10 WWE Ideas So Awful Even Legends Couldn't Get Them Over
1. The Kiss My Ass Club
Vince McMahon presumably assumed that the 'Kiss My Ass' club was one of those ideas that would definitely become infamous if enough people committed to the bit, despite it being perhaps the darkest chapter of his character's decorated life on screen.
Launched the night after he took back storyline control of his company, the sight gag of simpering WCW/ECW Alliance turncoat William Regal laying a smacker on McMahon's a*se-cheek to get his job back would have justified the concept as a one shot deal. That it went on and on and on for weeks originally before being dragged out of obscurity years later made the idea so utterly detestable.
It being a Vince passion project ensured that everybody would be enlisted to make it a heatseeker. Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Mick Foley, Shawn Michaels and countless other luminaries have at one point been involved in segments entirely devoted to McMahon whipping his flue out on television, with The Undertaker's late-2001 heel turn even based around Jim Ross' understandable refusal to partake.
Hornswoggle remains the last inductee, marking now a full decade since Vince's bare backside appeared mid-ring on WWE television. Perhaps he's finally got it out of his system, but then it is wrestling - never say never.
