10 WWE Wrestlers Who Had To Swallow Their Pride

Wrestlers have always been known for having somewhat sizeable egos. I mean, it sort of comes with the territory, doesn't it?

When you're tasked with entertaining the thousands crammed inside an arena and the millions watching at home, your personality is sometimes required to be cranked up to eleven in order to provoke those paying their hard earned cash into voicing their opinions.

So, with that understandably heightened sense of self inside the squared circle, naturally comes an inflamed sense of self-righteousness backstage that can aid a performer in getting their ideas across to the big bosses making the decisions.

Yet, that same attitude can sometimes force a star into a corner.

After they've committed a reckless mistake, these larger than life superstars have often found themselves having to eat humble pie in order to salvage their image both inside and outside of their designated company.

This list will take a look at those who stood up and wanted to be held accountable for their actions. That being said, you still wonder if some of these stars would have even bothered apologizing at all, if their livelihoods weren't on the line.

Bill Goldberg doesn't strike you as the sort of man who would ever be in any rush to apologise for his actions. The guy has injured and brutalised men as if that action were a sport within itself.

Yet, even he had the humility to understand that whatever ever the hell went down between him and The Undertaker at 2019's Super Showdown deserved to be addressed.

The two weathered icons looked to deliver on the much anticipated bout that had been decades in the making, but they were soon found unintentionally trying to murder each other in front of a sweltering Saudi Arabian crowd. A botched tombstone and Goldberg busting his head open before the match had even begun being the stand out f*ck-ups.

With the match quality being this poor, Goldberg had no choice but to comment on his performance, by highlighting how he accidentally knocked himself out. He then apologized by posting 'love my fans...but let u down' on Twitter.

He would bounce back with a well received squash of Dolph Ziggler at SummerSlam, so this fan service definitely aided Goldberg's missing to make it up to those he let down.
