12 Newcastle Players That Should Have Been WWE Wrestlers

2. Kieron Dyer & Lee Bowyer

Every WWE tag team will end up falling out with each other and splitting up, often going on to feud one another for many, many months. This inevitable fate befell the midfield duo of Dyer and Bowyer during a humiliating 3-0 home defeat to a bang average Aston Villa side in 2005. The story goes that Dyer wouldn't pass to his teammate because he didn't think he was very good at football. So Bowyer, the perennial hot head of professional football at the time, took his frustrations out on his tormentor in front of 52,000 at St James' Park and millions around the world watching on television. Unlike their spandex-wearing counterparts, the pair would settle their difference with the most public of handshakes at the training ground the following week instead of going onto have a storied rivalry which would have been eventually settled inside a steel cage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFLeTm46CqQ
