10 Wrestlers Who Absolutely Love Moments You Hate
Which wrestler actually quite enjoyed wrestling without an audience?!
It's not exactly uncommon to hear of a star wholeheartedly agreeing with the sea of hate being washed over a segment or bout they're involved with on wrestling television, with Seth Rollins just over the past week admitting that his infamous battles with The Fiend in 2019 - in particular, that Hell in a Cell debacle - didn't exactly "go the way we wanted it to".
That being said, there have actually been a number of occasions over the years when a moment or contest deemed entirely crap or cringe-worthy by the masses has actually earned a soft spot in the hearts of some of the industry's finest.
Instead of joining those unloading their frustrations on Twitter or vocally rejecting an occurrence within an arena, this lot all saw the light in some of wrestling's darkest moments, with many even going as far as to state that they're proud of moments many would happily admit to outright hating.
From dodgy barbed wire mishaps being seen as a good thing for the business by veterans, to the odd star actually revelling in the often soul-crushing crowd-less environment, these are those regularly dumped on wrestling happenings certain wrestlers are actually quite fond of.
10. Saraya Sees The Lumberjack Segment As "A Win" - AEW Dynamite 2022
Now, you can hardly blame a returning Saraya for feeling a little nervous and somewhat rusty upon delivering her first official All Elite promo on September 28's edition of Dynamite.
Yet, it was the actual content of the former Diva's and NXT Women's Champion's returning promo that didn't exactly go down all too well with many watching on at home, with some being quick to question the thought process behind having the star shine a glaring light on the fact the division needed "a change" before an impromptu Lumberjack match was booked over the Interim AEW Women's World Championship.
Despite the divisive response to the clunky attempt at showcasing the talent on display within the often mishandled division, though, Saraya herself definitely felt there was some positives to be found in the rough, with the former WWE star stating on Twitter shortly after:
On a good note I’m so proud of the women yesterday. Not only did they get more than 5 mins to have a match. It was the first ever lumberjack match. A woman on commentary and a good portion of the roster being showcased. That’s a win (even if I was a little rusty ?)— SARAYA (@Saraya) September 29, 2022
Her time in The Land of All Elite may not have gotten off to the most celebrated of starts, but every "revolution" needs to begin somewhere, right?
