10 Biggest WWE Injustices

That's not fair.

Injustice is basically a ubiquitous and unavoidable part of every-day life. In fact, you can barely walk outside your house these days without immediately noticing something that doesn't seem entirely fair.

It's also fairly common in WWE - although not to anywhere near the same extent. We're not talking about underpaid public service workers here, so much as we are potentially main event-calibre wrestlers being kept from realising their dreams by cruel fate, or just a big match defeat that really sticks in the craw.

In other words, it's rarely worth standing outside WWE HQ in Connecticut with placards, or chaining yourself to the ring-post in protest. It's Vince McMahon's company at the end of the day, and if he disagrees with our (obviously correct) assessment of Roman Reigns then so be it.

But that doesn't mean there's no point bringing attention to their wrestling crimes. Stars - and, in some cases, fans - of the squared circle who have been the victims of injustice over the years need a voice, and if we don't give it to them then then who will?

10. Muhammad Hassan's Firing

Muhammad Hassan was a promising WWE wrestler of growing repute in 2005 when his career became forever destined to be known for one extremely damaging PR episode in which he played absolutely no part.

Of course, nobody could have foreseen that his character - an Arab-American who blamed his lack of opportunities on racial and religious discrimination - would become the centre of a media storm after a real-life terrorist attack.

But it has to go down as one of wrestling's biggest injustices that Hassan, saddled with a gimmick his employers presumably chose as a deliberate ploy to court controversy, was made the casualty (and, so far as we're aware, only casualty) of that ploy when the controversy suddenly became too hot for them to handle.

What makes this even more galling is the fact that Hassan's career in the squared circle - which might have been a successful one under different circumstances - was completely over by year's end. He retired altogether, apparently sensing that new opportunities would be hard to come by.
