8 Wrestlers That Lost Their Tempers With Reporters

4. Vader

Vader, along with his fellow WWE main eventer The Undertaker, appeared on Kuwaiti television to promote a show the pair were headlining. The first question the unwitting reporter asked the pair was probably a mistake in hindsight: 'Is wrestling fake?' 'Taker, the consummate professional, gave the most diplomatic of answers explaining how wrestling was the combination of fine athletic endeavour and entertainment. After the interviewer translated The Phenom's answer, he tried to move on to the next question only for Vader to interrupt him. The Mastodon felt insulted by the question but as 'Taker took the high road, Vader dealt with it in the opposite manner. He questioned how not every man could do what he does before letting the reporter know how he felt. The reporter answered the former WCW Champion back which was another huge mistake. Vader would flip the coffee table in front of him before grabbing the reporter by the tie and shouting "Does that feel f*cking fake?" and offering to kick his a*s. He was subsequently arrested and charged with assault and using obscene language. He spent ten days under house arrest, eventually being allowed to leave the country after paying a small fine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJf1Bgfzx-U
