Michael Cole takes massive shot at Vince McMahon live on WWE RAW

WWE veteran Michael Cole took a shot at Vince McMahon on tonight's edition of RAW. Cole mentioned the controversial "local medical facility" term at one point during the show.

Back when the former CEO was in charge of the WWE product, he had his own set of rules that didn't sit well with the majority of the WWE Universe. One of McMahon's rules was to refer to a hospital as a "local medical facility."

After Triple H took over, most of Vince McMahon's rules were scrapped. On tonight's episode of WWE RAW, Michael Cole took a shot at Vince during Bronson Reed's destruction of The Miz. He mentioned the term "local medical facility" during the segment in a manner that seemed like a shot at the former WWE Chairman.

While Pat McAfee got hyped up after Reed broke a kendo stick in half, Cole had the following to say:

"You better sit down Pat, you may end up in the local medical facility."

Cole has been a mainstay in WWE for more than two decades at this point. He has earned the respect and admiration of the WWE Universe over the years.

The veteran commentator is set to move to SmackDown at the start of September and will call the product on the blue brand.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
