The Mr. McMahon reaction meme stems from a comedic WWE segment where Vince McMahon reacts with increasing levels of excitement while watching a video of wrestler Stacy Keibler. The template typically uses four or more panels to show a progression of his facial expressions, starting with subtle interest and ending with him collapsing backward out of his chair in a state of pure ecstasy. It has become one of the internet's most versatile formats for depicting reactions to tiered upgrades, winning streaks, or increasingly impressive facts.
