Vince McMahon is a fitness freak. Several former and current superstars have talked about how he spends almost all of his free time in the gym. At an age where most men put their feet up and enjoy the fruits of their labor, the WWE Chairman is still as committed to his body as he is to the promotion. While most fans have come to accept this, there are still some that are taken aback by how in shape he still is. Popular UFC commentator Joe Rogan is among the many that still has a hard time fathoming the physique Vince McMahon has maintained despite being as old as he is.

Rogan talked about Vince McMahon’s appearance at WrestleMania 38, where he fought former NFL punter Pat McAfee. The match, while short, is remembered for a number of reasons, such as Stone Cold making his way to the ring to deliver one of his patented Stunners on Vince and Vince hilariously botching the sell.
However, Rogan overlooked all of that and steered the conversation towards how amazing Vince McMahon looked.
Joe Rogan says Vince McMahon should be ‘dead,’ not ‘wrestling’ while talking about his physique
Rogan did not bite his tongue while speaking about the WWE Chairman. He was thrilled to see Vince in the shape that he was, but expressed it in his own style of humor, claiming that most 77-year-olds were dead and not pro-wrestling like him.
“Bro, he looks f***ing great for 77.” Rogan said on his Joe Rogan Experience podcast. “77, you’re supposed to be a dead man, you’re not supposed to be pro-wrestling. Yeah. Bro, he’s older than my mom.”
Vince McMahon went on to win the match against Pat McAfee with some help from Austin Theory. Their celebration was cut short after his former nemesis Stone Cold Steve Austin walked in and hit a stunner on everyone in the ring, including Pat McAfee, to a roaring audience who were happy to see their hero back where he always belonged.
Vince McMahon is back in the WWE
Vince McMahon announced his retirement from the WWE last year after several allegations of se*ual misconduct by different women. However, he has since returned to the company, using his controlling stockholder position and voting power to re-elect himself back to the board.
His return was met with Stephanie McMahon resigning from her position as the Co-CEO. It has been reported that Vince McMahon has promised not to interfere with the creative direction of the company. While he may make a suggestion, he will defer the final call to Triple H, who is still the Head of Creative in WWE.
There are also reports that the Executive Chairman may make his on-screen return at the Royal Rumble. However, it will likely be a separate segment rather than the Royal Rumble match itself.
