10. Stephanie McMahon is Kissed By Eric Bischoff
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vUm5wQlmvw In 2002, Stephanie McMahon was re-cast from being "Triple H's wife and WWE Women's Champion" to being "savvy and smart businesswoman who was the General Manager of WWE Smackdown. If you're also thinking that this re-branding of Stephanie as a performer would keep her safe from abuse, that's where you're wrong. On the Halloween 2002 episode of Smackdown, Raw GM (and Stephanie's on-screen competitor) Eric Bischoff forcibly kissed Stephanie while wearing a mask and costume to make him appear to be Vince McMahon. Oedipus, much? That level of storyline psychological abuse is definitely crossing (many) lines.
