WWE has managed to keep entertaining the fans amidst the coronavirus pandemic, at a time when several other businesses and sporting activities have shut down. WrestleMania 36 was held at the WWE Performance Center this year without an audience, in a first.

Now, WWE will present the two Money in the Bank Ladder Matches from the WWE Headquarters for the first time in history.

The PPV is going to stream on May 10, and fans can't wait to see what WWE has in store for them when Superstars engage in a battle inside the corporate offices. The Superstars will begin on at the ground floor, and make their way to the top, where the briefcases would be kept.

In light of this exciting scenario, let's take a look at the 5 wildest incidents that happened inside the WWE HQ.


#5 Vince McMahon prepares for Stone Cold Steve Austin

Back when the Attitude Era was at its peak, Vince McMahon was hell-bent on putting Stone Cold down once and for all. Austin had won the main event of WrestleMania 14 a year ago, and Vince didn't want it to happen again.

The Road to Royal Rumble saw Vince inserting himself into the match at #30, but it was changed to #2 by Commissioner Shawn Michaels. Shane McMahon began prepping up his father for the showdown with Austin at the Royal Rumble, as The Rattlesnake was entering in at #1.

The duo trained hard for a good while, with much of the training taking place inside the WWE HQ. The entire training segment seemed like a hilarious parody of the movie Rocky, where Sylvester Stallone could be seen training for his big match. McMahon's training paid off big time as he ended up winning the annual free-for-all with some help from The Rock.

#4 R-Truth loses the WWE 24/7 title

The WWE 24/7 title was introduced around a year ago and gave the company a huge number of YouTube views over the next few months. R-Truth was the at the center of all the action for the most part and is a 35-time WWE 24/7 Champion at the moment. Truth has won and lost the title belt at some of the most interesting and strange places, including a wedding hall and a moving plane.

Back in November, Charly Caruso hosted a company-wide town hall meeting at the WWE Headquarters. In the midst of his speech, R-Truth decided to flee the spot and headed for the exit but ended up bumping his head on a wall in the process.

A WWE employee named Michael Giaccio decided to take advantage of the situation and pinned an unconscious Truth to win the WWE 24/7 title. As he was talking to Charly about his surprise victory, Truth got up and chased him out of the conference hall. He won back the title on the same day.

#3 DX sends a message to Vince McMahon

Back in 2006, Vince McMahon and his son Shane did everything in their power to make Shawn Michaels' life a living hell. When McMahon targeted Triple H, things got interesting very quickly, leading to one of the most awaited reunions of all time. Michaels and Triple H reunited on an episode of RAW when The Heart Break Kid saved The Game from The Spirit Squad.

Over the next few months, DX feuded with the McMahons, with the rivalry culminating in a 3-on-2 Handicap Hell In A Cell match at Unforgiven 2006. At one point during the rivalry, DX invaded the WWE HQ and sprayed the faction's logo right on the front part of the corporate office.

The duo talked about leaving a mark on top of "Vince's world", before revealing that they had vandalized the office. As an irate Vince looked helplessly on the titantron, the arena erupted in unison at what they had just witnessed. This was just one of several antics DX pulled off on Vince at the time.

#2 Brock Lesnar destroys Triple H's office

At SummerSlam 2012, Brock Lesnar defeated Triple H in the main event of the night. The rivalry reignited on the Road to WrestleMania 29, with a rematch set for The Show of Shows. At the event, Triple H put his career on the line in a No Holds Barred match. The Game somehow managed to put The Beast down at WrestleMania, but the feud was far from over

Days before Extreme Rules, Brock Lesnar invaded the WWE HQ and made his way into Triple H's office. Lesnar also intimidated some employees on his way to the office. For the next few minutes, Lesnar wreaked havoc and destroyed Triple H's office, including a large TV screen, Triple H's World Heavyweight title, his laptop, and many other things.

On May 19, the duo met again at Extreme Rules, this time inside a steel cage. When all was said and done, Lesnar emerged victorious by hitting Triple H with a sledgehammer and executing a thunderous F5 on him.

#1 Stone Cold takes over

Back in 1999, The Undertaker kidnapped Stephanie McMahon and tried to forcefully marry her on an episode of RAW. It was revealed that he was working for a higher power. The secret entity was later revealed after Stone Cold rescued Stephanie from the clutches of the villains.

Immediately after the Higher Power storyline came to an end with Vince McMahon revealing himself as the supreme villain, Linda McMahon decided to teach him a lesson and made Stone Cold Steve Austin the CEO of WWE.

Austin takes charge:

Austin decided to change the way things worked in the corporate office immediately upon his arrival. He refused to drink coffee and asked for a cold beer instead at 10 in the morning. The Rattlesnake proceeded to fire employees for the most ridiculous reasons.

He arranged to dump a lot of cow manure in Vince's office among other antics that got on Vince's nerves. Austin lost his job as CEO in a Ladder match at King of the Ring 1999.
