VINCE MCMAHON RUMOR KILLER

There has been a story making the rounds online about Vince McMahon "losing it" at the Smackdown taping and berating the live audience about their behavior at the Liverpool Smackdown taping last night and the fans' negative reaction to the WWE Network not debuting yet in the UK.

However, as they say, the truth is something else.

What actually happened, we are told, is that Vince McMahon felt the crowd, on their second day of TV, was quiet and flat. So, he took it upon himself to go out and try to rile them up. There was no mention of the WWE Network by McMahon made and it was pretty much Mr. McMahon the character heeling the audience. Having just seen a video that was uploaded to Youtube of Vince's comments, it's obvious that he's having fun.

So, stories of McMahon "losing his cool" and attacking fans on the mic are just that...stories with no basis in reality.
