonic Human sacrifice is having 1 or 2 kids>Humans can't live without NatureWe need to start Human sacrificing you for a waste of oxygen and carbon
Rest in peace Ted. Will always be hilarious how obsessed with You Vince McMahon was, and just how little you acknowledge his existence
>>20411278
they should play this at his funeralhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XSMUDipC9I
>>20410816Would have cost them nothing to mail one.
does anybody have that comic where he cancelled swat kats cause he was having too many wet dreams about the secretary
itt e-drones tossing their moralfag cosplay away
>>20411151>>20411163the only thing WWE has done right since WCW doesn't mean ted turner sucked
RIP Ted. You were a good dude.
>>20411332
>>20411332why would anyone have that on purpose
>>20410756Wrestling is officially dead. Fuck WWmEme
>>20411274Ted was born in Ohio though.
Ted was everything Vince wished he was, at least will be remembered fondly by his peers while Vince's legacy will now be BBC memes and letting his prized possession get fucked by corporate vultures
>>20410813I will always love that the nasty boys were wearing some random nonsense when everybody else was in some form of formal attire.
Did Vince and Ted even have a friendship cause it seems to me he saw the WWE, said “hey that looks fun I should make my own” and just gave Eric Bischoff a billion dollars to do whatever.
>>20411357Maybe your just a gigantic faggot.
>>20411278>>20411306he is so endearing. i cant see how he makes anyone seethe
>>20410868Men like Vince keep on trucking out of pure spite and ego. Remarkable in some ways.
https://x.com/i/status/2052033856073506954
There are more people eulogizing Ted Turner on /pw/ than anywhere else on the web right now
>>20411361he moved to Savannah GA when he was a little kid and grew up there
>>20411379/pw/ is made up of broad-minded scholars who can fairly judge a man's place in history.
don't know how much Ted cared or did for wrestling but 90s WCW was an amazing achievement
reminder that ted turner watched AEW and in 2021 named tony khan/AEW the spiritual successors to WCW
Ted Turner was such a woke piece of shit he actually made people stop calling weapons foreign objects because it might hurt foreigners feelings.Fuck that bitch.
Sticky when?
>>20411362I do sometimes think how Vince must feel, looking from the outside in on his own creation getting raped mercilessly for every cent it can be. It must incredibly depressing. His lifes work, now just a ghoulish facade of what it once was.
Reading Ted's book as a wrestling fan is hilarious. So little about wrestling and even less about Vince, while Vince himself was absolutely OBSESSED with the Tedster
>>20411396>don't know how much Ted cared or did for wrestlingit's well known that WCW was only allowed to go on for as long as it did because Ted had a soft spot for wrasslanthough that said I feel like people try to make it sound too sentimental "oh he grew up on it," iirc it's mostly because stuff like JCP got him his best ratings early on when he started his television empire
>>20410878it's the other way around retard
>>20410823it was a mild form of alzheimers
>>20411421Ted's soft spot was more out of a loyalty for a show that did well propping up his fledgeling superstation than it was any actual enjoyment of the sport
>>20410878POV: you're living in the world Vince McMahon dreams about
>>20411018Project harder, you fat fuck. No 600k? No successful Hangma'am Page title reign?
>>20411418I think Vince or at least the company were aware of this because at some point after 1998, WCW is the one that tries to make references to WWF but the latter no-sells them.
>>20411449Still better than Christian
Really makes Eric Bischoff look like a fucking geek bitch. Bischoff would try to get Vince's attention, but mostly never got it. Vince would try to get Ted's attention, which he never got. That puts Eric Bischoff at the bottom of the fucking totem pole lol
TED: I'M IN THE WRASSLIN' BIZZNESSVINCE: I SHIT ON WHORRRRRES
>>20411369possibilities aren't always truths but anyone who likes WWE right now is truly a fuckin nigger loving homo
>>20410773That's true. Ted will be remembered as a visionary that changed the entire television industry, while Lupton will go down as a head-shitting footnote.
THANK YOU TEDTHANK YOU TEDTHANK YOU TED
Without Ted Turner, there literally wouldn't have been a Monday Night War
This takes Vince off KWABOTY unless he dies too
>>20411467this but unironically
RIP to the greatest man who ever lived.
>>20411478the kwaboty of the year is the wwe roster for taking pay cuts to listen to "yeet"
>>20411480I wasn’t being ironic
>>20410756No sticky is ridiculous.
>>20411353wtf lol
Vince always wins.
>>20411129>>20411149Hell of an athlete. Hell of a performer. Promo's good.
>>20410920>Doesn't know EnglishGood morning saar
>>20410912Vince has a much less stressful life I suppose
>>20411422watch the show
If Aol Time Warner never happened and the Monday might wars just never ended who would have eventually replaced bichoff and russo as bookers for wcw in the 2000?
>>20410933I like Slaughter. The definition of "Good hand". I'm legit surprised he's an ex WWE champ 2bh. Very dependable in the Midcard but his main event run was a short lived fever dream. Always a good time when Sarge turns up
hey you stupid fucking mods can you stop being a helicopter parent to the disabled for one fucking second and make this a sticky, god damn you
>>20411538disco inferno
>>20411458The only thing that stopped Vince from appearing on WCW to fight Eric after being called out was Stephanie's college graduation
RIPhe'll at least get a sticky on /tv/ right?
jane fonda was and still is actually a hell of a lot hotter than linda mcmahon ever was
>>20411557Vince would have heemed him
>>20411538Me
>>20411558Ted's a heel on /tv/, colorized Casablanca, It's a Wonderful life and Maltese Falcon.
>>20411538Honest answer: Probably Sullivan and or Nash
he prevented the American Bison from going extinct. the only person ever involved with pro wrestling to actually do any good for the world outside of it.
>>20411538johnny ace and bret hart
>>20411583yet they'll watch color movies like Star Wars. hypocrites.
>>20411192I literally never mentioned AEW thanks for proving me right though.>>20411538Johnny Ace headed the committee after they both left in late 2000
>>20411583How hokey were the color jobs?
>>20410756dude vanished to some ranch for 25 years after the merger made it to 87 and was a billionairewould have gave him KWABOTY back in 2001 for getting fucked out of his company but sounds like he lived a good life in the end.
>>20411587Okada runs a charity to help kids with cancer
the GOAT Ted spent 10 years inside Barbarella. vincetty can get only get hard by defecating on underlings
>>20411595Not too good
>>20411599ok well i didn't know that. that's good.
>>20411599so no cure, just 6 figure salaries for the organizers?
>>20411583He also funded the much-pilloried "Gods and Generals" where he cast himself as a Confederate officer for which he was 30 years too senior for the part. "Gettysburg" was good tho.
>>20411603Jesus
>>20410768It’s the madoobla effect! Ya got mandoobled!
>>20411603yeah that's bad. never seen that. they still sell It's a Wonderful Life as a 2 disc DVD including the original Black and White and the colorized version and the colorized version is atrocious. I can't stand to look at. sadly that's the version that is up on a lot of the streaming sites
>>20411599What a faggot
>>20411583>le black and white is le good!Cm punk levels of hipster faggotism. Color makes everything better just ask Nash
>>20411640how often did Nash get color?
The WCW image ABC News used during their Ted Turner segment.
>>2041164892 times
Its understated how important Ted Turner is to wrestling. He single handedly kept wrestling alive during a period where everyone hated it, just because it was his autistic hyperfixation.Absolutely based.
>>20411654big guys still draw
>>20411634Monitor on. BITCH>>20411610Do you believe there is a cure for cancer being hidden behind a paywall?

>>20410756He was the only one keeping AEW on WB lol Tony is fucked.
>>20411657pretty much all true but kid me loved the WWF in 1992 and 1993. i know its cool for people to shit on those years now but i still love watching early to mid 90s WWF and WCW. probably my favorite era of wrestling
>Uses his riches to air his fave cartoons and wrestlingPretty based
>>20411673nah you are>>20411678dumbest fanbase on the planet>>20411657He kept it alive because it kept his network alive and he believed in loyalty
Ted Turner:>Was not molested by his mom>Got to fuck BarbarellaVince McMahon>Was molested by his mom>Had to fuck busted looking Linda and Shawn MichaelsKWAB
>Pro Wrestling can be thankful that Ted Turner has always liked the sport. If not, the only alternative would be the WWF.
>>20410756More like Dead Turner
>>20411684Nobody wants to fuck Hanoi Jane
>>20411681it's shoot insane how there's no sticky on /pw/ or /co/ I don't think zoomies understand how important this autistic hillbilly is to their favorite pasttimes
>>20411629It was the root of much boomer seethe in the '80s because the only versions that were televised were the colorized ones. Ted bought his redemption arc though with TCM
>>20411698Yeah and no one wants to get molested by their mom either but that didn’t save Vince
Tony will have a 10 bell salute for Turner. Meanwhile, Paul will do a 5 second in memoriam picture before smackdown.
>>20411703Don't lie to me. I would absolutely go to town on her today.
>>20411701Boomers don't even remember even though they just spent the entire '90s flipping between Braves games and CNN
>>20411710Everyone is allowed to grieve in their own way
>>20411710This isn't fair, aew only has a few hours to get a bell, but WWE has only 48 hours to take a picture of Ted Turner and make it black and white and then put some numbers next to it
>>20411710Well WWE owns wcw so they will at least do a mini video for ted
RIP Ted Turner and his incredible “Known For” Wikipedia section
>>20411683Your allies keep either dying or getting bought by people who will most likely cancel your show. It must suck, doesn't it? Better get those "YouTube is the better platform" copium files ready
RIP Ted Turner, the only wrestling owner in human history who didn't book himself to win the belt
>>20411064>A...actually Turner executives were big meanie heads who hated wrestling for absolutely no reason. They also took loses from other departments to make it look like I was wasting money like a retard. P..please believe me.
vax status?
>>20411687Did he ever show up in person to any wcw events?
Vince McMahon has spent every day of the past 35 years trying to explode Ted Turner with his brain, Ted hasn't thought about Vince since he called him about buying WCW.
>>20411783yes, in 1994
>>20411739That is wild. Truly, what a life.
Vince McMahon was jealous of Ted Turner because Turner was everything that McMahon wanted to be. A massive media mogul.
>>20411739it all makes sense why vince was so obsessed with ted, look at all that ted accomplished and wcw doesn't even come in the top 10 hell even top 15 of things
My respect for Vince can't get any lower
>>20411710Hunter will do a sponsored tribute video mid show that has PIP ads
Ted and Vince should’ve been battling each other for eternity
>>20411827can you fucking stay on twitter if it's so fascinating you gay fag
>>20411839
>>20411827>random twitter fag postingYour a gay faggot anon
>>20411832Does Vince McMahon have a personal vendetta against World Championship Wrestling, Turner Broadcasting, Turner Sports and all things pertaining to Ted Turner and his vast media empire?
>>20410785He would fall for that scam.
>>20411832In Vince's head, they were rivals. In Ted's head his rival was Rupert Murdoch.
>>20410756RIP, thank you for the wrestling and memories you made possible
>>20411861True
>>20410818They aren't gonna sticky
>>20411106For me its Lulu Pencil
>>20411129Turner wasn't "woke"? He married fucking Jane Fonda.
next week we'll find out vince crashed his car earlier today
>no mod stickygotta find more usernames to ban instead of being useful>>20411847post wwe tweets and i'll say the same thing fuckface, go back to your twitter and tweet it up your twat you twitalso god damned ted turner dies and you're still droning on and on about vince, wtf you obsessive autist
surprised vince hasn't tweeted out a statement since he loves to tie himself to ted to make himself seem more important
>>20411880He was liberal, not woke. He was comfortable being around right wing people and didn't think they were evil. He gave Pat Buchanan (albeit with a left wing talking head) a half hour on CNN nightly.
>>20410756Goodbye Atlanta's rose
>>20410813what a dimeless picture, orndorff, flair and michael hayes are the only main event guys in that picture
>>20411775Billy Corgan's won the NWA title?
>>20411893those whores ain't gonna shit on their own heads
>>20410768He hasn't been around for a while, probably just shilling with his infinite shekels.
>>20411913Austin behind Paul Roma.
>>20411861Yeah, wrestling for Ted was essentially a line on a spreadsheet.
>>20411362Pretty much this. Vince might have won the war for wrestling, but when Vince dies everybody will just shit on him. He lived long enough to be a total embarrassment if anything else.
>>20411930yeah, barely i still wonder if thats even him. might be scott norton. but still what a terrible representation of wrestlers in the early 90s
>>20411684fucking the woman whom even her family hates her for the nickname hanoi jane itself is worse than rot at a state prison
>>20411710Anyone have that .webm of Tony knocking over that picture of Antonio Anoki. Could you please post it.
>>20412034it's been a hard year for Jane. first losing Robert Redford and now Ted
>>20411129The man knows how to cut a promo
>>20411389
>>20410756lol
Vince McMahon laughing like a lunatic somewhere...
>>20411827Was his step dad a hick? Might explain it, especially since Vince Sr was synonymous with NYC at one point
>>20411739Why didn't the Falcons come out?
>>20412139Vince grew up in a trailer park with his mother who molested him. Not joking.
>>20412139>>20412210yeah leo lupton was most likely a redneck hillbilly. and he beat and abused the fuck outta poor little vinnie jr. which explains vince's deep-seated and deep-rooted hatred and animosity towards southerners and all things to do with the south. you know we never did see a pic of Leo Lupton. what if he looked like Ted Turner?
new>>20412267>>20412267>>20412267
>>20410824to be fair, bischoff started it by spoiling raw
>>20410756RIP
>>20410830I honestly believe Ted just wanted to be pals with Vince but Vince took Ted getting into wrestling as a threat.
>>20410925Rest in peace
RIP GoAT
>>20411538Nash
Fuck the mods. Piggalos the lot of them.
RIP>>20411739Genuinely doesn't even cover it all. The structures that he established for American culture in the 80s/90s is so profound. Ted's one of the dudes that is THE American to me. Makes his money, spends his money on a bunch of ventures that are somewhat successful or really impactful. One of the most clear-cut capitalists.
Why has this not been stickiedTed Turner was a huge person in wrestling history The Monday night wars would not have been a thing without him.
>>20410756
Rest in peace Ted
>>20410756Vince never lived a day in Ted's head once in his life. To rich and detached from the common man.
>>20410777>Harley Quinn CornetteKek
ripfuck you mods for being the opposite of good
