Most boring matches ever?

Recommended Posts

I'm not talking BAD matches, but just plain old BORING matches. The ones that feel like they're two weeks long.

 

Like Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Goldust at Survivor Series 1995. Literally nothing happens for 12 minutes until Goldust hits his finisher and wins.

 

What's the most boring match you've ever seen?

Undertaker vs Kane at Judgment Day 1998

Yeah, this is a good pick. Even with Austin out there the crowd just dies and the match goes for about 20 minutes. REALLY boring match.

Michaels v Hart at WM XII. Not a bad match, but I found it to be tedious as hell.

 

Hunter v Michaels at Bad Blood. 45 minutes of repetitive spots that we've seen a million times before, that never led to anything. The crowd might have cheered Michaels afterwards, but they were on their hands for almost all of that borefest.

I really can't remember any of the competetors in this match besides Dusty Rhodes.. but it was about a 20 minute long tag match, 15 of those minutes were taunting, including fat ass sitting on a chair in the middle of the ring, and there was no offense at all. It was on a Wednesday night TNA PPV... anyone know what match I'm talking about?

- Undertaker vs. Kane WM 20, awesome entrance but the match almost put me to sleep.

 

Michaels v Hart at WM XII. Not a bad match, but I found it to be tedious as hell.

 

yeah the first 30 minutes were pretty boring imo, but the last 25 more than made up for it IMO. Had it not been an Iron Man match i think it would be considered more of a classic now.

Just about every match on wwe raw and smackdown since the start of the year

especially the "raw is tag" era.

 

All of chris benoits matches from his comeback in spring 2002 till he joined raw after the royal rumble.

 

Every single basham brother match ever.

 

Most tag team matches for me i hate tag team wrestling if there was never a tag match ever again i would die a happy man.

- T & A Vs. Steve Blackman & Al Snow (WM 2000)

- Chris Jericho Vs. Shawn Michaels II (Jericho goes over, was on Raw with Y2J heel, Michaels face) Where Jericho locks "Walls of Jericho" on Michaels during match, and JR goes "Folks, we'll be right back after this commercial!

Undertaker/Shamrock from Backlash '99. I liked both guys at the time, and was pumped because I was there in person...but good God did that match suck the meat missle.

I actually really like this match...though the crowd was COMPLETELY dead for it, there's some cool stuff there if you go back and watch.

Steve Austin vs. Undertaker (WWF Backlash 2002)

Triple H vs. Undertaker (WWE King of the Ring 2002)

Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels (WWE Bad Blood 2004)

 

All far too long.

 

There is another one from the mid-90's (around '95 I think) that's on the tip of my tounge. If I remember I'll post it too.

Throw in Austin v UT from JD 2001 and you have them all. God, that tag team "All the Titles on the line" match was absolutely horrendously dull.

Jericho vs. Christian vs. RVD (Unforgiven '03)- Outside of two spots this was so dull. There was no reason for the match to even happen, the crowd were dead, JR and King didn't care (and to be fair were given no real reason to).

Aside from the crowd, Brock Lesnar versus Goldberg at Wrestlemania 20.

 

I was excited, I wanted to see what Lesnar could pull out of Goldberg, and then... that.

 

I also recall the match twiztedmind was speaking of, but I've blocked the specifics of that match out of my mind. It was that bad.

 

I'd also like to point out the incredibly underrated Benoit/Matt Hardy match from the opening round of the United States Title tournament I believe it was, as a great match Benoit had on SD, among many others.

First match that popped into my mind when I saw this thread.

 

I'll give Sid/Taker from WM13 a nod, since that match bored the shit out of my at a time when I could watch the bullshit matches on USWA and ICW shows and still be excited.

You can also add the Benoit/Angle/Mysterio 3-way from an October 2002 Smackdown.

 

Chalk up Brock/Angle Iron-Man as a boring match. The first 40 minutes was the cure for insomnia.

I'm pretty sure it was Dusty & ? vs Jarrett & ?

 

I remember Jarrett went to the announce table, grabbed his title, and put it back.. Dusty set up a chair and sat in the ring.. and this was all going on during the PEAK of the match.

 

It's bothering me that I can't remember the participants..

 

Someone please try to help me out!

yeah it was the SemiFinal of the US Title Tournament, awesome match.

Hardy was great when he broke his nose and went all crazy side-effecting the shit outta Benoit and then the V1 Headbutt. Then ending was great too with the mid-air counter of the Top Rope Side Effect. Good match

DDP vs. Curt Hennig - Starrcade 97

I just watched that show for the first time the other day and while that's not a good match, the Buff Bagwell vs. Lex Luger match is a MILLION times more boring. Just a HORRIBLE match that goes almost 17 minutes!

I guess El Gigante matches are too easy to select.

 

Hell, give me Morton v Gibson (Bash 91) for the most shockingly dull match ever.
