In 1996, Kevin Nash (Diesel) and Scott Hall (Razor Ramon) were on their way out of the WWE and headed for the company's rival promotion, WCW.
But before Nash and Hall bolted, Nash had one last match at a WWE live event against longtime friend Shawn Michaels. At the time, HBK and Hall were faces while Nash and Triple-H were heels.
Perhaps most importantly, though, Hall, Nash, Michaels and Triple H were all known as "The Kliq," a group with an incredible amount of backstage influence in the then-WWF.
So, after the match between Nash and Michaels, Hall and HBK, the two faces, embraced in the middle of the ring.
No big deal, right? Not until Triple-H and Nash joined in, and two heels and two faces hugged it out in front of a packed crowd at Madison Square Garden, making everyone wonder what on Earth they just witnessed.
After all, bad guys aren't supposed to be friends with the good guys.
Needless to say, WWE officials weren't very pleased.
