Guest goodhelmet

I'm going to throw out a couple

 

jake roberts-rick martel blindfold match

sgt. slaughter- hulk hogan (pathetic premise behind a bad match)

undertaker-bossman (hell in a cell; an insult to the name)

The Allied Powers (Luger & Bulldog) vs. Eli & Jacob Blue (Sp?) - WM 11

 

Undertaker vs. King Kong Bundy - WM 11

 

Tito Santana vs. The Mountie - WM 7

 

Those are some that came to mind.

What's so horrible about the Wrestlemania VII blindfold match? The crowd was super-hot throughout, it settled a long running feud, and I found Rick Martel's comical antics (Kicking at the air, attempting a backbody drop, running chest first into the ropes, attacking the referee...) entertaining.

 

As for worst Wrestlemania match ever, it has the be the hell in a cell from WM XV, hands down. There are some other awful matches, but I wouldn't consider them among the worst ever if they were only a 2-3 minutes long

What?

 

No mention of the terrible Bret Hart v Bob Backlund match from WM11?

 

Geez, 30 or so minutes of tedious "action".

                -=Mike

 

...Chyna v Ivory was awfully horrible.

Bret Hart Vs Bob Backlund at Wrestlemania XI was only 10 mins or so long. It was ok.

 

Other dreadful mania matches that havent been said:

 

Ultimate Warrior Vs Hercules (WM IV)

Hulk Hogan Vs Andre the Giant (WM IV)

Hacksaw Jim Duggan Vs Bad News Brown (WM V)

Roddy Piper Vs Bad News Brown (WM VI)

Doink Vs Crush (WM IX)

Bodydonnas Vs Godwins (WM XII)

Most of the card at WM XV was dreadful bar X-pac/Shane McMahon and the main event.

Rikishi and Kane vs Road Dogg and X-Pac (WM 2000)

It really is hard to get any worse then Bossman v. Undertaker at Wrestlemania 15. Crush v. Doink and Hogan v. Yokozuna from Wrestlemania 9 did as well. Hercules v. anyone always sucked as well.

Undertaker vs. Undertaker was 94 summerslam. UT vs. Bossman HIAC is by far the worst WM match ever.

Hercules vs. Billy Jack was ok.

As was Hercules vs. Steamboat & Hercules vs. Earthquake.

Hercules vs. Haku at WM V was actually pretty good.

LOD vs. Power & Glory was too short to be bad.

 

That leaves Warrior/Hercules, as Herc's lone awful Wrestlemania match.

Undertker vs. Sid form Wrestlemania 13 (I think)

Put me to sleep and it was the freakin MAIN EVENT.

 

Taker vs. Bossman sucked

 

Roberts vs. Martel blindfold match was such a horrible idea.  Wonder why it hasn't been done again?

 

Macho Man vs. Crush "Falls Count anywhere"  WM10

Boring as hell.  

 

The total crap that was the main event of WM9

Bret Hart vs. Yokozuna... Then

Hogan vs. Yoko - Hogan has no trouble beating Yoko thus making Bret Hart look totally unworthy of being a main eventer.

No...They made Bret look like he could beat Yoko but Fugi threw the salt...and Hogan just countered Fugi's move that both Gave and cost Yoko the title.

 

Worst Matches....

 

Undertaker Matches

Undertaker Vs Sid (13)

Undertaker Vs Giant Gongalez (9)

Undertaker Vs Bossman (15)

Undertaker Vs KingKongBundy(11)

 

Main Events

Hulk Hogan Vs Andre The Giant (3)-Historic but still stank.

Bam Bam Bigelow Vs L.T (11)-As far as Celeb matches go...Decent but for WM Main Events? Horrible.

Undertaker Vs Sid (13)-I blame Shawn.

Hulk Hogan Vs Sgt. Slughter (7)-Offensive and dull.

if anyone ever books Bossman-Taker ever again, they should immediately be fired. Oh, the Doink-Dink matchfrom WM10 was pretty wretched also.

Guest Smark Dudley
Hulk Hogan Vs Andre the Giant (WM IV)

First off, it was Wrestlemania III not IV.

 

Wrestling wise, the match was poor.. but the emotion behind the match will never be equalled, so I have to disagree with you on it being one of the worst  Wrestlemania matches ever.

Smark Dudley, Hogan faced Andre in the WM 4 Tourney as well, in a match that was far inferior.  So....think about how bad THAT was ok.

Here's my top ten:

 

10. T&A/Headcheese, WM 16- AWFUL, AWFUL match with an even lamer heat segment on a friggin block of cheese.... what fucking joke.

 

9. Hogan/Slaughter, WM 7- The angle behind this was almost as offensive as the match. I think I fell off after Sarge had Hogan in the damn Cobra clutch for what felt like FOREVER.

 

8. Hogan/Andre, WM 3- Historically significant, yes. Good match? No. This was just a boring pile of horseshit with insane heat.

 

7. Terri/Kat, WM 16- THESE two on the biggest show of the year wrestling? WHAT THE FUCK?

 

6. Chyna/Ivory, WM 17- No, Ivory can't carry no-talent sloths.

 

5. Undertaker/Giant Gonzalez, WM 9- I think this very match caused me to stop watching wrestling for a couple of months because it was so horrible.....

 

4. Sable/Tori, WM 15- Betcha forgot about this stinker, didn't ya?

 

3. BBB/Gargoyle vs The Clowns, WM 10- Man... who in their right mind thought this was a good idea?

 

2. Undertaker/Sid, WM 13- This just summed up the awful nature of the card aside from Austin/Hart.

 

1. Undertaker/Bossman, WM 15- Throw my hat in for the execution of the next dipshit to EVER book UT/Bossman ever again.

Roberts vs. Martel blindfold match was such a horrible idea.  Wonder why it hasn't been done again?

 

Maybe because the whole purpose gimmick was for storyline purposes.

 

Martel blinds Roberts, so Martel enters a blindfold match to 'see' (well, not really) what it feels like.
