Not always nice: JBL
For the most part, JBL is actually nice enough to fans. He's not the font of good nature that Bobby Eaton is, but there aren't any embarrassing stories about him being mean to fans, either.
JBL gets on our jerk list because of the way he treats his peers, or should we say treated, since his antics have cost him his job.

From giving Ultimo Dragon a 'swirly' in the toilet backstage at Smackdown to picking a fight with a young, rookie Edge, to bullying broadcast partner Mauro Ranallo, John Layfield has gone out of his way to being a jerk. Dozens, if not hundreds, of stories about him hazing and brutalizing talent backstage, are on record.
Once, JBL picked a fight with the wrong man--Martial arts master Steve Blackman. JBL admits that Blackman beat him badly, delivering five punches before JBL even realized he was in a fight. You'd think such a lesson would have taught JBL something, but he continued his antics until WWE finally released him after the Ranallo scandal.
