When JBL was in his prime in 2004, he held the WWE Championship for 280 days before being beaten by John Cena at WrestleMania 21. The WWE Hall of Famer has had an illustrious wrestling career and in addition to being a great heel on screen, he had a reputation for being a bully of the locker room.
During his reign as WWE Champion in 2004, fellow wrestler Lance Storm worked for the company as a trainer. That year, JBL almost got into a fight with Storm after the latter made some insulting remarks about JBL during a training session.
During a recent edition of Café de Rene, Rene Dupree revealed that Lance Storm had told the trainees during one training session that JBL is a schmuck. The former WWE Champion somehow got wind of it and went on to confront Storm to the point of almost having a physical scuffle.
“I heard about Lance Storm and Bradshaw almost getting into a fight because Lance Storm basically told his class that Bradshaw was an asshole and then Bradshaw got wind of it probably from Kevin 7even, that f*cking little stooge. And then, yeah, I guess it was at WrestleMania or some sh*t, I guess Bradshaw like confronted Lance.”

Thankfully, JBL and Lance Storm didn’t actually throw down, but things can always get heated backstage in WWE.
