Only few of us wrestling fans, it began on 1925, when the grandfather of WWE, Roderick McMahon began to promote some boxing matches in the city of New York. Meeting day of Roderick Mc Mohan and Josef declared as the birthday of modern wrestling. They founded the CWC (Capitol Wrestling Corporation), the corporation that will evolve to WWE in the modern days.

A great step was taken in 1953, when CWC joined the National Wrestling Alliance, which brought the business to a more legitimate level. Also in 1953, McMahon's son, Vincent took over his father, beginning the tradition of a McMahon being at the helm of the company. In 1956, CWC began to air wrestling matches.

1963 considered as the birth year of World Wide Wrestling Federation (WWWF) because CWC's wrestler Buddy Rogers won the NWA World Heavyweight Championship that year. By the rules of CWC he had to defend his title of to pay $25,000 and he chose to defend the title and lost the fight and the title both. CWC's heads got upset and decided to leave the NWA.

In late 60's, Mondt decided to retire and Vincent McMahon became the sole head of the WWWF and, also he was member of board of directors for the NWA. He organized several matches between NWA and WWWF champions. Most of them ended without any real winner determined.30 years ago, in 1979, the WWWF became WWF - World Wrestling Federation, and changed its owner to Vincent J. McMahon. In 1982, the ownership passes to his son, Vincent K. McMahon, who expanded it.

Vincent K. McMahon was the first McMahon that began selling the WWF TV Shows to TV stations and on VHS tapes all over the USA and abroad. He was the one to hire Hulk Hogan - an 80's wrestling and movie star to make WWF worldwide popular.

So, it was Vincent K. McMahon, who redefined both: the sport and the show, and he can be considered as the father of WWE. We can also say that it was Vincent K.McMahon, only who made possible to watch WWF on TV.
