5 Times WWE Superstars flipped off a crowd

#1. Vince McMahon - Flipped off WWE crowd while playing the crooked referee

It's good to be the boss for Vince McMahon - he can do whatever he wants in WWE. It was early 2016 and Roman Reigns was the WWE Champion feuding with previous-holder Sheamus.

Given that Roman Reigns wasn't getting the fan reception that WWE wanted, Vince McMahon decided to take matters into his own hands. Whenever Vince McMahon feuds with a superstar on WWE television, it's clear that he intends to elevate them by being the biggest heel possible.

He did just that and it helped Roman Reigns get cheered when he won the WWE Championship for the second time in late 2015. On the first RAW of 2016, Roman Reigns defended the WWE title against Sheamus with Vince McMahon as the special guest referee.

Vince McMahon played the crooked referee and had a moment where he flipped off the crowd while "covering" it with his other hand. Unfortunately for the Chairman of WWE, it was quite obvious what he did and the camera angle showed it directly.
