I really hated the ending and the timing of it.

Rey/ADR was way worse plus interminably long.

I just completely zoned out on that match; the AJ finish annoyed me, which I guess is something.

Why the hell can't Del Rio get over? He's a decent enough worker.

Because he's devoid of charisma and now that RR is gone, he has zero redeeming features.

HM: Kurt Angle vs. Bobby Roode, 1/23 Impact Wrestling

Yeah, it was a Kurt Angle Match, but it was really good. At least, I think so.

WMOTYC: Sting vs Magnus in a Contract vs Title match, TNA Genesis 1/23/14

A clusterfuck ending and Magnus is probably the worst champ in recent memory. In any company.

I'll second this. I don't watch a lot of TNA at all but I wanted to tune in for Sting's swan song and it was one of the worst matches I've seen in a long time. I definitely can't remember a worse World Title match I've seen in years.

It's back to the debate of what 'worst' match of the year means. Sting vs. Magnus isn't as bad as Tamina dropping Naomi on her face in a vaccuum, but considering it was supposed to be a big time match, it sucked rear end.

Thirded.

It was unbelievably bad. Stupid, boring, makes your champ look weak, any number of reasons could be given for why this was awful. Fourthed.

I'll agree with the above and throw in my vote for the Sting/Magnus choice. Somehow made the previous godawful clusterfuck AJ farewell aired mere weeks before seem not so bad in comparison.

So in case you think we are joking, here is a YT comment describing the ending:

quote:

That finish was so bad. Like Sting could have rolled out of that sunset five times, made a sandwich, filed his taxes, helped a old lady across the street, put over young wrestlers 8 times, and tap danced on broad way. Over the time that Hue ref over here got into the ring to count 3.

And here is a video of the match:

Also as said above, the only way Magnus won, was when the entire heel roster beat a 54 year old man.

That is some of the most pathetic booking I've seen.

Worst Match of the Year is one where context is absolutely considered. This is far worse of a thing than any normal botchy divas match could be.

It's even worse if you see Kurt Angle's pre match promo where he begs sting not to go.

Of course, you come into a divas match expecting the worst, while with Sting in the ring you'd think he'd know better.

Going back a bit, but I'd like to give HM for Tanahashi, Ibushi and Mistico vs Nakamura, Takahashi and Mephisto from 1/19 Fantasticmania show. There's a few others from that weekend that I apparently need to go back and watch as well.
