As tempting as it was to include Triple H vs. Roman Reigns (WWE WrestleMania 32) in this list, the crowd reaction to Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns from WWE WrestleMania 34 was a lot worse.

Heading into the ‘Mania main event, it seemed obvious that Reigns was going to finally defeat UFC-bound Lesnar to win the WWE Universal Championship.

As it turned out, Lesnar retained the title in a surprising finish and he ended up staying with WWE instead of returning to UFC.

The Beast was arguably WWE’s top heel around this time, while his opponent often received negative reactions despite being one of WWE’s top babyfaces.

With nobody to cheer for, many WWE fans decided to hijack the match from the start (“CM Punk!” chants) to the finish (“Boring!” chants).

In fairness to Lesnar and Reigns, their WrestleMania 31 match in 2015 was one of the best ‘Mania main events of the last decade.

Three years later, the New Orleans crowd did not even give them a chance to let the story play out in their WWE Universal Championship match.
