10 Hilarious Times Wrestling Didn't Take Itself Too Seriously

10. Vince McMahon's Polygraph

Vince McMahon would be terrifying to work for, but in some ways he’s the world’s best boss. He’ll never ask anything of his staff that he wouldn’t do himself, including but not limited to making himself look a prize fool on national TV.

The dying days of Hulk Hogan’s return saw the Hulkster masquerading as the masked Mr America. In order to catch him out, Vince hooked America to a polygraph test; the masked man denied being Hogan, and passed. An irate McMahon submitted himself to the lie detector to prove it was crocked, and you can see where we’re going from here.

Vince commits himself completely to the bit, with the detector confirming that he’s a power crazed pervert who doesn’t care a jot about the fans and is only in it for himself. We could have guessed most of this, but he goes on to detail what he does in his alone time (it involves Tori Wilson’s Playboy shoot and photos of Mae Young).

For all Vince’s egoism and short-sighted decision making, he proves here that he’s willing to do anything in his power to amuse and entertain a crowd.
