Here's a question: what, if anything, was something Taz(z) feared the most during his WWE run? Politics? The idea that he wasn't treated with the same respect as an in-ring worker like he had been in the original ECW? How about keeping on top of his announce work so Vince McMahon was satisfied? It was none of those things.

Taz worried about taking a trip to the dessert table at catering.

On The Taz Show, the former (underrated) SmackDown colour man said it was an unwritten rule never to visit the sweet section whenever Vince or Stephanie McMahon were around. That's because the father and daughter duo would team up to rib wrestlers for daring to have a sweet tooth.

It's important to point out that they were just having a giggle. Taz didn't lambast the pair for their actions or anything, but he did say it was wise to avoid opening oneself up to their ridicule. The McMahon family were in excellent shape, and they knew it.
