Kennel From Hell. The big blowoff to the Al Snow/Big Boss Man feud (which included such memorable moments as Boss Man killing Snow's dog and feeding it to him) was a Hell in the Cell match with DEADLY KILLER DOGS stalking the area outside the ring. Except the dogs weren't all that mean and just spent the whole match pissing and making GBS threads outside the ring. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4e7bp_al-snow-vs-big-boss-man-unforgiven_sport

It's worse than that, the dogs weren't fixed and they used males and females, and the dogs just start loving constantly and the handlers keep trying to break them up.

Once saw a battle royal at a drag strip where the ring was set up between the stands and the near lane, with actual drag cars running in the far lane during the match. The winner of the match was some guy from Axe Men and he  won $5,000 that he was going to use to get his sunken boat off the bottom of a river.

As far as dumb poo poo when it comes to writing/storylines, the one thing that sticks out to me is part of the seemingly never ending Sheamus and Alberto Del Rio feud. Sheamus starts winning TV matches with the cloverleaf submission, while also still using the brogue kick. Ricardo eats a brogue kick at one point, so they hire David Otunga to lobby Smackdown GM Booker T to ban the brogue kick. Booker agrees, and bans the brogue kick. Sheamus wins his next match with the cloverleaf, as he had been. Commentators still really play up "How will Sheamus defeat Alberto Del Rio if the brogue kick has been banned?!?" Video packages show Sheamus looking concerned about it being banned, meanwhile he's still winning every TV match with a cloverleaf. At the PPV, Booker T comes out before the match and unbans the brogue kick. Sheamus wins by brogue kick. It's literally the worst wrestling writing I've ever seen in my life. Truly insulting the intelligence of their audience.

WCW Champion David Arquette ruled and I can tell you why: Despite not seeing the clip once in like 16 years or whatever now since it first aired the sound and image of Arquette gleefully squealing "Shyaaaaaat aaaaaaaaaaaaap" at the crowd is still seared into my brain. Someone please find that clip

It's even better than that, I believe he donated his pay to the families of deceased wrestlers. I believe he gave a bunch of it to Pillman's family.

Ah yeah, that was it. I loving love the fact that the angle most associated with the worst of WCW benefited the families of three WWF wrestlers.

Dean Malenko and Kidman had a match where, for some reason, the first person to touch the floor lost. After about a minute, Dean rolls to the outside and the ref calls the match and Dean looks confused because I guess no one had actually told him the special rules of the match.

StarkRavingMad posted:I just remembered Beaver Cleavage, a short lived WWE gimmick in an obvious "Leave It To Beaver" style gag. The whole gimmick was built around the implication that he was having sex with his mother, who was also his manager. They had to kill it real quick since they were reportedly losing advertisers, because no one other than Vince thought a gimmick based totally on incest was cool. They killed it by doing a worked shoot where Beaver said "I can't do this anymore" and walked out in the middle of a promo. He then became Chaz and revealed that his "mother" was actually just his girlfriend. You forgot where that relationship went afterward, which was domestic abuse, with his fake mother girlfriend coming out to the ring with black eyes and such. Which later turned out to be her making the whole thing up and using makeup to look like her boyfriend was abusing her.

My least favorite spot of all time is the "Scott Hall has a guy in the abdominal stretch and grabs Kevin Nash's hand because he needs help standing up" spot I know that theoretically he's increasing the leverage on the hold, but it has never not looked like "Jeez chico I'm gonna need some help staying on my feet mang" Shout out to the "Nash then grabs the hand of a third guy just off the apron" version, which is even dumber

And like, hey, whatever, it was a different time. I can accept that. But then WWE chose to double-down on it with the DX episode of the Monday Night Wars, where they singled that moment out as being so drat funny and made sure to have Mark Henry talk about how hilarous it was in order to say, "No, it's totally cool! See?"

Personally I'm all about the time DX rode an armed jeep around Atlanta and farcically declared war on WCW, and every time this was ever mentioned since the story became "Triple H drove an armored fighting vehicle, a tank with a rotating turret, into Eric Bischoff's offices and was so sexy he won the Monday Night Wars then and there"
