strummer 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2005 What are some of the most humiliating losses for big name wrestlers? Bret Hart jobbing to Yokozuna at WM. (terribly embarrassing loss for Bret IMO) HHH to Ultimate Warrior at WM 12 (in retrospect, was not suprising at the time) Arn Anderson to Renagade (speaks for itself) Ricky Steamboat losing the IC title to Honky Tonk Man (great worker who had just reached his peak in credibility in the WWF, jobbing his newly won title to a low card gimmick guy) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted February 8, 2005 I'm almost 100% sure Triple H actually jobbed to Reverend D'Von once on Smackdown. WCW 1999/2000 is a blurr, but I think Hogan jobbed to Billy Kidman. Can anyone confirm, since I'm really blanking on everything from then. Undertaker jobbing to Test in August 2002 on RAW... CLEAN. (Ok, as clean as UT can job). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bam Bam jobbing to fucking Lawrence Taylor DDP jobbing to Sarah Calloway And the worst one of all: Lance Storm jobbing to Molly Holly on Raw during the invasion angle.

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2005 Bret Hart jobbing to Yokozuna at WM. (terribly embarrassing loss for Bret IMO) At the time, with Hogan stealing his thunder, I would agree. But after Yoko killed Hogan, got booked as a monster for a year, and returned the job clean at Mania X, it didn't seem as bad. Arn Anderson jobbing the TV title to Renegade is EASILY the worst IMO.

Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted February 8, 2005 Arn Anderson even said him losing to the Renegade was the lowest point of his entire career. I can't agree more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest sek69 Report post Posted February 8, 2005 I always felt Yoko squashing Hogan was pretty humiliating. Not that Yoko was a jobber or anything, but to see a guy who carried the company for as long as Hogan did get punked out like that was pretty shocking at the time.

Epic Reine 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2005 Arn Anderson even said him losing to the Renegade was the lowest point of his entire career. I can't agree more.

Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted February 8, 2005 I wouldn't credit one persons opinion leading to someones suicide. He just went into a depression probably, was released by WCW, and couldn't find work in WWF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slickster 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2005 First off, I'm pretty sure Arn said it after Renegade shot himself in 1999. Second of all, I'm sure even Renegade would agree that his push was bound to fail (as a UW ripoff with minimal training/in-ring experience). He was a victim of circumstance and I'm not so sure Arn meant that he disliked the man behind the terrible gimmick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jingus 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2005 The Renegade's story is indeed a sad one, showing how a big corporation can unthinkingly murder somebody. You take some muscled-up young jock right out of school who doesn't know anything about wrestling, you make him watch every Ultimate Warrior match, you make him train for a couple weeks in the Powerplant, you give him the Renegade gimmick, you give him a big-ass push, you let him "beat" everyone who steps in the ring with him, you give him the TV Title, all in a transparently avaricious attempt to capitalize on the Ultimate Warrior's success. And for about 15 seconds, it works, and the kid basks in the warmth that only thousands cheering fans can provide. Well, guess what? He doesn't get over. The gimmick sucks and so does his wrestling. "You're fired, kid. Hit the road." And so a young man has several of his prime years stolen out from under him. The employees and fans of the only career he's ever known all despise him, for things which weren't his fault. He can't get a job wrestling, he has no other job skills, and hey, are those wrinkles on my face?! No wonder the poor schmuck killed himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
