10 Wrestlers That Visibly Hated Working For WWE

3. Brock Lesnar Again

Never before had Brock Lesnar made his feelings about the WWE grind any clearer than during the final moments of his original run.

Less than two years after debuting, 'The Beast' was just about finished with the the company and when the New York audience found out and gave him hell for it, he had no problem throwing that same rage right back.

Shooting Madison Square Garden a double bird before offering special guest referee Stone Cold Steve Austin the same treatment, Lesnar had taken all he was prepared to following the planned Stunner. His face throughout their dour battle told the same tale too. The only commitment Brock had was the booking he'd elected to fulfil.

It foreshadowed the no frills gimmick he'd take on in later years - there had been no grander stage in WWE's history than the 20th edition of their 'Show Of Shows' in a venue synonymous with industry history. And all he wanted to do was exit it.
