 What's good y'all? It's your boy Ross back again with another video. So we're gonna check out 10 best times WWE wrestlers went off script. It's always dope when Sometimes the wrestlers have to pull in audible that to go off script and it seems more believable in what they're saying I usually prefer when they do go off script It makes it just that it gives it that a little bit more realism to whatever story promo or segment They're talking about so we're gonna check this out. It's gonna be a dope video appreciate all the love and support Road to cck. Let's get right into it One of the criticisms of modern WWE programming is that the product is far too scripted Fans often complain that promos feel unnatural and they seem written by someone who doesn't even seem to know too much about wrestling That's not where you come from After all most of the greatest promos and segments of all this is why AEW is the home of pro wrestling Time have elements of unscripted material in them, but now it's rare to see a WWE Superstar go off script Yeah, it's a rather risky move for them to do as consequences of doing this can really impact their position on the card Or even get them released now There have been a number of occasions where a superstar has gone off script and as a result It's made the segment even better, but again these instances are still rare particularly as the WWE prefers an overly scripted format for all Their main shows but which were the best off-script moments Well join us now as WrestleMania looks at ten of the best times Script Follow us on Facebook for exclusive lists Number ten Paul Heyman goes off script and performs a ten bell salute for Daniel Bryan Top rivals for Roman Reigns since turning heel in 2020 was Daniel Bryan The two had a number of matches including a title versus career match Which happened to be the last time that Bryan appeared on WWE programming on the following week's spackdown Reigns Paul Heyman and Jey Uso came down to the ring and Heyman performed a ten bell salute for Bryan to Represent his departure from WWE this element of Heyman's promo received a widespread praise from fans And it was even praised by WWE management backstage now interestingly enough this part of the segment was entirely Unscripted and Heyman simply improvised it without any prior warning to anyone even Reigns or Jey Uso now Although a talent doing something of this nature is never encouraged by WWE management Heyman is one of the most gifted promo guys This was this was a fantastic segment You can tell Roman didn't know what was really going on because he was starting to break character Because he was starting to laugh as he was bowing his head. This was a good segment built up great heel heat for Roman Reigns at the time and and Paul Heyman is one of those guys He knows how to deliver a promo so he doesn't need a script and this worked. This was fantastic in the history of WWE so he's allowed to say virtually whatever he likes number nine Alexa Bliss decides to bring a coffee cup down to the ring In 2019 Alexa Bliss debuted a moment of bliss This was an interview segment designed to keep bliss away from the ring for a brief period where she recovered from a Concussion one of the key parts of the interview segments was that bliss would have a coffee cup on her table And she would even bring the coffee cup down to the ringside area with her whenever she accompanied Nikki Cross for a match Now according to bliss the inclusion of the coffee cup into her character was 100% unscripted And she simply believed Vince McMahon would like it. She informed TV Insider that I knew I was gonna be ringside for a particular Match and look disinterested. So I just brought my coffee with me That seems like a Unscripted moment After that because I just stood ringside drinking my coffee Nobody really a stood ringside drinking coffee So I thought when I went backstage Vince would either like it or fire me Number eight Rick flair decides to cut a promo on Randy Orton a leading up to Randy Orton's WWE title showdown with Drew McIntyre at Summer Slam in 2020 Orton would bring back the beloved legend killer persona He would take out a number of legends such as the big show Christian and Shawn Michaels I was loving this run. It was just bringing me back to the the legend killer man The guy was out here taking out legends and punting them man This was I was enjoying this version of Randy Orton The legend that Orton targeted was his former evolution stablemate Rick flair Orton and flair would have a great segment which was filled with continuity and tremendous promo work However, it was revealed by Orton that flair was never supposed to talk in the promo exchange And that flair completely went off script speaking to inside the ropes Orton revealed Rick knows that and I know that and I'll tell you what He was never supposed to grab the microphone from me that night He was just supposed to say a few things under his breath that the handheld camera in the ring may or may not pick up You were supposed to see our facial expressions and then get an idea He was bringing me back in and eventually we had the hug and I turn on him when he grabbed the mic I was thinking ah come on Rick You're not supposed to grab the mic, but then he went on to cut the promo and it was very touching number seven That's our old rips up up now. That was dope. That was that was that was Rick is Rick even though at this present moment He's kind of it's kind of canceled right now, but uh, yeah, man outside of his Things that he's done in the past Rick is Rick flair man If there's anybody that can cut a promo just like that off script is him Beach ball, of course, I know about this one It's been a lot to hijack the show when there's a match or segment that really doesn't interest them One of the ways they've done this is by playing with a beach ball in the crowd And when fans did this at SummerSlam in 2017, this didn't sit well with one particular superstar Cesaro was in the middle of a match when he was teaming with Sheamus against the duo of Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose in the middle of the match fans began to play with a beach ball But this led to Cesaro storming into the crowd grabbing the ball and tearing it apart The moment was completely unplanned and according to Cesaro You receive praise backstage for doing it as management obviously don't like fans hijacking Number six That was smart thing to do cuz you know they were being assholes at the time they were so he was like give me the beach ball Let's get back to the match. I like I like when he did that dressed as Hulk Hogan When the Rock appears on WWE television He is traditionally allowed free reign to discuss whatever he likes. If he is given a script He'll be given bullet points rather than a full-fledged written script However when the Rock appeared on Raw in 2016 He did something that really didn't sit well with Vince McMahon during his appearance The Rock would interact with fans dressed as wrestlers at ringside One of these fans was dressed as the controversial Hulk Hogan The Hogan had been fired from the WWE the year prior after he underwent a racist rank in an elite video Now according to Cesaro, Vince as well as other key members of WWE management Through a huge tantrum backstage as they knew there was nothing they could do about the situation They simply had to witness it play out first hand Number five Xavier Woods cites frustrations in an off-script rant The WWE draft is usually a hot topic backstage with the WWE roster It's been reported that Well, the WWE draft is actually happening this week This Friday as of me recording it Unfortunately, I won't be able to check it out because The person I'm dating is actually coming into town to Houston for the very first time So I'm gonna be showing her around town this weekend and I won't be able to check it out But I will be able to talk about it on Monday That will be the next time I'll actually be able to Bring it up and discuss things on what happened on On the draft on Friday And then I'll also talk about what happens on the draft on Monday this coming Monday So be patient with me guys You know, I do have a life outside of YouTube But I definitely will make sure I talk about the draft And I'm pretty sure you guys will hit me up on Instagram Let me know who got drafted to smack down this week So then the past that superstars aren't aware of where they're being drafted to And they find out the same time as fans are watching at home In 2019's draft Xavier Woods was frustrated that a number of superstars who appeared on his up-up-down-down YouTube channel had been moved to raw Woods was a smackdown superstar which therefore made collaborations a lot more difficult moving forward Whilst appearing on the KO show, Woods began to shoot on the outcome of the draft during his promo And he would state, Honestly, on top of that, will all of this superstar shake up nonsense Or took like 80% of the up-up-down-down roster? And what am I supposed to do? I'm trying to make a successful YouTube channel They're taking everybody from me and honestly, if I don't see Tyler Breeze on smackdown by the end of the show I would lose my mind Now according to Dave Meltzer, these comments from Woods weren't in the initial script Woods had decided to go off script to cite his frustrations on live television It wasn't clear if Woods was punished for going off script However, he did manage to deliver the rant in a way which was in line with his WWE television persona Which was an extremely smart thing for a multiple-tag team champion to do Number four, Ric Flair's controversial line A smackdown before 2016's brand split was a tape show This meant that they could edit out anything they didn't want airing However, thanks to a rise in social media as well as everyone in the arena having a camera phone Any instances of mistakes or superstars going off script were usually captured on camera This was the case during a promo segment between Ric Flair, Charlotte Flair and Natalia Who were all guests on the Ambrose Asylum During the segment, Flair got carried away with a rant about beating Natalia's uncle Bret Hart And during his rant, Flair informed Natalia that she should Ah, this non-PG line from Flair was quite... Oh, did that note this? Oh, did that? Wait! Yo! During his rant, Flair informed Natalia that she should Ah, this non-PG... Did he say kill yourself? No way, he didn't just say that Flair informed Natalia that she should Ah, this non-PG line from Flair was quite... Oh, did he say kill yourself? He pulled a Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 lobby rant Go kill yourself, kid! It rightly edited out, but it wasn't before long that the clip was distributed all over social media So the majority of the fans were fully aware of Flair going drastically off script 3. Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar interact with Jerry Lawler Oh my God, bro! That's... Flair just... She just don't give a damn I just said you and Brock Lesnar just made a believer out of me On the 6th January 2020 edition of Raw, Brock Lesnar declared that he would I think I did see this segment live as WWE Champion Following his major announcement, Lesnar along with Paul Heyman walked over to the Raw commentary team and this is when Lesnar put his hand on Lawler's shoulder and Heyman informed Lawler that he was to say nice things about the WWE Champion And according to Lawler, this part of the segment wasn't planned and he had zero idea that it was gonna happen He would discuss the unscripted moment on his podcast and revealed So all we can see is nothing We can just see the cameras and we just assume that they're, you know, they're seeing us and everything and all of a sudden I feel this hand on my shoulder and I'm like, what the heck? And it's Brock Lesnar and he's just kind of brushing the side and he's walking past me And then I look over to my right and there's there, of course, is Paul Heyman and, you know, he said, come on, come on, King, talk to us about it That's, that's, that was dope I mean, that was just totally off the top of his head and I had no idea they were gonna be there So I saw a picture on Twitter that somebody put up and you could tell from my facial expression that I had no idea that was about to happen Number two, Dean Ambrose goes on script during his babyface turn in 2019 Dean Ambrose's heel turn in 2018 was a complete disaster Fans had no desire to see Ambrose as a babyface and the nature of the storyline that he had with Seth Rollins was rather tasteless even by WWE standards To make amends, WWE would turn Ambrose back to a babyface on the road to WrestleMania 35 and to do this, Ambrose would confront Rollins in the ring and he would inform Rollins to slay the Beast This was a reference to Rollins' upcoming match against Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 35 However, this line was completely unscripted According to Dave Meltzer, WWE Oh man, bro They, they, they ruined him with this fucking bean mask on I'm just like, oh Jesus They had a good heel turn and they, they botched it completely Planned something else entirely but Ambrose wasn't feeling it so he simply decided to do his own thing This was around the time that Ambrose was getting set to leave the WWE so he felt invincible and he certainly wasn't gonna say something that he didn't feel was a right fit for his character At number one, Roman Reigns tells the fans to shut up A Roman Reigns during his babyface run was often met with a negative response from fans It was rather common for Reigns to simply ignore the negative response as he was the top babyface in the WWE and WWE simply didn't wanna draw attention to the negativity However, there was one occasion in 2016 when Reigns just had enough of the crowd being against him and he would fire back at the crowd with the completely unscripted line in his promo This took place during a promo segment Reigns was having with WWE Champion Dean Ambrose As during the segment, the crowd began to chant, you can't wrestle at Reigns This was when Reigns decided to go off script and state, for all the dudes chanting that I can't wrestle, calm down Relax, take a sip of your beer and shut your mouth Yup, I remember that And that's the Roman we wanted Right there, not scripted, believable That's the Roman we wanted Right there, it was right there All they had to do was just let him be himself Oh my God, man Imagine if we would have had the Roman we got now then Gold To Reigns's credit, he worked as a crowd toned it down quite dramatically following his outburst and Reigns and Ambrose were able to continue the promo without being heckled by the fans in attendance But they have it folks, 10 of the best fans to WWE superstars When they go off script, the product's better sometimes The Ric Flair part I mean, I know us growing up You know, playing online games, we go kill yourself all the time But when you hear it on screen and especially saying it to a woman I don't know about that Flair But yeah, man Hey, most of the time the off scripted moments are usually the best moments in WWE in professional wrestling in my humble opinion But comment down below, let me know If you guys agree with me that WWE needs to let their wrestlers go off script a little bit more Give them bullet points, let them create I think that's what AEW does, you know I feel like in AEW, if you're not a good promo, they'll, you know, they'll script you a little bit more But they want you to come off more believable And that's what I get from AEW With WWE, I don't get that At least not with too many wrestlers I feel like some wrestlers get privileges and then the other wrestlers, they gotta go verbatim from the script And I think you can work with that even with a PG rating Cause WWE is still PG and AEW is TV 14 You can still go off script and it works You can still do it, just, you know, make sure they're not saying too many wild things for TV regulation purposes And it can still work So comment down below, let me know if you guys think they should go off script more Appreciate all love and support Road to 60K, appreciate y'all kicking in with me I'll see y'all on the next one Peace
