Goons, During RAW, I started thinking of the worst possible matches we'd have to endure. This got me curious as to what other horrors we can come up with. To keep this fun, we need some minor ground rules. No Orton vs Cena or any played out combination of 2 people\teams who we see every single week. If you could maybe see it on TV or it was on TNA, think of something worse. My entry: Cameron vs Eva Marie in a Hell in the Cell 60 man Iron man match.

The Pisscast already has this won. Zach Gowan vs 2014 Abdullah The Butcher. I think it was a Strap/chain Match.

I'm honestly having a tough time picturing anything worse than Sharmell/Jenna Morasca. I mean holy poo poo.

Beyond these fantasy pairings, what are the worst real matches of all time? I wouldn't mind watching the worst of the worst...I love botchamania after all.

Sharmell/Morasca is the infamous "MINUS. FIVE. STARS." match, and there was some Bushwacker Luke match against.... Volkoff? I think? where they were in gowns. Those come up pretty often. E: A quick google tells me I may be mistaken about the latter. Maybe it wasn't a gown match, but I distinctly remember Luke being in something.

The Jake Roberts match flashy_mcflash alluded to, his match with Jim Neidhardt where he went out so drunk he could barely stand. It's from a weird one off ppv called Heroes of Wrestling.

Hogan vs. Warrior from Halloween Havoc 98 is pretty infamous as well. I remember Gene Okerland later saying something to the effect of "If the timing of these two was any worse, they'd have had to restart the match"

Are you thinking of the Bushwhackers vs. Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff match from Heroes of Wrestling, which Bryan gave "Minus all of the stars in the universe, and the universe is infinite"? also I looked up a picture of Nailz and that is not a man who should be called Nailz, his name should be Gary Donaldson or something. I always pictured Nails from Jagged Alliance

Gaz-L posted:And the infamous Hogan/Piper "AGE IN A CAGE" from a year or two prior. “The pinnacle of this icon garbage came in last night’s cage match between Hulk Hogan and Roddy Piper…WCW had the gall to say this was the greatest cage match in history…You’ve got a 46 year old bald movie star wannabe, who looks like Uncle Creepy with a good build, taking on a guy with an artificial hip who hasn’t wrestled a full schedule in ten years. It’s a tribute, in my mind, to the massive egotism of both men and an indictment of WCW’s promotional policy that this match even took place, much less in the main event, when the card was probably the best WCW is capable of having. At the ten-minute mark, they were sucking wind so bad the first three rows passed out of oxygen depravation. It would be funny if it wasn’t so sad… I’m sick of guys claiming to be the icon especially when it usually comes from guys who just didn’t know when to quit. Roddy Piper was my idol when I was a teenager, but that was 20 years ago. Hulk Hogan during his best years was 50% media creation and that was long gone. This match was a slap in the face to every wrestler that takes pride in his profession… On a personal note to Hulk Hogan, you are a household word but so is garbage and it stinks when it gets old too.” – Jim Cornette, Monday Night Raw 10/27/97

Tom McGee vs Kerry Von Erich For reference, Tom McGee: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4zYfaTBLk0 EDIT: He's the guy Bret Hart made look so good that Vince thought McGee was the next Hulk Hogan.
