>Wrestlemania was only created to compete with Starrcade, which started a full two years earlier. Crockett did the first wrestling PPV supershow. >Royal Rumble was created in response to Bunkhouse Stampede. The Bunkhouse battle royales had weapons, that was the only difference.>Got nearly all his big drawing stars in the 80's by plundering talent from NWA promotions or the AWA.>Survivor Series was a ripoff of Wargames, plain and simple. Of course, they removed the cage because Vince is scared of blood>Only defeated WCW by copying ECW and getting way edgierBasically, vince got big by copying other people's ideas, taking out the kino violence, and putting more money behind those ideas than anyone else could. If Crockett, Gagne or even Heyman had the resources and backing that he had, Vince wouldn't have lasted this long. He's a skillful businessman but he's also creatively bankrupt and has a fetish for humiliating and degrading others.
