#4 Disliked: Kofi Kingston match (SmackDown)

Between Seth Rollins’ heel turn in early June 2014 and his Money In The Bank triumph in late June 2014, he faced Kofi Kingston in a relatively meaningless match during a SmackDown taping.

The former Shield member was essentially told to ‘squash’ his opponent, but Rollins respected Kingston and allowed him some offence during their three-minute match.

This frustrated Vince McMahon, who yelled at Rollins backstage and instructed the two competitors to go back out in front of the same audience and redo the match.

“The BeastSlayer” recalled the incident during an interview on Edge & Christian’s ‘Pod of Awesomeness’:

"I was so angry and embarrassed. I was almost ready to walk out and not do it, like, 'Never in my life, never should this happen to me,' but it was such a learning experience in retrospect that it's okay to screw up sometimes."
