10 WWE Matches That Made Vince McMahon Angry
2. Rhyno Vs. Tajiri (August 31 2003)
At least McMahon let Trish and Mickie work through their miscommunications and finish the match. Rhyno and Tajiri, several years earlier, hadn't been so lucky.
On a house show sprint in the summer of 2003, both must have been horrified to see Vince storm through the curtain and stop their match over the live mic. This is where the story gets good. In an interview with Wrestling Inc, Rhyno told how he couldn't really hear McMahon talk due to the speaker set-up, and so he thought he was working. It wasn't until he got backstage that he found out Vince was serious.
McMahon, who had been watching fans chant 'Boring' at both wrestlers, decided to take matters into his own hands and speed things along to a bikini contest segment sooner than planned. The humiliation has become pretty famous in the years since it happened, and it's something Rhyno laughs about now.
He'd end up getting a pretty decent pay off from that night, probably because Vince felt bad about interrupting his match (he's guessing). Still, it can't have been fun at the time.
