Top 10 Most Hated Pro Wrestlers

The Top Ten
1 Roman Reigns Leati Joseph "Joe" Anoa'i (Roman Reigns) was born on May 25, 1985. He is an American professional wrestler and former professional Canadian football player.

He is currently signed to WWE, where he performs under ring name Roman Reigns.

His finishing move is Spear and Moment of Silence... read more

This non-ending push for Reigns is so bad that it made Cena drop from #1 on this list. This guy is so hated, and Vince is still keeping him as a face. I don't get it. This guy skipped the first five years of Cena's hate and jumped straight to his last five years of hate. That should tell you something.

What's worse is that Vince made him beat Taker, which gave him even more hate than ever before. The guy received the loudest boos of all time on the RAW after that Mania. He's over, but he's not liked, which I think WWE is looking for with that kind of reaction.

2 Fandango Curtis Jonathan Hussey is an American professional wrestler. He is best known for his time in WWE, where he performed under the ring name Fandango. He was an NXT Tag Team Champion alongside Tyler Breeze, where they performed under the tag team name Breezango He and Breeze were released from WWE in June... read more

I absolutely hated this gimmick. In real life, I don't hate him, but this gimmick I deeply hated with a passion.

3 John Cena John Felix Anthony Cena Jr. (/ˈsiːnə/; born April 23, 1977) is an American professional wrestler, rapper, actor, and reality television show host signed to WWE, where he is assigned to the SmackDown brand... read more

Yes, a guy with his 5 moves of doom. (I'm afraid it could be 4 if the 5 Knuckle Shuffle is not considered a wrestling move). No face turn in 12 years. Just a severely boring gimmick.

There were tons of talented wrestlers in WWE, but yes, they were buried by WWE for Mr. Hustle, Loyalty, Respect. Just a children's hero created by WWE, who never loses. Never does anything wrong. Storyline picked from Bollywood movies.

Horrible in-ring skills, horrible mic skills, doesn't sell the moves of other wrestlers, has a stale gimmick. Anyone over 12 years old or anyone with a brain should be able to tell that he's awful.

4 Sean Waltman Sean Michael Waltman is an American professional wrestler. He wrestled for the World Wrestling Federation under the ring names 1–2–3 Kid and X-Pac intermittently between 1993 and 2002, World Championship Wrestling as Syxx, and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling as Syxx-Pac and Sean Waltman.

He was super hated with his X-Factor faction.

5 Dominik Mysterio
6 Baron Corbin Thomas Pestock is an American professional wrestler and former professional football player. He is currently signed to WWE, where he performs on the SmackDown brand under the ring name Happy Corbin. Pestock signed with WWE in 2012 and was assigned to their developmental brand NXT. He debuted on the... read more

A lot of fans hate Baron Corbin. A lot of that heat came from his time as Raw General Manager Elect. Others dislike him because they find him boring.

He is very annoying and thinks that he is the best. In my opinion, Cody Rhodes is the best.

7 Jack Swagger Donald Jacob "Jake" Hager Jr. is an American professional wrestler, and former amateur wrestler, signed to WWE where he performs under the ring name Jack Swagger.
8 Iron Sheik Hossein Khosrow Ali Vaziri was a professional wrestler who performed for WWE under the stage name The Iron Sheik.

The Iron Sheik was hated back in the day. He had that foreign wrestler who hates America gimmick.

9 David Otunga David Daniel Otunga Sr. is an American professional wrestler, lawyer and actor currently signed with WWE.
10 Sgt. Slaughter Robert Remus, better known by his ring name of Sgt. Slaughter, is an American semi-retired professional wrestler currently signed with the WWE in the ambassador program.

Fans hated him after he came back as an Iraqi sympathizer and fought Hulk Hogan.

The Contenders
11 Austin Theory

WWE booked themselves into a corner when they had him win the Money in the Bank. He is the worst U.S. champion I have ever seen, and I was SO happy to see Rey Mysterio take his title.

12 The Miz Michael Gregory "Mike" Mizanin is an American professional wrestler, reality television star, and actor. He is signed to WWE, where he performs on the SmackDown Live brand under the ring name The Miz.

Miz isn't awesome at all, so why does his theme song say awesome? I don't get it. The Miz is rubbish. When he enters the ring, it should be rubbish, not awesome. He deserves to be #1 on this list. He would easily get beaten by the worst wrestler, Fandango.

Miz is boo. His skills inside and outside the ring are rubbish as well. Miz is so bad he wouldn't get better than a QUARTER of 1 FANDANGO.

Most Hated in 2011. Played a great role as a heel, better than CM Punk. Began to suck during his face turn. Needs to stay a tweener if he wants his "Awesome" character to work.

13 Wade Barrett Stuart Alexander "Stu" Bennett is an English professional wrestler, actor, and former bare-knuckle boxer, best known for his tenure with WWE under the ring name Wade Barrett. He became a sportscaster for NXT in 2020.
14 Grayson Waller
15 Omos
16 Bastion Booger
17 Ryback Ryback Allen Reeves is an American professional wrestler that performs in wrestling shows on the indy circuit. He is a former WWE superstar and Intercontinental Champion.
18 Shayna Baszler
19 Hornswoggle Dylan Mark Postl is an American professional wrestler and actor currently signed to Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, under his ring name Swoggle.

Very silly but funny. I get why people hate him - he is a heel who makes things worse and isn't that talented.

20 Maxwell Jacob Friedman

He's not better than anyone - just a talentless loser who can't wrestle, has a punchable face, and if he took my hat and threw it, I'd have him arrested. MJF is the Logan Paul of wrestling.

21 Muhammad Hassan Marc Julian Copani is an American school vice principal and professional wrestler. He is best known for his appearances with World Wrestling Entertainment from 2004 to 2005, where he portrayed an Arab American under the ring name Muhammad Hassan.

He shouldn't be hated. On that one day when Taker beat Daivari, that was WWE's fault. He could have become amazing, and he did play on political and religious beliefs, but WWE and Vince McMahon ruined his chances by not handling the "terrorist" attack on Taker better. They should not have done that.

Unfortunate, given how things turned out in real life, but he was genuinely hated by fans.

22 Brock Lesnar Brock Edward Lesnar is an American professional wrestler and former amateur wrestler, professional American football player, and mixed martial artist who is currently signed to WWE.

Lesnar is a bad man, but since beating Goldberg for the title, he has become a joke! Never in the history of wrestling has a champion been given so much leeway to do whatever he wants. He shows up on RAW every six weeks and at pay-per-view events every other month. That gives him an advantage over opponents because he's fresh, and they're banged up.

To me, it takes a lot away from the show when the champ's not there. I'm not crazy about Reigns, but he comes to fight every week, barring a severe injury. Cena was the same way until his acting career took over. This feels like a "slap in the face" to legends like Sammartino and Backlund, who bled WWE. Even Hogan showed up for promos.

23 JBL John Charles Layfield (born November 29, 1966), better known by the ring name Bradshaw or JBL, is an American retired professional wrestler and football player.

Fans wanted to see him lose the title every time he was defending it.

Typical arrogant American... That's why I hate him.

24 Stevie Richards Michael Stephen Manna is an American professional wrestler and podcaster, better known by his ring name, Stevie Richards.
25 Jonathan Coachman Jonathan William Coachman, also known as "The Coach", is a sports interviewer who works for ESPN who currently interviews WWE personnel.
