Before reading this, we'd like to encourage everyone to ring up their local beauty salon and book a quick manicure. Confused? Anyone would be, especially if they were in the process of going through bankruptcy at the same time. According to Bruce, that's exactly what Vinnie Mac did early in his career.

After realising he was financially ruined, Vince decided to book he and wife Linda in for a little pampering session, and later told Prichard that it was important to have class even in times of struggle. It's a life lesson, granted, but a fairly odd one.

It resonated with Bruce though, and he followed suit years later.

Around the same time he was working for TNA (no jokes), Prichard was forced to file for bankruptcy. Seizing the moment, he booked a manicure, rang Vince and told him the news. McMahon's response was a hearty, "You gotta' have class, pal". Tremendous.
