10 Unusual Ways To Lose Your Job With WWE
6. Nearly Kill Everybody
A May 2002 Raw brand flight from Great Britain to the United States became known as the "Plane Ride from Hell" after copious amounts of alcohol and impatient wrestlers led to raucous, embarrassing, and dangerous conditions - not the least of which was a "fight" between Mr. Perfect and rookie Brock Lesnar.
Perfect and Lesnar were actually longtime friends, with the veteran having helped the former NCAA Champion prepare for a career in pro wrestling. Apparently, Perfect was looking for another scrap, as the intoxicated former Intercontinental Champion tried to goad Lesnar into an amateur wrestling match in the plane's aisle. A nervous Lesnar didn't want to get involved, but Paul Heyman told "The Beast" that he had to prove himself in front of his peers. Lesnar and Perfect locked up and tussled, and before long, Triple H was on them, trying to separate the wrestlers.
