WWE Boss Vince McMahon Missed A Meeting Because He Was PLAYING VIDEO GAMES

UpUpDownDown awaits?

WWF WrestleMania The Arcade Game

Bruce Prichard told a hilarious story about Vince McMahon on his 'Something To Wrestle With' podcast this week.

Back in the 1990s, Bruce was chilling in the hallways of WWF headquarters with his wife and young children. Bored, he propped his son up on a chair and let him play one of the arcade video game cabinets the company had sitting around.

That's when something magical happened.

None other than Vince McMahon strolled out of a meeting room, said hello to Bruce's family and then sat down to have a game with Prichard's son Kane (who, yes, is named after the wrestler). According to Bruce, Vince and his boy proceeded to play WrestleMania: The Arcade Game for a good 15-20 minutes.

Suddenly, some confused faces started to appear in the hallway. McMahon had temporarily left a creative meeting and got caught up in the game, and nobody could quite believe what they were seeing.

Vince was mashing buttons, giggling and trying to take down a three-four year old kid. That's when someone reminded him that they still hadn't concluded the conference.

Rumours that McMahon has pre-ordered a PS5 are unsubstantiated.
