One former WWE Champion who has been often accused of backstage bullying is JBL. His name recently cropped up when Kurt Angle was discussing backstage ribbing on ‘The Kurt Angle Show’. The WWE Hall of Famer revealed that JBL just used to verbally tease everyone.
It is a well known fact that many wrestlers physically ribbed one another and many pulled off unwanted pranks. Angle explained that the former WWE Champion never indulged in drastic ribs and was always involved in vocal harmless ribs.
“JBL just, he verbally ribbed everybody. He didn’t do a lot of ribs, but he was very vocal, and you know, he was a bit of a bully. I mean, He’s harmless; he doesn’t mean to be offensive.”
