10 Worst Things Vince McMahon Has Ever Done To Triple H

10. Firing Him On-Screen For John Laurinaitis

Before focusing on the real-life crap the returning boss has launched his son-in-law's way over the years, it's first time to relive that bizarre period of WWE programming that saw The Game stepping in as COO after relieving Vince of his on-screen duties.

What followed that initial booting of the pink-suited Mr. McMahon character in the wake of the controversial ending to 2011's Money in the Bank PPV was a pretty turbulent time for both the audience and Trips himself.

On top of having to deal with a p*ssed off CM Punk and old pal Kevin Nash being an all-round nuisance, The Miz and R-Truth causing chaos every week soon led to the rest of the on-screen personalities giving the struggling new boss a vote of no confidence.

And in what likely sits as just about the most embarrassing thing any on-screen character - or real-life figure for that matter - can experience in their professional life, The King of Kings eventually found himself being relieved by his father-in-law later down the road and replaced by none other than Johnny Ace.

Here's hoping kayfabe history doesn't repeat itself in reality in the coming months, and the same John Laurinaitis who was let go after being implicated in the recent McMahon "hush money" scandal doesn't find a way to wriggle back into the WWE system, too.
