WWE Chairman Vince McMahon is an oddball, to say the least. While running WWE for almost four decades, Vince McMahon has been a part of hundreds of ridiculous stories. Funnily enough, many of these have taken place on WWE programming and are therefore available for fans to watch. One such instance was Vince McMahon using the N-word live on TV in front of WWE Hall of Famer Booker T and his wife Sharmell.

The notoriously iconic video is making the rounds on the internet. In the clip, Vince talked to John Cena at first in a different-than-usual accent. He ends the conversation by calling Cena the N-word and walks away. While walking off, he crosses Booker T and his wife Sharmell. This prompted Booker to say, “Tell me he didn’t just say that.”

This was received poorly by the audience, and WWE was criticized for allowing it to air on TV. Vince McMahon also faced severe backlash for his comment, making a joke out of it with Booker T and Sharmell standing right there. After all the controversy, the segment was taken down from the WWE network and is no longer available to watch. Watch Booker T and Sharmell react to Vince McMahon using the N-word on live TV:

WWE has a history of controversial segments, including racially insensitive skits featuring DX, later removed from the network due to backlash. With WWE now a public company, they are more cautious about the content they produce and its potential implications.

Vince McMahon wanted to be the father of Stephanie McMahon’s child for a WWE storyline

Vince McMahon is one of the weirdest minds that the professional wrestling industry has ever seen. There are hundreds of stories that make fans question the thinking that goes into McMahon’s mind.

Stephanie revealed that Vince had proposed a storyline where they use her real-life pregnancy on WWE programming. In this, they would reveal that the child was born out of incest. Vince wanted to be revealed as the father of the child. However, Stephanie straight-up shot down the plan. To this end, Vince proposed that they do this story with Stephanie and her brother Shane McMahon.

The storyline never came into action. However, it is just a testament to the wild thoughts that come into Vinnie Mac’s mind. Despite being one of the most successful people in the world, fans also remember McMahon for bizarre stories like these.
