10 WWE Stars Who Left While On Top

[@MarkieDood]

It has a way of putting things into perspective, that Rocky retired at 32. These days, they don't even let you anywhere near the world title scene until you're like minimum age 36.

[@stokerino1905]

Bret "literally WWF champion on his last night" Hart seems an obvious miss, although any video where you're not forced to mention Montreal is a win in its own right.

[@DJDoubleCee]

I wish Jeff Hardy hadn’t left WWE in 2009 and accepted the extension on his contract. He finally reached main event status by that point.

[@nikobellic8627]

WWE got lucky lol

[@ec906]

Jeff reached for other stuff instead. Unfortunately he’s a child hero that turned out be a loser.

[@zanethind]

Yeah but Jeff did have personal issues which was his own fault tbh

[@zanethind]

Same with Neville, if Vince was going to give him a show headlining program then I really wish he had stayed to complete it

[@jeremymsossy2870]

Me too😭😭

[@vDeadbolt]

I'm honestly surprised that Kurt Angle wasn't on this list. The guy was the World Heavyweight Champ and then left a couple months later.

[@JitteryJackanape]

I feel like Kurt Angle is a good answer for this. He was I think the highest paid star for WWE at the time in 2006. Kurt was THE reason to watch ECW or Raw or Smackdown. He was literally on every brand that year.

[@mjstory1976]

I need a full version of the Cultaholic version of the Hulk Hogan theme 😂

[@gianfrancofarachio1264]

Another 10 WWE Stars: 1)Bret Hart 2)Batista 3)Kurt Angle 4)Sasha Banks 5)The Ultimate Warrior 6)Goldberg 7)CM Punk 8)Michelle McCool 9)Edge (maybe) 10)Bobby Lashley

[@rjamgeek2978]

I was gonna say that CM Punk got fried but technically the guy walk out first, basically what WWE did was cut the contract of a guy who didn't want to be there so it technically count

[@WWChampion16]

I started drumming when he sang an alternate version of Hulk's theme.

[@Cosmic_Gorilla]

How did Moxley/Ambrose not make this list?

[@BmanTheChamp]

Dude was treated like a total joke for most of the time, how is that "leaving on top"?

[@Julian-xj6mh]

Because he can't fucking wrestle

If Brock Lesmar would have stayed and full time He would be record World champion not John Cena and Ric Flair

[@happyhogan40]

The rock wasn't done in 2004 he wanted to wrestle randy savage and I get vince didn't want to bring him in but what shocks me is that Vince nixed the match between him and Rey mysterio

[@zanethind]

I didn't even know him and Rey were supposed to have a program

[@happyhogan40]

@zanethind he wanted to wrestle him at mania 22 but Vince wasn't for it

You cannot possibly convince me that Kevin Nash left wrestling while on top.

[@enigmas4844]

Steve Austin

[@nikobellic8627]

Nothing beats going out on top. Ill never forgive WWE for corbin retiring angle.

[@rhedosaurus2251]

Blame Vince for that one. Angle wanted John Cena to be his final foe, but Vince refused since Angle was still involved with a feud with Corbin.

[@zanethind]

Same

[@zanethind]

​@@rhedosaurus2251yeah I'll always blame Vince for that

[@reimixo]

Interesting choices.

[@wlb20032085]

I love how you all take Brets word that there was supposed to be a Bret/Hogan match but everyone from Hogan to Bruce Pritchard to Vince McMahon himself says no.

[@jeremycastillo8594]

So two sex pests and a yes man should be considered reliable narrators?

[@_Pauper_]

Before reading his book I would have said I believe Bret. Everyone you mentioned is a scumbag. After? Eh, the guy lost a ton of points with me. Especially Prichard who really doesn’t have to be on either side.

[@chrishopkins5651]

Didn't they mention the tug of war photo shoot. That's what has me...but I don't think I seen it so

[@wlb20032085]

He had not been in the big title scenefor like 18 months, and at the time you had the miz cena Hunter Orton Edge taker Hardy Batista punk All getting the title instead of him those 18 months... He had not win a singles title since 2002...

[@Nick-1990]

Seriously Nash was never on top 😅

[@DougMiller2K24]

Best version of Hogan’s theme.

[@TheBuddha337]

Eh. I don't think much would've happened with Neville/PAC in WWE. He wasn't getting any higher on the card.

[@aran8143]

Edge and Bret probably could have been here but it’s a worthy 10

[@EX3mber]

Honourable mention: Aj styles leaving tna in 2013

[@MessianicJewJitsu]

Hogan elected to build Yoko who could have used the credibility

[@soulsnatcher03]

Honestly Trish should've been on this list

How is Trish Stratus not on this list?

[@ryankatz7707]

AEW is booking Bryan Danielson in matches that'll leave him injured

[@iandouglas1162]

Bret Hart and Stone Cold (although Austin left due to his neck injury, so that’s a bit different)

What about Shawn in 98?

Kurt Angle?

Kurt Angle?

[@seankelly4594]

The rock was 32 when he retired he should have been number one on this list

[@Dugga49]

I know he was mentioned in AJ’s portion, but CM Punk was definitely still a top draw when he left

[@WowSuchGaming2009]

No lie I wished booker didn’t leave in 2007

[@ROBken2654]

SUCKA 😂

[@jervisflowers4784]

I'm with the narrator. If I'm on top, I got to bleed it dry... Enjoy all my time in the spotlight!

[@SonnyK248]

It must have grated all the boys who had to job clean for Brock hard from the moment he stepped on the main roster trying to get him over only for him to leave two years later 🤣 The reason they call it doing the favor's is because once you're over they can maybe make money off your ass by you returning it now and again for the next decade. But he just squashed everyone and bailed. The most hilarious ending to it all was he could have used all his momentum to actually make a guy on the way out but his final bout was jobbing to Goldberg who left on the same day...

[@r2deetox813]

i love Booker but no way was he going to be winning and holding a major title for long in wwe

[@Crash88]

Neville left because he was jobbing to Ennis over and over, that goof couldn't wrestle if someone was controlling him in a video game.

[@zachstolpa6521]

Cm punk really should be on this list
