Vince McMahon has not only achieved massive success in business by creating WWE. But he has also clinched multiple in-ring accolades that were a shocker for a corporate personnel like him to achieve.
Vince McMahon would always remain one of the biggest names in the world of professional wrestling. From starting with a regional promotion and turning it into a global giant, WWE known world wide, McMahon has experienced major success as a businessman.
However, the interesting part is that a lot of that success came through Vince’s involvement as an onscreen character and occasional wrestler. Even with limited in-ring action, McMahon has an illustrious resume as an in-ring performer. This has seen him etch championships, accolades and scored wins over some of the greatest WWE superstars of all time. Here are the top four Vince McMahon WWE accolades as a wrestler:
4 Victories Against Top Stars
Vince McMahon has stepped inside the ring on multiple occasions against some of the biggest WWE superstars of all time. Not only has he competed against them, but McMahon has also scored victories over the likes of top stars like Triple H, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Bobby Lashley and The Undertaker.
3 ECW Champion
After Vince McMahon lost the Battle of the Billionaires match against Donald Trump, he engaged in a feud with his representative, ECW Champion Bobby Lashley. McMahon scheduled a 3-on-1 handicap match pitting himself, his son Shane, and Umaga against Lashley with his ECW title on the line. Lashley was not able to survive the odds and McMahon pinned him to become the new champion.
2 Royal Rumble Winner
During the 1999 Royal Rumble match, Vince McMahon and his iconic rival, Stone Cold Steve Austin started the match and were the last two men remaining. While it looked that Austin was about to win his third Rumble match, a timely distraction by The Rock led to McMahon tossing Austin over the top rope and winning the Royal Rumble match.
1 WWE Champion
On a 1999 episode of WWE SmackDown, Vince McMahon was scheduled to face Triple H for the WWE Championship. While The Game dominated McMahon for the majority of the match, he managed to pin Triple H after he was taken down by Stone Cold Steve Austin. This led to Vince pinning Triple H’s shoulders to the mat for the three count and becoming the WWE Champion in one of the most shocking moments of the company.
