Another article proving that this WWE contest Vince McMahon’s “Million Dollar Mania” sweepstakes is the real deal. A winner named Will Frank won $51,998 that was written on a real personal check, not from the actual WWE company, but a real personal check by Vince McMahon the man himself. Will Frank used the money to pay late bills for his home and used it to buy an expensive car. He usually never enters contests to win money but he only did this one ’cause he is a longtime fan of WWE.

Vince will never go broke doing this, the dude’s a billionaire. Vince is one of the richest men in the world and this is proving it.

Last Monday’s RAW where Vince debuted his “1 Million Dollar Mania” contest only got a 3.0. rating. Ouch!

My question is why does that blogger find it a surprise? I don’t find it a surprise at all.

Vince has turned Monday Night RAW into a game show. Wrestling fans don’t want that. Leave the Million Dollar giveaways to Howie Mandel.

Here are the results of last night’s RAW with McMahon’s “$1 Million Dollar Mania” proving that this is the real deal, the people answering Vince’s phonecalls on last night’s show weren’t hired actors, they were real people like us winning real money from Vince, it’s real, indeed:

Honestly, Vince doesn’t care about his fans or the wrestlers that perform the shows. He only cares about promoting his company…WWE, that’s it.

Fans at last night’s RAW were hating this “Million Dollar thing”, some of the audience were booing, chanting “Boring”, and chanting “We want Wrestling” everytime Vince came on stage to give out money to people sitting at home.

It kind of sucks for the people sitting in the arena witnessing Vince giving away money to people at home watching RAW.

This thing is gonna fail, just like Vince’s storyline where he fakes his death failed too.

Over 650,000 fans have registered to Vince McMahon’s $1 million dollar sweepstakes. This thing keeps making the national news proving that Vince McMahon is serious about giving away his own money to WWE fans. It’s not fake, it’s no storyline, this is surely the real deal folks. The $1 million really is coming from Vince McMahon’s own money. Lets hope he don’t give away all of his money so he won’t go broke, lol.

The sweepstakes begin this Monday June 9th.

Vince McMahon will do anything to promote WWE, even if it means giving out his own money to his own fans.

It is kind of cool though, it does pay to be a WWE devoted fan, I mean, you have to pay money to have cable TV to watch WWE, you have to buy PPV shows, and tickets to live shows, etc. So this is Vince’s way of giving the money back to the fans.

It shows that Vince actually cares for fans that support WWE. I’ve been a devoted WWE fan my entire life. I’ve always loved the wrestling business. I enjoy being part of the wrestling community.  We all know that wrestling is fake and scripted, we just watch it for the entertainment. And that’s what it’s all about! FOR FUN!!!

I would say that Mr. McMahon is the true King of “Controversy”, like him or not. To prove to the world that Vince McMahon is not kidding when he says he wants to give away $1 million dollars to fans each week on RAW, him and the WWE company proves it to the Associated Press that this is no joke!

Vince speaks to the Associated Press about more details about this. It will be a sweepstakes kind of thing. Something similar to prizes you win from soda bottles where you look under the cap there is a code, and you have to type it up on the website to see if you win. WWE plans on doing that same thing.

In the beggining of RAW each week, a code will be on the screen that the viewers will receive, they will first have to register to WWE.com in order to take part of this so you can give them your phone number for the WWE company to contact you if you win the $1 million. My guess is that the code randomly draws and if they match your code, you win. Kind of like the contests you win from soda beverages.

This is McMahon’s way of saying “Thanks” to the fans who supported WWE over the years and his way of using this as a promotional tool for WWE to bring in new fans and bring the old ones back.

Ummmm, no Mr. McMahon. This is not going to make the WWE popular again.

The way to make WWE popular and mainstream again is stop coming up with stupid storylines, bring back good wrestling, stop killing your own wrestlers with steroid use, stop making too much gimmicky charactersr in WWE, etc.

I’m not doing this contest ’cause I don’t want the WWE’s money. McMahon is an egomaniac in real life just like he is on TV.
