While WWE’s history has many incredible moments celebrated at the Hall of Fame and other events, fans remember bad memories. Vince McMahon For decades, retaining full creativity led to his wildest ideas making it on television, putting the performers in strange situations.
Many segments stood out in real time because they were so suspicious and felt boundary discomfort. WWE still ran the angle in the hopes it was connected, and the fans didn’t retain any negative memories. However, the worst instances are still talked about today, as the entire library is online. Each of the next WWE was questionable at the moment and got even worse over time.

The rivalry between Generation D X and the ruling nation may be the feud of the greatest faction in WWE history. However, one segment didn’t stand up well, and many viewers and even the talent involved felt a little too far in the moment.
DX has made a “black face” for country spoofing in the comedy segment. The promotion gave me laughs, but a few countries didn’t like the idea. Mark Henry revealed that X-Pac apologized to them behind the scenes that night, and that the segment would be more criticized in later years.

Edge won the WWE Championship for the first time. For years he became a true main event star with his midcard. The act of the rated R couple with Lita was booked to celebrate live sex after his big title victory.
Both Edge and Rita talk about how this is one of the least favorite moments of their careers, and that they have to pretend to have sex in front of a live crowd that includes many kids in attendance. A wardrobe malfunction made it even more difficult for LITA to pass the segment, and after contract expired, he played a role in resigning at a younger age.

In the era of attitude, I often pushed too much envelopes

The Attitude Era is the most interesting time to come back as WWE fans as some things keep us up like the main event performers still maintain. Unfortunately, many of the card scenes in the center and below feel too ridiculous and no longer provide entertainment.
Road Warrior Hawk had some real issues outside the ring, so WWE is ready to book his angles and show up under influence and end his life. The low point was characterized by a hawk falling from the top of the Titan Tron, sounding as a propaganda stunt unfolding in previous suicide comments.

The offensive ideas didn’t serve their purpose

This story leads to Heidenreich getting Cole to embrace behind the scenes as an announcer. Everyone thought this was too far back then, but nothing went on, so it became a stranger. Heidenreich returns to playing his traditional heels, and Cole barely references their moments while calling for his future match.

Trish Stratus claims that Vince McMahon’s aggressive segment is thriving with strips and bark like a dog. McMahon did this with Cayfabe to punish Stratos after entering a feud with his daughter Stephanie.
The boss was making it with a female character that was much younger than him, and although he had already crossed some lines, this segment felt too far away. Stratus talked about her big push that comes after making the story worthwhile, but this segment will be used in the clip today after Vince was accused of various heinous sexual acts forced on employees leading up to his end mise.

A ruthless attack era | Triple h | none |
WrestleMania 19 It was a stacked WWE card with matches such as Rock vs Steve Austin, Brock Lesnar vs Kurt Angle, Vince McMahon vs Hulk Hogan and more. Triple H and Booker T rebutted at the World Championships, making WWE believe that for it to stand out, they have to offer a very different storyline.
Unfortunately, they went down the racist rabbit hole of “his people” with Triple H Mocking Booker for having ceilings in WWE. Triple H claimed that Booker was there to dance and entertain while making racial overtones. Booker’s losses make it even worse, and it continues to live up to as a historically bad angle.

WWE initially booked the Bailey and Chuck tag team as a gay couple. The talented performer has developed enough chemistry to change the face of ACT during the time he represents Smackdown against Raw.

WWE teased a big secret in Kane’s past when Triple H began threatening ahead of the World Championship feud. Triple H shared that Kane is the driver when he gets involved in a car accident that killed his teenage girlfriend Katie Vick.
The story was bad enough, but the follow-up segments are something everyone remembers. Triple H impersonated Kane at the funeral and slammed the mannequin with cas as a moment of slow dislike. WWE filmed this at a real funeral home, making Triple H and everyone else even more uncomfortable for the segment that ocks a few decades later.
