Trevor Murdoch is a former Tag Team Champion in WWE, but last week he was at the side of Harley Race ahead of his untimely passing and recently revealed that Vince McMahon actually helped the wrestling legend in another selfless act from the WWE Chairman.

Vince McMahon portrays a character on WWE TV where he's seen as Mr McMahon, who is a heel, but outside of the ring, there are several stories about the WWE Chairman where he's proved that he will try to protect his wrestlers as much as possible.

McMahon has been known to have paid for several different WWE Superstars' rehabs over the years as a way to help them when they're struggling through issues. It appears from this most recent report that he's always on hand when medical bills mount up as well.

What's next?

Vince McMahon hasn't been seen on WWE TV since he was punched by Roman Reigns, but even though McMahon isn't on WWE TV as often as he once was, doesn't mean he isn't still pulling the strings behind the scenes.
