10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About Jim Ross

4. He Was Mocked By Vince McMahon For Having Facial Paralysis

Vince McMahon was in a backstage skit with Hornswoggle on the June 11, 2012 edition of Raw. Hornswoggle was wearing a black cowboy hat, so Vince took the hat from him and decided to mock JR. It wasn't what he said that was offensive. It's the face that he made. As most fans know, Ross has suffered from Bell's Pallsy, which has caused him to have a facial paralysis. McMahon, his boss for nearly a decade by this point, decided to poke fun at JR by making a ridiculous facial expression with his mouth looking weird and his eyes squinted. He went on to yell "Stone Cold" repeatedly like JR has been known to do. Then as Hornswoggle left, he said "Sauce It" like JR has been known to do referring to his BBQ Sauce. It was such odd behavior from McMahon. Keep in mind that WWE was pushing their anti-bullying campaign hard and then they had the WWE Chairman mocking somebody because of how they looked. Be a star, Vince.
