RANKING: The 15 Greatest BETRAYALS In WWE History! 

I am still shaking my head at the WWE for putting the Bellas turning on Ronda Rousey in the top 5

Rocky Maivia turning on Farooq and becoming the new leader of the Nation of Domination was a good one.

If anybody notice with these wwe list they been doing the last 3 months half of each list is events that happen within the last 3 to 5 years,wwe trying to make it seem that wwe is at its greatest peak right now

wow, bellas turned on rousey less than a month after they teamed up.......monumental.

Honorable mentions: X-pac Betrays kane (I wanted kane to kill Pac after that betrayal) Christian betrays Edge Batista betrays Rey (heel Batista was great and does not get enough credit) Trish stabs Jericho in the back and dates Christian Dean Betrays Seth (irony is a cruel thing) Best non wwe betrayal: Kevin steen betrays El Generico (one of the best feuds in modern wrestling).

You got lust in your eyes for Elizabeth!!!!!

The recent betrayal I like is Tommaso Ciampa turning on Johnny Gargano.

Hogan would be the heel (in the fans eyes) if the Mega powers angle was done today

Honorable mention......... Sweet Sapphire turning on The American Dream Dusty Rhodes to join the Million Dollar Man

Triple H turning on Shawn Michaels in 2002 which led to the full time return after 4 years and that great street fight at Summerslam that year is my number 1 betrayal

Shawn Michaels betraying Marty was awesome and should be number one.

28:21-28:25.; I thought I read somewhere that in the late-1980's, André The Giant could still go & it was around that time that rumors were going around saying "André The Giant can't go, anymore."... His match at 'WWF WrestleMania 3' in 1987, for example. I wasn't born until 1989 & I remember reading/seeing something when I was in middle school that disproved said rumors, but, I don't remember where, exactly it was that I read it at.

Was Paul Bearer betraying the Undertaker on there?

How about the WWE betraying their TV-14 fan-base by selling out & targeting an all-new demographic by going TV-PG back in mid-2008?... That was most certainly on my list.

Shawn didn't turn on Marty.. Marty decided to dive through the window ahaha

I honestly like Dean Ambrose betrayal is better on Seth Rollins betrayal

I fell asleep when Chyna low blowed Trips and join Corporation, I had school early morning. I was so pissed the next day when my friends told me about lol....and of course Austin betraying the fans joining Vince at WM 17 😂 I cant even watch that finish to this day without getting angry lol

11:31-11:49.; I remember watching this episode of 'WWE RAW', also. I remember the part when that fan yells "NO!!!...", too--which I thought was funny, personally.; Much like everything else in this day & age, it went on RU-vid, instantly & it spread like a California wild-fire.

Funny thing is looking back, pretty much everyone who turned on Hogan was really fully justified.....too much grandstandin and hot doggin by Hogan

22:42-23:10.; I agree with The Solomonster. If I were in the same situation that Paul Orndorff was in, for example & Hulk Hogan/whomever else you can think of kept mispronouncing my last-name, I would've turned on him/them, too.

triple h turning on xpac at wrestlemania 15

Bret turning on the fans 97?

0:28-0:35.; I agree with The Solomonster. I love correcting the WWE by doing my own "Top-10"/"Top-15" list, as well...

Randy Savage or HBK should be number 1 for what they did to Hulk Hogan and Marty Jannetty Edited: y'all i was pretty close I knew it deserved top 5 those turns were great number 4 and number 2 so close

For the Greatest Betrayal in a wrestling will definitely be Hogan turning on the Hulkamanics at the Bash At The Beach,but the Big Turn of 1980 when Ole Anderson turned on Dusty should be on the all time list

My top 15 betrayals 1. Paul Bearer betraying Undertaker at Summerslam in 1996 2. Seth Rollins betraying The Shield and swinging a chair at Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns 3. Triple H turns on D-X at WM15 4. Evolution betraying Randy Orton by giving him the infamous thumps down 5. Shawn Michaels turning on Marty Jannety and throwing him through a window 6. The Nation turning on Faarooq 7. Eddie Guerrero betraying Rey Mysterio 8. Stephanie Mcmahon betrays Vince Mcmahon at Armageddon 9. Kevin Owens turns on Chris Jericho 10. Owen Hart betrays Bret Hart 11. X-Pac betraying Kane and stealing his girlfriend Tori 12. Scott Hall betraying Kevin Nash 13. Paul Heyman turning on Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series 02 14. Chavo Guerrero turning on Eddie Guerrero 15. Christian turning on Edge and delivering a one man con chair to

WHOS YA DADDY MONTREAL!!

Whoever comes up with these Top 5 lists for WWE's Instagram is probably a young guy who didn't grow up on the WWF days like guys like us did. It's probably someone who became a fan during the the late 2000s/early 2010s Super Cena era.

I'm in hysterics about Hulk Hogan's inability to pronounce Paul Orndorf's last name. It would've been hilarious if Paul acknowledged this As one of his pet peeves after betraying Hogan. Then pronounce Hulk's last name as "Hoolagin".

Curious as to where Chyna turning on HHH fell on your list. I always found that one was done really well and came out of nowhere.

I Love Rebecca Quin (Becky Lynch) Turing Heel With Her Betrayal Of Her Friend Ashley Elizabeth Fliehr (Chalotte Flair) At Summerslam 2018.

Great recall by Solomonster on the fan screaming, "NOOOOO" when Seth was swinging the chair. I had forgotten about that, and I have to admit... it really added an exclamation point to that turn on The Shield

22:53.; Was Hulk Hogan mispronouncing it as 'Orndolph' (like in Dolph Ziggler), or, 'Orndoff'?... I would assume it sounds like The Solomonster is saying 'Orndoff', but, that's just me & how I'm literally hearing it.

Stone Cold Steve Austin Turns On The Wwf And Joins The Ecw/Wcw Alliance In 2001 Should Be On His List Of The 15 Greatest BETRAYALS In WWE/Wwf History.

Chyna turns on HHH Shane betrays Austin as a referee HHH turns on X-Pac HHH turns on HBK Taker turns on JR Austin turns on JR Batista on Mysterio HHH turns on Daniel Bryan SSlam Nikki turns on Brie .........

HOLD UP! Did they really rank The Sheild #1 GREATEST FACTION OF ALL TIME!? Oh so fuck NWO? DX? Wolfpack? EVOLUTION ? LOD?????

If we're talking real life betrayals that became storylines theb Lita betraying Matt Hardy is N0.1 no doubt.

"I kicked your leg out of your leg", never gets old. Owen was great but Rumble 94 how many times did he just carry on with the same mantra "All you had to do is tag me" and "Bret's selfish", those 2 things like 10 times in a row was all he kept saying.

Whenever Vince posts a list, you have to take it with a 15-pound block of salt. Also, Triple H still fucking with Jericho after all these years.

Flair sucker punching Sting in 95 will never not make me laugh, I must watch that match once a year, "NATURE BOY" "STAND TALL"

Babyface Bob Backlund's turn on Bret came outta nowhere. As a John Morrison fan, Miz turning on Morrison pissed me off. The first WCW betrayal I remember was Lex Luger destroying Ricky Steamboat.

My favorite Non-WWE betrayal is Kenny Omega betraying Kota Ibusi

Out of all the biggest betrayals, you didn't include Matt Hardy betraying his Brother Jeff to lose the WWE Championship @ Royal Rumble 2009 against, out of all People, his (Matt's) real-life bitter rival (at the time) in Edge! Not even an honorable mention? Come on Man, you should know better than that lol!

Outside of WWE... the time Barry Windham turned on Lex Luger to join The Four Horsemen was pretty epic.

I think it was on the first NXT UK episode WWE advertised Rhea Ripley defending her NXT UK Title against Isla Dawn. But that match has been scrapped.

Taking your comments of Hogan being betrayed by various wrestlers and OSW Review's commentary on Hogan near the end of 1991 going into '92 and 93, I tend to think Hogan was actually a heel in 1986 who was pretending to be a face which fans were blind to until the end of 1991 when fans started to wake up to Hogan's shenanigans. They were not having any of the usual Hogan betrayal booking at the 1992 Royal Rumble. It's actually quite brilliant when you give it some thought.

Barry Windham betraying Lex Luger and joining the four horseman.

I’m not saying I hate The Shield but there is no way in hell they are the number 1 faction of all time. They aren’t even top 10. The 4 Horsemen, nWo, DX, Hart Foundation, nWo Wolfpac, The Nation Of Domination etc. all blow The Shield out of the water.

Montreal Screw job hands down followed by Shawn Michaels chasing marty through the window of the barbershop,honourable mention - (non wwe) Scott Steiner turning on Rick Steiner,Rick Martel turning on Tito Santana at Wrestlemania 5,Sgt Slaughter against America,lol,ok the last one was literary a joke

It doesn't belong on the list but Jericho hitting Rock with a chair at Survivor Series '01, the WWF was "on the line" and Jericho did that because his ego, thought that was great, set up Jericho's character as a jealous prick who didn't care about anybody but himself, that he had as undisputed champion could of been better, but he made it gold with his character, love Y2J.

my top 15 imao love urs but here's mine 15.shield disassemblement 14.matt hardy turning on jeff hardy 2008 to help edge who is the person who slept with matt's then girlfriend lita helped him retain his title to turn on his own brother it was in my opinion perfectly done with the chair spot the follow from it i find it bland but the turn i just loved and still do like the lengths matt would go to grow from his brother's shadow was unbelievable to me 13.sgt.slaughter turning on america to align with general adnan and iron sheik and infamously burning the american flag was just too extreme for tv but i loved it i loved wwf cause i still call it wwf lol them pushing the boundaries to me is what helps them reach that next level and for sgt.slaughter america's hero next to hogan to turn his back on his country was just out of the blue 12.larry turning on bruno mid match was just so well and timeless and the heat larry got on the fans was just so pure and so real you can argue that it was too well done cause of all the death threats he'd get later on to me is the most underrated heel of all time 11.sherri turning on savage i do agree with you on this one solomonster was warrior's best match beyond the shadow of a doubt to me was the only warrior match i enjoyed and the savage/elizabeth reunion to happen in the same night was so beautiful i can watch over and over again 10.Triple H turning on Shawn Michaels in 2002 I did not expect this to happen so soon after shawn's return on screen and the overall feud combined into this like the follow up from this is why I rank it higher the the larry and bruno mid match turn and the sgt.slaughter turn and the sherri martel turn was the feud itself included with the turn was so fun to watch and the match was one of my favorite extreme matches like extreme rules street fights etc. to this day 9.the festival of friendship i just loved everything about this to me the best modern betrayal and to me wont ever be topped considering the fact owens and jericho was the cast to this two professionals playing there parts and building it up to near perfection I can't tip my hat enough to these to in today's age nevertheless to pul it off in this era was baffeling to me as always jericho proving to me that he is as always right now behind taker and sting my favorite wrestler of all time 8.the rock turns on the people in the survivor series 1998 like solomonster said yes its a blatant copy of the screwjob the year before but its pulled off with such precision it deserves its high rank on this list as it should with everyone else 7.The mega powers implode I mean who wouldnt have this in your top ten its like fine wine it gets better to watch back as the years go by and if you dont have it in your top 10 then we cant be friends 6.Triple H and Evolution turn on Randy Orton yes unlike Triple H and HBK the follow up on this turn is awful God awful to be prescise but to me the turn is better executed more out of nowhere pun intended to Orton and like solomonster said if not for the accidental bad booking of Orton Batista wouldn't have gotten the boost he needed to elevate his career to unthinkable heights 5.Owen turns on Bret had not for this along with the Wrestlemania 10 classic gone as it did Owen wouldn't have been as much of a star as he came out to be and much deserved to be he is one of my favorite heels of all time and the simple brother vs. brother feud in this was soooo enjoyable to watch it brings a smile to my face seeing how it all unglued brother Owen and the hitman as always from the Harts perfectly executed 4.Andre turns on Hogan the blood dripping from Hogan's chest Hogan left in shock from his partner in crime was and still is an infamous segment and probably one of the most remarkable segments of Piper's pit to air in my opinion the build up to Hogan finally caving in to himself and screaming out yes to finally accepting Andre and Heenan's challenge is something everyone can look back with fondness in all 3.Paul Bearer turns on the Undertaker I know it's high but I think it deserves to I mean think of what solomonster said Bella's turn on Rousey was like an aliiance that lasted waaaay shorter then the actual Alliance in 2001 tjis friendship was personal to the points of family like which was true then to be told as by Bearer himself when he goes on to reveal ''KANE'S ALIVE YOUR BROTHER'S ALIVE UNDERTAKER!'' I mean everything from this the fall out the feud that goes to like what 1998 or something like that with Mankind Vader and Kane all being in this to Vader having some of his best matches to me in this feud with Taker and the turn is so memorable saddening and heartbreaking like 6 long years of Bearer and Taker that's longer then the damn Rockers partnership for crying out loud the only reason it's not top 2 or even 1 is cause 2.The Montreal screwjob thank you solomonster I feel safe now to say this counts as a betrayal not only does this start the evil Vince McMahon character but still is heavily talked about to this day like longevity wise to still have people have conversations about this is truly to forever last in the tests of time as Vince's betrayal stabbing Bret in the back like that is unforgettable and will be as long as time shall stand some honorable mentions here before number one Austin turning on the fans at Wrestlemania 17 in the astrodome the execution is pitch perfect I mean it but I dont have it here cause the fall out to me was soooo horrid and WWF WWE whatever you wanna call it has not rebounded in the terms of ratings since they pulled the trigger on it Christian turning on Edge I think this one is totally underrated like if not for this we would've never gotten Christian's beyond beautiful theme song and the canadian dollar feud with Jericho I myself ENJOYED FULLY on Christians 2001-2005 heel run sooo damn much plus we get the meme worthy Christian mocking DDP face at Wrestlemania 18 cause of this I mean how can't it not get better then that now my number 1 is...the rockers breakup in the barber shop segment I mean really its number one come on if WWE'S stupid system actually still puts this on there list then you know it's perfect to a point in every way shape and form and of course it starts the iconic career of one of the best performers and wrestlers on the damn planet like it's almost God's greatest gift to wrestling and Heenan's commentary was soooo fucking good looking at this I cry of laughter at anyone who say's Marty Jannety escaped through the window like of course he did that is his own fault that cowardly bastard everyone just pointing out the obvious there

You are right - many will argue over #1. If you mean to say that Bret betrayed WWE by being selfish and holding the WWF title hostage while WWF was in a great war with it's main competitor, then yes, it is a big betrayal. If you mean to say that Bret was going to leave the WWF because he would get $2.5M instead of $1.5M even though WWF made him who he was, then yes, it is a big betrayal. Otherwise, you just ruined a great list. Bret was the one who betrayed the whole locker room.

#8 Trish on Jericho #7 macho on Hogan #9 Steph on dad for hhh #10 Owen on Bret

You know why WWE loves the Shield... or should I say Reigns

I'm i crazy for putting Christian turning on Edge number 1

The Shield betrayal wouldn't even make my up twenty. Maybe it would if they hadn't been on a winning streak when it happened. Why would you turn on your friends if you're winning? That's more shocking than great lol

Randy Orton should thank undertaker every day for resurrecting his career at w.m. 21. The 2nd part not so much.lol. 😈

I thought your #1 would be Hogan & Savage or Shawn & Marty, but you made a hell of a reasoning for Montreal.

They treat the Bells as if they're 'Legends' remember. When they've done fuck all. Two Divas title runs, and that's it.

the Montreal screw job is a perfect choice for number 1, but howcome Jericho betraying aj styles is always overlooked because when it happened I didn't expect that and I enjoyed it too

Triple h and Chyna turning on DX at Wrestlemania 15

"Marty Jannetty diving through a window"

If we go outside WWE/F I'd say Shane Douglas turning on the NWA to join ECW

Triple H trying to do a basic etrayal with KO and Y2J is just him bringing out his shovel in a different way

Well if we're including real shit turned storyline we gotta have Edge and Lita betraying Matt Hardy. Wasn't really a big in ring moment though so I can understand leaving it off.

Tatanka Turning on lex Luger an betraying his native Americans at summerslam 1994 was shocking at the time when you consider the fact that the character Tatanka played he had to be a good guy not to mention the fact that Tatanka was accusing Luger of betraying the fans to join ted diBiase ok it didn’t lead to much but it shocked me as I was only 11 at the time

Sherry & Macho had been together since summer 89 so almost 2 years

Barry windham turning on Luger as far as just wwe i would say HHH beating the shit out of Flair.

Mike Mcguirk she must be pretty old now. I mean she was old back in the eighties and nineties. lol

Hogan joining the NWO???? HHH turning on HBK 2002.

ignoring the matches they had Matt smacking Jeff in the head with a chair in 09-10 was heart breaking imo

I'm surprised HHH turning on HBK isn't on this list.

Taker turning on Jim Ross and becoming a badass heel.

Not putting the betrayal from eddie on rey? You are starting to disapointing me more Solomonster

Ronnie Garvin turning on Dusty Rhodes was great.

My top 15 would be in no particular order Owen turning on Bret Hhh turning on xpac The rock turning on faarooq Savage turning on hogan Hbk turning on Marty Heyman turning on brock Paul bearer turning on taker Mr perfect turning on flair in 92 Bulldog turning on diesel Sid turning on hbk Hhh turning on hbk Vince turning on mankind China turning on hhh 123 kid turning on razor Crush turning on savage

Batista and Rey Mysterio back in 2010

Paul Bearer turning on the Undertaker and it's not even close.

How did he not mention in any # crush and macho man that’s was a great and emotional turn @Solomonster

Jake turning on Warrior was always pretty interesting

Biggest Betrayal has Unmasked Kane 2003 on RVD. Batista 2009 on Rey Meysterio. Lita on Matt Hardy 2005. Triple H & Chyna leaving DX 1999 and Paul Heyman on Brock Lesnar 2002

The luster. Lust Hogan.lol.😈

#4 Seth #5 ko on Jericho #6 rock vs mankind

My Favourite Betrayals: 5) Lesnar betrays Angle during the Lesnar-McMahon cage match on Smackdown in 2003 4) Kane betrays Undertaker at the Royal Rumble 1998 during the Taker-HBK casket match 3) Eddie Guerrero betrays Rey Mysterio in 2005 2) Batista betrays and beats the high holy hell out of Triple H in 2005 1) Triple H betrays Shawn Michaels in 2002 Honourable mentions: Paul Bearer turns on the Undertaker at SS 1996 The People's Champion betrays the people and becomes the Corporate Champion at SSeries 1998 The People betray The People's Champion at SS 2002 (Truly cruel irony) Shawn betrays Marty on the Barber shop in 1992 Owen kicks Bret's leg out of his, uh, leg at the Royal Rumble 1994 Just some personal favourites of mine. Especially the ones I saw live, because of my genuine shock and disbelief when I seen them for the 1st time.

If mega power s is ur favourite why is it no 3 on ur list

best modern WWE Betrayal = Festival of Friendship

I can’t relate to half of these incidents because started watching wrestling only in 2000 😔

What about rey betrayimg batista

Backlund's meltdown after the Maivia turn was a classic !

Marty tried to escape lmao

I would put Lesnar betraying Heyman on my list. And maybe Triple H on Shawn Michaels.

Gargano and ciampa? I get not being in top 5 or even top 10 but not even honorable mentions.

Number 16 Gargano betrays the fans 😂😂😂

Bret screwed Bret.

I remember being 8 years old when Eddie Guerrero turned on Rey Mysterio and just being so shocked when it happened

Bret betrayed Bret.

Hogan turning heel

Xpac turning on kane

#1 Hogan heel turn

Word i felt bad for y2j lol
