Vegeta has one of the best character arcs in anime history. The Prince of All Saiyans started out as one of the most evil characters in Dragon Ballbefore becoming aware and slowly becoming a hero worthy enough to rival Goku who Dragon Ball Supers true protagonist. Vegeta has put a lot of time and effort into redeeming himself and trying to make up for the sins of his past. Doing so has not only made him a better person, but a stronger warrior.
As good a person as Vegeta has become Dragon Ball Supers main timeline, the same cannot be said for other versions of Vegeta across the multiverse. Depending on the timeline, Vegeta has a bad habit of becoming possessed by dark forces that reconnect him with his evil past – and extreme power. The most evil versions of Vegeta are so powerful that they can perform fateful feats Dragon Ball multiverse in real danger.

Venyu (Ginyu-Vegeta) leads the Venyu Force and defeats Goku in an alternate timeline
Dragon Ball Xenoverse
In one of the corrupted timelines from Dragon Ball XenoverseCaptain Ginyu ends up switching bodies with Vegeta before he can kill Guldo. Now in Vegeta's body calling himself “Venyu”, Ginyu-Vegeta successfully kills Gohan, Krillin and Vegeta trapped in Captain Ginyu's body before Goku's arrival. Once Goku gets to Namek, Venyu has the Ginyu Force rush Goku and distract him long enough for Ginyu to switch bodies with Goku.
Ginyu-Goku then kills the real Goku (trapped in Vegeta's body) with a Kamehameha. Interestingly, Ginyu-Goku shouldn't have been able to kill Goku-Vegeta. Vegeta has a naturally higher power level than Goku has, and Dragon Ball Z shows that Ginyu has no way to use Goku's full power. To fix the timeline, the Time Patrol sends the Future Warrior to just before Ginyu switches bodies with Vegeta to make things right.

Majin Vegeta gave up his pride for one last battle with Goku
Dragon Ball Manga and Dragon Ball Z
Essentially Dragon Ball Timeline Vegeta experiences something of a mid-life crisis during the Majin Buu Saga. When the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament has been disbanded and Vegeta realizes that Goku has gotten very stronger than him when he trains in the other world he begins to spiral mentally, which Babidi hones in on. Babidi uses his Manipulation Sorcery to awaken the evil in Vegeta's heart, giving him a massive power boost and transforming him into one of his Majin warriors.
Unfortunately for Babidi, Vegeta is so powerful, his spell does nothing but give him a buff. Majin Vegeta is as strong as Super Saiyan 2 Goku when he fights at full power. The energy from Goku and Majin Vegeta's fight is also so overwhelming that they end up reviving Majin Buu way ahead of schedule. By all accounts, the power Vegeta gains from turning into a Majin is permanent, as he is strong enough to hold his own against Kid Buu at the end of DBZ – something that would have killed him at the beginning of the arc.

Clone Vegeta was created by Android 21
Dragon Ball FighterZ
IN Dragon Ball FighterZAndroid 21 uses cells she secretly collected from the Z-Fighters to mass produce clones of Earth's greatest warriors. Android 21's clones are flawed, mindless recreations whose true strength comes from their sheer numbers. Most of her clones are inferior to their hosts, which is very much the case with Clone Vegeta.
Clone Vegeta is based on Vegeta's power level after the end of the Majin Buu Saga, making him marginally stronger than Majin Vegeta was, but weaker than Canon Vegeta during the events of Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods. Clone Vegeta has all of the normal Vegeta's abilities and transformations, making him a real threat against the weaker Z-Fighters.

Copy-Vegeta has all of Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta's powers
Dragon Ball Super Anime
The Dragon Ball Super anime has a filler arc between Tournament of Destroyers and Goku Black Sagas. The Copy-Vegeta Saga takes place on Planet Potaufeu, where the bioweapon Commeson takes control of Vegeta and creates a perfect replica that slowly saps Vegeta's life force.
Copy-Vegeta is just as strong as Vegeta was at the end of the Tournament of Destroyers, and can even use Super Saiyan Blue. Super Saiyan Blue Copy-Vegeta proves to be a perfect match for Super Saiyan Blue Goku, as Goku struggles to gain an edge over his opponent. In the end, Goku only defeats Copy-Vegeta because Monaka accidentally steps on Commeson, lowering Copy-Vegeta's guard enough for Goku to sneak in a killing blow.

Baby Vegeta is one of the strongest villains in the franchise
Dragon Ball GT
Baby is an artificial Tuffle created by Dr. Myuu to take revenge on the Saiyan race for wiping out the Tuffles in the Saiyan-Tuffle War. After being awakened in the Black Star Dragon Ball Saga, Baby heads to Planet Earth where he begins to systematically take over all of humanity – as well as Earth's strongest Saiyans. Bringing Gohan and Goten under his control, Baby turns his sights on Vegeta, whom he overwhelms and makes his host body.
Using Vegeta's body as a base, Baby Vegeta is extremely powerful. In his strongest Form 2 state, Baby Vegeta completely overpowers Super Saiyan 3 Goku, forcing him to find a way to unlock Super Saiyan 4. Even as a Super Saiyan 4, Baby Vegeta is able to surpass Goku by transforming into a golden great ape. Goku ultimately wins by absorbing Ki from his fellow Saiyans and using Super Full Power Saiyan 4 to kill Baby once and for all. At full power, Baby Vegeta is easily one of the strongest characters in Dragon Ball GT.

The Black Masked Saiyan is one of the most powerful time breakers in the multiverse
Super Dragon Ball Heroes
Xeno Vegeta is not normally stronger than CC Vegeta due to the latter coming from a universe where he and Goku experienced almost all the movies and series in Dragon Ball timeline, but Oren Vegeta cannot use Capsule Corp. Vegeta's full power despite being extremely strong. In a straight fight, Xeno Vegeta would defeat Oren Vegeta, especially in his Black Masked Saiyan form.
The Black-Masked Saiyan is a version of Xeno Vegeta that has been given a Tiem Breaker Mask, forcing him to act against his will against the Time Patrol. The Black Masked Saiyan is strong enough where he can fight Xeno Goku, Xeno Trunks and Beat at the same time. Because Xeno Vegeta comes from a timeline where some version of Dragon Ball GT happened, he also has access to the strongest Super Saiyan 4 forms.
