When do you think we will see him on tv again? We saw him almost every week from December 2015-April 2016.

I just read an interview and he says he hates being on TV. So probably not anytime soon.

To be honest, I don't need him on TV. He really can't do much nowadays. At his age there's no point in having him take a spear or an AA. So rather than use Evil Vince, use anyone else.

No doubt "Mr. McMahon" is one of the best characters that wrestling ever gave us, but we can't hang on to that forever. He's simply unable to do what he used to do...and that's okay.

There's no need. I'd rather have some authority figures that aren't bungholes for once. Smackdown is good with the hat, but Steph on Raw is booty, and unfortunately Foley isn't balancing her out well.

No one will ever top Vince as the evil boss. Steph tries and so does HHH but neither have the presence that Vince possesses.
I'm sure he will return when the ratings really drop and there are lots of guys I would like him to have segments with.

Vince is there every week through his surrogate Michael Cole. Take comfort in knowing that the hatred you feel for Cole every week is really hatred for Vince, so he's never truly gone.

When he trys and fails to recreate another Austin vs McMahon fued with Roman ... but he already did that last December. Remember? He gave Roman a title shot for saying he had shriveled up prunes. Ha, that lovable scamp.

The closest I think we've ever come to the Mr. McMahon character returning is his stuff with Punk. That was the last time we had a true anti-authority, anti-hero, character for McMahon to feed off of and he twiddled between pandering desperately to Punk to thinking he could kick his ass. It was fantastic.
In large though, Vince just isn't that guy anymore. I mean he'll always be Vince, but that bravado at 71 just largely isn't in him anymore imo, and you can tell when he's out there on TV. He also still does what he wants out there and his ability to verbalize his thoughts on the fly isn't what it once was...
So yeah, no disrespect to Vince, but we're just getting to a point where Triple H is far more suited to do just about anything over what Vince could potentially do, especially since Triple H is capable of having truly great matches with guys on the level of Rollins and Bryan. I actually prefer seeing Vince in non kayfabe moments now, like with Bryan's retirement. I think it adds meaning to those moments, and it's nice to be able to actually appreciate Vince at this stage of his life.
