    Reach for the (Minus) Stars: Sky's Collection of Bad Matches

    Entry #315 Yokozuna vs. "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan WWF Rampage Bercy - April 8, 1993 As it turns out, there's another bad match from France that got filmed... and made it on to a relatively easily-accessible classic home video release! This was from the same tour as the WWF UK Rampage show (which, as...

    Entry #314 Andre the Giant vs. Junkyard Dog WWF from Paris, France - October 7, 1988 So, how about that Backlash show from France? Hell of an atmosphere. I will be forever disappointed when I don't hear "simplement deux" after every two-count from now on. I checked, and it's the first WWE show...

    Entry #313 Scott Hall vs. Larry Zbyszko WCW Souled Out - January 24, 1998 The other name I heard was Scott Hall, or rather Razor Ramon, so here's a bad Scott Hall match. It's with Larry Z in 1998. A guy who was supposedly being set up for a World Title shot feuding with a commentator who talked...

    Entry #312 Crash Holly (c) vs. The British Bulldog Hardcore Match for the WWF Hardcore Championship WWF Insurrextion - May 6, 2000 In the chatbox I asked people to name wrestlers who'd worked for WWE. One of the answers I got was Max Moon, but there are as far as I can tell no bad Paul Diamond...

    Entry #311 Masahiro Chono (c) vs. Rick Rude for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship WCW Halloween Havoc - October 25, 1992 After FAR too long away, we march on forward! And we come upon our first WON Worst Match in a while! Surprisingly, the match from Halloween Havoc '92 that earned the...

    Entry #310 Jim Duggan vs. Meng WCW Monday Nitro - April 22, 1996 Just as April 22 isn't exactly a red-letter time for Wrestlers Who Aren't Exactly Good, it's not particularly full of Shows With Matches That Aren't Exactly Good either. Going by airdates, that is. The most I can find is this...

    Entry #309 The Gunn Club vs. The Factory AEW Dynamite - August 25, 2021 On this very special day, I decided I'd watch a bad match from one of my Birthday Twins... and you'd be surprised at how hard that one is. Chuck Taylor and Kyoko Inoue are the main ones, and neither has wrestled a "bad"...

    Entry #308 Jinder Mahal (c) vs. Randy Orton Punjabi Prison Match for the WWE Championship WWE Battleground - July 23, 2017 Of course, the final release this go around was Jinder Mahal, who's got a much bigger repertoire of bad matches behind him. So I was left with a lot more choice, and a much...

    Entry #307 Sanga vs. Xyon Quinn WWE NXT 2.0 - June 28, 2022 Up next, a two-for-one deal! Amazingly, Sanga's most-derided match (that I could find) also features Xyon Quinn! Even more amazingly, this happened on the same night as the much-trashed Mandy Rose vs. Nikkita Lyons encounter. Let's see...

    Entry #306 Veer vs. Jaxson Ryker WWE Main Event - October 28, 2021 Now that that's done with, I can look at the other four wrestlers who were released last night. And next up is Veer! This Main Event match happened while he was announced as coming to RAW. In fact, it aired just days after the...

    Entry #305 Xia Li/Boa vs. Mercedes Martinez/Jake Atlas WWE NXT - June 29, 2021 That's where I'd leave it with Xia Li, except @Y2Jayne informed me that, apparently, the match where Xia legit knocked out Mercedes Martinez was pretty bad. It's sitting on a 4.43 on Cagematch, so will absolutely be...

    Entry #304 Chelsea Green vs. Xia Li WWE NXT - May 6, 2020 Did you hear? WWE released a few people! Admittedly people who weren't being used, but it's sad to see people lose their jobs. It does give me material for this thread, though. Except for Xia Li. It seems that Xia Li hasn't had any...

    Entry #303 David Arquette (c) vs. Diamond Dallas Page vs. Jeff Jarrett Ready to Rumble Triple Cage Match for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship WCW Slamboree - May 7, 2000 And we complete (mostly) the sad, strange little run of David Arquette with this, the big payoff to his having won the...

    Entry #302 David Arquette (c) vs. Tank Abbott for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship WCW Monday Nitro - May 1, 2000 But David Arquette did indeed win the World Title. Not only did he win the World Title, he made a TELEVISED DEFENCE. This was it. Against Tank Abbott, a man who'd faced...

    Entry #301 David Arquette vs. Eric Bischoff WCW Monday Nitro - April 24, 2000 David Arquette wrestled 4 matches in WCW. And maybe Chris's right. Maybe the match's stupidity is exemplified by looking at its wider context. So, I'm going to look at the rest of David Arquette's matches in WCW! And...

    Entry #300 Diamond Dallas Page (c)/David Arquette vs. Jeff Jarrett/Eric Bischoff for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship WCW Thunder - April 26, 2000 I wondered what could possibly be worthy of entry number 300 in this thread. My 100th entry celebration saw me watch through Heroes of...

    Entry #299 Big Show vs. Akebono Sumo Match WWE WrestleMania 21 - April 3, 2005 RIP Akebono Taro - first ever foreign-born yokozuna in sumo, and professional wrestler. Sumo and professional wrestling have an interesting history together. There have been quite a few sumo wrestlers who went on to...

    Entry #298 The Second Reverse Battle Royal Fight for the Right Tournament Preliminary Round TNA Bound for Glory - October 14, 2007 Yeah, they did it again. On Pay-Per-Fucking-View. This took most of the air out of the match by ensuring that the guys that the fans wanted to see would be safely...

    Entry #297 The First Reverse Battle Royal Fight for the Right Tournament Preliminary Round TNA Impact - October 26, 2006 This, in 2006, was Worst Match of the Year, marking the first of five times a TNA match was voted the worst by Observer readers. The other four (the Blindfold Cage match...

    Entry #296 Vickie Guerrero/Chavo Guerrero vs. Santina Marella Handicap Hog Pen Match WWE Extreme Rules - June 7, 2009 And now, because I feel dirty putting something like Hogan/Andre below a Hog Pen match, here's a Hog Pen match for Hogan/Andre to be above! And it's the second appearance in...
