WWE news: Vince McMahon FURIOUS with Smackdown star after Backlash
BIG CASS has reportedly landed himself in hot water due to his actions before Backlash and infuriated Vince McMahon.
The ex-NXT star was involved in a segment with a Daniel Bryan impersonator on Smackdown before last week’s Pay-Per-View show.
Big Cass was instructed to hit the person of short stature with a Big Boot and then walk out of the ring.
However, the 7ft star thought it would be better to carry on with a beatdown after kicking the imposter in the face and even pitched the idea to McMahon.
The WWE Chairman and CEO turned down his suggestion and instructed him to do what he was initially told.

Nevertheless, Big Cass ignored the instructions and went off-script with a series of punches to his fallen foe after hitting him with a Big Boot.
According to Give Me Sport, that angered McMahon and various other backstage officials.
Big Cass lost convincingly to Bryan at Backlash after quickly tapping out to the YES Lock.

The 30-year-old then carried out a savage attack on the YES Man immediately after the match but didn’t feature on Smackdown last Tuesday.
Bryan might continue his feud with Cass after losing a Money in the Bank qualifying match to Rusev on Smackdown.
However, it all depends on Cass’ status within the company.
