10 Most Hated WWE PPV Main Events Ever

10. DX Vs. The Spirit Squad - Vengeance 2006

Vengeance 2006 was one of the more stacked "B" shows that WWE has ever run. Not only did the card feature dream matches such as Ric Flair versus Mick Foley and John Cena versus Sabu, but Rob Van Dam took on Edge for the WWE Championship. Still, the main event slot was reserved for the reformed D-Generation X, who took on The Spirit Squad.

Though the quintet of male cheerleaders had been a near-ubiquitous presence on Raw, getting in Shawn Michaels's hair for months, they had never been treated like actual threats - they only picked up wins using their numbers advantage, and even as World Tag Team Champions, they often had to play cannon fodder.

They were in full "cannon fodder" mode at Vengeance. Despite weaponry and cheating (and a five-on-two advantage), The Spirit Squad wasn't able to put DX away, and after an uninspired heat, HBK made the hot tag to HHH. The two middle-aged superstars scored simultaneous pins on two of the squad members, then easily beat up the other three to end the show. The DX reunion already felt like it had gone on too long.
