10 Craziest On-Screen Arrests In WWE History

10. Vince McMahon (2015)

Very few companies would want to portray their owner as a criminal live on global television, but WWE have actually done so on more than one occasion. The most recent instance came on the Dec. 28, 2015 showing of Monday Night Raw when Vince McMahon was arrested for getting a little too handsy with a supposed member of the law.

Initially, the plan had been for Vince and Stephanie McMahon to have Roman Reigns arrested for pushing over the chairman of the board. Of course, being the fine, upstanding officers they were, the cops in question refused to allow the McMahon’s to manipulate them in such a way.

Clearly Vince didn’t take too kindly to this, getting more and more riled before declaring “I’m Vince McMahon, you’ve got to care who I am pal!” and eventually seizing the officer by the lapels.

Quickly realising the error of his ways, Vince soon adopted a more apologetic tone, but the damage had already been done. Vince was reprimanded and sent to the cells, spawning one of the most brilliant t-shirt designs I’ve ever seen.

Though Vince was eventually taken quietly, the fact that this was a 70-year-old executive allegedly being arrested makes this one worthy of a spot on the list.
