10 Times Vince McMahon's Real Life Things Became WWE Props
9. William Regal's Brass Knucks
It's often forgotten that McMahon was actually the one who handed those trademark brass knucks to Wiliam Regal in the first place. It's true; Vince sneaked the weapon into Regal's mitts during an otherwise-throwaway backstage segment in early-2002.
Check out Kurt Angle's super-suspicious face. He was background gold here.
Technically then, those knuckle dusters belonged to McMahon in the first place, so they just qualify for this list. Most fans couldn't be expected to remember a short backstage moment like this one. In fact, many likely believe that Regal started using the 'Power Of The Punch' of his own accord.
Not quite. He was handed the gimmick by sneaky heel Vince and quickly turned the knucks into his go-to spot during matches for a few years afterwards. Angle didn't need similar treatment, obviously. He won Olympic gold with a broken freakin' neck, don't you know?
