WWE have once again won at the Promax/BDA Awards - the highest accolade for recognizing the best marketing/advertising methods, judged on creativity and production quality, (WWE is the king of production quality). WWE have won numerous awards at this ceremony before and thus this year Vince McMahon got the “Lifetime Achievement Award.”
It was held at the Grand Ballroom of Manhattan’s Hilton New York hotel and all the McMahon’s, including a heavily pregnant Stephanie were present. Upon winning Vince egotistically said “I deserve this.”
