Osw had a great quote about taking sabu out of this match "wwe thought all he could do is weapon gimmick matches....so they take him out of the weapons gimmick match"
I respect their decision on not putting Sting vs Jeff Hardy. It's something I wanted to see when it started but overtime, I even watched it myself and it was uncomfortable to watch. So, I respect their decision. Next week is Fiend vs Randy Orton? Oh boy... This is gonna be another one of those matches that I never went back to watch it.
It’s not even a match. It’s just Eric Bischoff desperately trying to stall on the mic while he figures out what to do, then Sting forcing an inebriated Jeff Hardy into a pin so they can get out without something even worse happening.
I agree. The best part of this show is sharing a laugh about how just bad it is. The Sting v. Jeff Hardy situation wasn't even remotely funny, it was sad and heartbreaking.
It is the worst match in TNA history considering its the main event of an already meh at best PPV but because of what happened to Jeff, I'm glad they aren't doing it either.
I will always remember the interview Paul Heyman gave about this Match where he literally said that Vince Screamed to him 'they will push Bobby Lashley, not CM Punk!' - and that he did not give a single f about what the Fans think or what he thinks. Only to prove them all right in the end and STILL(!) being so oblivious to why this booking failed so hard that he fired Paul E as if it was all his Fault. No Vince, you SURELY did nothing wrong here.
I've always wondered if Punk had won this like Heyman wanted, would it be looked at more favorably. The upside to this match to me is that WWE felt so bad about it that they added MNM and Hardys to the ladder match at Armageddon a few weeks later and I was 2nd row for that match (RIP Mercury's Nose)
Vince McMahon is like Jerry Jones: he would rather fail and still be in charge having 100% control, than succeed, make lots of money but have it be credit to someone else.
The match was bad punk Winning would of at least helped make a new star. But as the lads pointed out this wasn’t about helping punk or ecw it was about proving Vince right in his own mind
Loved the analysis on how it's bad and what they would do differently to not make it infamous. Really hope the Doomsday Cage Match from WCW Uncensored 1996 is a choice.
This .mght be the best episode on this channel. From Luke's saltiness toward the comments to getting me to sing "it's like raaain on your wedding day." Chef's kiss
I wish you guys would've watched Heyman's promo before this match, mainly to listen to the fans heckle Heyman. There's an infamous moment in the promo where Heyman talks about Big Show and a fan says loud enough for the mics to pick up "WHO'S GONNA RETIRE NEXT YEAR!"
So amazing thing about this PPV, my brother owns it on DVD. I assume he just bought whatever DVDs were available when he first into wrestling (its a nearly random selection of 2005 and 2006 WWE DVDs), and this was definitely one of them.
@@retrokoh I watched it a few hours ago and watching that match completely fall apart was funny but i felt so bad for everyone involved. Daniel Bryan was sitting at ringside and witnessed that debacle
To answer Luke’s question about why people are nostalgic for this era, it’s when I started watching wrestling. I was 7 when this match happened so my frame of reference for ECW at that point was whatever WWE told me it was, my frame of reference for DX was the 06-07 version (which I still genuinely enjoy), and it’s the theme, look, and roster I most associate with Raw and SmackDown to this day. I also think it’s a roster that was full of potential in the company that just never went anywhere. Shelton Benjamin should have been a mega star but never was, Carlito could have been a star but wasn’t, Mr Kennedy should have been a mega star but wasn’t. But it’s also the era of John Cena, Batista, Randy Orton, and Edge as big players that informs all of the careers they have now.
Shelton was never going to be a mega star because he lacked character and promo so much so Dave Meltzer pointed this,he went to ROH and NJPW and WWC in Puerto Rico and nobody really talks about it like Drew Galloway or Cody.
Just want to preface that I love Luke with all my heart and I respect him a lot. Sadly he has the "old man syndrome" when everything new is bad and he cant phatom how anyone could have nostalgia for it. He has the same issue with Star Wars, he cant understand how people like the prequels, but its precisely for what you pointed out, because there was a whole generation who grew with them.
Oh boy, looking forward to this one! Never seen it, but certainly heard lots about it. To correct my comment on the last episode, RVD/Mr Anderson was at Victory Road 2011, not Turning Point. Hogan/Micheals from SummerSlam 2005 might also be a shout depending on how you view the bumping lol
They suffered through nearly 30 minutes of the worst Chamber match in history, and still nothing made those boys look nearly as miserable as they do just hearing the words "Randy Orton vs The Fiend"...
Some suggestions: Jerry Lawler vs Michael Cole Diesel vs Mabel Any Punjabi Prison Match The Hard Times 3 Triple Threat Roman Reigns vs Triple H Undertaker vs Undertaker Great Khali vs Triple H Kennel From Hell Match 2015 Intercontinental Chamber Sycho Sid vs Undertaker DX vs Brothers of Destruction
Some suggestions for worst match Goldust vs. Ultimate Warrior at In Your House 1996 The Kennel from Hell match Unforgiven 1999 Eric Bischoff vs. Teddy Long Survivor Series 05
My opinion on this one is possibly a controversial hot take: The actual wrestling in this match? Is fine. It's not 5 star classic or anything, but when you get right down to it: there's some good spots, blood and hardcore stuff, good sequences like that CM Punk/RVD chair exchange, and though we have Bob Holly Bob Hollying there are no scary drop-on-head botches in the match like Goldberg v Taker. I think someone without knowledge of the backstage antics or any ECW nostalgia? Could enjoy this match. The reason this is considered one of the worst matches ever? Is purely down to the booking. As the guys (and many others) have rightly pointed out; the eliminations were booked completely back to front: the 2 fan favourites are out pretty much back to back, one face eliminating the other, and the winner being basically telegraphed in flashing neon lights by the time we got to the depressing 'final 3'. Had they gone with Tempest's simple suggestion of Test and RVD switching places, have Big Show eliminate RVD then Bobby comes in as the avenging babyface to win? I honestly think this episode would not have happened; the chamber match would have never entered contention for worst match ever. A bad wrestling match can be redeemed or at least forgiven if it's part of a good story. A good wrestling match can never save a bad story.
Total agreement with not putting in Hardy Vs Sting. Kinda soured the taste for me when it came to TNA. However, I do have a Worst Match of the Year award winner for a potential watch. I give you, the first ever Reverse Battle Royal as part of the Fight for the Right tournament 🤣🤣 And yet, there are some big names in there.
RVD/Mr Anderson would be a suitable replacement for Sting/Hardy seeing as it’s bad and from the same ppv imo, was reminded of it recently and boy does it stink
On the subject of The Fiend appearing next episode, I cannot wait for THAT Hell in a Cell match to be on here. That match is so painful, and IMO, worse than the zombies match.
Not sure what new gen stuff you have in the box but there's some proper stinkers in there (and I'm absolutely a freak who loves me some newgen). Top of my head, I'd suggest; Rowdy Roddy Piper vs Jerry Lawler (King of the Ring 1994) Undertaker vs Underfaker (Summerslam 1994) Royal Family vs Clowns Are Us (Survivor Series 1994) [this one I kinda expect to be in the BrewDogBox already tbh] Bertha Faye vs Alundra Blayze (Summerslam 1995) King Mabel vs Diesel (Summerslam 1995)
Technically speaking, it's not a bad match. It's really well paced, and if it wasn't for the horrible booking decisions, it might have actually been quite good. It was death by a thousands cuts in some ways. The rest of the card already had people with a bad taste in their mouth. Then they took out Sabu, in the lamest way possible. Then they added Hardcore Holly despite people wanting New Stars and old ECW guys in the new ECW. Nobody wanted Big Show as Champion, and nobody wanted Bobby at this stage either. This was the real start of Vince's jamming his own ideas down the audiences throat, people didn't want Lashley as ECW champ. Then eliminating the clear fan favourite first was just lunacy. Punk should have won, or at very least made it to the end.
I suggest WWE: Cole vs. lawler Wrestlemania 27 TNA: Christy hemme vs. big fat oily guy Against All Odds 2007 WCW: Hogan vs. Warrior Halloween Havoc 1998
Matches like Jeff Hardy vs Sting, Yasukawa vs Yoshiko ('that' Stardom match), Jarrett vs Steiner vs Sid (the one where Sid suffers his career ending injury and spends the entire match screaming in pain), any of the New Jack incidents... are some of the 'worst matches ever', but not the fun kind of worst match ever, but ones where you can do nothing but look on in horror. I don't blame you for not covering any of those one's
I absolutely understand what you’re looking for guys, and I am here for all of it! Keep it coming, I’m so glad you got season three of the GM manager. Love to every single one of you!
@@michaelrivera8360 yeah. I just remember a very Canadian Edge mocking the "aboot" thing which I think is a South Park joke because this was 2001, a couple years after South Park hit big.
The Test quote to Stacy Keiber is from Survivor Series 2001, when Test was IC champ and he faced US champ Edge in a Title Unification Match. HE lost, and then won the Immunity battle Royale. I have a soft spot for that PPV, and remember it well lol
"Test isn't gonna be hitting anyone with his 'big boot' hes gonna be on the ground thinking "what the hell is that all aboot?" Edges greatest quote ever.
And as far as Sting v Jeff Hardy (1. I agree completely. 2. I hope this isn't a poor oversimplification.), Worst Match Ever is meant to be like watching a demolition derby. That match is just a highway pileup. Yes, it happened, but we don't need to revisit it and watch a serious low point in a man's life/career. Especially after another incident recently, I just wish the best for Jeff Hardy and truly hope he gets the help he needs, not just for himself, but for his friends, family, and even his fans.
Paul Heyman told Vince exactly how stupid this booking was. And Vince was too arrogant and stubborn to listen. And surprise surprise it got crapped on. So of course Vince blamed Paul for it in the end.
I love these videos so much. I WISH I had more knowledge to suggest a bad match but I see you guys have plenty of them already planned. Thanks guys for introducing me to some bad wrestling.
If Fiend/Orton from WM37 is in the box, Bray vs Randy from Mania 33 had BETTER be in there too.... Cause my. GAWD.... That match is like all time bad....
Well, that was... a match. It's bad, but it's not spectaculary bad like The Zombie Match or hilarious like the women's match you guys watched a few weeks ago. What makes this match and the whole PPV so infamous is the whole stuff surrounding Vince running ECW into the ground. PS: In the next match there isn't a big box. It's a box like structure!
This ws my forvorite of the worst matches they've watched so far, not becuase of the match itselft, but because of the legnth of the video. And I also really enjoyed there commentary for this one
Man, this is really giving me RiffTrax vibes in the best way, except with RiffTrax being scripted, I don't think it would work without watching the main feature, which this does. Though I do wonder if doing a RiffTrax like video on just storylines, no matches unless specific spots are needed, could work.
I’m surprised that the match between Booker T and Buff Bagwell that was shown on Raw hasn’t been shown on this show yet. The whole match itself was an attempt to relaunch WCW as its own separate brand, essentially replacing RAW with Nitro. It’s actually referred to by wrestling journalists at the time as The Worst Wrestling Match ever.
I never considered this match to be in the worst ever catagory, it's so very very very dull but the match itself isn't a walking disaster. What was disastrous was the booking of and behind the match with one of Vince's most Vince plays to tank his own promotion just to say he was right. There's so many TNA things that need to be in here, the blindfold match between Storm and Harris or the electrified cage (from the same damn show) with the cartoon electrified noises played over the sound system. Or the casket match (or whatever TNA called it) between Abyss and Sting which the crowd just chanted "fire Russo" all through. I assume most if not all of those are already in the box.
Honestly the best story WWECW ever did was the Tommy Dreamer chasing after the championship. I had a few dumb moments but it had a great payoff. You can't ask for more than that sometimes :)
Given the roster (that I remember), if I were booking it, I would've had CM Punk, Big Show, RVD, Sabu, Hardcore Holly, and probably either Mike Knox or Stevie Richards. Everyone likes to crap on Holly in ECW, but, he definitely had a reinvention during this time. Go back and watch his match against RVD where he split his back open. That dude had authenticity in ECW.
A few suggestions: HHH (c) vs. Reigns- WM 32 Miz (c) vs. Cena- WM 27 Bushwhackers vs. Sheik & Volkoff- Heroes of Wrestling (it's on RUclips) Hogan (c) vs. Sting- Starrcade '97 Rumbles 2015 & 2022 Show (c) vs. Batista- ECW (it's on RUclips)
Some suggestions: Undertaker vs Big Show Punjabi Prison match - Great American Bash 2006 Al Snow vs Big Boss Man Kennel from Hell match - Unforgiven 99 Al Snow and Head vs Too Much - King of the Ring 98 Fake Donald Trump vs Fake Rosie O’Donnel - Raw 2007
I think you answered my question, with the Jeff hardy/ Sting statement, but are you going to watch act yasukawa vs yoshiko, or Jake Robert's at heroes of wrestling. Considering your statement In the video I'm guessing the answer is no and rightfully so, I'm just looking for clarification.
Other suggestions: Fiend v Orton - Inferno match Reigns v undertaker - wm33 Any of the Punjabi prison matches Ms wrestlemania battle royal-wm25 Big show v Akebono - Wm21
15:55 to be fair, Tommy Dreamer not winning at an ECW event is the most ECW thing this PPV did
Osw had a great quote about taking sabu out of this match
"wwe thought all he could do is weapon gimmick matches....so they take him out of the weapons gimmick match"
Only a decade and a half later, one mma career, and more time spent in another promotion than in WWE; this show created a new star Bobby Lashley 😂
I respect their decision on not putting Sting vs Jeff Hardy. It's something I wanted to see when it started but overtime, I even watched it myself and it was uncomfortable to watch. So, I respect their decision. Next week is Fiend vs Randy Orton? Oh boy... This is gonna be another one of those matches that I never went back to watch it.

What are you talking about Vince cares about the fans...sarcasm*
I think they didn’t do this event at Hammerstein because the chamber wouldn’t have been able to be hung from ceiling. It’s a pretty small place.
A near 50 min worst match ever, well certainly going to be fun
Test does a great elbow drop...and that's it
@@Drakorre and that big boot spot with Hardcore Holly😂😂
There isn't a box in the Fiend/Orton match. It was a box-like structure 😂
BEWARE THE BOX-LIKE STRUCTURE
"I have not read it" made my choke on my OJ! 😂😂😂
I've always wondered if Punk had won this like Heyman wanted, would it be looked at more favorably. The upside to this match to me is that WWE felt so bad about it that they added MNM and Hardys to the ladder match at Armageddon a few weeks later and I was 2nd row for that match (RIP Mercury's Nose)
I think it wouldn't be great but it had the right result kinda like if the Fiend would have won at Hell in a cell 2019
Vince McMahon is like Jerry Jones: he would rather fail and still be in charge having 100% control, than succeed, make lots of money but have it be credit to someone else.

At some point I would love to see yall do this format again with the Worst Promos in wrestling history.
The 1st half of the match was a solid enough but the last half has collapsed faster than Toronto maple leafs in the playoffs.

Both 2015 chamber matches could make this list, but the IC match was indeed far worse.
@@retrokoh I watched it a few hours ago and watching that match completely fall apart was funny but i felt so bad for everyone involved. Daniel Bryan was sitting at ringside and witnessed that debacle

Okay, but if Fiend vs Orton is next, you have no excuse to _not_ have the House of Horrors match in the box.
They suffered through nearly 30 minutes of the worst Chamber match in history, and still nothing made those boys look nearly as miserable as they do just hearing the words "Randy Orton vs The Fiend"...
I started watching with Heyman's promo a few minutes before the match. Recommend it as well.

WCW: Hogan vs. Warrior Halloween Havoc 1998
24:09 waiting like 20 minutes for everyone to get in the match, it's like Searching for Bobbly Lashley
Matches like Jeff Hardy vs Sting, Yasukawa vs Yoshiko ('that' Stardom match), Jarrett vs Steiner vs Sid (the one where Sid suffers his career ending injury and spends the entire match screaming in pain), any of the New Jack incidents... are some of the 'worst matches ever', but not the fun kind of worst match ever, but ones where you can do nothing but look on in horror.
I don't blame you for not covering any of those one's
I am personally waiting for them to get to a heroes of wrestling match, particularly shiek and volkoff vs bushwackers.
Hilarious they didn't even use the table. It was just to get Bobby out of the pod. Which was the most ridiculous way to get out. 😂
Test almost broke his leg on the way down

That Test thing was either Summerslam or Survivor Series 2001 when he was taking on Edge cause Edge took the piss out of Test and his Canadian accent.

Still suggesting Halloween Havoc 1991.
The Chamber of Horrors match!
Yes to this
Especially with a second season happening
Not the worst wrestled match ever but maybe the most depressingly booked.
The telling thing is even Paul heyman in his into before the match looks like his heart isn’t in it
I haven't read his book, but I always got the impression that Bob Holly was a way bigger star in his head than he ever actually was.
Okay so this is going to be out of nowhere, but I'd like to put Chris Champion vs Don Valentine as a contender for worst match.
Dude the content PFN and WT is putting out is just S+ tier
It's probably in the box, but the Fiend vs Seth Rollins, Hell in a Cell.
This is my new favorite series from you guys!!
“Why didn’t you just tape it in the Hammerstein Ballroom? It would have felt like ECW.” That’s exactly why they didn’t do it.
If Fiend/Orton from WM37 is in the box, Bray vs Randy from Mania 33 had BETTER be in there too.... Cause my. GAWD.... That match is like all time bad....
Well, that was... a match. It's bad, but it's not spectaculary bad like The Zombie Match or hilarious like the women's match you guys watched a few weeks ago. What makes this match and the whole PPV so infamous is the whole stuff surrounding Vince running ECW into the ground.

I was half expecting luke to break down in tears halfway through this and idk why
I love Tempest with a beanie.
Pete has influenced the masked man
Can't even watch along to half of these matches but I'm binging through this series. It's so much fun watching everyone's reactions 😅
Fiend vs Strowman, the swamp match from extreme rules 2020 as my suggestion
Not this match in particular, but I honestly think that Bob Holly was hugely underrated for ECW
I love watching matches I never watched with you guys absolutely great series ❤
Pspsps: I get your entire idea of the board I’m sorry that people don’t.
I would suggest the 2015 chamber with the whole script breaking down.
Man, this is really giving me RiffTrax vibes in the best way, except with RiffTrax being scripted, I don't think it would work without watching the main feature, which this does. Though I do wonder if doing a RiffTrax like video on just storylines, no matches unless specific spots are needed, could work.

Can't believe you guys got me to watch this god-awful match again.
if they do a season 2 or more episodes of this, i suggest the chamber match for the IC belt won by ryback
I never considered this match to be in the worst ever catagory, it's so very very very dull but the match itself isn't a walking disaster. What was disastrous was the booking of and behind the match with one of Vince's most Vince plays to tank his own promotion just to say he was right.
There's so many TNA things that need to be in here, the blindfold match between Storm and Harris or the electrified cage (from the same damn show) with the cartoon electrified noises played over the sound system. Or the casket match (or whatever TNA called it) between Abyss and Sting which the crowd just chanted "fire Russo" all through. I assume most if not all of those are already in the box.
Honestly the best story WWECW ever did was the Tommy Dreamer chasing after the championship. I had a few dumb moments but it had a great payoff. You can't ask for more than that sometimes :)
Given the roster (that I remember), if I were booking it, I would've had CM Punk, Big Show, RVD, Sabu, Hardcore Holly, and probably either Mike Knox or Stevie Richards. Everyone likes to crap on Holly in ECW, but, he definitely had a reinvention during this time. Go back and watch his match against RVD where he split his back open. That dude had authenticity in ECW.
This was glorious! I can’t wait for next week!!
A possible match for you guys could be Mr. T vs Kevin Sullivan at Starrcade 1994.
I can't wait for the inevitable Scott Steiner vs Triple H at Rumble 2003
A few suggestions:
HHH (c) vs. Reigns- WM 32
Miz (c) vs. Cena- WM 27
Bushwhackers vs. Sheik & Volkoff- Heroes of Wrestling (it's on RUclips)
Hogan (c) vs. Sting- Starrcade '97
Rumbles 2015 & 2022
Show (c) vs. Batista- ECW (it's on RUclips)
The ECW is August 1st 2006
Anyone losing sleep over what Pete was gonna do in the intro? 😭
I am very happy after this I can directly go to MyGM Monday Night Wars. Please let me forget this match!
Once again I will suggest Shelly Martinez v Rebel from TNA Knockouts Knockdown
Not gonna lie I was a Test mark for a while when I was younger lmao.
R.I.P Test man 🥲
You guys should do John Cena vs Johnny Ace from Over the Limit 2012
Next week has to be a double-feature. You have to do WM37 and WM 33 together lol.
They are doing matches... Not wholesale events. Plus, even if they were, these Mania cards don't even rank as the worst Manias ever.
@@retrokoh he means the Bray vs Orton matches at each of those events
@@Isaygoodday5 no he meant the PPV I think
@@Isaygoodday5 ah you are right... I just got to the end and they announced it.
@Dexx Baker disregard my last comment. And I agree. Both were so bad.
Ok Bob, get out 😂
Some suggestions:
Undertaker vs Big Show Punjabi Prison match - Great American Bash 2006
Al Snow vs Big Boss Man Kennel from Hell match - Unforgiven 99
Al Snow and Head vs Too Much - King of the Ring 98
Fake Donald Trump vs Fake Rosie O’Donnel - Raw 2007
Wow! I think I might try and get your live reactions pulled up as well for next week.
if its not been suggested yet easily the best match to go on here is braun vs bray in the swamp match
6:31 wait wait Luke your forgetting. During the Invasion Paul Heyman had the baseball cap on.
LUKE: Take it with Heyman! It's his rule!
@@WrestleTalkPod He was a heel during that run. The numbers dont lie.
@@GrtSage but heels DO lie. There is his out.
@@retrokoh “this invasion just got taken to the extreme” -🧢
@@GrtSage oh how exciting that was... As a young fan.
Then Steph got shoehorned in... And even 12 year old me knew how shitty that was
New Wrestle League Punishment: Watch the current Worst match ever list best to worst order by themself.
To say that the big show was an undercard hard-core wrestler from 1999 until 2006 is a drastic lie
I think you answered my question, with the Jeff hardy/ Sting statement, but are you going to watch act yasukawa vs yoshiko, or Jake Robert's at heroes of wrestling. Considering your statement In the video I'm guessing the answer is no and rightfully so, I'm just looking for clarification.
LUKE: Yeah I wouldn't want to do that either.
@@WrestleTalkPod OK thank you for the clarification I just wanted to be sure.
Other suggestions:
Fiend v Orton - Inferno match
Reigns v undertaker - wm33
Any of the Punjabi prison matches
Ms wrestlemania battle royal-wm25
Big show v Akebono - Wm21
