Vincent Kennedy "Vince" McMahon (born August 24, 1945) is an American professional wrestling promoter, former commentator, announcer, film producer, actor, and retired professional wrestler. Since taking over the company from his father in the 1980s, McMahon has always worked in the corporate area of the WWE as well as behind the scenes. He currently serves as the majority owner, chairman, and CEO of the professional wrestling promotion.

McMahon has also occasionally competed as a professional wrestler using a gimmick known by the ring name Mr. McMahon, based on his real life persona. He is a two-time world champion, having won the WWF Championship in 1999 and ECW World Championship in 2007, and is the 1999 Royal Rumble winner. He headlined multiple pay-per-view events from 1999 to 2000 and participated in the main event of WrestleMania 2000, as a cornerman for The Rock. In singles competition, McMahon holds victories over former WWF/E Champions Ric Flair, The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels and Triple H. McMahon continues his backstage and on-screen roles as the main authority figure along with the rest of the McMahon family.

A third generation wrestling promoter (following in the footsteps of his grandfather Jess and father Vincent J.), he is married to former WWE CEO/SBA Administrator-designate Linda McMahon, with whom he has two children – son Shane and daughter Stephanie, is the father-in-law of WWE executive/wrestler Paul "Triple H" Lesveque, and has six grandchildren.
