I would suggest Harris Yulin, who among other thing played the judge in Ghostbusters 2 (and he's only 85 years old!) to play Vince but this is my serious answer:Pope Corky the IX posted:

I forget who it was, but one former WWE guy talked about how he went into Vince's office with some demand he wanted to make, and by the time they'd got done talking he'd not only not gotten what he wanted, but Vince had managed to convince him that he didn't really want it in the first place.

It's a different kind of charm for sure. Vince is like a carny version of Nixon, just absolutely repugnant and you can't look at him, but in person somehow he's got this one on one likability thing despite how loving disgusting he is. It's hypnotism or something. Dalton might be an rear end in a top hat, I don't know, but the camera loves him.

It's not uncommon with narcissists, like Steve Jobs' infamous Reality Distortion Field. There's a particular skill for being willing to say or do anything to make people believe and trust you and enjoy your company in person, without actually committing to anything or making any actionable promises.

There's more than one story from someone who got fired by WWE where they said "Oh, Vince loved me, we got along great, it was that drat Jim Ross/John Laurinatis/Bruce Prichard/etc. that fired me."

I mean i know of his weird behavior during meetings but is he consistently doing like 80 hours of real work a week way past the point when he’d need to?

Yeah, Vince forced his way back onto the board of WWE at 77 years old so he could micromanage their TV shows, sometimes making changes to the shows as they're airing. He only sleeps 4 hours a night and is supposedly the first person to the building and the last one to leave. Work is his entire life.

He sleeps like three to four hours a night at best and is working for the majority of his waking hours. He's never taken a vacation. He micromanages everything, and on top of all his wrestling work he's constantly tried to expand out into other businesses. He's like a goddamn machine that has it's off button broken.

Even in the 2010s the man was a workaholic beyond belief. He never rested on his laurels for a minute. He has a myriad of faults and that obsession is one of them.

Climbing into the ring and tearing his quad and somehow no selling it to continue in character is something like what, 5% of athletes could do? Even baseball players who take a pitch off the elbow need a minute before jogging to first.

Grendels Dad posted:Too bad he's poo poo at working, the stuff he micromanages is noticably worse for his influence. Well yeah. He's the very common kind of micromanager control freak that needs to have literally everything be His Work and have his mark on it regardless of whether it's any kind of improvement, and has to make sure nobody gets to succeed or accomplish anything in a way that he can't take credit for. Actual success is worthless if it's not his success, done his way. He even does the classic move of finally hiring someone to do x to shut up the people telling him he needs to delegate, and then makes sure they have no actual power or contribution by continuing to override or micromanage everything they do until they give up and become a yes-man or quit.

I am feeling a little uncomfortable with leaving it at "He's a really a hard worker" because of the positive connotations that description carries. Vince is a work-hoarder; around two thirds of the work he is doing could and should be left to other people.
