4 times Kayfabe was entirely broken in WWE

#3 McMahon references the steroid scandal

Vince was acquitted of any involvement with steroids.

In the early 1990s, things looked bleak for Vince McMahon.

The boss was facing potential jail time, after being tried for allegedly giving steroids to his talent, in a highly illegal practice.

Of course, if you were watching WWF Television at the time, there was no mention of the steroid scandal on TV, as these characters focussed solely on battles between good and evil.

With that said, McMahon turned to WWF Magazine (which always stayed within the lines of kayfabe) to rebuke the scandal, having full-page notices in the magazine to deny the claims.

One can only imagine a young fan, not knowing anything about the scandal, flipping through the magazine, finding out about a very-real life problem going on.

Despite a trial that saw former Superstars testify against the boss, McMahon was acquitted by the jury and never went to prison.
