Did we ever get an explanation about that stupid helmet/mask thing?

Had Vince ever had facial hair before this year? I don’t even remember him allowing stubble on his face.

I've never seen Vince with a mustache or a goatee or a beard. Dude's been clean shaven since he started being on TV in the 80's.

Vince has been using galvanic electrolysis since the mid-80s. it had been around forever but started getting popular (again) back then. it's why you never saw him with even a hint of stubble even at the end of a show. he was at the save mart center for 12 hours during the 2005 royal rumble, came out onto the show at the end, and looked like he had just shaved. the reason he does that tight to the lip mustache is not just because of the look he intended but because his growth above that is too awful from the past treatments. if you find out it's made up, don't stop being my friend

FWIW, I showed the pic of Vince to my sister's father in law who's a maxillofacial surgeon and he thought he's covering up a bad lip job. It could explain why the moustache is so close to the superior vermilion border instead of looking normal.

Just my 2¢ anyway

So people would make fun of his lovely Vincent Price look instead of going "why the gently caress is this serial rapist coming back."

And it worked.

I don't know, if you try to make jokes about the rape stuff then most people seem to get tired of it and just want daddy Vince back. Now he's got the moustache you can just openly make fun of him and the fed stans will go along with it, like a spoonful of sugar.

Nobody cares about pro wrestling, which is why they get away with treating their independent contractors as employees. Not to mention everything else Vince is responsible for since taking over the industry. Nobody has ever made one single stink about WWE being a monopoly for so long.

people have been joking about when Stardust comes back but it'll really be a return to Cody's gimmick of "I have a moustache" that was brief but in the correct time window to be his representation in one of the games

I don't think wrestling journalists needed to be distracted to not talk about Vince and his crimes. They didn't do it when he didn't have the stache either.

Total fuckin' silence.
The lip job explanation is much more convincing to me tbh. Vince's particular breed of super rich rear end in a top hat is extremely self-conscious as they get older, especially since the dodgy cosmetic surgery they got done in the 80s starts withering away. I believe this is why Trump is very touchy about his hair?

Did RAW have something cool advertised or happen this week, does anyone know? It did the highest rating since Mania by a good margin.

Increases in both overall audience and demo rating, to the tune of “best since the Raw After WrestleMania” numbers. Monday’s Raw averaged nearly two million viewers viewers per hour (1.97 to be exact). It did a .61 rating with 18-49 year olds, the best on all of television —not counting the baseball game, which was watched by 3.43 million and had a .85 with the 18-49 set.
