7 WWE Superstars who Vince McMahon confronted backstage for going off-script

#1 Batista and Chris Jericho

Batista and Jericho

Batista and Chris Jericho were set to face each other in a steel cage match on RAW in 2008. This was after blading had been banned by WWE but Batista convinced Jericho to go along with him and show colour during the match.

Needless to say, Vince McMahon exploded backstage. He was so livid that he called Jericho, Batista and the referee into a meeting soon after. Batista described what happened during an interview:

"Then he starts passing out fines. So my fine was $100,000…My heart dropped. I thought it would be like $25,000…When he said $100,000, I was just heartbroken. I literally think that he sucked the life out of me that day. I think that's the day that I knew things were never going to be the same."

Batista later said that this incident played a part in him leaving the WWE.
