10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (June 1)
6. King Kong Bundy's Computing Job Enraged Vince McMahon
Vince McMahon didn't want King Kong Bundy to wind down his in-ring career and start pursuing other jobs away from the WWF, but that's exactly what Bundy started doing in the late-80s.
Just a few years on from working in the WrestleMania II main event against Hulk Hogan, the egg-shaped heel decided he'd rather step away from wrestling and start working for a computer company instead. That left McMahon enraged and, according to Bundy's comments on the Two Man Power Trip Of Wrestling show, temporarily killed his career.
Bundy wouldn't wrestle for McMahon again until a disastrously poor run in 1994-1995.
Things were never the same. Perhaps Vince, viewing the bald-headed baddie as a monster heel who definitely shouldn't have been sitting at a computer desk, was disgusted one of his WWF Superstars would seek alternate employment.
