Hahaha. Oh man. I used to be convinced that it was all real. And even after I was a huge fun of the (former) WWF.

well I can kinda see it, as a former avid wrestling fan back in the 80s especially the entertainment value of wrestling was big in many homes an the wwe (formerly wwf) was a very popular medium and still to this day many watch it. Now I personally find Vince Mcmahon and some of his other "family" annoying and its probably why I dont really watch wrestling no more. But considering the walk of fame is basically a fan driven popularity honor Im not suprized by this.

I'm not surprised. Donald Trump has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Hell, Paris Hilton's getting a star, too, if she doesn't already have one.

Too bad I can't actually kill the bastard, myself. TT___TT

She doesn't have one. Be thankful for small favors.

Paris Hilton getting a star is the only thing worse then vince getting one.

The only person I can find an argument for being worse for this is Osama Bin Laden

Vince McMahon is an actual person..........He was the founder of the WWF and while he participates in the scripts of the shows, I can assure you he is a real person.

Plus the infamous "Montreal Screwjob" incident basically made Vince McMahon into the character he is now.

Yes, I know, it just seemed ridiculous to me how they gave him this whole elaborate "death", and then he gets a star on Hollywood. The whole wrestling thing in general is ridiculous to me, though, so..=P
