When there is a WWE show in Chicago, you have to brace yourself for the inevitable "CM Punk!" chants from the crowd. The incessant manner of chanting is enough to throw any WWE Superstar off balance. The same happened with Seth Rollins.

The Architect was addressing the RAW roster on the Red brand's first episode after Survivor Series in November last year. While he was in the slow process of turning heel and becoming the Monday Night Messiah, he eventually succumbed to the "CM Punk!" chants and went off-script to respond to the crowd.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

“I tried to get him [Punk] here, I’m sorry. He didn’t wanna show up. He wants to sit behind a desk in Los Angeles and talk about a change that he’s too afraid to make himself”

#7 Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns is a WWE Superstar who has always divided opinions. It is no secret that he is one of Vince McMahon's favorite guys, and his mainstream popularity maybe one of the biggest reasons why.

However, The Big Dog has constantly been on the receiving end of criticism from hardcore wrestling fans and pundits due to his limited in-ring abilities and shortcomings on the microphone. On top of that, WWE was hell-bent on pushing him as the face of the company for the past few years.

Now, due to the aforementioned reasons, Reigns was frequently jeered and greeted with "You can't wrestle!" chants, but he generally is not affected by the crowd's hostility. But, on one such occasion, the RAW following Money in the Bank 2016, Reigns was in the middle of a promo congratulating Dean Ambrose for becoming the new WWE Heavyweight Champion, when he snapped back at the crowd and said:

For all the dudes chanting that I can't wrestle, calm down, relax, take a sip of your beer, and shut your mouth.
