Most endering crazy Vince story

[Tony Schiavontay]

Not endearing and in fact makes him sound like a real asshole but still a story that's always made me laugh. Rick Bogner aka Fake Razor's contract was coming up and, seeing that fake Diesel had just been resigned to be repackaged as Kane, he called Vince to ask him about it. Vince cut him off during his greeting to say, "Rick, please don't call this number ever again" before hanging up.

The sneezing thing is another that I know he hates them but I have not seen the full story if someone could please elaborate

Vince McMahon? More like Vince McMAN. Because he is The Man. Geddit.

Wondering why he was being so harsh to Titus, then reading the interview with Davis Shoemaker where he said Daniel Bryan was Vince's favorite wrestler, understanding why he was so emotional.

There was a sad moment in the Punk/Cena feud when Cena walks out of the ring and Vince goes 'leave just like the rest, they all left me' seemed quite real to me.

I...Wh...I....

If this is true, why did Vince handle the push of Bryan so weirdly!? Unless it really WAS some crazy, elaborate, insane Vince McMahon plan all along. I just...dude was more over than anybody, selling merch, having great matches, AND was Vince's favourite!? And you're telling me Vince, despite Bryan being his favourite, didn't see as much money in him, despite the ridiculous fan support? But sees money in Reigns despite him being a totally different (and worse) worker and getting awful reception?

Something does not compute. Just...What. That just doesn't add up.

He might think Bryan is awesome, but didn't think his best position will be on the top of the card. Vince may love the new Day, but doesn't think it will be in their best interest for them to main event.

Firing Boris Zhukov and forgetting to tell him, making Zhukov stay on the road for two more weeks without being booked in a single match.

Hey if he got paid for those two weeks...not a bad deal.

Because despite what people like to accuse him of, he doesn't book for himself.

If Vince booked for himself we'd have 20 time world champ R Truth headlining Mania for the 6th year in a row

The WWE was putting together a horror movie starring Kane called "See No Evil". Vince said he had this great idea for the film, and proceeded to pitch it to the writers and the director. His idea was that there would be a moment in the movie where Kane's pants would rip and his 4 foot long veiny monster penis would flop out and hit the floor.

The scene never made it into the movie

Don't think there's one specific story but I remember Heyman on Jericho's podcast talking about he was pitching an idea to Vince, and Vince was loving it. All of a sudden Vince let out a sneeze and started muttering to himself about he couldn't control himself. Heyman couldn't get the rest of the idea latched onto Vince because Vince was so distracted with himself for sneezing.

It’s fairly well known that McMahon hates sneezing. It’s assumed that it’s the involuntary nature of a sneeze… there’s no controlling it, and anything Vince can’t control, he despises. He’s been known to cut promos on a sneeze, ranting and raving about it, seeing it as a sign of weakness and showing incredible frustration with himself.
There’s actually a well-known condition whereby one can experience these kinds of negative emotions based on fairly ordinary noises like sneezing, coughing, chewing gum, sniffing, whistling – even laughing. It’s called misophonia, and it’s still being investigated today: the jury’s out as to whether it constitutes a brain disorder or simply a mental conditioning issue.

[lionelp]

One thing that McMahon doesn’t have a problem with is farting… far from it, in fact. CM Punk’s told the story of having to share a room with Undertaker, JBL, Edge and Vince when the company was performing at a Tribute To The Troops special in Iraq. Insomniac at the best of times, crammed onto a bunkbed above a snoring JBL in the spectacular bedroom of one of Saddam’s old palaces, Punk was reflecting on his strange life choices when he heard someone let one rip… followed by a distinctive, deep hurr hurr hurr laugh as the boss giggled at his own emissions.
That kind of explains poor Natalya’s horrendous farting gimmick. And of course, Jim Ross tells the story of McMahon trying to upset Gerald Brisco’s notoriously tender stomach by letting off toxic farts in the Gorilla position… and ending up accidentally following through mere seconds before he was due to walk out in front of thousands of fans. There’s no word on whether that’s the origin of Vince’s famous power walk to the ring, sadly.

Vince's walk is Buddy Rogers walk. Someone, I forget who, called him out on it and he simply said, "I didn't think anyone would notice".

I heard it was from his favorite wrestler as a kid. Dr Jerry Graham

[Rumble McSkirmish]

So if Vince ever farted and sneezed at the same time would that break his brain for good?

Not really a story but I do like the behind the scenes footage from Wrestlemania last year where they're practising Triple H's entrance and Vince asks if it's safe. Then he goes "Well I've got grandkids out of him so f*** him." It was something like that.

I laughed so hard when I saw this. I would love to share a beer with Vince.

Yeah and what makes it funnier in a sad way is the fact that Vince only remembered after Boris went to his office and asked him why he wasn't working at the behest of Bret Hart after Boris had voiced his concern to him. Who knows how long he would've stayed on the road if he had never said anything. If he was still getting paid I would be pissed at Bret if I was him. Boris Zhukov still could've been on the payroll to this day lol.

I also liked Todd Pettingill's story of Vince hiring him while they were sitting in neighboring toilet stalls.

Mae Young I believe. She said 'Vince, Buddy Rogers is dead" and he said, "I didn't think anyone would recognize it".

[The Sam]

In Heenan's first book, he tells a story about Linda telling Brain that every year Vince donates his entire wardrobe to homeless shelters. So if you ever see a bum wearing a bright blue blazer with matching cherry red tie, you don't have to guess where he got that from.

He also told a story about being on a plane with Vince and some of the other agents. Vince didn't like where he was sitting and so he made all the agents swap seats saying "Patterson you sit there, Lanza you sit there" until Heenan said to the stewardess "you better tell the pilot to take off before Vince wants to swap seats with him".

And in one of Cornettes shoots, he told a story about how Vince is a platinum member of one of the rental car companies. Which allows him to park his car wherever he wants and they have to come and pick it up. One day, they were running late for the plane so Cornette had to drive Vince, Patterson and Prichard to the airport. They drove up to the entrance and left the car on the sidewalk and ran to their plane. They just made it and as the plane was taking off Cornette reached into his pocket as a look of panic ran across his face. Vince asked "what's the matter?". Cornette pulled the rental car keys out of his pocket which had McMahons name on them. Vince said "it's ok, they'll get the car back, you keep 'em." And so Cornette had a set of keys with McMahons name embedded on them.

I love the one about him challenging creative team members to drag racing on the mean streets of Stamford
