Shane McMahon has done things which no authority figure has any business doing. He has jumped off Cages and Cells, and every high surface in the WWE. He has done grievous bodily harm to himself along the line as well.

Not being an athlete or a permanent part of the roster, this has been immense for him.

But why is the boss' son doing something like this? He is not a premier attraction. Yet ever since returning he has had big matches in most of the big four pay-per-views. He has faced Undertaker and Kevin Owens in two Hell in a Cell matches and has been part of a WrestleMania tag team match with Daniel Bryan, as well as a Survivor Series tag match as well.

The McMahon's are no strangers to making a moment all about themselves. The fact that he is a McMahon, may be the only reason that he is competing in this match.
