While we rarely get a full, superstar entrance from The Boss these days, there was a time when this was a common occurrence. Vince McMahon may have been close to his father for the majority of his life, but early on, Vince had no relationship at all with his biological father. In fact, he was 12 years old before he ever actually met Vince Sr.
Vince was born in the rural, Moore County town of Pinehurst, North Carolina. That area would be his home while he was growing up, but as we all know now, Mr. McMahon was destined for bigger and better things and a small North Carolina township would not be capable of containing Vince, nor his ego.
Along with his executive duties, McMahon has also spent a lot of time in the ring, competing in high-level feuds with some of the top names of all-time. During the Attitude Era, Vince spent a ton of time inside the squared-circle and despite his humble North Carolina upbringing, Vince was normally announced to be from one of America’s wealthiest towns, which is Greenwich, Connecticut.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
