8 Things You Didn’t Realise Were Banned In WWE

8. Reaching Out Into The Crowd

Ever wonder why we don't see more WWE stars launching themselves into the crowd and celebrating arm in arm with supporters in the wake of a career-defining victory? And no it's not because they're all currently being beamed into the ThunderDome via LED screens. Smart a*se.

It's actually due to the fact that our favourite WWE guys and gals are usually forced to pay a hefty fine if and when they choose to get a little too close to the crowd. According to Hall of Famer Mark Henry, wrestlers are forced to pay $70,000 should they break this specific rule.

As he told Mohr Stories:

“We’re not allowed to put our hands on nobody. $70,000 fine if you reach out into the crowd. You're going to get fined.”

Of course, the company does allow a little bit of leeway with this particular law, with most wrestlers being allowed to high five the crowd on their way to and from the ring. But there's clearly a line Vince McMahon doesn't want his stars to cross, and if they do, their wallets will be left feeling that much lighter because of it.
