Vince McMahon has different versions of himself, and various stories have revealed a lighter side of the WWE boss.

Chris Masters was a guest on Hannibal TV, and the former WWE Superstar revealed details of a wild flight from back in the day when the stars were traveling for a WWE Tribute to the Troops event.

Masters revealed that Vince McMahon has always had a knack of getting drunk and playfully instigating fights during such planned rides and this one was no different. Vince McMahon apparently tried to 'peer pressure' former WWE Champion CM Punk into drinking alcohol. As we all know, Punk follows a straight-edge lifestyle and he didn't give into Vince McMahon's demands.

Vince McMahon then moved on to instigate a fight between CM Punk and Carlito. Masters revealed the following about the WWE Boss' antics during the flight:

"Vince was trying to peer pressure CM Punk into having a drink and I would not really know what to do either if I was CM Punk. Maybe Vince is testing him if he can get CM Punk to break his will. That will make Vince lose respect for him or whatever, you know what I'm saying. CM Punk wouldn't drink. And eventually, it went from CM Punk drinking to 'hey, if you're such a shooter, CM Punk, How about you take on..?' I think it was first Shelton Benjamin. And after that, it was Carly (Carlito) because Carly would flirt with Maria and I'm pretty sure CM Punk and Maria were together at the time or together at that point. So, I think the boys really instigated that. Because CM was kind of annoyed with Carlito, you know, trying to mess with him and trying to mess with...you know, kind of work-flirt with Maria, not shoot-flirt with her. So, I don't even remember what happened."
