Vince McMahon Returns to WWE Raw, Threatens to Fire Roman Reigns (Video)
WWE Chairman Vince McMahon returned to Raw tonight for the first time in over a year. What did he do?
In the opening segment of Raw, Stephanie McMahon and Roman Reigns traded verbal jabs. This resulted in Reigns calling the entire McMahon family a disgrace, including her father, Vince McMahon.
Stephanie then said Triple H isn’t going to fire Reigns for what he did yesterday at WWE TLC, but her father might.

Vince would walk into the ring looking as furious as ever. He sat in a chair at ringside and waited for Reigns to come out.
McMahon eventually called out Reigns to the ring and the fun began.

McMahon says Triple H is in Connecticut suffering and tells Reigns to wipe the smile off his face. He tells Reigns to apologize for what he did at WWE TLC, to which Roman shakes his head no.
Vince tells Reigns to get on his hands and knees to apologize, to which he shakes his head again. Vince says there was a time where he would have beat the apology out of Reigns, to which he smiles and shakes his head. This angers the Chairman, who gets ready for a fight.
Sheamus then comes out and says he wants the pleasure of beating an apology out of Reigns himself. He says no one should disrespect McMahon or his family. He says for Vince to allow him to challenge Reigns tonight and tells Roman to wipe the smile off his face. He brings up the wins at TLC and Survivor Series. Sheamus says he can beat Reigns anytime, anywhere and wants to put his title on the line.
Vince then asks the crowd if they want a title match tonight, to which he says there’s “no chance in hell”. Reigns then grabs the mic away and says “why not, old man?” He says Vince is 70-years-old and time is passing him by. McMahon says he’s got the match tonight and if Reigns doesn’t win the title, he’s fired. Vince finishes with a kick to the groin on Reigns.
So now we have a WWE World Heavyweight Championship match set for tonight. If Reigns loses, he gets fired.
Isn’t it great to have Vince McMahon back?
