10 Biggest WWE WrestleMania CONTROVERSIES 

I’m shocked that Mickie James “Grabbing” Trish Stratus at Mania 22 isn’t on the list. The company edited the spot out of their DVD releases

I was in the arena at Wrestlemania 30 and I will never forget the utter shock and disbelieve when the ref counted to 3. These few seconds of silence without the theme playing. The confused looks. Did Undertaker forget to kick out, was he hurt, did they just botch the streak? Then the graphics of the 21 - 1 on the screen. I still hear the "NOOOO" Scream of a fan a few rows back. The theme of Lesnar playing, people debating that there must have gone something wrong. Everybody in disbelieves. The women afterward were in the worst spot imaginable. Nobody was able to pay attention. I saw people cry and I saw angry people. Nobody could believe it. So just for an experience of emotions, it was absolutely worth it. For everything else not so much I guess

I was there to see Daniel Bryan's 18-second burial, still angers me to this day. But at least things worked out for him at the end.

Even though I'm personally burned out on RU-vid Ad-reads, I'm stoked that you guys have a sponsorship.

I'm still pissed about the Booker T thing. God, I cannot believe they did that to him

Of all of WWE's biggest flub ups, I will never in my life understand why booker t didn't go over on WrestleMania.

For the piper painting there was a storyline behind it Cause of the kilt brown claimed that piper was dressed half man (top) half woman (kilt as if it's a skirt) even brown refered it as a skirt ) wish drove piper to do this saying that he is half man half woman according to brown so now he will also be half black If I recall correctly

3:47 Vince McMahon must've really liked Roddy Piper and Bret Hart if he let them go scott free

Am I the only one that Loved Austin's 2001 heel run?

You know, if Paul Heyman calls the cops, he doesn't dial 911. He dials 211! 😂🤣

The thing about Seth cashing in on both Roman and Brock to win the title via pinning Roman is that it was last minute call made during the match Vince and the creative team realized they were in-between a rock and a hard place as people wanted to see Brock's title reign end but they didn't want Roman to walk out victorious with the title.

had a feeling Brock would end it, especially since they put in a "Defeat/Defend the streak" modes in the game the previous year

What makes Wrestlemania 9 even worse is that the bell never actually rang to make the Hogan vs Yoko match official. Even Taker says he would have rather lost the streak to Roman than Brock because it would have put more legitimacy on Roman.

I'm sure I read somewhere that Piper was unable to wash the black paint off and had to go to the hotel (and airport) looking like that.

Say what you want about wrestlemania 9 , but that Roman theme was one of the best ever arena designs !!!

Steve Austin was irl pissed off when Brock gave the fans the bird

The feud between Hogan and Slaughter continued straight after Wrestlemania when Slaughter threw a fireball in Hogan's face backstage , then UK Rampge 1991 and then kept going until SummerSlam 1991 in the Match Made in Hell handicap match .

Good Saturday evening and great video post. Great back stories and timeline of sequence. As you mentioned, the late Allen Coage (Bad News Allen, Bad News Brown) was not impressed with WrestleMania VI nor Rowdy Roddy Piper. Also, you left out something the the late Rowdy Roddy Piper covered himself on his "Born To Controversy: Rowdy Roddy Piper" DVD. A typical wrestling prank was played on him after the match to where he couldn't get that black dye off of him. A prank alleged to have been played on him by the late Andre The Giant and Arnold Skaaland. Going back to Allen Coage, he's given some of the best "shoot interviews" I have ever seen. The writing or whatever you want to call it with WrestleMania XVIIII between Triple H and Booker T was shameful. Not so much for the script changes and duplicity that is Vince McMahon. For the horrible bigotry, arrogance and stereotypes that were espoused were beneath the dignity of everyone. You missed another big controversy from WrestleMania XXII with Mickie James vs. Trish Stratus. Where Mickie was playing into Lesbian troupes and "grabbed her crotch" several times during that match. Infuriating VKM in gorilla position.

Another Piper moment from Wrestlemania 2 during a promo interview he said of Mr T "Never will I paint myself black and shave my head like an Indian " I don't know if this was on DVD but it certainly was on the VHS release .

To this day, I will always call the streak’s end “The What Heard Around the World”.

My problem with 21-1 is that it should have been someone else. Could you imagine if Roman Reigns won it and then went into the Tribal Chief/Head of the Table gimmick?

How about Hogan getting booed for two straight nights as Wrestlemania co-host?

Disco Inferno For The Hall Of Fame or maybe Alex Wright

That thumbnail is CRAZY 😂

I'm not really bothered by most of the stuff on this list besides Hogan screwing Yokozuna out of the championship and Undertaker losing to Lesnar. These two things should never have happened, and yeah the streak should've been ended by someone else

Undertaker should've never lost his streak. And especially to Lesnar of all people, someone who was already made. If Undertaker were to lose his streak it should've been against someone who actually needed the moment.

Video starts at 2:49

(shows picture of Rikishi) "a large Samoan contingent" I dunno if it's because I'm a bit chunky myself, but I couldn't help but have a giggle at the assumedly inadvertent timing of that.

Takers streak ending didn’t go down the right way, I think it should’ve been a fresher talent to end his streak or it shouldn’t have happened at all.

In hindsight, Hulkmania has done just as bad as good for both WWF/E and WCW.

Regarding WrestleMania 30... Whenever Paul Heyman does his Q&A/story telling performances and is asked directly about the match, he responds with, "Let me just say this. Do you think ANYBODY tells Brock Lesnar what to do?" He then states that Lesnar said (after the match) "What they gonna do? Fire me?"

Take a shot everytime he says "Nordvpn"

#1 is definitely a no-brainer

thanks!

The roddy piper one hurts to see

Happy you guys are getting more sponsors

I'm a thousand percent happy that Miro AKA formerly Rusev no longer works for WWE nowadays. Could you imagine with the character they had in betraying back in the day in today's climate with the war with Russia and the Ukraine. It would be the Muhammad versus The undertaker situation again or the Sergeant slaughter versus hulk Hogan situation again. Neither of those options are good in today's at all.

Still can’t believe what they did to Booker

3:41 "Both Ric Flair and the Macho Man were docked $5,000 for going into business for themselves..." I never knew two opponents could "go into business" for themselves together by doing something for the fans.

Worst about #5 is that 2/3 falls match sheamus and bryan they had was great.

Could you do Top 10 Best Jeff Hardy Matches?

good video

No BS, I'm loving the commercials/sponsored bits in these videos. They're entertaining and it makes me happy to see the revenue coming through for some worthy, hard working guys!

I was at WM to see Daniel Bryan’s loss, and after the initial shock, I feel like I was the only one who thought “That makes total sense”…it created a sense of surprise the rest of the event that anything could happen, and I feel like wrestling fans forget Bryan was playing an arrogant heel at the time who deserved comeuppance. If it wasn’t for the sympathy for Bryan after, I don’t think we would’ve gotten rise of D-Bry that year had a match actually taken place…so it kinda worked.

Get Marc and Pete from WrestleMe on Straight To Hell

Undertaker should've retired After Wrestlemania 29 with the Streak 21-0 Retiring Undefeated.

How about WWE having a show WWE confidential. Where they played Lex Luger calling 911 when Elizabeth died ? Disrespectful and I don’t think they even put her in the Hall of Fame either

There needs to be another Gimmick Battle Royal @ Wrestlemania

First thing that comes to mind is the fabulous moolah Battle Royal

Your ad reads are the polar opposite of Jay Foreman's, but they are equally entertaining

How many times does Vince screw Bret. Think about it. He really really hated him. WM9, the Nash, Taker, HBK storyline, the Montreal Screw job, the worked screwjob. I mean c'mon... The people that say Bret screwed Bret are morons. The dude was smart & saw it coming a mile away & even though he tried to protect his spot like so many before him - he still got screwed despite being the best at what he did.

Always thumbs up from me here 🤣

I'd be really curious why the decision for the 18 second win by shamus..was it supposed to look like a "shoot fight" where one just happens to starch the other quick?

Originally it was supposed to be Glacier who was going to end Takers streak but he sold his gimmick on Nitro if memory serves me.

One of the major reasons I dont watch the WWE is the Triple H vs Booker T storyline. If you want to know how WWE views its black champions, just watch that fued.

Did Sika wanna see an arena get burned down? ‘ cause knowing wrestling fans at the time that’s probably what would happened

That doesn't work for me brother!

2:46 start your welcome

Vince McMahon not paying Bad News Brown full for that match just added to the racial tentions. Also apparently Taker was supposed win that WM30 match but Brock Lesnar went into business for himself by beating him up so badly

Is the end of The Streak #1? Edit: I knew it.

I actually stopped watching wrestling because of Wrestlemania 9, and did not return until the Attitude Era was underway. That finish, man... ugh.

The Undertaker losing is still to this day an unimaginable bad decision by Vince. Brock didn’t need that rub at all if anything it cemented even more hate for him. Taker was never going to let the streak go on forever he was always going to go lose at some point but the Wrestlemania loss should of been his last match with him going out on his back.

I wanted Raid Shadow Legends !

I really wish they kept takers streak alive

To be fair to shamus you can knock Ben askren out in 4 seconds

Fans were largely upset shows a picture of the crow clapping and cheering

Dong forget Nicholas Streak 1 _ 0

I didn’t have a problem with Brock ending the Streak

Oh no.

At this point, i still can't believe anyone could have beaten the Streak. And i'm serious

Seriously considering Nord VPN

The spice…. The spice melànge

episode starts at 2:48 🤘🏻

No ? needed for the Piper entry.

Of course WrestleMania needs the money, think about WWE’s shareholders!

Normally, I skip through ads. But, Adam reading a Nord VPN ad just feels right!

Undertaker should have lost his streak, to........nobody. His last match should have been a triple threat match against Kane, and Mankind. There should have been a beautiful tribute to Paul Bearer, and the whole thing should have been two legends putting over another legend. Closing the chapters on all of their careers. It's a shame William Moody couldn't be alive to be Paul Bearer, but I'm working with the cards that would have been dealt.

The channel is awesome, but it must be said, 2 minutes of sponsor in a 14 minute video, is like, a lot

Nord VPN comes up in 80% of all videos I watch on RU-vid

It would be INFINITELY worse if Bad News Brown got 3/5ths of Piper's payout.

Ric flair got in trouble

You can skip to the 2:50 mark to avoid the unnecessarily long, annoying commercial

Booker t should of won the title at wrestlemania

Sheamus beat bryan in 18 seconds thats ridiculous but shocking

Smh when Stave hit Rock I cried and 🤮 irl 🤦‍♂️

2:45

Hogan bladed at Wrestlemania 7 against Slaughter , so did King Kong Bundy at Wrestlemania 2 when he fought Hogan why didn't anyone say anything about those matches ?

Wow

Brock became the new undertaker for wrestle mania due to the longevity the undertaker couldn’t now provide

BROCK went off script

Cool

this is gonna sound weird, but if you ask me, Piper’s stunt shows the “Duality Of Man” ideaology. Humans are capable of good(the unpainted half), but equally capable of evil(the painted half) plus, makes me think of The Moonchild; a kid who has 7 Angels and 7 Demons battling inside his soul in a war for control.

Should the streak have been broken? Let's see if that's on the list 🙂

T he streak ending wasnt right

Sheamus > Bryan

Looking back the way Brock is now... I think he was the right guy. Back then ... I HATED IT. It's one of the few positions I've changed my mind on. Brock's character smartly uses it as a power boost to clean house when he needs to. Because he ended the streak you legit think he can end anyone anytime anywhere. No matter how strongly they are booked which is why I think he will end Roman Reigns.

That thumbnail is getting changed...

It was Takers decision to have Brock go over, so if you wanna be mad at anyone, be mad at him

One of the answers given to “what can you do in 18 seconds” made me laugh out loud. You can figure out which one on your own.

The man that should have ended the Undertaker's WrestleMania streak is Sting!!
