When these lists and stories come up regarding the Kliq being hated, Waltmans name is rarely mentioned. It’s mainly Michaels that rubs people up the wrong way with HHH a close second.
Easy in the wrestling biz triple h is way way more powerful then the rock in since this is about the kliq in not Hollywood in like I said that's one opinion
Since the ushered in one of the most successful phases of professional wrestling ever... I don't think it's that bad. Grade A dickheads, but not damaging the business.
Fun fact: Nash and Hall wanted to form the klik with Bret but he refused,as he was 1 of the boys. Bret is pretty good friends with Nash and Xpac to this day as well.
What about The Undertaker's crew? The B.S.K.? They would have handed "the kliq" their asses a long time ago. Who, in their right mind would go into a fight against 'Taker, The Godwinns, Yokozuna, Rikishi, Savio Vega, Crush, and The Godfather?
As bad as the kliq was, and by all accounts they were every bit as bad as advertised, the office, namely Vince McMahon was worse to allow it to go on. It truly shows how immature, juvenile, and depraved he is/was to allow people to do all they can to ruin someone both personally and professionally and more than likely, get a good chuckle out of it. McMahon is just pathetic.
To be fair, Mabel pissed Nash off big time by doing the sit down spot on his back, and Mabel almost got fired for it, but Nash actually vouched for him and saved his job.
The Kliq tried to get Savio Vega fired because of a prank Vega did to HBK and Hall on a flight. He cut some of there mullet off and they wasn't happy, but Yokozuna at a house show in the back heard all of it and stormed at all 4 and told them what he thought
Candido was 100% correct he could have "manned up" but he would have gotten buried, and it could have affected Sunny as well, who of course he still loved. He was in a no win situation.
I can’t imagine how much testosterone and egos and shit run through that backstage... it’s surprising pretty much all wrestlers aren’t caught banging all divas willy nilly.
Taker,Yoko,Savio,Godfather alone could Have slaughtered the backstage Then you had the Godwin’s in there Many guys had Takers back also,like the Harris Brothers for example,Harris brothers almost killed Shawn Michaels in an altercation and the cliq was nowhere to be found
Michaels is a brilliant wrestler but in all honesty in today's locker room I think he'd get buried. Personally I wouldn't want my legacy to be that I was a work place bully. I don't care for this side of wrestling at all and it truly disgusts me that these men still try to justify themselves to this day. Glad the Rock and Brett didn't stand for it but let's face it these guys ruined peoples lives and enjoyed doing it. Shame on all of them.
Yeah but, women lined up to have sex with them and many guys wanted to be their friends.

Now the story of the Kliq should be featured on a future episode of Dark Side of the Ring, this information is so vital, and I'm sure even more information about their history should be put out there, it really puts a new perspective on things, and them in general.
I think an interesting topic for a video would be what would have happened in the WWF if there was no Kliq and how it would have gone differently if the Kliq wasn’t in creatives ear
That would make a great video. The Kliq were the main reason that the Attitude Era took off though 100%. The NWO wouldn’t have worked no where near as well if there was no outsiders and Michaels and HHH were made for DX. Would the product have been as edgy without those guys? I doubt it but would like to have seen how it planned out going in a different direction.
ahhh a what if scenario would be brilliant! Vader would have had a run with a tittle perhaps.. maybe Bam Bam as well. So many great wrestlers go screwed over
@@kimchi2780 nope, wrong again. Then came multiple era's after them and many more millionaires made.

@@hoax845 Seriously you ignoring the fact that these guys buried future stars and even Cena admits he did. Problem with WWE is they only make a few star and they ride them until the nostalgia wears off. Look at WWE right now. How many stars do they have under 25? Now look at AEW they have multiple stars to carry the future.
I'm amazed how Shawn Michaels was able to keep his job while being incredibly toxic (& I'm sure getting his ass whooped a few times by fellow wrestlers) yet ppl get released for lesser
@@johnnywhall9478 ehhhh idk... there were a few "over" stars (that the Kliq of course sabotaged smh) & his character before forming DX was becoming tiring like how ppl were getting tired of Hogan (him getting eliminated by Sid in the Royal Rumble & the crowd popped). Even mid card wrestlers during the Attitude Era was just as popular & entertaining
When you grew up with kayfabe and then hear the guys(cliq) talk about their real life soap opera behind or in front of closed doors. All in charge or connected to booking, I mean the cliqs fingerprints are awwwwl over the downfall of wrestling as we knew. I can admit I had fandom, but then seen a few shoots and watching a grown ass man name Nash act like a know it all C-Uhnt and proving their lives are still around, largely from stepping on many others due to their own insecurities.
Michael's, Triple H, Kevin Nash and Scott Hall are all legit legends in wrestling nowadays, but all of the stories about them are horrible. When they are interviewed or asked about these incidents, of course they will deny them. They dont want to seem like assholes to the public. Imagine how many more talents could have been made without their interference? It's just crazy.
Are you serious? Michaels has absolutely zero issues talking about how horrible of a person he was back then. As for the others, I don't really watch shoots/interviews with them, so I can't speak on their openness, but if asked Shawn doesn't sugar coat how he was.
It's stunning---ABSOLUTELY STUNNING, that every Kliq member is still alive, and all Hart Foundation members are dead, save Bret. God is clearly a comedian.
Lol it's funny those dudes all think they're badasses but shawn and co got their asses kicked all the time out in bars. Its hysterical how wrestlers really think they're so hardcore 😂😂😂
Seriously, how many "Top 10 list" ideas are left? I'm just wondering, cause in some time, there will be nothing to make a list of anymore. Other then revised lists, I guess.
I mean, he died of pneumonia from complications of a leg surgery. That's a pretty hefty jump, there. I mean... _MAYBE_ he wouldn't have ever broken his leg of he wrestled in the WWE, rather than TNA. It's not like he killed himself, my guy.
@@RandomTrinidadian sure, no doubt. Definitely not to the level that your bones become brittle or your immune system shuts down. Shawn had at best the most tangentially, barely related hand in his death possible, if he even has any influence in Chris leaving WWE. Is this some weird HBK hate or something? I mean, I get it, he's not the best person in the world, but suggesting he is in any way responsible for a death due to surgical complications is a stretch under the best circumstances.
I remember that Bam Bam said that they'd kick all their asses at the same time and he could do it too! The Kilq is the reason BBB didn't get a push after jobbing to LT at WM.
LOL. I was thinking the same thing. They could EASILY turn this into a "Top 40 stars who hated the Kliq" (and even then, that would be leaving several other wrestlers out. LOL).
Michaels accusing Bret of having an affair with Sunny - while he himself was actually having an affair with Sunny - is still one of the cruelest things I've ever heard.
I feel bad for most of the wrestlers on this list,.........but not Mabel. The end of Mabel's push wasn't because of the Kliq. It was because of karma (for all the wrestlers that Mabel badly injured).
Did Chris Candido ever once speak on his feelings toward the Klik? There's a shoot with him and Sunny where 99% of it Sunny talks, I think it's 1999-2000ish. But everything I've ever heard about Candido and the Klik came from other people. Shane Douglas, Bigelow, etc. but never Chris himself.
Chris Candido and Bret def had the right to be pissed, but a number of these guys are mad because they were essentially asked to job to much more talented and/or established Kliq members. I get the hate (kinda) but Shawn especially was so good that even sharing the ring with him in his prime is something they should have been happy to do. And Mabel/Viscera proved himself unsafe which at that size is a huge huge problem, right? There was ego problems on the other side of a lot of these examples as well, not just with the Kliq guys. Just saying.
Thank you. Anyone who feel that Candido/Douglas/Holly/etc/etc/etc/etc would ever be a main eventer in WWF/WWE seriously needs to get their head checked. The only 2 real main eventers mentioned were Bret & The Rock. Mabel killed his own push by showing how dangerous he was, Bam Bam didn't have the same following here as he did in Japan (despite the efforts, and I remember them quite vividly). Of course someone destined to stay at the mid card level (whether it's marketability, mic skills or just plain ring work) is gonna be mad at the guys at the top because they have what he doesn't.
Growing up I liked them all, but I could definitely see how the Kliq could rub people the wrong way....it seems like a high school really....I used to handle people like that and they never messed with me again....people should have just stood up to them....even if that ment a physical altercation....so you get fired.....maybe you don't and get respected instead.....if you do get fired go elsewhere
Not to defend anything the Kliq ever did. But honestly, how did PCO ever get to a point where he felt he had enough clout to argue about doing a job -- especially to the champion? We're not talking about Bret Hart here, or even some former star passed his prime. That would be about on par with Chad Gable saying he won't job for Roman Reigns.
@@zakunick1 big enough to get a win over an upper midcard or maybe even main event guy? Sure. Big enough to get a win over the champ? Not sure about that.
@@kevinfrank8164 idk. I guess I'm of the mindset that a champion -- especially a baby face champion -- should be booked strong. That means basically nothing but clean victories in one on one matches. Heel champs are similar but I'd be more flexible there, especially with clean victories. Only exception would be if you're trying to set up a No. 1 contender. And yes. I realize Vince has gone against that many times.
To be fair tho, sean Waltman was robin to triple h and micheals. I respect the 1,2,3 kid but I don’t consider him a kliq member, he was a body. I never knew if he was baby face or heel. Which if u don’t what he is, the wrestler wasn’t doing his duty. Scott hall and nash were kliq all day tho
Sometimes I think Shawn Michaels and them just get away with a lot of stuff Vince McMahon should have told triple h back in the day if you get away with this one you should have been fired back then but he didn't do it like that
I think they only one off these wrestlers that was successful through the Clique beefs is the Rock he became the face off the WWE and became the highest paid Actor Triple H and Shawn Michaels were never the faces off the company. Not only that too but the Rock is friends with that Khan guy who works for WWE on the financial end and that guy fired all off Triple H's people thus Triple H no longer running NXT like they say Karma is a bitch. Lol

Years later HHH used the curtain call in a promo saying he wasn't sorry which really angered Cornette.
Only ten? I have the sense this list could be a lot bigger.
only 10? lol I bet this warrants a part 2
The Dark Side of the Ring should do one episode on the Kliq..
I'm the only person that thinks Bob Holly has a huge overbite? Now that I've said it you can't unsee it 😁
The Kilq just needed a serious ass kicking. But guys with pull like that always go crying to the boss when confronted with physical assault.
Michaels accusing Bret of having an affair with Sunny - while he himself was actually having an affair with Sunny - is still one of the cruelest things I've ever heard.
I don't think Michaels was married at that point. Bret was.
@@irvinmorales1409 Sunny was with Candido
This makes me grateful The Undertaker and Yokozuna had the Bone Street Krew
Shane Douglas was also my favorites substitute teacher in high school. Yeah, he really didn’t care for the Kliq. ✌️👍😁
WOW I was not expecting M.O.M to be number 1...😳
Shouldn't we have '10 stars who *actually liked* the Kliq?'
I feel bad for most of the wrestlers on this list,.........but not Mabel.
The end of Mabel's push wasn't because of the Kliq. It was because of karma (for all the wrestlers that Mabel badly injured).
Only 10? I bet there were a LOT more than 10 stars who hated the Kliq! One notable omission in this video is the Mastodon, Big Van Vader.
I think Vader only had issues with Micheals and it was after the Kliq was broken up anyways.
Why did Hall, Michael’s, Hunter, Sean & Nash have so much pull back then?
Did Chris Candido ever once speak on his feelings toward the Klik? There's a shoot with him and Sunny where 99% of it Sunny talks, I think it's 1999-2000ish. But everything I've ever heard about Candido and the Klik came from other people. Shane Douglas, Bigelow, etc. but never Chris himself.
I've heard that Justin Credible was considered the 6th member, but that is almost never mentioned.
Candido had it the worse out of everyone on the list
I have tromendous respect for these legends ie Denegeration X and the Klique by Steve Irungu Jermaine
So basically everybody that wasn't in the kliq?
It’s funny seeing the rock here cause he’ll become the biggest star in the world
wonder what was takers take on the kliq
Why isn't Aldo Montoya ever mentioned with the Kliq? He was a member as well
Aka Justin Credible
Notice how they never messed with The Undertaker or Austin
Loved this list!
I feel bad for nearly all of these wrestlers, not Bob Holly though - F**k Bullies
Please livestream Ross watching England matches in euro 20
Chris Candido and Bret def had the right to be pissed, but a number of these guys are mad because they were essentially asked to job to much more talented and/or established Kliq members. I get the hate (kinda) but Shawn especially was so good that even sharing the ring with him in his prime is something they should have been happy to do.
And Mabel/Viscera proved himself unsafe which at that size is a huge huge problem, right?
There was ego problems on the other side of a lot of these examples as well, not just with the Kliq guys. Just saying.
Thank you. Anyone who feel that Candido/Douglas/Holly/etc/etc/etc/etc would ever be a main eventer in WWF/WWE seriously needs to get their head checked. The only 2 real main eventers mentioned were Bret & The Rock. Mabel killed his own push by showing how dangerous he was, Bam Bam didn't have the same following here as he did in Japan (despite the efforts, and I remember them quite vividly). Of course someone destined to stay at the mid card level (whether it's marketability, mic skills or just plain ring work) is gonna be mad at the guys at the top because they have what he doesn't.
I still don't see how Tripple H fit in with that bunch.
Really? They don't call him the master of politics for no reason
@@mohammedriadh4990, you mean master of ass-kissing? And that's not what I meant at all. He just doesn't seem to fit into that group.
Growing up I liked them all, but I could definitely see how the Kliq could rub people the wrong way....it seems like a high school really....I used to handle people like that and they never messed with me again....people should have just stood up to them....even if that ment a physical altercation....so you get fired.....maybe you don't and get respected instead.....if you do get fired go elsewhere
Not to defend anything the Kliq ever did. But honestly, how did PCO ever get to a point where he felt he had enough clout to argue about doing a job -- especially to the champion? We're not talking about Bret Hart here, or even some former star passed his prime. That would be about on par with Chad Gable saying he won't job for Roman Reigns.
I think he was big enough that you get the home town rub for a house show that won’t mean anything.
@@zakunick1 big enough to get a win over an upper midcard or maybe even main event guy? Sure. Big enough to get a win over the champ? Not sure about that.
He was a considerable star in his hometown. I think it was more he thought it was a waste to Jon him out there
@@kevinfrank8164 idk. I guess I'm of the mindset that a champion -- especially a baby face champion -- should be booked strong. That means basically nothing but clean victories in one on one matches. Heel champs are similar but I'd be more flexible there, especially with clean victories. Only exception would be if you're trying to set up a No. 1 contender. And yes. I realize Vince has gone against that many times.
Bob Holly being annoyed at other wrestlers being arseholes? Pot... kettle... black...
Of course corny is gonna be on the list I thought he'd be # 1
Vince screwed vince
The curtain call changed the business
To be fair tho, sean Waltman was robin to triple h and micheals. I respect the 1,2,3 kid but I don’t consider him a kliq member, he was a body. I never knew if he was baby face or heel. Which if u don’t what he is, the wrestler wasn’t doing his duty. Scott hall and nash were kliq all day tho
Sometimes I think Shawn Michaels and them just get away with a lot of stuff Vince McMahon should have told triple h back in the day if you get away with this one you should have been fired back then but he didn't do it like that
7:48 brilliant writing
"... in sunnier days..." BAM
U said " marines" Michaels ran into , I heard ONE soldier whipped his ass....
I think they only one off these wrestlers that was successful through the Clique beefs is the Rock he became the face off the WWE and became the highest paid Actor Triple H and Shawn Michaels were never the faces off the company. Not only that too but the Rock is friends with that Khan guy who works for WWE on the financial end and that guy fired all off Triple H's people thus Triple H no longer running NXT like they say Karma is a bitch. Lol
Pissing off Bob Holly…yeah that’s a good idea 😳.
Unpopular, but true, opinion : Kevin Nash was NOT physically strong, in relation to his co workers. He was a semi bulked up basketball player.
There's only 10?
In sunnier days was tight with Michaels lol I see what you did there
HHH isn't a great wrestler... he was good to work with the real superstars the rock, stone cold, undertaker ect
i talk about that all the time, like who ever said " my favorite wrestle is HHH" ? no one lol
Thank you! The only thing that kept him around this long was going from The Kliq to the McMahon family. He's a wrestling leech.
I was almost sure everybody hated the Kliq anyway 😂
