Vince McMahon

Vince McMahon has had a rocky last year. The WWE Executive Chairman was charged with several allegations of se*ual misconduct by numerous women. He was also accused of misusing company funds to pay off these women in order to buy their silence. For many, this was a long time considering, stories that have surfaced in the past regarding Vince’s antics. It appears, however, that his unbecoming conduct was not limited to the women. In the past, Vince McMahon was also accused of touching a male superstar inappropriately. The story, though, may not be true, but it still remains one of the most bizarre in WWE history.

The wrestler in question is ‘Mr. Magnificent’ Kevin Kelly, who wrestled in WWE as Nailz. Interestingly, his gimmick in the WWE was that of an ex-convict, who accused the Big Boss man of abusing him during their time in prison, with him as an inmate and his opponent as the prison guard.

As the story goes, the former WWE star was unhappy with Vince McMahon over his pay for his SummerSlam bout with Virgil. They had an argument that resulted in the wrestling attacking the promoter. However, when people entered the room, Nailz gave a peculiar reason for his actions.

Former WWE Superstar, Nailz, claimed Vince McMahon touched him inappropriately

Back in 2016, Conrad Thompson and Bruce Prichard discussed the aforementioned incident on the Something to Wrestle, podcast. Prichard revealed that Vince and Nailz had an argument that was heated and loud. However, he was quick to point out that there was no se*ual harassment, and it was just Nailz screaming before lunging at Vince.

When asked about Nailz’s accusation of Vince McMahon touching him inappropriately, Prichard said that he wasn’t there, so he didn’t know. The two then concluded that this was a story one would only hear about in wrestling.

“There was no s*xual harassment or touching of any way, shape or form. It was a heated argument with Nailz doing a lot of yelling and screaming and then lunged. Choking him, kind of tumbling over. Tumbling his ass over the kettle in his chair,” Prichard said.

“The way I hear it, when people start coming in the room, he starts screaming ‘He touched my dick, he touched my dick!’ Which is just only in wrestling,” Thompson replied.

Nailz testified against Vince McMahon during the infamous steroid trial

Nailz and Vince McMahon were far from done with each other. The former WWE star took McMahon to court over the same allegations of s*xual assault before dropping all charges. The WWE patriarch also accused Nailz of extorting him for over a hundred thousand dollars before he also dropped charges.

Nailz once even claimed that Vince had arranged to have him murdered!

Nailz tried once again to get back at the WWE boss during the steroid trial. The former WWE star claimed that Vince McMahon gave steroids to his talent. However, he failed to keep a level head during the testimony and went on an angry tirade over how much he hated Vince. Ironically, this may have instead helped Vince’s case.
