Vince McMahon is the Chairman of WWE and is also larger than life, with several stories about his peculiar behavior and tendencies that seem too bizarre to be real. McMahon also has numerous pet peeves that might not make sense to others.
While speaking on his recent episode of ‘Monday Mailbag’ on AdFreeShows, former WWE referee Mike Chioda claimed that Vince McMahon hates it when WWE Superstars break the referee’s 10-count.
Chioda added that Vince McMahon wants the referee to bring the superstar on the outside into the ring, while the other stays inside the ring.
“That’s one of Vince’s pet peeves. He hates that the most. That’s one thing that he does not like. When you roll out, just mess with the ref and roll back in. Usually, he wants someone to roll back in, in the ropes and go back out the other side. You know, especially if a wrestler or two wrestlers are outside, one comes in to break the count, he should just back off, come in the ring, get back into the center, I go back, the referee will go back through the ropes to get the other talent back in, and next thing you know, he shoots back out the other side.”
Chioda added that McMahon felt breaking the referee’s count was “old school” wrestling and that WWE removing itself from that. McMahon certainly has more pet peeves such as his hate for nodding and sneezing. It is unlikely Vince McMahon will change his ways at this point in time.
