10 Times Vince McMahon's Real Life Things Became WWE Props

Vince McMahon has never been shy about using his real life possessions on WWE TV.

Understatement of the year alert: Vince McMahon is a complex human being.

The WWE patriarch's idiosyncrasies have become stuff of legend, but there's bound to be some exaggeration hidden in amongst tales of how much Vince hates sneezing, doesn't like eating with his hands and more. One thing that's not up for debate is just how open McMahon is to using his real life things on company television.

His private life has been used to drive on screen plots forward countless times - that has only slowed in recent times due to Vince's advanced age and apparent desire to remove himself from the public eye as a full-time TV character. Some of his prized possessions haven't followed him into the shadows though.

One of them is still in full view on camera every single week.

There's a mix of absurdity and seriousness here too. Some possessions-turned-props were one-offs that most have probably forgotten. Others? Well, others cost McMahon thousands of dollars or exposed his over-the-top love of in-your-face masculinity to the world.

Sometimes, the boss has even (willingly) made a complete and utter ass of himself...

10. His Ass

Literally.

It's worth mentioning at this point that there's a lighthearted flavour to this list (as if you thought anything else when the very first entry is Vince McMahon's arse), and it doesn't take much seriously. After all, how could anyone relive Vinnie's infamous "Kiss My Ass Club" with a straight face?

Everyone from William Regal and Shawn Michaels to Jim Ross and even his son Shane has puckered up for McMahon's butt over the years. There was a spell, starting right after Survivor Series 2001, in which this dubious "Club" was a mainstay of company output and something fans expected - it was overtly ridiculous.

Hearing Vince speak about his behind as if it was God's greatest creation was prime Vinnie Mac banter, but these skits have become something of a hidden commentary on his management style in real life. Can you imagine any other boss in the world scripting something like this? No, you can't.
