Has anyone ever really seen anything that was supposed to be funny in wrestling and genuinely laughed? Only one i can think of is when Victoria came down to the ring in a fat suit and fell over. Jason Sensation's impersonation of Owen Hart? The skit that came from would never be allowed to go out today on the account of X-pac doing blackface.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted September 16, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 16, 2018 Roddy Piper fighting Earthquake, Luther Reigns and his real life bodyguard who happened to be wearing boxing gloves is the standard which may never be topped. An angle that bombed so poorly, it actually had people turning onto Nitro just to watch it. I think it was one of the highest rated segments they ever done on Nitro. It was like watching the news coverage of Raoul Moat. John Tenta was going to murder Arn Anderson the following week, when they dropped the angle, because he called Tenta an "amateur" during a promo. Stevie Ray said on his podcast, he was throwing chairs wanting to kill some fucker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely one of the worst wrestling moments ever. I didn't get that at all. Was it meant to be funny? Were they trying to break kayfabe? There was no purpose to it at all. It might be the most baffingly shit thing I've ever watched in wrestling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted September 16, 2018 Author Paid Members Share Posted September 16, 2018 Funny this has moved to some funny moments because that was going to be my next thread after watching the video of Rock running through everyone's catchphrase recently. Still adore that promo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members garynysmon Posted September 17, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 17, 2018 I suppose you could point to Wrestlecrap for many examples, but the Survivor Series 94 match involving the “four Doinks” was pretty awful even for this 10 year old kid at the time.

Do we mean Doink,Dink, Wink & Pink or the one where the Bushwackers & MOM dressed as Doinks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheffbag Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Thats the one, featuring Samu getting eliminated by slipping on the banana skin he threw himself as the other one was out of position. Vince fired the banana later that night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted September 17, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 17, 2018 The Bushwackers came out on scooters for that match if memory serves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted September 17, 2018 Author Paid Members Share Posted September 17, 2018 Remember someone emailed in SCG Radio on one of their pods who really loved that MOM/Bushwackers as Doinks match. Hope he's received all the support he needed. The one with the midgets is a guilty pleasure. That spot where Lawler makes the midget carry him on his shoulders is absolute gold.

Merzbow Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Speaking of Lawler and epic fails, one of the OSW lot went on a rant about how Jerry is shit and can't work in their last video. How could anyone actually think that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
