Consider everything you know about Vince McMahon in 2023, then try to understand just how angry he must've been whilst camped on the canvas at the 2005 Royal Rumble. Things had already gone wrong before he hit the scene; John Cena and Batista had accidentally tumbled out of the ring at the same time, which wasn't the planned finish.

People flapped, so Vince roared through the curtain and promised to sort things. On the way, he tore both of his quads and had to sit down on the mat as everybody wondered what was going on. McMahon had to be fuming, not least because his injury had been caused by somebody else's incompetence.

Cena, Batista and the refs had to be fearing his wrath.

There was none of that to come, at least not in the short term. Vince was carted off to hospital, Batista won as planned, and all was well that ended well. McMahon's muscles were in tatters though, and his pride took a beating too.
