The Metal Maniac 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2004 The Hayabusa one is worse. I mean, his head hits and his momentum stops COLD. Then he kinda unfolds. It's SICK. He looks dead, legit. I think Kurt got knocked out legit Didn't he get a pretty major concussion from that? And someone said the Pedigree botch looked like a TD '91 botch...somehow, I would think that if that was intended to be a TD '91, it wouldn't be a botch; it'd be the best sell ever.

Open the Muggy Gate 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2004 I think that's when Hayabusa got paralyzed. If he did, that's definitely worst than Sid's botch... although that Sid botch was SICK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Open the Muggy Gate 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2004 I just remember a pretty funny one. Cade and Jindrak vs. Flair and Batista. This was supposed to Cade, Jindrak, and Maven's big moment... and Maven screwed it up. When Ric Flair rolled up either Cade or Jindrak, Maven was supposed to clothesline him over so Flair could get pinned. Maven went to clothesline him...and his arm went over Flair's head! He still had to sell it for the 3 count. Funny stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Downhome 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2004 Isn't that where Hayabusa got paralized? Yes that's right. While I know that Hayabusa's is a lot worse in terms of the injury he sustained, the Sid one is worse visually, to me at least. I just hate broken bones, it really gets to me. The Hayabus one though, is up there for me, those are the two big ones in wrestling for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adam 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2004 The Hayabusa botch is the most insane thing I have ever seen. I had to watch it a dozen times over to actually comprehend what I was seeing. Insanely sick, but, like many sick things, it just makes you want to watch it again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBigSwigg 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2004 Does anyone else remember the Steiner "phantom low blow" on RVD on RAW a few months ago? Steiner makes up for it, but it's still horrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBigSwigg 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2004 I've never seen the Steiner botch either. How about Smackdown right around the beginning of the McMahon-Helmsley era, Test is doing a run-in to get to HHH and goes to slide under the bottom rope and smashes his face on the bottom rope, shattering his nose in the process. Also not really a botch per se, but during a D-X run in, Billy Gunn slides under the bottom rope, and slides about 3/4 of the way across the ring I thought he was going to slide clear out the other side. I coulda sworn I've seen a match where someone actually did something along those lines of from one side of ring to other. Damn I forgot. dude, that's really fucking far....how the hell did he do that? Isn't a WWF ring 18 feet across!? Just so you know, a WWE ring is 20x20 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest M. Harry Smilac Report post Posted April 21, 2004 An old nitro I have on a tape somewhere were goldberg goes to do his aggressive grab the ropes and lean forward yelling schtick but when he goes to grab the ropes and pull himself forward he loses his grip and slips backwards and does a little roll to play it off. Me and my brother must have watched it over and over 20 times which lead to us being in pain from laughing so much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ace309 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2004 Not really a botch, but I loved the fan knocking over the ladder during Eddy/RVD IC Title. First of all, the fact that a drunken ass could get past security was amazing. Second, he looked just like Austin. Third, Eddy beat the piss out of him.

iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2004 Anyone else remember Hunter's messed up pedigree on Goldberg? That was pretty funny. I remember that night cause something happened and I was in a lousy mood and I was barely watching Raw cause I was on the computer at the same time. So when Evolution did the beatdown, I quickly glanced over to watch HHH randomly yell something like "IT'S ALL OVER NOW!!!" and then they proceed to TOTALLY fuck up the Pedgiree. That had me dying and it made my night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redbaron29 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2004 Without a doubt the botch that I will forever remember in recent History. Wrestlemania XX- THE BIGGEST STAGE OF THEM ALL!!! The Cruiserweight open probably had the potential to be one of the most surprisingly good matches of the night. The entrances begin. Ultimo Dragon Comes out.....AND SLIPS!!! Everyone who I was watching it with was laughing at that point. Dragon regains his composure only to get into the ring....go to the top turnbuckle....AND SLIP again. Either he was way too nervous, or he was hanging out with RVD in the back. Without a doubt I have seen Ultimo wrestle for the better part of 8 years, and now, no matter what I've thought of his work before he will forever be known as the guy who fell down at wrestlemania. Also a classic botch in the "Attitude Era" I believe either the Cactus Jack & Chainsaw Charlie vs. the New Age Outlaws, or just Cactus vs. Chainsaw"(I think it was was Jack & Charlie v.NAO. Somebody look up the tapes and get back to me!) . But the high spot was Jack being thrown into a dumpster at ringside and a ton of packing peanuts flew into the air, basicly blowing the spot.

Masked Man of Mystery 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2004 On the FMW Rule the Asylum DVD, the first match is Wing Kanemura vs Mark Awesome. Awesome gets his leg caught in the ropes for like 5 minutes and Kanemura's throwing chairs at it and kicking it and it just took foever to get him out. I think he was trying to do a placha. And he ended up winning the bloddy match after he power bombed Kanemura just about every way you can(and they called it an Awesome Bomb every time on the commentary despite the obvious differneces). Also, on the XPW Exit Sandman DVD, there's an extra match involving Youthanasia, SOuthern Comfort, and somebody other team. At one point, two guys try to do an Asai moonsault on the same tope rope and collapse it. The match goes on and people just look rediculous with that rope broken and them entereing and exiting the ring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Papacita 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2004 BUMP! Regal has his opponent by the arm, and gestures to tag Scotty, who does his bouncing on the ropes bit to indicate his excitement at this idea. Sadly, Scotty was too excited and slipped from the rope to the floor. The whole crowd started laughing, even Regal started to smile. Scotty got back up, looked embarrassed, then tagged in. September 13th, 2001 edition of Smackdown. I have that botch on tape. Dude, just out of interest, was that actually a botch. I thought it was, but I was watching it in the pub and Muggy thinks it was deliberate. Can you clear this up for us? It was accidental - Scotty slipped on the bottom rope when he was coming down. The announcers covered it as being a deliberate "crowd-pleaser" by S2H. Already covered, but yeah, he did that rope slip purposely. I had seen him do it more than a few times dating back to a house show in 2000. Edit: You know, now that I think about it, I remember him doing it as a member of Too Much as well back in 98 or 99. Either way, he did it purposely. As for botches... I recently saw Taker/Hogan from Tuesday in Texas for the first time, and at one point Taker's coming off the ropes or something and he just slips and falls. Had it happened to anyone else, it really wouldn't have been funny, but considering that Taker was in his invincible stage, I found it funny as hell. It's also one of the few old school botches that I've ever seen...or paid enough attention to notice anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DMann2003 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2004 Not a botch per se...

Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2004 Dammit people, it's the Steiner Splat. Get it right. I just remembered one from late 2000 when the Hardys were facing Evil Dubbed Kaientai on one of the holiday Raws (I believe the one that had Austin versus Regal with Stephanie as the referee) and Jeff tried to jump to the top rope for the Whisper in the Wind and totally KILLED himself, falling sternum-first onto the top of the ringpost and then splattering onto the floor. As loudly as the crowd goes "OHHHH!" for the wrong reason, and as concerned as Matt looked, I was shocked he was okay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
