Nailz’s focus on working in WWE was clear. But in his whole spell in the promotion, he hated working with Vince McMahon. He always complained about getting paid less by the company. Following that, things even got physical between both individually. And that finally brought an end to his career.
8. Gail Kim
Gail Kim was highly unimpressed by the behaviour of the whole McMahon family. She also openly accused the whole family of being racist towards her. Kim wasn’t actually fond of working under Mr McMahon and then, she never got booked in the marches she deserved, despite being really talented.

3. CM Punk
