The Superstars Vince McMahon Does Not Like

Even if you are popular in NXT or on the indies, it does not mean Vince McMahon will give you a push. If Vince does not like you for whatever reason, you may end up on the bench. So, which WWE superstars are not liked by Vince?

EC3

I simply do not understand this, but rumor indicates that Vince McMahon does not like EC3. Popular channels such as WrestleNews.co have reported Vince is not the biggest EC3 fan, and it has been somewhat noticeable since his arrival on the main roster.

When he came up from the NXT roster, it seemed like EC3 would get a fair shot. He was included in some promotions alongside the other NXT call-ups. Unfortunately, after two Raw matches, EC3 has disappeared into obscurity. A real shame, as he is a genuine talent that is severely underappreciated at this point.

Alicia Fox

It is claimed that Alicia Fox has a problem with substance abuse. According to recent reports, Fox turned up intoxicated at a WWE house show. It is also rumoured she has turned down any help offered by the WWE. Since the news came out, Alicia Fox has gone AWOL from the WWE.

Lio Rush

One of the guys that is plagued by persistent rumors of not being liked backstage, nor being liked by Vince McMahon, is Bobby Lashley’s right-hand man Lio Rush.

Several weeks ago, Mike Johnson from PWInsider claimed that Rush tends to rub people the wrong way. It is claimed Rush can be obnoxious, and has therefore drawn the ire of the WWE Chairman.

Braun Strowman

Despite his popularity among the WWE Universe, Braun Strowman has been lacking opportunities of late. According to Mike Johnson, this could be down to a lack of backstage etiquette.

Mike Johnson claims that Braun Strowman has some problems backstage, more specifically a tendency to arrive late. If this is true, it could explain why Strowman is held back at the moment.

The Good Brothers Gallows and Anderson

Despite their popularity in the indies and their amazing in-ring abilities, we do not see much from Gallows and Anderson. While the pair can be taken seriously by the WWE Universe, the WWE seems to have no interest in making that happen.

There have been no reports of Gallows and Anderson making any missteps backstage, nor is there any talk about them being less than nice to fans. So, you do have to wonder, why does Vince not give them the spotlight they deserve?
