#7 Braun Strowman chases Sami Zayn

On an episode of Raw, The Monster Among Men, Braun Strowman came face to face with Sami Zayn. The size difference prompted Strowman to state that he wants some real competition, to which Zayn responded physically. An irate Strowman began chasing the agile Zayn around the ring in a hilarious visual. It ended with Zayn being put down, but he still wanted more. Strowman didn't bother though, and left for the back.

#6 Big Show in tears

The May 14, 2012 episode of Raw didn't fare well for The Big Show. The Raw General Manager John Laurinaitis turned the giant into a crying mess, ordering him to beg him if he wanted to keep the job. Big Show got on his knees and did the same, promising him that he won't make fun of his voice ever again.

Laurinaitis got the apology, but still decided to fire The Big Show, who couldn't cope with the announcement and continued to cry in the ring. This wasn't the only occasions when Big Show was turned into a meme. Here's a list of some of the most famous memes featuring The Big Show.

#5 The Undertaker's laugh

At WWE SummerSlam 2015, Brock Lesnar met The Undertaker, over a year after Lesnar broke his legendary streak at WrestleMania 30. The match ended in controversial fashion, with The Deadman picking up the win by putting the Hell's Gate on Lesnar. On one occasion during the match, Lesnar got up and began laughing at The Undertaker. The Phenom returned the favor by mocking his laughter, immediately following it up with a punch on Lesnar.

#4 Batista's "give me what I want"!

On the road to WrestleMania 35, Batista came back and challenged Triple H to a match at The Show of Shows. The Animal seemed incredibly desperate to put The Game down at the event one more time, and didn't hide his emotions one bit. Batista screamed at Triple H at the top of his voice, demanding a match. All that remained now was for the fans to take care of it and turn this comedic visual into a viral meme.

Batista spitting on the mic throughout his intense promo on Triple H was what turned it into an amusing visual. Unfortunately, The Animal lost his 'Mania match against at MetLife Stadium.

#3 John Cena's hysterical laugh

John Cena has become somewhat of a cultural icon for this generation, and has given birth to a string of hilarious memes in the process. Out of all the memes made on Cena, the one mimicking Tom Cruise's laugh has to be the most recognizable.

On January 16th, 2008, YouTuber Suburban Hicks uploaded a video named "Tom Cruise Maniac Laugh (REMIX)". It showed the Hollywood actor laughing hysterically in an interview. Years after Cena gained internet recognition, someone decided to make a parody of the Tom Cruise meme, and the Cena laughing meme was born.

#2 Brock Party

Soon after Brock Lesnar won the WWE Money In The Bank Match in shocking fashion, he came out on an episode of Raw in quite a good mood, and understandably so. On the May 27 episode of Raw, Lesnar came down to the ring, carrying his briefcase like a boombox, and dancing on the ramp on a catchy tune. Lesnar didn't stop there, and continued his dance after hitting the ring, as Seth Rollins struggled to keep his composure.

#1 RKO outta nowhere

And here comes the best of 'em all! Randy Orton's RKO is widely recognized by fans as one of the most good looking finishers of all time. The way The Viper, as well as his opponent, fly in the air for a split second during the execution, certainly makes for a cool visual.

Back in 2014, a Youtuber named Wrestling LAD uploaded a parody of footballer Arturo Vidal, with Orton sneaking in and hitting an RKO on him. The meme took off and in a matter of weeks, Youtube was filled with vines showing Orton sneaking behind random people and RKOing them
