10 WWE Swearing Outbursts That Got Past The Censors

2. Vince McMahon - Raw (22 February 2016)

Vince McMahon is a genius.

Don't believe it? Just ask him or any of the talent contractually obliged to kiss the ring on DVD profiles or the *ss on television.

For further proof, look no further than the 22 February 2016 Monday Night Raw opening segment. McMahon found his WrestleMania 32 card savaged by a roster ravaged. The injury bug had bit hard, and there were an alarmingly small number of major matches lined up for a card he intended to fill the 100,000-seater AT&T Stadium with.

In real life, his solution was one his character had to pretend to despise. A returning Shane McMahon skipped out onto the stage having irritatingly not lost a step, jigging all the way to the ring and an eventual 'Show Of Shows' clash with The Undertaker. The contest proved an unlikely ticket-seller (Vince = Genius, after all), but Shane's return to screens would harness more bad than good over the long term.

Vince the genius knew it, and captured the future frustrations of his audience with one jaw-dropping decree.

"I have one last opportunity to give you a f*cking beating".

He hasn't taken said opportunity yet, but we live in hope.
