Shane McMahon is the daredevil of the WWE. Risking his life every time he steps into the squared circle in the name of entertainment.
Shane McMahon isn't a professorial wrestler by any means, so he makes up for this by producing insane bumps. From jumping off titantrons to leaping off the top of a steel cage, Shane has done it all.
He has done this so much that we can produce a ranked list of his craziest bumps and that is exactly what we have decided to do. So let's look back at the crazy stunts Shane McMahon has produced over his career and rank them from worst to best.
10 Coast to Coast onto Vince McMahon (Wrestlemania 17)
Neither men are pro wrestlers so this match wasn't going to be a technical masterclass. Therefore, they made up for this by taking crazy bumps and putting on a show. Good old Shane-O-Mac loves a good Coast to Coast using it on a variety of superstars throughout the years.
However, this one onto his father was picture perfect. Pulling out all the stops at Wrestlemania. Shane leapt from one end of the ring from the ropes gliding feet first into a trash can which. went straight into Vince McMahon's face. It was excellent.
9 Superplexed Off a Ladder Through Two Tables (Saturday Nights Main Event 2006)
Before teaming up with his father against Shawn Michaels and "God".... yes, that is still baffling. On Saturday Nights Main Event, Shane and Shawn faced off in a Street Fight match in the main event.
The most brutal bump of the night came from the top of a ladder. Shawn and Shane were fighting atop a ladder with two tables placed below outside the ring. This, of course, led to Shawn superplexing Shane from the ladder through both tables. It looked absolutely painful but an amazing visual.
8 Top Rope Elbow Drop Onto Undertaker (Raw, March 28th 2016)
This feud between Shane and Undertaker included some insane bumps which will be spoke about later on. Shane has performed many an elbow drop over his daredevil of a career. However, this one is the pick of the bunch. Diving from the top rope and catching major air with Taker on the other end of the announce table.
Furthermore, doing this huge leap with jeans on is no mean feat. All in all, leaping from the top rope and crashing through the announce table is a crazy thing to do. It built the feud up and made people anticipate what Shane was going to pull out at Wrestlemania with the stakes raised.
7 Shooting Star Press Onto A Trash Can (King Of The Ring 2001)
Kurt Angle has been involved in two infamous Shooting Star Press moves in the WWE. This one and the botch with Brock Lesnar come to mind.
A Shooting Star Press is one of the toughest moves to produce. Many wrestlers can't execute it so it was a shock when Shane aced it here. It looked like Shane froze in the air he performed it that well. Alas, it ended in pain as Angle dove out the way and Shane went face-first into a trash can.
6 Leaping From The Top Of An Ambulance (Survivor Series 2003)
The Feud between Shane and Kane was absolutely insane. From electrocuting private parts to tombstoning old women, it was full of crazy stunts and bumps. This culminated in an ambulance match at Survivor Series. This match involved kendo sticks, steel steps and being launched into an SUV.
However, the craziest part of the night came when Shane trapped Kane under steel stairs and laid a trash can onto his face. He then climbed onto the top of the ambulance and leapt from atop the vehicle. Performing a modified coast-to-coast in the process and smashing feet first into the trash can.
5 Leaping From Hell In A Cell (Hell In A Cell 2017)
The fact this ranks 5th shows just how insane Shane truly is. He was in an intense feud with Kevin Owens with resulted in this Hell In A Cell match back in 2017. Everyone expected to see a classic Shane bump but no one thought it would be this death-defying.
Laying Owens onto the announce table, Shane climbed to the top of the steel cage. He then proceeded to leap off the top of the structure and straight through the announce table after Zayn moved Owens away from danger. The impact was that powerful that Shane bounced up from the table on impact. Ouch.
4 Suplexed Onto Glass And Hard Concrete Over and Over (King Of The Ring 2001)
Watching this back makes you feel nauseous it's that bad. Kurt Angle was meant to suplex Shane through the glass pane but instead, the glass didn't give in and Shane fell headfirst onto the hard concrete floor. You'd think they would stop there after that botch. Oh no, Kurt picks Shane back up and this time smashes him through the glass pane.
After this, Shane proved he is immensely tough but also insane. As Angle then tried to suplex Shane through another glass panel only for it not to break again and again. Until a beaten up and surely concussed. Shane was just straight up thrown into the glass like a ragdoll.
3 Falling From The Titantron (Summerslam 2000)
We are heading into the straight-up dangerous territory now. Defending the Hardcore title against Steve Blackman at Summerslam 2000 which of course meant the match would obviously be Hardcore. Shane-O-Mac took the hardcore meaning a little too seriously as he climbed on top of the titantron to try and escape Blackman.
Fans in attendance and watching live were on the edge of their seats as Shane and Blackman fought in mid-air. This culminated in Shane taking one too many kendo stick hits resulting in him falling from atop the titantron and collapsing into the debris on the floor below.
2 Shane Jumps Off The Titantron (Backlash 2001)
Shane has fallen off the top of a titantron twice in the space of a year. Taking on Big Show in a Last Man Standing match with help from Test. As with every Shane McMahon match the action spilled onto the outside of the ring and toward the entrance ramp.
Shane and Test laid out Big Show and Shane then claimed to the top of the titantron whilst Test held Big Show down on to the floor below. Shane then somehow mustered up the courage to leap off the top and come crashing down onto Big Show at the bottom. Utterly insane.
1 Elbow Drop From The Top Of Hell In A Cell (Wrestlemania 32)
Shane did a similar thing with Kevin Owens but the circumstances are different. For starters, Shane hadn't wrestled for nigh on 10 years let alone perform this insane bump. However, that is exactly what this wrestler did on the grandest stage of them all.
Both ageing men put on a brutal match up inside the cell. However, the action spilled outside the structure with Shane laying Taker on an announce table and climbing the enormous structure. He then pulled off the unthinkable as the prayed and then leap off the top of the cell and straight through the announce table with Taker moving out the way.
