#1 Vince McMahon and Kofi Kingston had a real life altercation on a plane
Trending
Looking at his track record, Vince McMahon loves to get into action on a plane. Kurt Angle - as mentioned earlier - and now Kofi Kingston. This particular incident happened during the early years of Kofi's career in WWE.
On exiting the plane, Vince McMahon made a snide remark towards Kofi in regards to him getting over. "Kofi, maybe one day you'll be over." he muttered to the then-28 year old. Chris Jericho then encouraged Kofi to fight Vince over the remark.
Kofi Kingston recalled the incident in an interview with Fightful, returning to the plane to fight Vince McMahon:
"We were on the way to a press conference. As we were getting off, Vince started trying me a little bit. He's like, 'You wanna fight an old man?' I'm like, 'Whoa, what is going on? What's happening?' I got kicked off the plane because I wouldn't fight him. 'Uhhhh, okay.' Jericho did come down and he said I had to go back up there, because in this weird world of wrestling, this is how you had to get respect. I'm like, 'Uhhh, okay, I guess I'll go up there and try to fight my boss.' We get up there and we start going back and forth. All of a sudden, I got double legged on the plane. I'm like, 'Oh my God, we're really fighting.' This is crazy." Kofi Kingston said. (h/t Fightful)
All in all, Kofi reportedly earned a lot of respect from Vince, and of course, Kingston is now one of the company's long-term standing performers and a former WWE Champion.
