Vince McMahon's Biggest Overreactions

[@Mst3kfanatic1]

WCW actually approached Undertaker many many times in the mid 90's to jump ship and Undertaker refused everytime deciding to stay with WWF. This is why Vince pretty much made Taker king of the locker room.

[@shaunwilen6765]

Mst3kfanatic1 he was already king

[@Chraan]

Taker was probably the only reason why WWF was able to survive at that time, he should have been made the new CEO instead of their mafia-family business concept today.

I'm pretty sure he's referring to Vince's personal respect. I'd argue that the difference is, the Taker has earned that respect in the ring. JBL earned it backstage.

[@HoofHearted88]

I am convinced the Montreal Screwjob is a work. But even if it isn't, I don't think McMahon overreacted there actually. I could understand the move from his perspective. The Batista fine is my number one annoyance. What Adam forgot to mention is that Batista wasn't the only one fined; his opponent (Jericho) was also fined, as was the producer, who had absolutely nothing to do with it. Class act as he is, Batista paid the fines for everyone involved so that nobody would have to suffer but himself. He said he lost the passion for wrestling the day Vince announced his fine. He bladed for the enjoyment of everyone involved and it made the story a lot better. The sad thing is that wrestlers feel restricted by Vinces way of penalising. If the wrestlers feel restricted they aren't having as much fun, which in turn shows for the tv viewer. Batista knew it. The man deserves a lot more credit than he's been given. Dave Bautista is a great man.

[@walsh8921]

to this day i never thought TMSJ was an overreaction. Vince dis what he thought was right for his company

[@ScottDelleFave]

Me too. It might have saved american professional wrestling on a national stage.

[@elyasmacherawb]

When a fake fighter thinks they can dictate when they lose their fake championship belt that they were written to have, they might run into problems. Someone else might roll with the it's-not-real thing and fix a match even further than it would be otherwise.

[@NyaWatkinsOnYoutube]

The Likely Lad I think it was an overreaction because there were other alternatives that people came up with and even one they'd agreed on. However, I understand his feeling like there were no other alternatives because Bret and Shawn were both being brats.

[@RevampedWrestlingTV]

Though Vince McMahon has a lot of success he's still not right up there, the guy has some racial traits and as people know he has a thing for girly guy characters such as HBK and others, and notably he mistreated some of his talent and even had sex scandals as well as drug scandal and legal court issues, he's probably bipolar and has other issues that we don't know of, either way most wrestlers these days don't have the balls like most recent ones CM Punk & Alberto Del Rio, Batista even though ADR went back for the money though.

[@lilprincekilla]

+RevampedWrestlingTV Reminder, nobody is perfect. I'm not gonna say Vince is all that. We don't really know him personally. And he's learned to embrace the bad guy persona. So we're gonna hear all the negative stuff. I think you're over reacting with some of the stuff you're saying.

[@lilprincekilla]

+eJs You know what he means by Michaels being a girly guy. "I think I'm cute, I know I'm sexy, I got the looks....." I'm partly metro so I know where he's coming from. He's just wrong about his statement. Vince likes bulky muscular guys and perfer them over small guys like X pac, Rey Mysterio, and Shawn Michaels.

[@lilprincekilla]

***** A straight guy with some what feminine traits. Keeping clean, making sure everything is tidy. That's metro. Basically no being rough, rugged, dirty, and super manly. Not looking like a caveman and grooming yourself. Shawn Michaels used to come out being a hot shot that shows off mixed with a hint of Val Venus to show off to the ladies. If that's not hetero, I don't know what is.

[@lukejohnson6275]

So you're saying McMahon should have let Brett Hart walkout as champion, and never become the greatest heel of all time? Yea, that was a big mistake.

[@FrozenSurf]

Bret

[@lukejohnson6275]

Whether or not it was intended, his decision still benefited him. On top that, he couldn't have Bret leave as champion even if he didn't take the belt to WCW. McMahon would be putting Bret more over for the other brand, let alone losing credibility on the WWE roster. Bret is the one who overreacted by punching McMahon in the eye and breaking his hand. He was one of the hottest figures in the industry after that incident, but put himself out of action for two to three months.

[@martinledavis2724]

it is Vinces fault however, he should have taken the belt off him at least a month earlier. In his book Bret states he didn't want to drop it to Shawn as Shawn had refused to put Davy over in England.

[@jaketheauroran]

+Martin Le Davis Bret was an employee and should have done the job he was told to do. That's where "jobbing" comes from - doing your job, not worrying about how you look. Vince was his boss and told him what to do - but Bret refused to do his job. Bret screwed Bret.

To be fair with the Nuggets one, the agreement wasn't for any random basketball game. That year the Nuggets and Lakers were playing each other in the Western Conference Finals, which for those who don't basketball is a fairly big deal. This is why it made sense that the heels were the Nuggets while Raw was in LA. It wasn't bashing Denver in COMPLETELY random fashion. Still quite petty, but the context helps it a bit.

[@raffin2040]

[@Seanaztech]

[@ChrisMNRL1]

Here is an idea. What if the Titus O'Neill suspension was just a work and Shane McMahon is gonna get Titus to fight for him at Wrestlemania against the Undertaker? Not only would it build Titus as a ultimate babyface, but it would brew up a new Authority Story line since Reigns is most likely going to go over at Wrestlemania and end the feud (Hopefully).

[@iomis2001]

I don't think the Bret one was an overreaction. Why would Vince let a guy leave as champion to go to another company?

[@Captain_Pudding]

+kolop1 Especially considering the last time someone left as champion the belt ended up in a trash can on nitro. On your way out, you do the job, Hart's as old school as they come, he knew the rules and he didn't want to play by them.

[@jamesf791]

+kolop1 When Vince could have easily told Bret, "drop the belt or you are suspended from TV." No, he decided to play him and the rest of the locker room and in doing so told them, that Vince McMahon can not ever be trusted and his word is meaningless. Great strategy by Vince.

[@Jake-cy7to]

+kolop1 it was a genious move, bret is an idiot and he didnt wanted to lose. so vince gave him what he deserved

[@Captain_Pudding]

James Fitzgerald How do you suspend a guy who doesn't work there anymore?

[@jamesf791]

+Captain_Pudding We are talking about while Bret was currently working for Vince.

[@cowscrazy]

When you say that Bret was leaving for a more lucrative contract your leaving out the fact that Vince is the one making him leave to save money. He had a 20 year contract with WWE at the time. So this was all Vinces doing having him leave the company in the first place. Making the over reaction even greater.

[@DC90]

What happened in Montreal was standard practise to make sure that the guy leaving the company doesn't leave whit the belt. Everybody did that, not on televised events but still.

[@richard5X5]

The Montreal Screw-job wasn't an overreaction. Given the events that took place earlier with, Ric Flair leaving WCW with The Big Gold belt, and then having an angle shot using it really devalued the championship. Vince didn't want Bret to go to WCW and do the same to the Fed's belt. That's called learning from the mistakes of others. Also, the NBA Playoffs are more important than any wrestling event. Period. And as someone from Colorado who at the time was a huge wrestling fan, only like 12 years old, I was pretty annoyed by Vince doing this match. I had posters of a bunch of wrestlers in my room, not Nuggets posters mind you, wrestling posters. But how arrogant to get this upset that you had to schedule a regular show to another city because the NBA Playoffs are happening there. Plus the guy who owns the Nuggets also owns the Pepsi center so Vince basically said he never wanted to have a show in Colorado again because he burned that bridge.

[@mrspidey80]

But Bret never would've taken the belt to WCW. That's not who he is.

[@AshTheAntiHero]

Hilarious but true 😂😂😂😂

[@Holden308]

The thing I always found funny about The Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior DVD was that some of the wrestlers who had comments about him......weren't even around when the Warrior was with the company, or when he had that horrible WCW run.

[@Britton_Thompson]

The Montreal Screwjob is not an overreaction to something insignificant. Bret forced Vince's hand. Vince literally had no other option. Besides, Vince was the one with the most to lose in that scenario. He put his own credibility, and his company's future at risk by doing that. This occurred when the WWE was most vulnerable with legitimate competition in the form of the WCW, and having a boss who's willing to orchestrate double crosses is poison to the company brand. Wrestlers don't want to work somewhere that has a toxic locker room divided up by cliques & politics, and a boss who's shown he's willing to side with certain cliques over others. The Montreal Screwjob really was the last resort for WWF because even if you succeed in winning the battle to remove the title belt from Bret, you've inherently gambled on doing something so momentous that it could very likely lose you the overall war you're fighting. Bret really was just being ridiculous throughout that whole process back then. Not losing in Canada. Not losing on Monday night Raw because it shouldn't be free service. Ridiculous... The only scenario Bret would agree to dropping the world title belt to Shawn was at an obscure house show in the middle of the week because Bret refused to lose to Shawn Michaels where it could be filmed and shown to the world. Bret really did screw Bret.

[@wilrouxpaulsen4863]

Adam your voice sounds incredible in every video. Keep up the good work. 😊

[@richbaker8211]

Don't really see the Montreal Screwjob as an overreaction. Firstly, you've got a PPV main event between two of your hottest stars, so you can't strip Bret of the title as it'll ruin that, thus giving more ammo to WCW in the process. Secondly, you can't run the risk of Bret pulling an Alundra Blaze on you. The screwjob was the only real way out of the situation, as it meant you could have a stellar match while making sure the title doesn't leave the company. That said, WWF weren't too shy about having Ric Flair appear with the "big gold" NWA title when he jumped ship to WWF back in 1991!

[@classicjdog]

"It's not that simple" That could be said about the Stone Cold situation. He didn't want to do the job to Lesnar on a throwaway KOTR qualifier with no build.

[@misanchez305]

CortoMaltese86 Exactly. It wasn’t that Vince didn’t trust Bret, he didn’t trust Eric, and why would you? It was a messed up situation but they felt it was the only option to move forward, even if it meant Bret would be sour towards the company for more than a decade because of a business decision, not a personal one.

[@noname8710]

In regards to number 4 also: It was an NBA playoff game that the Pepsi Center got double booked for over Raw. Also, you forgot to mention that Vince McMahon had an impersonator of the Denver Nuggets owner come out just so Vince could embarrass him on-air. I would have ranked it even higher for just that reason.

[@HeelDashing]

i wouldn't say Vince overreacted with firing Punk.

[@jeep416]

+HeelDashing it wasn't that he fired Punk it's that he did it on his wedding day. Which is just messed up if it was done on purpose.

[@oz_jones]

+Gerald Gorman it wasn't. WWE released 11 other wrestlers at the same day.

[@dudderz1658]

It was the timing of his firing

[@NoName-cz3wn]

+Osmorosvo no, 11 other wrestlers were released the day before. Even further proof that there was no mix-up. Watch any shoot interview, when WWE sends you something, you get it the day you're supposed to. It was a huge dick move and there's no defending it.

[@walsh9080]

Sean Cone I'll happily defend it. An ex-employer is under no obligation to care about your plans for the future, especially not after you fucked their plans for the biggest night of the year. Answer me this, why should they care it's his wedding day? It's not their wedding day and it's a business Punk seriously burned bridges with. They fulfilled their obligation to Punk by providing him documentation of his release. They don't have any further obligation to him than that. It's not the nicest thing to do admittedly but to act like it's beyond justification is nonsensical.

[@JackPowerX]

I have never heard the phrase "mad as ceramic pants" before this video. Thank you for that.

[@ljaquos]

I don't think the Denver one was really petty. The guy signed a contract and didn't honor it. Vince didn't sue him or anything, just mocked him subtly to the point that if you didn't know about the double booking you'd think nothing of it. That one was fine.

[@GingerfulNerd]

Yeah, I thought that was pretty tame. Still slightly childish, but I'd be mad too if I had something scheduled months in advance that had to suddenly be changed. Plus I'm sure I watched that Raw and had no idea about the sports teams thing because I never pay attention to that stuff.

[@normangrimm4581]

Bret screwed Bret. With that line Vince turned himself heel.

[@melindaharris3005]

I disagree with the Montreal Screw Job being on this list. Maybe in hindsight, it seems like an overreaction. But let's remember that it took place during the height of the Monday Night War. And Vince had already seen what WCW would do to beat WWE in the ratings and put the WWE down, from giving away the results of a taped Raw to having to Women's Champion throw her title in the garbage. With WCW being able to announce the signing of Bret, why would Vince give WCW the ability to do anything to trash his company and it's most important title?

[@KingbuzzThegoat]

yaaaaay Adams back we luv u m8

[@boredXsomethingXIDK]

Bret did screw Bret. Vince was totally in the right on that one.. Bret was being an asshole refusing to drop the title knowing that he was about to leave the company & join WCW sooo he def got what he deserved.

+boredXsomethingXIDK He hated shawn in real life so you cant really blame him for not wanting to drop it

[@erikcastillo2475]

Bret hated Shawn in real ice plus the pay per view was in Canada which is Brets home country so it kinda makes sense why he didn't want to and he even offered to drop it on a show but Vince didn't want that

I dont get how in some videos you can blast wrestlers for refusing to go out on their back and then always come back to Montreal like its the worse thing ever. You go out on your back, which Hart refused to do.

[@thunderstudent]

We'll all be happier when Vince retires and the PG era ends, I just really wish he'd hand the company over to Shane instead of Triple H because he's ran the company into the ground. Also give the Undertaker an apprentice to show the true ways of being a herald of darkness because he and Kane aren't going to be there much longer.

Wow. It's almost completely unanimous from countless shoot interviews with talent over two decades, that Vince did the right thing. Bret is the only person that still thinks he was screwed. Oh, and the smarks - who of course know more than the pros....

[@alfiejkerr]

If anything, doesn't this prove the Vince needs to take a step back from running the company? I mean he wanted to fire Titus for minimal reasons and he's basically senile.

[@jamesf791]

Since you brought up Vince being blown up, I thought it was only fair that they almost fired Paul London for smiling. Now Paul London didn't know they were going to kill Vince and while he was not the only star smiling (Kelly Kelly) he was almost fired for smiling.

[@JoeTheProGamer]

How about when Hull Cogan was stripped off his HOF? I mean what he said was HORRIBLE, but damn the punishment was too much...

[@generaltrevs7036]

also Vince is racist

[@Speerosity]

To be honest the WWE HOF isn't that prestigious

[@creamithmanning2632]

Donald Trump is in the Hall of Fame, for fuck's sake. To hell with the HOF.

[@Joe90h]

+Fauzi Hashim I used to think it was an overreaction, but you have to remember the recording was found after a sex tape leak. Given that at this point Hulk Hogan is more of a liability than an asset, and his image doesn't get the big pops anymore, than it was a no brainer to cut him loose.

[@vincegalarza7736]

oh my god i was at that raw in the staples center with the lakers vs nuggets teams!! i had no idea the reason behind that until now, nearly 7 years later XD

[@fornogoodreason551]

jim cornnette said the montreal screw job was the only way to handle it cause bret refused to job to michaels

[@jaybeepeathree]

He wanted to go on Raw next night and denounce the tittle and go to WCW and he thought that was reasonable! Fuck Bret #TheShitman

[@randominternetsurfersurfin7595]

My Cool Stuff Rocks! Yes it was. It's retarded to think that bret wanted to lose the belt in his hometown,to Michaels of all people.

[@walsh9080]

Cornette also acknowledged that Michaels was a prick and Bret being childish and refusing to put Shawn over was a result of Shawn earlier refusing to put Bret over. Shawn had issues with many people at the time. Bret had issues with Shawn and the clique. I'm not going to blame Bret for reacting like he did.

[@cameroncorbin6952]

Its not about the Brett or Shawn, its about the company. If you have an employee who is refusing to do business, you do it for him. Simple, really.

[@walsh9080]

Cameron Corbin it's much simpler not to book the mess in the first place. How hard would it have been to book the match so he loses to Taker? That doesn't interfere with the Taker/ Kane storyline. In fact it would mean when Kane interfered at the Rumble he cost Taker the championship. Fuck you don't want him to hold it that long have him lose the next night on Raw. Bret respected Taker. Its entirely WWE fault for booking the match. They replaced Michaels at No Way Out the next year due to injury despite him being advertised for the main event. Easily could have used the same story here. Even Cornette said they shouldn't have booked it in the first place.

[@joshyg4260]

Adam Pacitti's last appearance was December 30th, 2015.

[@SwaxMain4u]

firing someone for assaulting someone is pretty reasonable...

[@Humorless_Wokescold]

smacking a racist piss stain is pretty reasonable.

[@SwaxMain4u]

Julian Francisco No, it isn't. It's childish as hell.

[@Humorless_Wokescold]

xXFlamingPandaXx nah. Don't talk shit if you're not ok fighting it out. If you want to be supid be stupid into your diary not to someone's face.

[@FatalExistence]

How is slapping some sense into someone "childish" i get we live in a puss like generation in america but if you want to be reasonable sometimes a good smack is all you need which is part of the reason he was rehired.

[@jovauhngarcia5414]

Pleasantly surprised that you mentioned the Pepsi Center booking. That's usually brushed under the rug.

[@KSIGlobalXD]

Honestly Adam, a couple times I couldn't keep up with your speaking. You should slow down just a tid bit.

[@wehttam2995]

To be fair with the Del Rio situation Vince was reluctant to fire Alberto. However due to Cody threatening to sue the company that was the only choice they had.

[@swinehouse]

Am I the only one who takes Vince's side about the Screwjob? If I flat out defied my boss and extorted the company id be fired and probably end up in court. Bret did screw Bret. On all the others though yeah mad as shit. He's like a tumour in WWE's brain

[@samueluy6586]

Did I just see Max Landis's Wrestling Isn't Wrestling in a WhatCulture Wrestling video? DREAM COLLABORATION BABY

[@SidB8]

I honestly don't think the Montreal Screwjob was an overreaction. If I was in Vince's shoes, I would've probably done the same thing.

[@mrspidey80]

There would've been other ways to make a transition without anyone losing face, the simplest of them having Bret vacate the title right after defeating Michaels. That's why this was an overreaction.

[@TheSilverPhoenix100]

Well there is that whole thing in 1987 when Vince basically held PPV companies hostage over them showing Starcade instead of Survivor Series

[@Y2JFAN18375]

I still honestly believe that the Montreal Screwjob was a work

[@tjarway4555]

I already did think it was faked

[@zumzum74]

+Y2JFAN18375 I can't see how it wasn't a work at this point

[@MrRiddler6]

the basketball thing was that wwe books the event months in advance and the Denver Nuggets made the playoffs that year and one of their home playoff games was scheduled to be on the same day the owner didn't want to movie the playoff game to another day so we was forced to moved it to the LA Staple Center which was the Nuggets playoff opponents that season

[@LanceUppercut78]

Wow, no Macho Man being perma banned from the WWE!? It took him being dead for 3 years before that bastard Vince finally caved on his hall of fame ban. Keeping one of your most iconic performers in history out of the company even after death is a pretty insane overreaction in my book.

[@dexenationgracey1979]

+Lance Uppercut We still don't know WHY he was banned, so the jury is still out on that one.

[@jaybeepeathree]

+Dexenation Gracey by many accounts the Randy was a bit of a psycho..

[@maximillianrexcarpediem1469]

Austin didn't refuse to job. He was mad that a match that big was on a random Raw instead of hyped up and on PPV.

[@lethal_strike]

how wwe should book adam pacitti's return

[@kingofweakstyle9262]

+Youssef A. He's gonna have a hell of a pop #PACITTICLUB
