5 craziest Vince McMahon stories

#3 Almost getting Kurt Angle killed

Seems like Vince McMahon almost got Kurt Angle killed during the Plane Ride From Hell

The year was 2002 and WWE had just finished up their Insurrextion pay per view in the United Kingdom. The flight was packed with Superstars, which included the likes Brock Lesnar, The Undertaker, Kurt Angle, Curt Henning, Michael Hayes, X Pac, JBL, Linda and Vince McMahon.

Now, rumor has it that a lot of superstars were drinking before the flight even took off and it wasn't long before chaos erupted. Between Lesnar's infamous fight with Henning, Michael Hayes's hair getting cut off by X-Pac, and Ric Flair flashing every stewardess in sight as he drunkenly walked down the aisle of the plane, it was disaster.

Interestingly enough, McMahon was having a wrestling match with Kurt Angle during all of this and it started with the boss hitting the Olympic gold medalist with a takedown. After a few minutes of back and forth between the two, Undertaker woke up to find his boss being attacked by Angle.

Unfortunately for Angle, Undertaker wasn't in on the fact that it wasn't real and got choked out by The Deadman until McMahon begged him to stop. If nothing else, seeing Angle wrestle McMahon to the floor of an airplane is already wild, but seeing The Undertaker choke out Angle while McMahon pleads for his life would be nothing short of insanity.
