22 WTF Moments From This Week In WWE RAW History

8. Jeff Hardy Likens Vince McMahon To Saddam Hussein - 17th December 2007

Because WWE loves to flog dead horses and be needlessly controversial, this post-15th Anniversary edition of Raw saw a deeply troubled Vince McMahon spinning a self-indulgent €œwoe is me€ speech. You could almost see his bottom lip go after claiming he was a human being and his heart was broken by everyone enjoying him getting beaten up on the birthday celebration. That he did it in the aftermath of a cartoonish 8-diva Santa€™s Little Helper match was pleasantly ironic. Then out came voice of the people Jeff Hardy - white hot with the crowd - to say he was a monster of genocidal proportions, with the handy reference point of WWE€™s trip to Iraq coming up the next week:
€œSaddam was a cruel, self-serving control freak. Sound familiar?€
McMahon did what anyone would, having a breakdown and then speaking in tongues until Triple H came out to rub it in.
