Few father and son on-screen relationships have been quite as tumultuous as that of Vince and Shane McMahon.

This McMahon duo have been through quite the ride during their time shown together in the land of sports entertainment. From Shane being supportive of his father, to then siding with 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin against Vince, to then screwing Austin, to both McMahons heading up the Corporation, to a babyface Shane O'Mac battling Vince in a brilliant car crash of a match at WrestleMania X-Seven, to the pair even teaming up to take on God, and everything in between - it's been nothing if not eventful for this father and son.

Even in the years since Shane McMahon returned to the WWE fold in 2016, he's more often than not found himself intertwined with Vinny Mac, such as Vince booking Shane in a Hell in a Cell bout against the Undertaker at WrestleMania 32, or Vince being laid out by Kevin Owens as part of KO's rivalry with the eldest McMahon sibling.

With Shane having recently resurfaced on WWE Raw to setup the Elimination Chamber PPV, it seems only a matter of time before we again seen this father and son pairing on our screens once more.
