9. Marty Jannetty Was Furious Over Being Mentioned On Raw
In a Facebook rant that has since been deleted, Marty Jannetty caused a stir by calling out Stephanie McMahon for mentioning him on WWE television. During the latest Monday Night Raw broadcast, McMahon name checked Jannetty as an example of what could happen to Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose if they didn't see eye-to-eye. Naturally, Jannetty split from Shawn Michaels in 1991. This marked the end of their association together as The Rockers, and Marty wasn't quite as successful as the 'Heart Break Kid' going forward. Whilst Michaels went on to become a multi-time World Champion and celebrated performer, Jannetty struggled to keep his career on track and eventually faded away from the spotlight. During the social media rant, Jannetty referenced Stephanie's words and called her a "bitch". Further to that, he also said, "should I remind the world all them kids might not be Hunter's". Obviously, this wouldn't endear the man to WWE management, although the post has since been erased. That's probably a good thing.
