Vince McMahon angry is not a person WWE Superstars want to meet

#2 Kevin Owens/Sami Zayn

Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn were two of the top independent wrestlers in the world before they signed with WWE. In WWE, they were not always booked to their full potential and the WWE Universe were dissatisfied with the way that the wrestlers were portrayed in WWE.

During a match with the New Day, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn were apparently supposed to be attacked and beaten up. However, that did not quite go according to plan, and instead, they rolled out of the ring and walked up the ramp.

WWE management did not take well to this, and both men were pulled from the European tour immediately. However, the two superstars claimed that they had not known they were supposed to be beaten up and there had been a miscommunication.

It was too late for the tour, and they had to go home early.
