10 Shocking WWE Angles That Crossed The Line

10. Dr Heiney

WWE are often quick to chastise WCW for their wrongdoings in the past and regularly cite the Oklahoma character as a deplorable mocking of Jim Ross and his Bell's palsy affliction. However, WWE have been no saints themselves in the past and have been particularly heartless to Ross as well.

One such occasion was the infamous "Dr Heiney" segment. JR had just undergone a real-life colonoscopy the week before, which Vince McMahon saw as an opportunity too good not to address on Raw. As such, the world was treated to a hospital skit whereby Vince - dressed in full surgeon gear - "operated" on JR's keester, complete with JR sound bites and comic sound effects.

The segment lasted over seven minutes long and involved Vince pulling various items out of JR cheeks: ranging from BBQ sauce and an owl to an Oklahoma Sooners helmet and JR's head itself. Ironically, the whole skit was more of an embarrassment to McMahon than Ross himself and showed the lack of class of all involved.

Luckily, Ross' real colon surgery proved to be successful and JR would return to WWE TV five months later. After such on-air bullying, it's surprising he wanted to return at all.
