5 Biggest sacrifices Vince McMahon made for WWE

#2 Brutal beatdowns at the hands of WWE Superstars

Hart beats Vince down

It wasn't just Vince's family that was always ready to put their body on the line to bag ratings. Vince himself has done the same on countless occasions. Back during the Attitude Era, Austin's beatdowns on Vince always got loud reaction from the fans. Vince went on to wrestle a long string of matches and was busted open more than he could ever keep count.

At WrestleMania 19, Vince and Hulk Hogan battered each other, with the latter coming out victorious. Vince was a bloody mess when Hogan was done with him. The same story followed at WrestleMania 22, when Shawn Michaels went too far while exacting revenge on the boss, and left him in a pool of his own blood. WrestleMania 26 saw Bret Hart beating Vince down with a series of chair shots to his back, and getting back at him for what happened at Montreal 13 years ago. Vince has consistently put his body at risk to make fans watch his product.
