10 More Wrestlers Who Swallowed Their Pride

4. The Deadman Orders The Edgeheads To Say Sorry

While Randy Orton may have gotten away without feeling the wrath of the legendary Undertaker for missing an all-important rehearsal all those years ago, a certain set of Edgeheads weren't as lucky as The Viper.

Hot on the heels of being nudged away from The Rated R Superstar, Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder committed what is seen as a cardinal sin backstage in the thick of a WWE event in Mexico. The toy-loving twosome were said to have been tapping away on their phones, ignoring the monitor, as Triple H battled Vladimir Koslov in the night's main event; a decision which evidently irked The Deadman.

After being told to apologise to the locker room leader by Mark Henry, The Phenom advised the naive duo to do the same to Koslov and The Game. As Matt Cardona would reveal later down the road, Trips' response, or lack of, to their actions and subsequent apology likely didn't do them any favours in the long run.

So, to any budding WWE stars of tomorrow watching on, you'd be wise to holster your iPhones when in the vicinity of a Deadman and a backstage monitor.
