10 Times Vince McMahon Lost His Damn Mind
2. Dropping The F-Bomb On TV
Shane McMahon's shocking return to WWE TV was one of the most well-received homecomings in recent years. The reemergence of WWE's prodigal son was met with shock, awe and adulation at the time and took virtually the entire audience off-guard.
In the interest of realism, Vince soon got down to business with his estranged son and things got heated in a hurry. Straddling the line of reality and fiction, Vince laid into Shane with a verbal tirade that got more intense and personal as it went on. So intense, that he even dropped an F-bomb on live TV.
Staring straight into his son's eyes, Vince told Shane that his participation at WrestleMania 32 would give Vince "one last opportunity to give [him] a f***ing beating". The word was miraculously edited out of the live broadcast by the quick trigger fingers of the editing staff. Despite this fact, the videos have since surfaced of the live audio where it's clearly heard.
At the time, WrestleMania 32 was missing a vital ingredient; the fiery reintroduction of 'The Boy Wonder' gave the 100,000+ attendees something to really look forward to. While the subsequent involvement of The Undertaker would be a little contrived from a logical stand-point, the added Hell in a Cell stipulation was the icing on the cake.
