I loved the shoot interview that Triple H did, I think with Opie and Anthony, about the Katie Vick angle. They shot that in a funeral home, in the one room they booked - so a funeral is going on next door. Triple H is trying to be reasonably quiet while humping this corpse, and then Vince is shouting LOUDER DAMMIT, so Triple H goes louder and someone comes and knocks and asks them to keep it down and be respectful, Vince is hugely apologetic, before going back to LOUDER DAMMIT. Vince missed his true calling in life...porn director

It's funny that Vince is legitimately more nuts and awesome than most of the guys who get dropped on their heads for a living.

- I remember reading one Vince story about how Vince's favorite movie was There's Something About Mary and the creative team knew this and would steal jokes from that movie when pitching ideas to Vince which were hilarious. Later on, someone tried pitching an idea and threw in a joke from the movie Vince didn't laugh, and told them if they were going to steal jokes they needed to steal jokes from Old Dogs, The creative team then realised that Vince had a new favorite movie.
- a Kaval story where Vince told the NXT rookies they were going to make out with Michelle McCool in the ring and 'Taker acted pissed off and angry throwing things around. When the time came, it was a big fat chick who appeared and when the rookies went backstage 'Taker and Vince were there laughing.
- he once bought R-truth to a board meeting so he could dance for the shareholders.
- Bret Hart pitching ideas to Vince that he wrote down. Months later, Vince calls Brett and pitches the idea to him thinking he came with them on his own.

The story he told on Austin's podcast about pushing wrestling writers into the swimming pool at his house, then finally gaining respect for Shane when he pushed Vince into the pool.

I just heard someone shoot that the ultimate payoff with the WBF was for Luger to come in second, turn heel, then take it out on Vince and The E. What a glorious waste of time!

- Pitching a storyline where he was the father of Stephanie's first child. This isn't the first time Vince tried to pitch an incest angle; remember Beaver Cleavage, Ken and Ryan Shamrock, and Paul Burchill and Katie Lea, with the first two happening during the Russo-Ferrara era?

While still very gross, still...they weren't his daughter.

Doesn't he have a mounted T-Rex head over his desk in his office?
Also, he crowed like a rooster to show Terry Taylor how it's done, demanded Konnan dance while he was in the Max Moon suit, and taught Kelly Kelly her exhibitionist dance routine
How anyone can hate the man is beyond me.

Snitsky on the baby punting angle:"I don't remember exactly who came up with it, but I remember rehearsing it with everybody involved and Vince was very adamant on me kicking the baby doll, and he's like "You better not f--- it up". And I was like "Don't worry Vince, I'm not gonna f--- it up, I was an all-area punter on my football team in high school. I ain't gonna f--- it up, trust me". So after we did it and it came off so good, I remember coming back through the curtain and he gave me a standing ovation."

Festus told a story on AOW of Vince repeatedly trying to get him to do the Festus "face" right. "No, no, no, like this!!".
Gotta check out his episode to get the proper story off Festus himself.

I know this isn't about Vince, but it's my favorite Festus story. Back when BLG was in SES with Punk, they went to visit Zack Ryder's dad with Zack. And Ryder's dad, either drunk or just amazing, grabbed a replica ring bell he had and rang it in BLG's face to see if he would snap, ala Festus.

Speaking of Katie Vick, wasn't it reported that it was Vince's attempt at black comedy a la The X-Files, Six Feet Under, and CSI? It was also said that it was Kevin Dunn's brainchild?

I have no idea how many of these stories are actually true and I don't care. Amazing thread.

Triple H is trying to be reasonably quiet while humping this corpse The fact that this is a sentence that was typed is amazing in its own right. And that is why I love this great sport.
