WWE owner Vince McMahon has been back on TV lately, taking part in a storyline involving Roman Reigns and The Authority’s quest to take away his WWE World Heavyweight Championship. On Monday’s RAW, McMahon was a special guest referee for that night’s main event between Sheamus and Reigns for the coveted belt. During the match’s introductions, McMahon took some time to flex his muscles, and it was a bit ... unsettling.
Vince McMahon is 70 years old and can still do nightmarish things with his pectoral muscles

— Mr. Jeeve (@wrestlingifs_) January 5, 2016 Part of what makes this unsettling is that Vince McMahon is 70 years old and he is still jacked at that age. On the one hand, that means he still works out, which is great. On the other hand ... he’s 70 years old.
Reigns won the match, after some screwjob attempts from McMahon and crew. But in a fit of anger, McMahon announced that Reigns would have to defend his title at this year’s Royal Rumble match, which 1) is the second time in Royal Rumble history that a title was up for grabs for that main event and 2) is the first time the title will be defended by someone at said match.
This is apparently what happens when you mess with a jacked, 70-year-old man that can still flex.
