10 MORE Wrestlers In Situations That Scared The Sh*t Out Of Them
10. Hardcore Feedback
Long before Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder were winning Raw Tag Team Championships via fluke on the 'Grandest Stage', they were...winning the SmackDown straps via fluke on a smaller one, but their alliance with Edge in late-2007 was at very least an escape from purgatory at Brett and Bryan, The Major Brothers.
It was hard to be a fan-turned-wrestler in the ruthless mid-2000s SmackDown locker room, policed as it had been for years by the likes of The Undertaker, John Bradshaw Layfield and others, but revealing yourself as a "mark" was a cardinal sin amongst many other unwritten bylaws. Now hosts of a podcast about wrestling merchandise, the pair would have been chastised for their ways then, and sought to toe the line by asking feared steward Bob Holly what he'd thought of one of their early outings.
"WHOLE THING SUCKED", he curtly replied, not even breaking stride yet still leaving them quivering in their brand new boots. One assumes he'd assess their 2019 programme with The Revival in much the same way.
