Ever since Vince McMahon turned into an on-screen villain back in the mid to late 90s, he has had legendary rivalries with the likes of Stone Cold Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, D-Generation X, and many more. During the Attitude Era, Austin made Vince wet his pants on TV as he threatened him with a gun. Years later, D-Generation X dropped tons of waste on Vince, Shane, and The Spirit Squad on an episode of WWE RAW, in an incident that proved how far Vince was ready to go to garner ratings and publicity.
A villain getting his comeuppance is bound to get views, and Vince made a fortune based on this fact. He let himself get embarrassed on live TV on several occasions, at the hands of some of his top Superstars, and it paid off well when all was said and done. He had turned himself into possibly the most hated villain in all of wrestling, and fans didn't mind paying to see him get embarrassed by WWE's top babyfaces.

While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
