Vince McMahon, the former owner of the WWE is always in the news. No matter if he is playing an on-screen role or just managing the company off-screen. Earlier, he used to grab the attention of the media either because of his antics on TV or booking decisions.

And now, his former employees are bringing up some interesting moments of his past that are keeping him in the eyes of the media and the fans. The same happened recently when a former WWE superstar recalled the time when Vince McMahon made an unexpected mistake after the former tag team champion Lance Cade passed away.

The time when Vince McMahon made an unexpected mistake

Recently, the former WWE superstar Lance Storm brought back a story of Vince McMahon that most fans may not know about. Storm was sharing an old storyline of WWE on his social media when a fan asked him about the time when McMahon thought he had passed away.

To this, the Canadian wrestler replied that when Lance Cade passed away, Vince McMahon mistakenly thought of him (because of the same first name). Storm even mentioned that McMahon reached out to the American sports journalist Dave Meltzer and eventually realized his mistake.

Recalling the moment, Lance Storm wrote, “When Lance Cade passed away VKM mistakenly thought it was me who died and reached out to @davemeltzerWON but realized his mistake before actually talking with Dave.”

In another tweet, the 54-year wrestler teasingly said that it must have scared Vince McMahon for a particular reason.

“Perhaps Vince was scared that if I was dying an early wrestler death, the whole industry would be doomed.“, Storm continued.

The late professional wrestler Lance Cade said ‘goodbye’ to this world in 2010. At that time Lance Storm was pretty active in the professional wrestling industry. So what made Vince McMahon think that he died? Well, here’s the answer.

What is the root of this confusion?

In a previous interview, Lance Storm revealed that he was in his home country Canada when Cade left the world. He was in Ontario when Dave Meltzer called making him aware of the death of the former champion. He also told him about Vince McMahon’s confusion regarding all this.

It could be possible that since Storm was not in the country and McMahon somehow wasn’t able to reach him, so he came to the conclusion of his death. However, he resolved the confusion before it took a bizarre turn.

If we talk about the current scenario, then Vince McMahon has lightened his burden of work by selling the WWE to Endeavor. And about Lance Storm, even though he has been away from the in-ring action for quite a while, still he has been serving the professional wrestling industry by managing his wrestling school in Canada.
