WWE: 12 Brilliant Moments Of Vengeance On Vince McMahon

When WWE stars bite back at Mr McMahon, the results are always epic.

Everyone hates a mean boss: no matter what the job is, or what rulings need to be put into place, when bosses say or do something that the working class doesn't approve of, everybody reacts negatively towards them. In reality, there's not much that can be done about it, but inevitably in our minds, fantasies play out where revenge is delivered to the boss in a variety of ways. There's just something about watching an authority figure get his or her comeuppance that feels so satisfying to watch. Vince McMahon, the Chairman and CEO of WWE, has been representing the archetype of the "evil boss" in professional wrestling for many years, and the rap sheet of the various nefarious deeds ranging from annoying to downright evil is miles long and growing. Of course, the man performing these acts is simply Vince's character "Mr. McMahon," but that doesn't help soften that feeling of bile in the pit of our stomachs whenever we see his face on television. We know he's a billionaire, we know he likes to show off his fancy living, and we know that he's made quite a few business and creative decisions that have upset many fans over the years. That's why whenever Mr. McMahon finally gets what's coming to him at the hands of the various wrestlers he's employed over the years (and on occasion his own family,) it becomes a feel good moment where everyone celebrates the fact that the boss is no longer basking in his own radiance. Even better, when he is given a taste of his own medicine - like when Hornswoggle famously bit him, the result is even sweeter. Here are twelve particular moments where Mr. McMahon's "grapefruits" wound up shrivelling to the size of raisins.

12. Vince Gets His Head Shaved

In the weeks before WrestleMania 23, Vince McMahon and fellow billionaire Donald Trump had a feud going between the two of them. Their relationship goes all the way back to when Trump Towers hosted WrestleMania 4 and 5 back in the day, and since that time Vince and Trump have usually seen eye to eye on a lot of things. However, back in 2007, the two hated each other's guts, and so a "Battle of the Billionaires" took place at the big event with Bobby Lashley and Umaga representing Trump and McMahon respectively, and with Steve Austin serving as the special guest referee. The stipulation for the match was that the representative of the loser would get his head shaved. For the longest time Vince taunted that he was going to finally get rid of Trump's signature hairdo, but a win from Lashley ensured that McMahon would be sitting in the barber's chair. Lashley and Steve held Vince down while Trump had the honour of shaving off Vince's hair, and while the winners celebrated, Vinny Mac, bald and covered in shaving cream, retreated to the back sobbing over the loss of his locks.
