10 Shockingly Bad WWE Matches Nobody Talks About 

Saying Moolah had “a few controversies” is a crazy understatement

What made Rock vs Cena Part ll unmemorable is that it was just unnecessary, It defeats the purpose of WM 28's "once in a lifetime" tag.

Fabulous Moolah winning the women’s titles from Ivory (despite the fact she was 76 years old) has to be one of the most unnecessary title wins ever imo.

The 2023 Summerslam match between Ronda Rousey and Shayna Bazler is definitely not talked about enough. Worst match of 2023 in my opinion.

Seth Rollins Vs The Fiend in Hell In A Cell was a disaster from start to finish.

I heard that Ashley Massaro wanted to go down to developmental to improve her in ring skills, but Vince refused because he wanted to get her on TV as quickly as possible. I felt bad for Ashley because she was actually passionate about the business and wanted to make an impact in the wrestling ring, but she was thrown in the lions den because Vince got impatient.

The Rock ending CM Punk’s 434 day WWE Title run still leaves a foul taste in my mouth to this day. From 2011 to 2013, Punk was the hottest thing going in WWE and made the company interesting at a time when the product was objectively bad. He really deserved to main event WrestleMania at least once, but WWE decided to completely kick him out of the main event at the expense of having that “twice on a lifetime” nonsense rematch with Rock and Cena which nobody asked for and blatantly lying dead to the fans. SMH.

1:36 "A few controversies under her name" ... that would be a massive understatement when it comes to discussing Moolah's past alleged transgressions in stymying women's wrestling in the 1970s and 1980s.

1999 was an interesting year for The Big Boss Man. Hung to death Kidnaps Pepper and fed to Al Snow Stole Big Show's Dad's casket

I don’t think anybody remembered the triple threat women’s title match at WrestleMania 18 since it followed Rock vs. Hogan.

Shane: “dad, can I be a wrestler?” Vince: “no, son. You have absolutely zero talent.” Shane: “but I can jump good..” Vince: 🤔🤔🤔

Great Khali vs Rey Mysterio? Khali squashed Mysterio. It was clear as to how Khali was. And it just made Mysterio look very weak, as champion.

The problem with The Rock vs Cena 2 was that their first match was supposed to be their first & last & we already knew Cena was gonna win but I don’t think it’s that bad of a match. And Same with The undertaker vs Shane McMahon the only problem I have that match was Cole quoting “for the love of mankind”

Moolah just couldn't let go of her glory days. Poor Ivory

"a few controversies" biggest Moolah understatement in the world

DX vs The Bothers Of Destruction will always be on my mind when talking about the worst match in WWE history. That match should’ve happened 10-20 years ago it was so unbearable to watch and the commentators tried to keep people hooked on the match but it didn’t work

Just about any Roman Reigns title defense. Unbearably slow pacing, Reigns spends 40% of the match yelling at the audience and, of course, predictable Bloodline interference

Undertaker vs Goldberg comes to mind

Jacqueline deserved better in WWE. She was one of my favorite female wrestlers

Mickie James, Amy Dumas, Trish Stratus, Lisa Morelli, and Jackie Moore are true legends and Ashley Massaro deserved better than that

Undertaker vs shane McMahon at wrestlemania 32 didn't make sense just for the fact that shane lost but he still was allowed to run raw and the stipulation that if undertaker lost he wouldn't be able to wrestle at wrestlemania again having that apart of the match was a complete waste of time.

Chris Jericho vs William Regal - Dutchess Of Queensbury Rules Match. Ohhhh boy.

Also, David has to *beat* Goliath; but Vince *never* got that...

Lita vs Trish vs Jazz shouldn't be on this list. Match was brilliant.

John Tenta's first SummerSlam: *Hulk Hogan*. John Tenta's last SummerSlam: *THAT*... 🤣🤣🤦‍♂🤦‍♂

That clothesline Golga did that knocked down every member of Kaientai needs to be in a 2K game.

RIP John Tenta

Even more sickening, that was actually *Mickie's* blood pouring into Trish's mouth; she got her nose busted hardway during Trish's attempted rescue of the kidnapped Ashley...

Both Cena VS Kevin Federline matches. They just let Cena get his win back

I talk about Oddities Vs Kaientai; i loved it.

Giant Silva ended up bouncing at a Bar in lower Manhattan, I would always forget who he was but I remember now. He's a big big man

As an actual mixed martial artist it saddens me when people say Shane’s punches are horrible when in reality they are some of the cleanest jabs and strikes ever seen on a pro wrestling tv show

6:45 "rest hold mania" would have been waaaaaay better

WCW not even briefly putting the title on Bulldog during his feud with Vader was asinine.

Am I the only one hearing Vincent Kompany at 1:21?

Rock vs John Cena part II at WM 29 made no sense when this match should've been one & done feud

Alot of women from the Divas Search/Divas era were terrible wrestlers. No matter how nice and sexy they were.

I love the Oddities vs Kai En Tai. ( summerslam 1998 was the 1st summerslam I saw, and has remained my favourite) and that match IS fun, anyone I've ever known who watched it, loved it. sure, years go on, but memories last forever. Bulldog vs Rock, c'mon, he did that awesome bump and worked despite his spinal issues due to that awful fall in Fall Brawl ( no one told the talent about the trap door) not Davey Boy's fault.

Some matches are not worth talking about.

That first match felt so 90s I felt around for my trapper keeper

The undertaker & Kane vs Triple h & Shawn Michaels 2018 in Saudi Arabia . should release from WWE ' history like Chris Benoit .

Wrestlelamia needs to do a part 2 to this cause there’s so many more matches you need to talk about

Oddities vs Kientai wasn't that bad, It was a fun little filler match and the crowd was very into it.

I'm still shocked Moolah could even wrestle at almost 80. My grandmother in her 60's could barely get around

Putting Trish vs Lita vs Jazz on right after Hogan vs Rock was the absolute death spot.

Honestly, it's not too late to run back that Trish/Lita/Jazz match.

THANK YOU. Finally someone giving Shane vs Taker what it deserves. NOTHING XD

I always said Wrestlemania 29 main event should have been a triple treat Rock vs Cena vs Punk it would have been different end 10 times better !!!

I’m surprised when wrestling RU-vid channels makes lists like these no one says rock vs hulk hogan at wwe no way out 2003.

I remember the 98 oddities match..🤣🤣

Rock vs cena 2 might have meant something if cena actually didnt still win 95% of his matches between the two wrestlemania's while crying about his "bad year".

*LOL notice how most of these bad matches are from Attitude Era*

I’ll never forget when Triple H snatched Jacqueline’s shirt off on live tv.

For WrestleMania 29, they should have added CM Punk to the Main Event, it would have been better, with Cena not being the same since his loss to The Rock last year and CM Punk refusing to let his status as the best in the world be taken by Rock or Cena

As cool as seeing Shane McMahon jump off the cell was, I kinda think it was a rip off of Undertaker throwing Mick Foley off the cell. Yes, I know WWE has tried to copy this stunt many times before this match happened, but this one was so obviously a rip off considering the fact Michael Cole made a reference to it on commentary after McMahon jumped off the cell.

All 5 star classics compared to Stevie Richards Vs Tyson Tomko at Unforgiven 2004

Miz cena main event deserves more credit knowing miz was concussed for the most of it now

Rest-Holdmania was right there

1:15 not in a good position? LOL. Look at that body. I miss that.

Oh there will be a 3rd match between Cena and the Rock. The backstage rumor points to Rock defeating Cody Rhodes for the WWE Universal title on Night 1 of WM. Cena defeats the Rock for the WWE Universal title on Night 2 and the title goes up for a tournament starting the first SD after WM. Cody wins back the title but there will be a heel turn involved.

Ivory's feud with Moolah is legendary and deserves to be brought up a lot more for good reasons - the promo work was amazing!

Shane was a daredevil around the year 2000

I think wrestlelamia should do the same with great matches no one talks about

I completely forgot about Undertaker and Shane tbh

Actually I thought the match with keientai Vs oddities was alot of fun & done quite well it was the right amount of time everyone looked ok oddities took control of it then keientai took control of golga double teamed him which looked ok then golga made the hot tag then it was the right finish so it was fine I've seen alot worse matches then that also it was at a time were you actually enjoyed wrestling it was a fun time & didn't find it boring not like alot of matches that happen at the moment

Mania 18 Women's match was amazing. Not as good as 19 though. I prefer that match over Hogan vs Rock.

WM32 was the most cursed Wrestlemania. So many injuries led them to booking a patched together Mania. If something could go wrong, it did as they headed towards the show of shows. I don't blame WWE for that one.....but getting Mania tickets is really a shot at the dark. I went to 31.....yea, I wasn't happy at all with that go home RAW. Ended up ok, thankfully but oofff.

Like you said with “Once in a Lifetime” part 2, John Cena’s story with him battling his own character & knowing he wasn’t the same after that loss. Would’ve been a great story. However, Vince clearly made the wrong decision with that finish if he didn’t bury Punk in the process after WM 28. In the buildup to the WM29 main event, he buried Punk who was the perfect candidate to carry this company as a HEEL, meanwhile knowing how important Cena was to the business as a babyface, if you were going to have Cena lose…maybe not kill CM Punk’s reign in the process. 🤦🏽‍♂️ It killed the whole buildup & passion with their rivalry Just make it a triple threat & then have Cena win…but no Cena losing at 28, came with Punk being disrespected at the Royal Rumble & Cena being left without a heel. Not to mention Cena couldn’t turn heel because the company was so dependent on him from an economic standpoint. Cena wins the title again at 29, the WWE gains a full-time champion again as a babyface…however now is left without a heel capable of dueling Cena without becoming stale, because they ruined Punk. Not to mention both matches weren’t psychological masterpieces or memorable at all because their move sets weren’t compelling. Vince will forever be an imbecile during the PG era.

Idc. The Rock vs John Cena part 1 and 2 were awesome. Can’t change my mind🤷🏽

The Rock Vs Cena 2?! Nah! That was a dope main event. I was there. Y’all trippin hard!!!

Poor Chavo Guerrero. His WWE run didn't go well at all.

Once in a lifetime..the 2nd cena vs rock match made no sense.

You're WAY too complimentary about Moolah; and she *would* like to have No Mercy '99 removed from the history books? She died in 2007...

Shane vs Undertaker was an awful match that clearly showed me that neither of those guys had it anymore. It was a painfully slow and plodding punch fest that left me snoozing rather than cheering akd when Shane went up top I knew there was no way Taker was going to take that bump, and he didn't.

Giant Silva looks like a late 90’s version of the Great Khali. Both guys are over 7 feet tall and they can’t wrestle to save their lives. The only differences between the two are Khali is Indian, Silva is Brazilian, Silva was never a monster heel in WWE but Khali was, and finally Silva is older than Khali by 11 years.

Rock vs Cena part 2 may be hard to watch but it did not deserver to on this list

8:13 jeez😂😂😂 that bump killed baby girl. Her head throttled the mf ring😂😂😂

9:46 wtf was Shane trying to do??!! No one was down there??! I’m so lost lol

0:33 Between big men and small men, which size men are usually the good guys and bad guys?

Worse WRESTLEMANIA match would be WRESTLEMANIA 16 with a Fatal 4 Way Elimination Match between Triple H vs The Rock vs Big Show vs Mick Foley around 2000 for the WWE TITLE with Stone Cold and The Undertaker out of WRESTLEMANIA. Especially with The Undertaker out due to injury before Unforgiven, followed by Stone Cold 2 months later around Survivor Series 1999.

How do you make sure a talent doesn't get over? Put anybody with a way past his prime jerry lawyer.

Any suplex city Brock match is absolute trash in my opinion.

Ashley Massaro 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵!

Unpopular opinion: the rock needs to stop returning

RIP Ashley.

Rock Vs Cena 2 at WrestleMania 29 should never have happened

Taker Vs Giant Gonzales at WM IX should have been in this list. The match was terrible awfull an the finish was so stupid

I love the Oddities vs Kaientai lol

As a cm punk fan his match vs the rock at summerslam was really bad and it was bad because the booking sucked and made no sense cm punk was just someone who Vince didn’t get

You missed Undertaker Vs Goldberg

You said at the end of the Ivory/Moolah clip that it's a match you are sure that both *would* like erased from the history books....uhh...Moolah has been dead for 15 years. She would have no opinion on the matter. It's also funny you say that "nobody talks about" these matches, but the first few of them are talked about all the time, at least on Wrestling Bios.

Something’s are better left forgotten.

Nobody talks about them because they were bad

Shockingly Bad matches everybody Talks about #1 Undertaker vs Goldberg 😂

I love the oddities summerslam match, icps debut

What about Micheal Cole Vs Jerry Lawler at Mania that match was horrendous

Muhammad Haasan wrestling careee got ruined forever

Bret hart vs vince at wm 26 comes to mind

once in a lifetime. is a definite screw u to the fans. forcing us to see the same match a 2nd time.

Sting vs Undertaker should've happened at WM 32
