At 72-years-old, the man once known as ‘The Genetic Jackhammer’ has progressed from an in-ring announced for All-Star Wrestling in 1969, to leading a world-renowned company valued at over $2.5bn (£1.78bn). At 21-years-old, Vince married Linda McMahon, née Edwards on August 26, 1966 having met originally when Linda was just 13 and Vince 16.
Linda was an integral figure in the growth of WWE throughout the 1980s, right the way until 2009 when she decided to concentrate on her political career.
After failed attempts to run for a seat in the Senate as a Republican, Linda was voted in as Administrator of the Small Business Administration under Donald Trump in February 2017.

Vince has handed over some of the operations of WWE to his son-in-law Triple H but still remains in charge and with the final say on all major decisions.
