Stephanie McMahon explains Vince McMahon's hatred for sneezing and nodding
Stephanie McMahon has opened up on the reasons behind Vince McMahon's apparent hatred of people who sneeze and nod in his presence.
During a recent appearance on the Bill Simmons Podcast, the Chief Brand Officer of WWE was quizzed on some of her billionaire father's more interesting quirks and pet peeves. Specifically, Stephanie went into detail on her father's issues with sneezing and nodding - two actions that Vince McMahon is known to despise.
Stephanie explained that her father is not a fan of people trying to "influence" a room by nodding. She also explained that Vince is not a fan of those who sneeze because it's an indication of people's lack of control over their own actions.
Here's what Stephanie had to say:
"He feels like (nodding) influences the room. If someone is talking and someone else is nodding, you're going to influence the room. You shouldn't influence the room. Let people think what they want to think. He hates sneezing because it's involuntary and he cannot control it. He hates sneezing. It's anyone, but especially when it's him." H/T Fightful
It's been well documented over the years that Vince McMahon carries with him some unusual opinions and quirks, including sleeping fewer than four hours a night and training in the gym at ridiculous times.
However, some have noted that Vince's commitment to his beliefs and routine goes hand-in-hand with his massive success in business.
