Vince McMahon.

Unquestionably one of the biggest names in wrestling, Vince McMahon is a lot of things to a lot of people. To some, he is the creator of wrestling as it is today and a genius of the sport. To others, he is responsible for some of the worst decisions in professional wrestling and a vindictive businessman who has destroyed careers in the pursuit of his dream.

Regardless of how you feel about the WWE CEO, it's safe to say McMahon has led an interesting life. Much of it has been documented, such as the creation of WrestleMania and the Monday Night Wars, but there are things many fans still don't know.

Here are five shocking stories involving WWE CEO Vince McMahon you probably don't know about.

#5: He fought Dracula and won

Bela Lugosi's iconic portrayal of the literary Vampire would be no match to Vincent K McMahon.

Vince McMahon has often been seen as a ruthless businessman, but it should be noted that the WWE CEO is so much more than just that. McMahon is also a father and grandfather, and like many others, would do anything for his children.

McMahon explains in his February 2001 interview with Playboy magazine, about an incident where he was telling a scary story to a young Shane McMahon, who was left too terrified to go to sleep. Fearing that Dracula, the iconic vampire of lore was in his closet, Shane asked his father to check, as McMahon explained:

"I went in that closet and started growling and yelling, having a battle. I threw a little furniture. Now Shane's really scared to death, until finally his dad walks out of the closet. I said, "Son, you never have to worry about Dracula again. Dracula's dead."
