10 Times Vince McMahon Sold His Soul
5. Devils
Vince, as 'Mr McMahon', was many things to many folk during his transcendent transformation from colour-coated commentator to malevolent millionaire in the late 1990s, but it wasn't until the company floated on the New York Stock Exchange in 2000 that some new wires came loose in the back of his chaotic brain.
Flexing his power more than his own pecs during matches he insisted on wrestling topless during the height of his feud with Stone Cold Steve Austin, McMahon turned up his sexual aggression towards an endless slew of women he'd hired with the regularity of the verbal dressing down he gave the men.
Trish Stratus was his first notable conquest, but when McMahon went all in on her like a young buck as they necked on in front of his comatose wife Linda, most assumed this would be a one-and-done for the lunatic's libido. Instead it became a part of his persona - cannily devised in order for most incoming Divas to use his d*ck as a sorority initiation.
He cured Candice Michelle's 'Labiagytus' and other ills by grabbing liberal handfuls of her chest, he got semi-naked with Torrie Wilson, had Raw roster rank-and-files rabble-rouse under his orders, and memed himself into an orgasmic frenzy with a peek up Stacey Keibler's skirt as she danced for his approval. It's the sort of stuff only those high up in this particular industry could 'get away with'. His industry. Him at the top.
