Vince McMahon has been a part of numerous outrageous storylines during his time in WWE. These storylines have included dying in a car explosion, cheating on his wife, beating up his son, and multiple other things. One such storyline involved Vince McMahon having an illegitimate child, who was revealed to be former WWE superstar Hornswoggle.

Hornswoggle debuted in WWE in 2006. He was first seen on SmackDown alongside Fit Finlay and would help him by distracting his opponents during his matches. During his storyline with Vince McMahon, it was later revealed that Swoggle was Finlay’s son, not Vince McMahon’s. However, it looks like WWE fans do not remember how the story ended almost 15 years ago.

While talking on Inside The Ropes, the former WWE superstar cleared up the confusion among fans. He said fans still mock him for being Vince McMahon’s son. Swoggle used the interview to remind everyone that the story did not end with him being McMahon’s son. He was revealed to be Finlay’s son, and the blow-off match happened at WrestleMania 24. Finlay took on JBL, who helped Vince McMahon destroy the father-son duo.

Hornswoggle revealed that his real father is Eric Postl. He also went on to say that his father is the coolest father on the planet. The former WWE superstar also told fans that Vince McMahon is Shane McMahon’s father. He said that fans should ask Shane about Mr. McMahon instead of asking Swoggle.

Hornswoggle stated that he is tired of the fans asking him the same questions and wants them to stop. The 37-year-old parted ways with the company in 2016. He has made sporadic appearances at the company ever since. He appeared at the Greatest Royal Rumble in 2018 and at the Royal Rumble in 2019.

Hornswoggle was last seen in WWE in 2019, making sporadic appearances until that point. Swoggle revealed that his father pushed him to do interviews after his release and talk about WWE. He felt that if he did not talk about his experience himself, the media might use it to promote negative things about it.

Therefore, Hornswoggle cleared the air on the negative remarks. He had nothing but good things to say during his time at the company. He also revealed that the company allowed him to live his dream for over 10 years. His time in WWE also helped him earn enough money so that his son could have comfort in his life.

When asked about his future, Hornswoggle revealed that he has no plans to return to an in-ring role in any company. He is looking forward to having a coaching role and helping upcoming stars learn the sport.
