Slipping a Mickey: Difference between revisions

* In 2006, when legislation was proposed to require professional wrestling organizations to test its performers for drugs, a storyline was contrived and intertwined with the Vince [[Mc Mahon]]McMahon-Shawn Michaels feud, whereby [[Mc Mahon]]McMahon's daughter Stephanie placed a powdery substance in Michaels' water bottle before his match against Shane [[Mc Mahon]]McMahon. Predictably, Michaels began to get woozy and eventually passed out from the powder's effects, leading to Shane's easy victory; Vince subsequently pinned an unconscious Michaels in an impromptu match immediately following – after which the Spirit Squad, a band of obnoxious male cheerleaders, beat down the prone Michaels.

** The storyline continued on a later episode of ''[[WWE Raw]]'', with Vince [[Mc Mahon]]McMahon attempting to drug [[Triple H]]'s water. Triple H, however, was wise to this trick and – off-camera, and unseen by the television audience – switched drinks. During the subsequent Triple H-Shane [[Mc Mahon]]McMahon match, Triple H pretended to "pass out," but when Shane turned to taunt the audience, he saw Vince begin to go into a dazed state and fall unconscious. Shane realized what had happened ... before turning to see an angry Triple H waiting to finish him off.
