The likes of Mick Foley and Steve Austin have poked fun at Vince McMahon's over-the-top mannerisms before. In doing so, they weren't criticising McMahon's performances, they were simply enjoying the fact that the boss likes to ham it up from time to time. His trademark big gulp and exaggerated strut are fine examples of this.

At WrestleMania 23, Vince watched as Umaga failed to defeat Bobby Lashley. The match had been booked to capitalise on the presence of Donald Trump, the idea being that neither he or McMahon could stand one another. As a result, the wrestler who lost on the night would see their representative shaved bald.

When Lashley vanquished Umaga, McMahon was an utter riot. Pinned to a chair and shaved in humiliating fashion, he kicked and screamed his heart out. This only heightened the embarrassment, ensuring that everyone in attendance got a kick out of seeing the pompous WWE owner humbled.

Vince's face when he caught a glimpse of himself was legendary, and his post-match reaction definitely overshadowed the action Lashley and Umaga had contested.
