WWE: 13 Times Vince McMahon Went Way Too Far

9. Vince Vs. God

Hbk God 20060420 Now, I personally didn't find this angle bad at all, but then again I'm not religious in any way shape or form, and I know people who found it highly offensive. At Backlash 2006, the team of Vince and Shane O' Mac took on Shawn Michaels and his partner God. Conceived as a way of making fun of Shawn Michaels born again Christianity, "God" was represented by a spotlight which slowly made its way to the ring, with Vince even instructing the referee to check God for any foreign objects. As a Brit, it didn't phase me, but in America where Christianity is still more prevalent in everyday society than it is here, that's a hell of a way to alienate a large chunk of your audience. But hey, at least Vince had fun.
