Ranking Every Incarnation Of The Mr McMahon Character From Worst To Best

8. Idiot

D-Generation-X's 2006 return had a deeply destructive impact on WWE's entire output thanks to the insistence that Shawn Michaels and Triple H bulldoze absolutely everybody in their path with relative ease despite being just about the two least identifiable characters on the show.

Married in to the McMahon empire at this point, 'The Game's casting as a never-grow-up jock was the biggest creative crime, but the gentler modern day Shawn Michaels as a mirror universe angelic version of himself from ten years prior was almost as tough to swallow.

Alongside the doomed Spirit Squad, Vince was the biggest victim of the braindead hijinks of the merchandise-flogging nincompoops, driven to distraction by the pair and their endless abuse. Few had ever been permitted to treat the 'Mr McMahon' character so disdainfully on television, with Vince himself rarely scripting the character to get sucked into to such lethargic schemes.

Amongst the worst moments were the dynamic duo regularly winding the Chairman up with an insufferable 'Vince Loves !*$%' line, as well as 'spray-painting' the DX letters on his jet, his building and even his cameras. The bloody hoodlums.

Raining down sh*t on Vince, Shane and their cheerleading goons in another atrocious Raw segment, Hunter and Shawn at least managed to capture in literal form what exactly they'd perpetrated on the wider audience all summer.
