Backstage News On Vince McMahon’s Reaction To LaMelo Ball Using Racial Slur On Raw

This week’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw featured some special guests as LaVar Ball and his two sons Lonzo and LaMelo appeared on the show. The trio made their way to the ring for Miz TV, and WWE officials gave all three members of the Ball family live mics, which turned out to be a decision they lived to regret.

During the segment, The Miz and LaVar Ball looked like they were about to throw down when Dean Ambrose’s music hit. LaMelo Ball then shouted, “beat that n**** ass, beat that n**** ass” through the microphone. WWE has since released the following statement saying that the line was completely unscripted, “The inappropriate language used by a guest during the ‘Miz TV’ segment was not scripted nor reflects WWE’s values.”

F4Wonline.com is reporting that “backstage was chaos” after LaMelo Ball used the racial slur. According to the report, Vince McMahon and Kevin Dunn were very unhappy when the word made it on to live TV.

You know what they say, anything can happen on live TV. But it’s probably safe to say that the Ball family won’t be returning to Raw anytime soon.

On this week’s episode of Still Real Radio we’re talking about the fallout from the Money in the Bank pay-per-view, James Ellsworth handing the briefcase to Carmella, the possibility of Samoa Joe becoming Universal Champion and more.
