10 Best Possible Last Words Of Vince McMahon

1. "WHATAMANOEUVRE!"

Jim Ross Vince McMahon

Well, what else?

A divisive commentator to say the last, Vince McMahon's voice was, to many, the soundtrack of their pro wrestling youth. His portmanteau was a favourite punch bag for superior announcers, but many of those couldn't land a blow when it came to getting across the characters in the same way he could.

It can be felt today - McMahon can be heard almost fluently through his sock puppet announcers that it's a wonder he doesn't just fire them all and go back to doing the job itself. In the picture painted for the site of his last words, it's easy to imagine something similar - nobody else permitted to speak until he's absolutely certain he's micromanaged the next decade or so of Monday Night Raw before death itself rings the bell (rings the f*cking bell) on him.

Whatever finisher it used, he'd call it wrong, but he'd throw himself behind it with such vigor that the whole room would pop in spite of themselves. In the ultimate payoff, lifelong promoter Vince McMahon pays off his longest running line before bidding adieu:

"1...2...3 hegothimnohedidn't...yes he did. Whatamonoeuvre"
