>>12757430Vince took out loans and used business connections from his wife Linda to get enough money to offer Sr., and even then he still had to go on a payment plan for the rest. I talk about it here
>>12757151And no, Vince wasn't an executive at WWWF under his father. He never got the sweetheart deal that Vince would give to Steph.
But again, we can argue about how hard Vince had it, but this argument started by pointing out how different Vince and Tony's stories were that got them to where they are now. And I've already proven that. Tony grew up with a silver spoon surrounded by loving family, while Vince grew up in a trailer park with his mom and her abusive bf. Tony was given everything he ever got from his dad. Vince had to work for it in lowly positions for years to prove himself, and even then he has to buy WWWF by taking out loans and risking everything, while Tony's dad just gifted him wealth for AEW.
Their origin stories couldn't be more different, despite the similarities in how they ended up.
