Worse no sell of all time

[Steve J. Rogers 0]

-One time Goldberg almost no-sold a shot to the groin, it took a while untill it registered that if he didn't sell it his manhood would be in question

 

-I always loved this hillarious juxtapostion of Giant completely no-selling the Diciples's Apoclypse. Basically Brutus got his arm around Giant's neck, tried to sit down but Giant wouldn't budge so there Brutus is dangling like a moron. And then a few months later Big Show selling an Austin stunner like a pro.

 

Just funny when it comes to no selling or selling a guy's finisher even if its identical

So I have to come up with the worse no sell of all time? Sounds to hard.

 

..

 

RVD flopping around on the mat selling his torso like death after the Five-Star while Hawk gets right back up.

[Guest Staravenger]

Hogan. Vader. Powerbomb

 

Nuff' said. Ruined Vaders career in the states.

 

 

 

More of a comedy one: Flair is doing everything he can to beat up Piper at the 1991 Survivor Series, and Piper on two or so instances no sells and just casually pokes Flair in the eye, who sells it like he's been shot.

I love how in Royal Rumbles if someone gets hit by a Stunner or a Pedigree they get immediately back up so they can be tossed out. Kane at 2002 is probably the best example since he didn't sell the Stunner at all.

 

Dynamite Kid no selling everything in Foley's first match is pretty funny too. Foley goes for his spinning elbow thing and DK just stands there and lets Foley bounce off of him.

I think it's logical really. No one did ANYTHING really to hurt Kane at all, so why should a Stunner knock him senseless?

 

But it was funny at 1999 when HHH simply jumped back to his feet to get clotheslined out.

I believe Animal no sold a tombstone from Kane back in 1997 when he just debuted, and they were making him into a big monster.

[The Niggardly King 0]

I forget which Rumble this is, but Bob Holly kicks Vader in the gut, and Vader gives him a look like he's gonna fuck him up, and Holly just casually walks away, to stomp someone in a corner, while Vader elimnates some jobber.

 

Wrestlemania XIX Jericho vs Michaels...people should know this one. Jericho has worked over Shawn's back the whole match, but later on in the match, Shawn just acts as if he's forgotten about it, and quits selling his back being hurt.

[Guest PlatinumBoy]

How about at WM when HHH pedigreed Ultimate Warrior, and Warrior just jumped right to his feet?

Hogan/Undertaker from This Tuesday in Texas. Undertaker sells NOTHING for Hogan, He no sells an urn shot and pops right back up after getting rolled up up for the pin. Several times throughout the match Taker looks like he is not cooperating with Hogan, like refusing to take an atomic drop and just basically not letting Hogan have anything in the match. I know it was his gimmick but it was funny to watch in a Hogan match

[Guest Staravenger]

I noticed that too. In the first few minutes, it seemed like Undertaker went with nothing Hogan tried, often performing moves while Hogan was doing his own stuff. Undertaker no sold everything too.

 

Just seemed like a giant mess.

 

Edit: That reminds me...has anyone ever no sold Hogan hulking up? By that I mean they interupted it without selling by poking him in the eyes or licking him in the balls?

 

No selling the Hulk Up would've been funny.

The Main Event 2/89

 

Hogan is steaming backstage over Savage attacking him earlier. He storms in on Jim Neidhart and bullies him around asking where Savage is at. Neidhart sells it like he's piss scared. Then, he interrogates The Rockers . . . ditto them. Then, he goes to Bret Hart who just no sells the temper tantrum and says he doesn't know where Savage is. No flinching, no begging, just Bret staring at Hogan wondering what the hell is wrong with him. Fun stuff.

Rock vs Booker T, SummerSlam 2001. Rock's nip-up completely ruined the match and made Booker look totally pathetic. Rock won not long after.

 

Undertaker no-sold everything in late 2001. RIP DDP's career.

 

Another one - Road Warrior Hawk no-selling RVD's five star on Raw.

I dont think that second idea would be very funny at all.

Maybe if Hulk wrestled Patterson.

Great segment. Great, GREAT, segment.

I remember Hawk no selling PG-13's spike pile driver. Guess what Hawk did seconds after the move, yup, he jump right up.

Only one more day and I can finally see this. I guess it can be credited to Hart's poor acting ability.

I'm pretty sure though that Hogan would have no choice but to sell that. I know just the man who SHOULD have used that move in his 96 prime

I still can't remember what Nitro this was from, but I'm assuming some time in late 2000. Jarrett versus Sting and Jarrett puts Sting through a table, only for Sting to get straight back up. A little hazy on details but I still remember thinking 'what the fuck' when Sting got up.

[The Buzz 0]

If I was Sting ...I would no sell Jarrett too.

 

 

Funniest no sell of all time belongs to Warrior getting up from the pedigree two seconds after taking it, and then winning the match about 20 seconds later.

 

Most brutal no sell = Foley getting up after falling 20 feet twice.

 

No sell that made me want to change the channel = Luger no selling BEING HIT BY A BASEBALL BAT BY A 250 lbs man(sting) in the gut on an NWA TNA ppv. Made me wonder where I can get abs that deflect impact from solid wooden objects being swung by big men.

Hawk used to do this all the time ... I remember him doing this to a Jerry Lawler piledriver back in the AWA ... it was part of his gimmick, no-selling the piledriver.

He didn't no sell a baseball bat shot...he no sold EIGHT!

After the first 2-3 I stopped caring.

It was when PG-13 were the white boy rappers for the Nation of Domination.

I think the Hogan/Vaderbomb incident would be the WORST. If it ruins a guy's entire career, well, that's really damn bad. The HHH/Warrior thing isnt' that bad, because, obviously, HH still went on to prosper.

The following is taken from the Wrestlecrap book written by R.D Reynolds:

 

"...Eventually, though, there was no other recourse but to book Hogan vs. Vader, In their very first encounter, Vader unleashed a sneak attack on Hogan, nailing him from behind. He then lifted Hogan high in the air for his patented power bomb, the one that had KO'd Mick Foley, broken the back of a preliminary jobber, and was the E-N-D for anyone unfortunate enough to feel it's wrath.

So, of course, Hogan popped right up.

Didn't even sell the move for a second. Didn't act as though it hurt at all. Made not only Vader look like a total wimp, but also everyone else who had ever taken the move and sold it properly.....

 

He would resurface later in the WWF, but the moment Hogan no-sold the power bomb, Vaders career began a downward spiral from which it would never recover."

 

Page 145, chapter "Hulkster's In The House!"

Nothing has ever, and I don't think will ever, top the Vader-Hogan powerbomb. At least in my book.

 

 

I did like the no sell that Paul Bearer did on the pouring cement. He's buried up to his neck in it, but Taker is coming to save him so he's happy go lucky Paul Bearer once again. He looked like he was in a hot tub rather than a life threatening situation.

check out Royal Rumble 97 (this is fresh in my mind cuz i just watched the tape yesterday)...during the 6 man AAA match before the Rumble match, those dudes were no selling every freaking thing. now I'm no AAA expert, but is that normal or were they havin a REAL bad night?

Probably because all they did was shitty arm drags and whiffing on 75% of everything the tried. Crowd was totally dead too, which doesn't help, and the match lasted TEN MINUTES.

Raz, I knew when you meant ... I'm just saying it wasn't an isolated incident, but something that he had done his entire career.

 

Plus, considering that Lawler's piledrivers were normally sold as ~death~ it seems even worse that Hawk would no-sell one of his, than one from PG-13.
