  3. What's your favourite 'awful' match to rewatch?
BazzaPersonal 2 weeks ago#1
I find it to be a guilty pleasure to watch awful matches. My personal favourite is Scott Steiner vs Triple H at Royal Rumble 2003. 

The whole match is just hilarious with Scott getting gassed about 2 minutes in, the crowd going from supporting Steiner, to completely shitting on his every move and Hebner, JR and King becoming increasingly flustered.

If you have any others you'd like to share I will definitely check them out.

Goldberg/Lesnar at WM 20 is quite fun to watch even if the match is awful as the crowd are just shitting all over it and its obviously getting to both wrestlers

Ah reminds me, a while ago on here we were discussing said match, and everyone was shitting on the horribly slow opening. Some guy comes in and says "the match was FANTASTIC. you all just didn't understand the brilliant PSYCHOLOGY."

I mean... yikes.

That Lesnar/Goldberg match was a waste though. We had these 2 in their prime and we get that shit.

Anyways, I always get a kick out of that Kane/Big Show match on Raw 2006, where they were just chain wrestling.

Came in to say Steiner--HHH. From the crummiest version of Suplex City possible to Scott's sexy purple thong, it's such a glorious wrestling abortion. And it goes on for so long, PLUS a post-match beatdown, and it's on the same card as Angle-Benoit, it's just...fabulous

The kennel from hell match between AL Snow and Big Boss Man. The match is slow as fuck, and the whole execution of the gimmick is so bad. It's like the crowd is confused the whole time, and the dogs they bring in are pissing everywhere and humping each other while JR tries to sell it like "look at those vicious, bloodthirsty Rottweilers!"

Edit: didn't read the topic, saw someone else already mentioned it.

How about Michael Cole vs Jerry Lawler?

I've actually never seen The Chamber of Horrors match or Hogan/Warrior 98.

My favorite is probably the Sting/Abyss Casket Match.

A ton of bad older matches are fun to rewatch though. Abdullah the Butcher, Cactus Jack before he knew what he was doing, ECW clustermesses, etc.

Possibly the worst WM match ever, but it's such a fucking car crash. I love at the beginning when Elmer punches Adrian and then falls onto his own ass. Big fat dude with no balance at all at that stage in his life.

This was many people's 2nd best wrestlecrap match of all time for a long time (behind Chamber of Horrors of course). It got real, real fast, and Sting really looked dead laying across the casket!

I saw The Tupelo Concession Stand Brawl as a child but haven't rewatched it as an adult. The Harlem Heat/Public Enemy match listed earlier was a tribute to that match. Actually I don't know if that even goes here. That was a serious business back in the day lol!

There was The Battle at New Orleans match from Mid-South that included a young Sting, Eddie Gilbert and all of those guys that included flying beer kegs but I've only seen highlights of it.

    Hogan/HBK obviously belongs on any list but the reason it never occurred to me is because that was more of a shoot in my mind. By definition that's what it was even though shoots are more associated with a guy not selling instead of overselling. HBK was shooting the with the same shoe, just on the other foot. HBK put an original spin on an old trick. That really is unique match lol!

    Jay Leno and DDP vs Hogan and Bischoff. 

    What makes this match for me is the way Tony Schiavone sells Leno's moves, especially his arm wringer on Hogan. 

    To Tony's credit he makes probably the best attempt anyone could possibly make in selling such a ridiculous scenario of Leno in a wrestling match. What's even more hilarious is that even though they're in front a crowd full of bikers, they're actually into the match and pop for everything Leno does. It's bad but still manages to be entertaining.

    True but they REALLY made this one funny because they just couldn't hold it together and both just said fuck it basically and laughed and made jokes throughout. My favorite part of the match is when JR just starts laughing and genuinely says to King "This is hideous... this is hideous, King!" and they are both cracking up.
