8 Controversial Moments WWE Regret Airing On Live TV

Parody is something that has always been a part of pro wrestling, with mixed results. For every legendary "I did it for The Rock", there is a cringeworthy Punk Life. These segments are mostly intended with good nature and fun, but the Attitude Era would often stretch the boundaries of this notion. D-Generation X would take things entirely too far in 1998.

Led by Triple H dressed as The Rock, the extreme use of blackface by X-Pac and The New Age Outlaws was unforgivable then and has aged like a pint of milk. Jerry Lawler gleefully invites the audience to laugh along at the sight of white men racially profiling The Nation Of Domination in one of the most unfunny and deplorable segments in the history of Monday Night Raw. 

While some of the entries in this list can be viewed through the prism of their eras, this felt archaic even in the moment. Triple H's toilet humor about "smelling what The Rock was cooking" aside, this is a meritless promo that did nothing but make the company seem like they could not have their finger further from the pulse of pop culture.
