Bret Hart was difficult to work with on his last 30 days of his contract. He didn't want to lay down for HBK. He had creative control. He didn't want to do business.
@@goldenwolf8081 You know what could've been diffuse? If Vince McMahon book a triple-threat match with Bret vs HBK vs Taker at Survivor Series. Taker was still involved in a feud between them. Also, he wasn't even booked for the event. Vince could've book Taker to pin either Bret or HBK to win the title. I'm sure Bret would approve it, probably as long HBK doesn't walk out with the title. Then HBK can beat Taker to win the title at the Rumble. Problem solved. Bret would've got a good send-off.
That and Stone Cold didn't want to lose to Lesnar in the 2000s because he hated WWE creative. Also he did not want to drop the Title or face Chyna for it either because he didn't like the idea.
It should also be noted that Miss Kitty had been cheating on Jerry without his knowing (with some accounts even stating that Jerry was basically the only one backstage who didn't know) and this made her extremely unpopular with the locker room.
Lawler must have a been a complete moron to not know that she was cheating on him with some of the talent in her final year with the company. The Right to Censor angle she was in was given to her basically as a favor to Lawler. It didn't last because of her rotten attitude backstage, and they were both gone soon after.
Surprisingly, Austin Aries didn't get a mention. A lot of his fellow wrestlers didn't like him or Aries didn't wanted to sell for most of his opponents. Speaking of those who rarely sell, Wrestlelamia, I'm surprised The Road Warriors didn't get a mention neither.
Ever since I heard he pretty much threatened to hold a pay per view hostage if Vince didn't pay him what he wanted, I knew he was only in it for the money.
Hogan was difficult to work with too. He's someone who doesn't like to put over other talents, especially the smaller guys. If he doesn't like the plans, he'll be like, "That doesn't work for me. Brother!"
FACTS I also heard a rumor that hogan paid the ref to count normally when he was supposed to count fast in his wcw world heavyweight championship match vs sting at wcw starrcade 1997. Now it’s just a rumor but knowing hogan it’s not that hard to believe in.
Hogan wasn't hard to work with for talent in the ring, but he was with mgmt. The office can't dictate to the biggest star ever in the business. Plenty of wrestlers have said they loved workin with Hogan. Nothing remotely dangerous in a Hogan match and a bigass payday.
@@ABIT-cb1qh Hogan was tough to work with. He originally didn't want to lay down for Sting at Starrcade '97 because he doesn't have tan, and doesn't look buff. Hogan tried to use his creative control to change the outcome, but decided to put Sting over. Vince Russo had plans for Booker T to win the WCW title at Bash at the Beach 2000, but Hogan used his creative control to have himself win the title from Jeff Jarrett, messing up Russo's plans. How about when there's stories about Hogan didn't want a rematch with HBK after Summerslam, which caused HBK to act like silly goofball, overselling in their match. Hogan can be really difficult to work with when he has a creative control clause, and would often use his politics to get he wanted.
@@ABIT-cb1qh undertaker hated working with hogan as hogan was a lying prick saying taker injured him with a tombstone which footage showed hogan was a liar plus he never once would fight bret dispite bret even calling him out once on nitro.
"Austin was hard to work with" What did he do? "Questioned WWE's famously rock solid booking choices, and advocated for matches that matched his skill and storytelling level" 😐
Another one I've heard was infamous backstage to work with was Sin Cara/Mistico. He refused to do any of the usual training and he was stated many times to have quite the attitude. This would lead to his infamous botches due to him refusing to do any training and WWE eventually just booted Mistico and gave the Sin Cara character to Hunco instead.
I've also heard that apparently Sin Cara Misticio just refused to learn English, which would've made calling spots mid-match a lot easier, and therefore reducing the number of botches.
Modesty is what makes a lot of guys. Find me bad stories about the Undertaker, other than him wanting to murder Buzz Sawyer (really kill him. Like: "Good job Mark. The rest of your life is prison!") .
@@FearedKamil (tldr after that) Technically no, Mistico started in 98 as Dr Karonte jr (his dad Dr Karonte) then in 2000 he used the same name as some of his brothers, (Argos, Argenis) in tribute to their brother who died in 2000; Astro Boy, from 2000 debut in cmll to 2004 (reusing it and Dr Karonte Jr in toryumon in 2006, he also replaced Volador jr as Komachi in Michinoku in 2003), he started using Mistico in June of 2004 and kept Mistico until he joined wwe in 2010. He used Sin Cara in indepedent shows in 2013 (shows with his brothers Argos and Argenis) and started using Myzteziz also before changing to Caristico in 2015 in CMLL, only changing to Mistico again in 2021 when Dralistico /dragon lee 1/Mistico II left cmll Meanwhile, Hunico started in September 2004 (so after Mistico changed from Astro Boy to Mistico) and used the Name incognito in his only tna match, aaa and other promotions, also using Mystico with a Y and Mistico de Juarez in 2007-2009 (cause cmll didn't want aaa to have almost the same name as theirs) and kept using it until he had a match in wwe ecw as Jorge Arias (his real name) in 2009, after that he went to FCW as Hunico, he used Hunico untill Sin Cara left wwe, using it from 2013 to 2019. in 2020 he went back to mexico, using his teacher Cinta de Oro's name. For the TLDR: Mistico used the name Mistico 3 month before Hunico debuted, Hunico used it only a few times and used Incognito more than Mystico/Mistico de Juarez
@adamclark9004 if you witnessed the reign of terror in real time you'd understand. Retaining the title in a match at WM against someone he made racist comments towards sounds made up as well, but it happened
One interesting thing about Miz and him getting kicked out of the locker room, which I’m honestly surprised that you didn’t cover and go into detail with, is that he got kicked out by Chris Benoit for eating chicken over someone’s bag. People have said it might have been Benoit’s or referee, Scott Armstrong’s, bag. Either way, how Benoit responded and reacted was completely unnecessary. Even though it was a different era where talents would get hazed and bullied by people, like Chris Benoit, JBL and Hardcore Holly, none of that would be allowed.
This hazing and bullying was unforgivable, but honestly, the dude has straight up earned every ounce of respect he has, between this hazing and the hate he got from fans early in his career.
Yeah Miz have may said or did some times, but he was pretty much bullied throughout most of his 2006 career. He even said he probably would've quit if 'Taker didn't have his back
I think the main part why no one liked The Miz is because he was coming off from MTVs The Real World and I think they thought it was a publicity stunt and his cocky attitude didn’t help either Over time he went on to pay his dues and earned everyones respect and has since been a mainstay in WWE
True, but the best thing for Miz was getting the seal of approval from the legendary Undertaker. You know you've made it if the Undertaker gives his blessing.
Bradshaw/JBL should have been on here. If he didn’t like you or you got on his bad side, he would go out of his way to make your life miserable and in some cases his bullying would come back to bite him.
@maxpayne7312 I don’t know man. Even after he took that chair shot and after he got married, wrestlers still accused of him of being a bully. For example, he supposedly picked on Mauro Ranallo because Ranallo suffers from Bipolar. JBL has even admitted there were some hurtful things that he shouldn’t have said to Ranallo.
@ I remember that, maybe it’s just part of who he is and maybe being in the NFL before joining WWE made him bully people or maybe he’s just angry by nature and takes out his anger on everyone (he is a Texan and them Texas boys love a good fight)

Not sure with orton but michaels change is what happens when you get off drugs. His drug era was killing him and opioids can make you so aggressive towards people
Anyone who remembers The Miz when he appeared on "The Real World" knows that his personality was always going to be a problem in the younger parts of his career LOL
Cause the people who dislike Punk are a vocal MINORITY. Most people have never had a problem with Punk. Those who do just don't gel with Punk's brutal honesty and those people don't like when people stand up for themselves like Punk does. Most of the big names never had beef with Punk. Undertaker, Kane, Cena, Rock, Stone Cold, Mick Foley, HBK, HHH, Paul Heyman, Paul Bearer, Jeff Hardy, Rey Mysterio, Mark Henry, Bayley, Zelena Vega are just a short list of people who never had any problem with Punk. It's aways the younger entitled people who are jealous of Punk that say he is a problem.
@wingadept8793 dude the guy has an ego and an attitude the size of Texas he think his bs doesn't stink anytime I see him getting whipped I get fuzzy inside
After all these years, HHH went from ''Extremely Difficult To Work With'' to the guy who runs the Show. As years passed by, both Randy Orton and the Miz matured a lot and has became Great Figures in the Locker-room and to the Wrestling World. What a time we live in.
Thank you for saying all of that about Sable and giving Luna Vachon her credit. Because sadly today, alot of people don't. They just think Sable belong in the HOF. And she doesn't.
It wasn’t karma, no even better. It was a wake up call. His hurt back gave him time to fix his life. His back injury may have seemingly ended his career at the time, but it saved his life and career
Thinking back on Enzo... man... what a huge waste! And that is all on him. He was great on the mic. He just needed to keep his ego and backstage personality in check, and with some time and effort he could get his in ring work improved and polished, as that should have been his focus. And after some time, he could have been pushed to the moon like he thought he deserved. But it goes to show how bad his IRL personality was, considering he never made serious effort to get back his career (grinding the indies and humbling himself), and despite his charisma, no other major company wanted to work with him.
Make a part 2 on this article. There's also other wrestlers like Melina, Randy Savage, CM Punk, Alberto del Rio that people and other wrestlers had beef with thes guys and were difficult to work
You're leaving out why Austin didn't want to work with Mero, Mero had just been powerbombed by Sable. If I remember the story Austin called them and said something along the lines of "So who am I going to be working with? Because the guy that I'm booked with just got powerbombed by a 120lb woman on national television." 😂. I also don't blame him for walking out over the Lesnar program, Austin and Lesnar should have been a pay per view match at the very least.
@khesipresents1885 no it wasn't, but welcome to the wrestling business cupcake that's how it went, more than half of the people in it were scumbags. He also beat his wife too while you're over there reaching for your Kleenex box over a man you don't know. I never said that he was a saint, I never said that he didn't do anything else, but in these cases he had a point. Besides his reputation back stage while known for being stubborn, is not a bad one.
@khesipresents1885 Look cupcake I never said that he was a saint, that was just how the business was. Most of them were scumbags and you had to be firm to watch your own spot. Still his reputation backstage is not a bad one. Everyone politicked, and in the cases that I just brought up I feel that he was justified.
Why is the miz even on this list? This list is wrestlers who were extremely hard to work with not wrestlers who were disliked backstage at one point because of a dumb reason
Miz walked into WWE with an unearned position because he won a gameshow. Meanwhile, there were guys on the roster who went thru hell to climb to the top and poured decades of their lives into wrestling. Miz's undeserving presence, cockiness, and pretty boy looks offended many people as a result. His entire character for close to 20 years now is a very self-involved, whiny douche. Miz is also an unremarkable, uninteresting wrestler who's too conservative in the ring and deliberately avoids taking bumps. He works hard, but there's absolutely nothing remarkable about him. He was world champ at a time when WWE was hurting for talent and didn't have a lot of top tier stars. He belongs in the upper-mid card on his best day. A few years before or after his world title run? He never would've even been considered. I know I may be in the minority, but there's just SOMETHING that I can't stand about The Miz. Not sure what it is, but something about him makes him incredibly unlikeable.
The most unlikely to ever get an executive role.. Shawn Michaels. The irony in this is eye opening given how much of a jerk he really was behind the scenes.
no dude, that's cheap PR. he still a crackhead just look at him lol my father is 69 and looks WAY younger. My father never used drugs, your boy does... 😉🍻
Nah Shawn's win over Bulldog for the European title was good cause it was so unexpected and gave DX all kinds of heat they needed to keep them as top heels.
I saw the interview the Kat edit with Ring the Belle and I want to know the reason that people backstage found her difficult to work with, but I'm not surprised to see that Sable is on this list
I've always loved The Miz, thank goodness the locker room realized he wasn't acting like an asshole and stopped being hostile to him. I remember some forum and Reddit comments saying they were even able to find and get his autograph back when he was forced to change in the public bathroom.
Glad most of them grew up and changed for the better. Even though they're not wrestling anymore. Sad it screw up many good wrestlers, some of them died in result.
Wow. You'd think considering what happened to Austin in WCW and being forced to play in the shitbox with the ECW freaks, that he would have been more humble.
Shawn Michaels did what he had to do to stay in the WWE and he's better off now than what he was like in the 90s. He now runs NXT, and very well at that.
I’m glad to see that Triple H and HBK are way different now, considering they are running the company. Even prouder that Randy Orton has cooled off and no longer considered to be the d-bag he once was.
Yeah but who are we to demand them to change when we are no better? I'm not defending them at all, I don't like What Shawn Michaels and Triple H at all, but we can't speak like we are blameless.
Hey yo . . . One of the benefits of Evolution . . . of Hunter working closely with Ric Flair for years, is Flair taught Hunter how to avoid mistakes and pitfalls as the booker. We can talk about Ric Flair bookings . . . that guy made mistakes. But he's a champ, and so is Hunter. So kid, don't make the same mistakes I made. Which are the following . . . Lesson 1, lesson 2, lesson 3, etc. Hunter learned and I think he runs a good book. Focused on wrestling. No hokey, marriage bull crap or childish stories. Wrestling. Period. Hunter is booking wrestling. I like that.

Anyone who remembers The Miz when he appeared on "The Real World" knows that his personality was always going to be a problem in the younger parts of his career LOL
This list isn’t gonna work for me, brother unless Hogan is on it
Surprised Chyna wasn't mentioned
To be fair Chyna was only difficult towards the end of her WWF run where she believed she was as big as a star as Rock or Austin lmao
Kinda surprised CM Punk isn’t here, I love Punk but considering how controversial he is I would’ve expected him to be here
I don't think he was difficult to work with, it's just he had issues with upper management.
@ Oh right, true
Cause the people who dislike Punk are a vocal MINORITY. Most people have never had a problem with Punk. Those who do just don't gel with Punk's brutal honesty and those people don't like when people stand up for themselves like Punk does. Most of the big names never had beef with Punk. Undertaker, Kane, Cena, Rock, Stone Cold, Mick Foley, HBK, HHH, Paul Heyman, Paul Bearer, Jeff Hardy, Rey Mysterio, Mark Henry, Bayley, Zelena Vega are just a short list of people who never had any problem with Punk. It's aways the younger entitled people who are jealous of Punk that say he is a problem.
@@ItApproachesWhen you name guys like Hardy and HHH, I can’t tell if you’re joking or not
@wingadept8793 dude the guy has an ego and an attitude the size of Texas he think his bs doesn't stink anytime I see him getting whipped I get fuzzy inside
Nice dude
After all these years, HHH went from ''Extremely Difficult To Work With'' to the guy who runs the Show. As years passed by, both Randy Orton and the Miz matured a lot and has became Great Figures in the Locker-room and to the Wrestling World. What a time we live in.
Clicked for Sable thumbnail and stayed for the *content*
Thank you for saying all of that about Sable and giving Luna Vachon her credit. Because sadly today, alot of people don't. They just think Sable belong in the HOF. And she doesn't.
Luna and Jackie definitely both should have gotten more recognition than Sable did
Lord knows how much I wanted Sable as a kid growing up 🤤
Brock Lesnar: …
@@Soldout360Marc Mero:😡😡😡
She's had work done. Looks like she's been stung by a dozen wasps now
@@Soldout360 don’t F5 me 👀
@@Njpro eben though she didn't even need it
I'm glad I have my copy of the ultimate warrior dvd
It’s a great one, isn’t it?
Goldberg and JBL need to be on thia list
4:44 But Sable certainly could work with Torrie Wilson.
I see what you did there, fellow man of culture.
As a die hard Shawn Michaels fan Shawn getting the back injury was karma for everything he did backstage
It wasn’t karma, no even better. It was a wake up call. His hurt back gave him time to fix his life. His back injury may have seemingly ended his career at the time, but it saved his life and career
Russo made David Arquette WCW champion, need I say more😂
Triple H was the reason RAW got downfall & not worth watching in 2000s in his Reign of Terror days
Thinking back on Enzo... man... what a huge waste! And that is all on him.
He was great on the mic. He just needed to keep his ego and backstage personality in check, and with some time and effort he could get his in ring work improved and polished, as that should have been his focus. And after some time, he could have been pushed to the moon like he thought he deserved.
But it goes to show how bad his IRL personality was, considering he never made serious effort to get back his career (grinding the indies and humbling himself), and despite his charisma, no other major company wanted to work with him.
Macho didn't play about Elizabeth
Success gets almost everyone. The Kat thought being The Kings wife made her untouchable and she try to use that as leverage
I swear everytime I watch these videos This is just a List of Complaints
I even remember when undertaker taped his fist backstage in case shawn michaels refused to put over austin
A Texan to Texan talk about another Texan.
Funniest part is always how "haych bee kay" came on your face.
Never expected Miz in the list😂
Only at the beginning of his career
@@pedromatias7608Miz is an acquired taste. The longer you're exposed to him, the more you realize his awesome.
Make a part 2 on this article. There's also other wrestlers like Melina, Randy Savage, CM Punk, Alberto del Rio that people and other wrestlers had beef with thes guys and were difficult to work
Great video
Wrestlelamia making money off Sable thumbnails again lol
I don’t blame anyone from the women’s division back during the “divas era” this includes The Kat, because many of them didn’t like doing that stuff.
Miz title run was underrated. He was great
Enzo Amore had potential to be single star
You're leaving out why Austin didn't want to work with Mero, Mero had just been powerbombed by Sable. If I remember the story Austin called them and said something along the lines of "So who am I going to be working with? Because the guy that I'm booked with just got powerbombed by a 120lb woman on national television." 😂. I also don't blame him for walking out over the Lesnar program, Austin and Lesnar should have been a pay per view match at the very least.
That wasn't his only backstage incident though....or you're just that much of a Austin fan ..
@khesipresents1885 no it wasn't, but welcome to the wrestling business cupcake that's how it went, more than half of the people in it were scumbags. He also beat his wife too while you're over there reaching for your Kleenex box over a man you don't know. I never said that he was a saint, I never said that he didn't do anything else, but in these cases he had a point. Besides his reputation back stage while known for being stubborn, is not a bad one.
@khesipresents1885 Look cupcake I never said that he was a saint, that was just how the business was. Most of them were scumbags and you had to be firm to watch your own spot. Still his reputation backstage is not a bad one. Everyone politicked, and in the cases that I just brought up I feel that he was justified.
Why is the miz even on this list? This list is wrestlers who were extremely hard to work with not wrestlers who were disliked backstage at one point because of a dumb reason
Miz walked into WWE with an unearned position because he won a gameshow. Meanwhile, there were guys on the roster who went thru hell to climb to the top and poured decades of their lives into wrestling. Miz's undeserving presence, cockiness, and pretty boy looks offended many people as a result. His entire character for close to 20 years now is a very self-involved, whiny douche.
Miz is also an unremarkable, uninteresting wrestler who's too conservative in the ring and deliberately avoids taking bumps. He works hard, but there's absolutely nothing remarkable about him. He was world champ at a time when WWE was hurting for talent and didn't have a lot of top tier stars. He belongs in the upper-mid card on his best day. A few years before or after his world title run? He never would've even been considered.
I know I may be in the minority, but there's just SOMETHING that I can't stand about The Miz. Not sure what it is, but something about him makes him incredibly unlikeable.
HBK being at the top makes sense, but with what they did, Warrior and Sable really should've been bumped up to 2 and 3 respectively.
Dont forget Miz was famous before he got to the WWE, so it makes sense he'd already have a bit of an ego.
2:54 3:17 3:41 5:00 6:28 7:22 8:27 9:29
Thanks
The most unlikely to ever get an executive role.. Shawn Michaels. The irony in this is eye opening given how much of a jerk he really was behind the scenes.
Damn Triple H Delaying the Push from Jeff hardy :( My fav wrestler growing up!
Shawn Michaels’ problems didn’t magically disappear, he credits that to becoming a Christian and forming a relationship with God.
no dude, that's cheap PR.
he still a crackhead just look at him lol my father is 69 and looks WAY younger. My father never used drugs, your boy does... 😉🍻
Miz has the best story on this list. I love the guy in and out of the ring, a real guy.
3:43 That was weird lol Hunter looked at Miz's head, ignored then went for a handshake. Ended successfully though lol
Randy Orton is legend
I am glad that the Hulkster handily beat his old former pal from the Rockers.
I’ve got a copy of the self destruction of the ultimate warrior
Nah Shawn's win over Bulldog for the European title was good cause it was so unexpected and gave DX all kinds of heat they needed to keep them as top heels.
I saw the interview the Kat edit with Ring the Belle and I want to know the reason that people backstage found her difficult to work with, but I'm not surprised to see that Sable is on this list
So I guess flashing Hogan in the beginning was his mention, how the hell he's not on here is amazing
Surprised that the number one fan of puppies ended up with a Cat. 😂
I've always loved The Miz, thank goodness the locker room realized he wasn't acting like an asshole and stopped being hostile to him. I remember some forum and Reddit comments saying they were even able to find and get his autograph back when he was forced to change in the public bathroom.
Even though the MIZ was hated so much backstage he has now worked for so many years in the company.
Triple H pushing Jeff Hardy and RVD was smart. Those 2 were so over it was ridiculous.
I absolutely love the MIZ‼️‼️‼️👏🏾👏🏾❤️
Raw Netflix stole your logo 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Glad most of them grew up and changed for the better.
Even though they're not wrestling anymore.
Sad it screw up many good wrestlers, some of them died in result.
Buff Bagwell was WCW legend
Dude could have been a huge star for WWE. Too bad his bullying attitude along with that horrible match he had with Booker T on Raw ruined his career.
Wow. You'd think considering what happened to Austin in WCW and being forced to play in the shitbox with the ECW freaks, that he would have been more humble.
6:22 it's not very hard to find. It wasn't released at all
I Agree with Shawn Michaels at number 1. And you forgot to mentioned the fight he had backstage with Bret hart.
Shawn Michaels did what he had to do to stay in the WWE and he's better off now than what he was like in the 90s. He now runs NXT, and very well at that.
Just say you're his fan and his bad attitude doesn't matter to you
Hogan was booked to be on this list but he used his creative control to say "That doesn't work for me Brother"
I’m glad to see that Triple H and HBK are way different now, considering they are running the company. Even prouder that Randy Orton has cooled off and no longer considered to be the d-bag he once was.
Yeah but who are we to demand them to change when we are no better? I'm not defending them at all, I don't like What Shawn Michaels and Triple H at all, but we can't speak like we are blameless.
Hey yo . . . One of the benefits of Evolution . . . of Hunter working closely with Ric Flair for years, is Flair taught Hunter how to avoid mistakes and pitfalls as the booker. We can talk about Ric Flair bookings . . . that guy made mistakes. But he's a champ, and so is Hunter. So kid, don't make the same mistakes I made. Which are the following . . . Lesson 1, lesson 2, lesson 3, etc. Hunter learned and I think he runs a good book. Focused on wrestling. No hokey, marriage bull crap or childish stories. Wrestling. Period. Hunter is booking wrestling. I like that.
HBK on Young Rock Episode. you could have used that one. what about Big Cass?
Miz was problematic to lockeroom at that time
Is this a reup?? I could've sworn one of these was done not too long ago.
Hogans gotta be on this list somewhere 😂just off the taker tombstone alone
0:02 macho face lock... imagine what Hogan pulled on MachoMan for Macho to respond to him so openly disrespectful. I remember them showing Hogan patting Liz ) ) when she was hoisted up on MM shoulders..
I bet Hogan and shawn Michael's is number one and two
Fully expected to see hulk hogan on this list
Stone Cold didn't want to work with Mero because he was just powerbombed by 120 pound Sable. Angle didn't make sense unless it was a Squash
Still can’t believe miz has been with wwe for 20 years now
Once i saw 2003-2004 Randy Orton as number 2, i already knew 1997-1998 Shawn Michaels was number 1😂🤣
