Sometimes in pro-wrestling the wrong guy wins a match and it has some detrimental effects to everyone involved. This includes the winner, the loser, the company itself and the fans who watch every week. For example, when Triple H beat Booker T at WrestleMania XIX, both Hunter and the company where shown in a bad light due to the storyline leading up to the match and the fact that Booker T, the fan favourite and underdog, didn't get his moment at the biggest show of the year. Other examples include John Cena defeating Team Nexus, Charlotte ending Asuka's undefeated streak at WrestleMania 34, and Randy Orton failing to beat Hulk Hogan to become the ultimate Legend Killer of the WWE.
This video looks at numerous matches where the wrong person "went over". - Sport
Shout out to Randy Orton for putting over a youngster like Hulk Hogan 😊😊😊
Orton always doing what’s best for business putting over the young guys 😂
Clearly "that didn't work for him, brother" 😂
😂😂
That worked 4 him brother
😂😂 for real, what a great Guy!
Sting vs. HHH is the number one example of this
That one will forever irritate me. Sting is one of my all-time favorite wrestlers and I will always hate WWE most specifically Vince McMahon for making him look like a complete fool. It’s very clear that Vince just brought him just so he can stick it to WCW one last time because he couldn’t learn how to put his pettiness aside. I feel like it’s best if Sting never joined WWE in the first place because nothing really good came out of it besides being inducted into the HOF.
hhh vs austin at no way out 2001
hhh vs booker t at wm 19
hhh vs cm punk at night of champions
Hhh summerslam 2003
@@extremeking425 I'm sensing a theme
Wouldn’t have made a difference in the long run
The fact that Billy Kidman didn’t win the Viagra on a Pole Match still keeps me awake at night to this day. What were they thinking?!
😅😅😅
Well, in the fake world, he went to the hotel with 3 Nitro Girls.
Dude, what? 🤣🤣🤣 Go ask Vince Russo
please reword the comment to say "keeps me up all night to this day"
For Charlotte, I think that it was about giving her certain accolades so that they could always reflect on them when describing her as the best women's wrestler. I don't think she's the best, but the WWE wanted me to think that. Count the accolades of that win. Retaining a world championship at WrestleMania is something that VERY few wrestlers are allowed to do. Charlotte was able to retain in spite of Asuka's seemingly unstoppable momentum.
This whole video could've been filled with Hogan and HHH matches both of them won at the worse time
Facts!
I got like 5 of each off the top of my head😂
This 💯
A few JJ matches from early TNA too.
@@Thor-OrionFor real. Monty Brown comes to mind especially. JJ going over killed his main event run.
I dunno, DDP winning clean against Goldberg off of a shock diamond cutter probably wouldve been more well recieved than a stun gun and a world title reign for Nash that didnt even matter in the end.
"I would have never had Goldberg lose his streak"
- Bobby Heenan 🧠
they should have went with page and then did the rematch at starcade
Could you imagine the outcry if the PPV feed was still cut?
@S.Dot87 having Goldberg win at Halloween Havoc and then lose to Page in a rematch at Starrcade also could've worked. 2 months to build DDP back up and tell a redemption story.
For me, DDP losing the title to Nash the next year was a bigger mistake. We’ve all watched him and a very limited Savage stink up the main event for the last few months and now that Macho has the belt you can literally see a counter counting down until Hogan pins him for it. It would have made far more sense for DDP to keep the title, forming the jersey triad to help keep his belt until a baby face Hogan, returned from the injury Dallas did to him, reclaimed the title in some sort of redemption ark. The company needed to turn a new page, so to speck, and people wanted to cheer Hogan and we will get some of that, before the dark times, before the Russo.
I will always find it funny that Goldberg beat The Fiend with a botched jackhammer when The Fiend kicked out 1,000s of Curb Stomps 😂😂😂😂😂
That's OK because Jericho was able to defeat Greenberg 4 times. Jericho is the man of 1,004 holds (including the devastating chinlock)
Armbar!
The writing of the HIAC was totally foolish, even before the no contest
I stopped watching after that match The fiend could of been a great character but they destroyed it for some reason.
Vince wanted ALL the WCW guys buried.
Steiner, Booker, Nash, Goldberg in that order.
And sting
You mean DDP, Kanyon, Booker T, then the others.
If we are making a Vince burying WCW guys tier list it starts with Buff and Saturn
Used Triple H to bury all of them 💀
Except both booker and Goldberg became world champions.
I think we all saw the thumbnail and thought “Booker T at WM19”
Seconded.
Booker T was mid.
Damn right. First thing that came to mind.
Yep.
Literal 1st thing that came to mind
HHH vs Sting should've never happened. Nobody that watched wrestling during the WWF vs WCW wars expected Sting to win against a WWF/E legend so it should've been Sting vs Undertaker and give so many people their dream match.
From what I heard Taker didn't want to do the match since they were both pretty old/kinda out of shape guys, so it would've been a stinker in his mind. Triple H was still in shape at the time, so he could carry one of the older folk through a match
Finally, someone is making some sense. You're correct. Sting vs Hunter never should have happened. They should have fed Sting a bunch of midcarders, then worked up to a match with Taker.
The fact that triple h pedigreed booker then took a ridiculous amount of time to get the pin didn't help that 1
Everybody knew Booker T had no chance
What makes that finish stand out even more is at that mania:
3 rock bottoms to beat Austin
3 leg drops to beat Vince
3 F5s to beat angle
It took only one pedigree to put booker away.
@@stingrey1571 no what makes that finish stand out is that it made booker look weak
@pleaseshutup7053 yea, that was exactly their point though. Those facts in mind made booker look even weaker
@@mizer9510 Booker T was up against a machine too strong...
Sting should never have lost to Triple H at WM 31. Such a waste of a true legendary wrestler.
You gotta look at it from a company point of view! Wcw could not beat wwf!
the story was about Sting taking down the tyranny HHH. they changed it to the Monday Night Wars story during the match@@thomassalas5191
roman should never win
@@thomassalas5191But that’s just being petty. They already won the war and own the company. Having Sting win was not going to hurt anybody. If they wanted him to lose, then he should have just wrestled Taker then. At least that would have been an understandable loss.
This should have been #1 on the list
Booker: I'm going over
HHH: That doesn't work for me brother
😂
Owen losing to triple h in every single european title match (notwithstanding the fact Owen should have been challenging Shawn at the rumble in 98)
Aj Styles in his prime losing to RVD who'd only been around a couple of months in TNA.
Could talk about triple h ones for hours 😂 but these are the main two that stand out for me.
On the same note as AJ losing to RVD, Pope losing to AJ just days before that at Lockdown is one of TNA's biggest bag fumbles. 2010 TNA was so incredibly frustrating.
First person I thought of was Owen. 👌
Owen was unfairly awarded the European title in February 98. So HHH deserved to beat him to get it back.
@Speedyreedy1218 yeah I get that I mean in some bigger fights when they should have gave him the push
@@thomasarsenal5465 Which ones?
Whatever I think of him these days: Jericho not winning the rumble in 2012 was baffling to me
Or winning at 28. He should've beat Punk.
My two biggest disappointments that always seem to stick out for me,
Undertaker losing to Brock at WM
&
Sting losing to Triple H at WM
Sting losing to Triple H at WrestleMania still stings till this day.
The Asuka Vs Charlotte match was always a big "wrong person won this" moment for me.
Definitely the moment when I really started to sour on Charlotte Flair (and I'm still not fond of her cause of her booking) lol
Vince McMahon has never been a fan of booking Japanese talent to win a big one.
@@WalsallGoonerI think it’s more that Vince has always been obsessed with Charlotte. Just look at her main roster booking over the years, this whole video could’ve been dedicated to matches Charlotte objectively shouldn’t have won but did. Her entire 2020 was matches she shouldn’t have won, like the Royal Rumble (reportedly Shayna Baszler was slated to win before Charlotte “called in a favor”) and resulting Wrestlemania match with Rhea Ripley.
Asuka losing to Charlotte gets even more egregious when you realise that Asuka ended up losing a bunch to Carmella afterwards, and then having a sort-of nothing tag run with Naomi for a short while, before winning the title at TLC 2018, by which point she'd been long off the boil, and Becky Lynch had become the biggest face act on the roster. Furthermore, you could essentially have Asuka win the title at Mania 34, still keep the whole Becky/Charlotte angle running for Summerslam later that year, and almost nothing gets damaged by it - simply swap Carmella from the real match with Asuka, or make it a 4-way so that Asuka doesn't need to take the fall, therefore remaining unpinned.
@@MrBeardsley in fairness, being she is the daughter of Ric, that does give stroke, but another example is Nakamura not booked strongly to beat AJ Styles
@@sirkjohno0129 the fact that Asuka finally won the Smackdown women's championship only to lose it Charlotte right before mania was like a double gut punch 💀
Funny how Triple H is on the thumbnail 🤔
He should've been in a suit,sunglasses and clean-shaven. That was the most sinister version of HHH
The worst thing about Charlotte vs Asuka is it lead to years of Charlotte matches where her opponent should’ve won.
You can say to same for nearly every hhh match in the 2000s and especially in 2015.
WWE must want Charlotte to be able to jump back and forth between heel and face. Charlotte could get Dominik Mysterio heat with a catchphrase like "I'm a Flair, I get as many title shots as I want."
@@roccojamison89gooker51 which is basically the reason why she DID get all of her title runs. She's a Flair. She has terrific in-ring abilities but not enough charisma on the mic.
Maybe she can take some of the money she spends on her plastic surgery and get an acting coach.
To be honest, Asuka winning at Mania 34 wouldn't make any sense anyway since fans are known for turning on wrestlers who they want to win anyway. Also, giving that Asuka said that Charlotte Flair was her dream WrestleMania opponent, I think Asuka would have wanted to end the streak with Charlotte Flair beating her at WrestleMania
Didn't she lose the title the following Smackdown to Carmella as well? What was the point in her retaining again?
DDP turning the jack hammer into a diamond cutter on the way down would have been the most AMAZING FINISH in wrestling history.
El Dandy should have won against David Flair ...along with every other damn wrestler who ever had to go through the dishonor of jobbing to David Flair.
HHH over Sting, HHH over Booker T, HHH over Steiner… my guy definitely had a shovel attached to the other end of that sledgehammer.
HHH has losses against all those people except Sting.
@@Speedyreedy1218when it mattered less.
@@KingJadInfiniteHope Not true.
Any win over a top guy matters.
@Speedyreedy1218 Not really. Look at Solo Sikoa, Austin Theory, Roman Reigns 2015-2019, Baron Corbin etc. None of them benefited from beating legends
Wasn't Steiner in horrible shape at the time? I'm sure it probably wouldn't have mattered either way, but I recall people saying that during at least one of their matches, Steiner looked like terrible
There are not enough Hogan and Triple H Matches on this list.
So what matches do you want them to win?
That would be an uninspired video, almost as stale as some of their victories
@@Joe_Parmesan There is no commonality between the two.
@@Speedyreedy1218 I believe it would be more exciting to see other examples under the same premise.
I think the Undertaker's streak should have been left intact . To me the Undertaker is a legend .
My sentiments exactly! The wwe fans wouldn’t think less of him…& ‘taker doesn’t often win against lesnar! If anything lesnar should’ve been a close match & ‘taker manages 2 barely beat him & retire undefeated!
That interview with Vince saying Brock was the only one credible enough to end the streak was stupid. He only did it because he wanted a shocking "WrestleMania moment" (🙄) at WM30.
The streak did not need to end.
Brock should just put him over F*ck Paul Heyman
Idk tbh I think the streak should've ended at some point. It really can make someone a Megastar and could be used to catapult someone into the big time. I don't think I would've chose Lesnar to do it tbh since he really could've been where he was without it, but I'm in the belief it had to happen eventually.
@@JWS1985I mean at that time maybe there weren't too many guys who could've, but to say there weren't other people who could've done it is BS to me.
"Yay...Hulkamania...go get him..." 😅
That "Cena's worst year ever" thing was such a joke.
Could also make an argument for Bray Wyatt defeating Taker's streak and Taker passing the torch onto him as the "face of fear" and what not
Taker himself would agree with that
Yes! If it had to be someone it should have been him.
@@benzinoify Yep
@@Lemont5236 Definitely
Well, to be fair, Bray did end up using Taker's "dead man" gimmick.
Too soon?
Roman’s run right now is making the reign of terror look like nothing
Reign of Triumph
Wrestlemania 2000 main event still makes no sense. It should have been Rock vs Hunter and same goes for Booker and Hunter at Mania 19.
At least we got backlash 2000 for the rock sad for booker though
The whole event (Minus that triple threat for the IC and Euro and the Ladder match) Felt worthless honestly.
@@gatchywatchyentertainmentb2090yeah, I agree
I honestly wonder what the plan would have been had the ending to the 2000 Royal Rumble not been botched.
WM19 literally killed wrestling for me.
Sting losing to Triple H made no logical sense. Even less so when they have him eventually go on to challenge for the World Title. Why? He's had one match in the company, and he lost, and now he's challenging for the World Championship? If he had beaten Triple H, it would have made a lot more sense. I had no problem with him putting Rollins over in that match, but he sure as hell should have defeated Triple H in his debut match.
According to Road Dogg (I know) it was to help build up a triple h v Rock match the next year (which of course didn't happen)
Why does a WCW go over a WWF icon at WWF's biggest ppv?
Steve Austin entering his prime losing the WCW US title to Jim Duggan …
Should be every HHH match after 1999
Why?
I have one that's pretty recent. Asuka vs. Bianca Belair from WrestleMania 39. Asuka should have won, since her moment of glory in a WrestleMania had yet to come and that was the perfect opportunity.
Edge shouldn’t have beaten Finn at last WM either.
She shoul just go to AEW or TNA like every other female that got rejected
I think we don't think about Yokozuna being crapped on in the Mania 9 match as much as Bret because Yoko didn't give out about it for years.
He's also been dead since 2000, so he never really could.
Yeah that would keep him from complaining.
That was the first money in the bank cash in really, people loved it at the time but now it's been discussed out of orbit
No, it was more to do with the fact he knew he was going to win it straight back literally a couple of months later at King of the Ring.
I mean, Yoko also got his win back at KOTR. I'm sure it did suck in the moment, but getting that big singles win over Hogan would've made up for it, and may have even been better for Yoko in the long run.
I think Kane would be an acceptable person to end Taker's WM streak. The build up storyline would have so much history to lean on leading up to the match itself, and they could build off it in so many ways.
Hogan winning the 1990 Royal Rumble instead of Mr. Perfect, Nash beating Goldberg at Starrcade 98, Kurt Angle retaining the TNA World title vs. Bobby Roode at Bound For Glory 2011, Bobby Roode retaining the TNA World title vs. James Storm at Lockdown 2012.
Perfect not winning the Rumble is definitely a big underrated one to point out. Poor Hennig is always lauded as one of the best performers of the time, yet got very little time in the spotlight to show for it.
Cena losing to Taker at WrestleMania in a ridiculous manner was one of the stupid decisions ever made by Vince Macmahon.
The Undertaker's streak should have never been broken, at least not by Brock. If it had to be broken at least make it worth something.
Orton beating Hogan? That ain’t going to work for me brother. You don’t book Hulk if you want the other guy to win, those are the rules.
People don't pay to watch me lose brother.
Goldberg beating DDP is okay, the issue come up when you find out Nash was set to beat Goldberg. Then you rather have DDP do it.
Trips v Sting The Icon should have gone over!
I agree, The Icon should have made The Game tap cleanly
This match made me think of the lines from the one Billionaire Ted skit such as "How 'bout 'This is Where the Good 'Ol Boys Play?" Or Even Just the Old Boys Play?
Cena beating Brock was Vince punishing Brock for leaving.
So what was HHH losing to Brock for?
@@Speedyreedy1218Anal with Stephanie.
You guys are seriously desperate and bitter
Triple H is the king of winning matches he should not have won.
*Brock Lesnar
See-Nah
Fiend losing to Goldberg was a dumb decision but to be fair if he had won that match we likely wouldn't have got the highly acclaimed Firefly Funhouse match against Cena.
Verne Gagne reversing Hogan's win over Nick Bockwinkle is the first thing that comes to mind.
The AWA never had a chance after that.
Hogan is not going to do the job brotha 🤣🤣
"Well, that doesnt't work for me brother"
Everytime HHH wins any match, the wrong guy won
Not what I thought the video was about but here's another idea for a video, times when the wrong wrestler won or more accurately times one person was booked to win only for something to happen in the ring which caused someone else to win
exactly what I thought at first too
The thing is with Golberg vs Wyatt is that it shouldn't have happened in the first place.
Bray Wyatt should’ve faced Undertaker at Mania 30 and won. New face of fear… takes Undertaker’s power and goes undefeated for the next few Mania’s
Naw becuz bray wyatt's finishin moov didn't look strong enuff in my opinion.
Nexus vs WWE at SummerSlam would've been perfect for Cena to turned heel make like when Hogan turned and formed nWo
John cena beating the nexus at summerslam 2010 was the right call I’m saying again most of the criticism is buy dumb old idiotic attitude era fans who just wanted to see cena lose.
@@JLWprime10Or the people who wanted to see young talent become legit threats?
DDP didn't need to win Havoc 1998. He needed to look good.
The probably with discussing any change to DDP's title win or Goldberg's "first" loss is that there was no cohesive long term storytelling in WCW. DDP and Goldberg had more story than most guys in WCW, but they were individual stories with no one else involved, even each other.
More of an angle as much as a match but mines Abyss’ reign of terror on the x division being broken by dun dun duuuun Brian Kendrick 😞 😂 fair play Hogan for the gut check stuff and upping viewership a while but that winner and rvd beating aj was dumb dumb dumb.
You gotta admit, that smirk on Booker T’s mugshot is epic.
The Fiend vs. Randy Orton at WrestleMania 37 and The Fiend vs. Oldberg.
The fiend vs Randy wm 33 also
If the Tribal Chief had ended the streak, that definitely would have gotten him a lot of heat going into his heel run.
One i would of added is Shinsuke Nakamura vs Aj Styles at Wrestlemania 34 . Naka deserved that win
Man Trips wins at WrestleMania are so controversial
Which is why I always skip his match against Booker T at WM 19!
Wrestlemania 16, 18,19, 25 and especially 31 Triple H had no business winning
@@calebellis7173 agreed!
@@calebellis7173 The only one of those he shouldn't have won is 31.
@calebellis7173 let's be fair. I think his wins at mania 18, 25 were ok
Asuka will almost assuredly be losing this weekend to go to 0-6 at Wrestlemania. Beyond ridiculous. She's one of the best female wrestlers to ever work in WWE.
Great video. As always. Would love a Part 2.
Kane should have ended the streak long before it even became a thing.
Undurtaykur iz thuh golt
That sting run actually got me back watching wwe at that time and I instantly stopped again after that loss. Didn’t watch again till last year.
Bam Bam Bigelow should have beat Lawrence Taylor at Wrestlemania XI
Since you did the 2014 Royal Rumble match, how about its equally infamous follow-up in 2015?
Asuka losin any match is a big misstep!
Triple H is very cocky for a guy who was never even that good.
The dude finished a match with torn quad. Including being put in the walls of Jericho. He was a good wrestler and dedicated to the job.
@@ericjones1399 Not THAT good, though.
If he didn't marry Stephanie McMahon he would have been a mid card wrestler his whole career
This was a great concept. Keep up the good work. Love the channel.
Great video.. let's get a part 2 .
Biggest one i think not on this list has to be shawn michaels beating vader at summerslam 1996. Vader absolutely needed to win the title there and it completely destroyed his aura.
Allegedly, Goldberg was actually meant to win the Chamber match at SummerSlam 2003, but there was a European tour prior to it that Triple H wasn't feeling good for, so Goldberg was asked to take his place as the main event act, even though Goldberg wasn't originally scheduled to be a part of it. I know Goldberg has admitted that he turned down that request, so the '03 Chamber wound up really being a case of "Why you should be a team player in a wrestling company".
As for a match where the wrong guy won, I'll go with Bray Wyatt vs. Randy Orton at Mania 37. Randy got nothing out of the win, really, while Bray's anticipated return after getting immolated was stomped out, and then he got released not too long later, to boot.
Goldberg botched an off air live event exchange with HHH mid summer 2003 resulting in injuring his groin. So it delayed their eventual one on one. The European tour incident probably exacerbated the issue.
And didn't Orton lose it a month later?
@@Speedyreedy1218I think you're thinking about Mania 33, he was talking about Mania 37 where they brought the fiend back to lose at mania and get fired
I kinda feel that Shawn needed that win at WM21 against Angle. They were both 'Made Men' but Shawn really coulda used another WM win for his 'Mr. Wrestlemania' moniker.
Yes, but I can accept that one. But Shawn losing against Cena in WrestleMania 23 was just disappointing.
@@luispereira5177 Yeah, Super-Cena decisively beating Triple H AND Shawn Michaels in back-to-back WrestleManias felt insulting, especially to long term fans.
The same people that boo and whine and complain that Hogan went out with a win in his last match, because “he didn’t put anybody over going out”. Are the same goofs that cheer and praise that Sting won his last match without “putting anybody over” and “doing the right thing” 🤦♂️😂. The hipster hogan hate is ridiculous sometimes……… BROTHER!
Triple H was Vince's ultimate tool in burying ex-WCW guys because he couldn't do it himself
And Asuka isn't allowed to win at Wrestlemania at all. Yet her team winning this year may hurt Jade Cargill. So the ramifications for that Charlotte match stretch for years.
Jade is bloody overrated. Only reason they sign her is because of her looks and not her ring skills which she clearly lacks. Damage control are going to lose their momentum again because wwe only cares about their new shiny toys!
Cena and Batista didn't have ring skills, just bodies. And Vince pushed them hard too. Same with Hogan and Warrior.
Damage ctrl can still win without hurting Jade, have Naomi be the sacrificial lamb.
Have Bianca & Jade fight Kairi & Dakota outside while Asuka beats Naomi by hitting her with the tag title.
Asuka finally gets her Mania win but not at the expense of Jade or Bianca.
@@Jiren261 Asuka needs to beat a top star for it to matter. Pinning Naomi means nothing. Pinning Bianca who beat Charlotte is the money decision.
“That’s just not gonna work for me brother”
Mr Perfect 1990 Royal Rumble comes to mind. They were going Warrior v Hogan and Mania anyways, it wasn’t for #1 contender back then and lastly it would have gave Warrior a feud after Mania. But Hogan had to change the finish.
I love him to bits, but David Arquette should have never won the WCW title, that's one match that comes to mind
The king of backstage politics as you could literally make a video where Hogan should have lost but Hogan would say that doesn't work for me brother.
That would be a 10 part one hour video for Political Hogan.
Sting vs. HHH will always be the greatest case of "the wrong guy won", in my opinion.
Why have wcw beat wwf??!!
@@thomassalas5191On their show?
Booker and HHH had the funniest vignettes in wrestling history!
Booker has Paul Boesch' Ring he wore RELIGIOUSLY on 📺! Fun fact! Thx for the post! 💪
For me, a match where the wrong person won was in the RAW Women's Championship match at Wrestlemania 36 between Becky Lynch and Shayna Baszler. Baszler was built as this unstoppable force. She even literally defeated everyone in the Elimination Chamber. Even Lynch herself said she wanted to drop the belt to Shayna but the company said no. Given that Lynch was pregnant and going on maternity leave, she wasn't going to be champion either way. So why not make Shayna champion? Yes we did see that touching moment on RAW between Becky and Asuka who won Money in the Bank but still Baszler should've won.
In hindsight I understand why he didn't win, but I still say Shawn Michaels should have won the title against Cena at WrestleMania 23.
Disagree cena needed the win to make cena look like a big deal
Woooooooooooo
Please do more of these. Thus was fun and im sure your community will have lots of great selections.
Before I watch. HHH v Booker T still stings
Everybody knew Booker T had no chance
Steal Sting's 🤔
@@mizer9510Sure, Jan.
I'll never understand people who say the streak shouldn't have ended. The entire point of the streak was to make the person who eventually broke it a star. I agree it was wasted on Brock because he was already arguably the biggest star in the company, but not ending it at all would have been a massive waste of 20+ years of work.
Ultimately the whole point of booking anyone strongly is to make them a star and by extension, make the person who beats them a star.
Yeah, it'd be really awesome for Undertaker to have that record, but putting people over and elevating them is part of the cycle of the business.
I would have given it to Roman or Bray Wyatt. Taker himself thinks Bray should have ended it so he's my first choice.
The biggest example: Kane should have won the tittle against triple h and should have NEVER unmasked.
Unmasked Kane was amazing in 03 though
@@LRM5195 You could have that destructive kane with the mask on, no need to ruin the mystic around him.
@@slifer875 I’d say he should’ve put the mask back on maybe after WM21 or something but that’s just me. He stayed unmasked too long.

Triple H vs. (insert name of wrestler here)
My favorite wrestling channel
For me it was Benoit vs Orton at Summerslam 2004. Benoit should have 100% won and kept the title. The only reason why Orton won was because they wanted to stick it to Brock Lesnar for leaving and give Orton the new record for youngest champion. It was a terrible decision though.
How about the Benoit experiment had run its course and the Lesnar thing was just a convenience people decided to spin as undoubted truth?
Hindsight says the child murderer should have never been WHC
@@TheRealAhoyHow had Benoit as champion run it's course? He was still massively popular and getting cheered every night, plus was outstanding and exciting in the ring. Nobody was asking for Orton to win the title that early in his career.
@@mizer9510 "Massively popular" 😂
I loved my boy Chris and I had my own preferences but it's good to know how much you don't understand if you want to learn things and Benoit as champ was a fad destined to run its course. In a couple of years people were watching him in us title matches and they weren't clamouring for his return to regular main events.
@@TheRealAhoy Are you serious? I watched every week and he was the biggest draw and most popular wrestler on Raw. You clearly didn't watch. There are many reasons he got dropped down to US Title matches none were his fault. Triple H was basically running Raw and was on his power trip, he was a WCW guy and they never really wanted to put WCW guys over, and third is because they he bacame part of the Smackdown six so they could get better ratings. Do your homework before you open your mouth.
Excellent topic. Please do more
Love your content keep up the phenomenal work 😊
That intro is hard 🔥
Trips going over Booker clean at WM19 was my breaking point as a wrestling fan. I've never gone back to watching.
Your videos have THE BEST soundtracks
It is so crazy what happened to Asuka. Undefeated phenom... a SURE THING to win at WM 34... and then... here we are, 6 years later and Asuka STILL doesn't have a win at WrestleMania. It is such a travesty.
That hulk hogan vs yokozuna match makes absolutely no sense to me. It seems so forced. Brett be like "you go in and best him for the title since I'm incapable of beating him. Only you can." That could have potentially hurt his character more. But thankfully people forgot this pretty quick and it didn't hurt him.
It was by Vince's call
@@lexkanyima2195Wasn't it Hogan's idea?
@@BUPMY1 no
Sting vs HHH single handedly killed the "at least I performed at WrestleMania" reason for wrestlers to sign with WWE.
100% completely agree on the suggestion that the streak could (and I think should) have never been broken. Everyone talks about passing the torch, putting guys over blah blah.. Undertaker is a special case though, someone that has given his life and body to wrestling. Why couldn't his streak have remained, he deserved something like that tied to him. I don't think we'll ever see anyone get near to the numbers he had at WM to be honest.
Sting vs Triple H was indeed a strange one. Made absolutely no sense that anything other than a Sting win would happen. Funny story - I watched this WM with a few mates and one of them was placing bets on the matches before the event started. I told him to lump on Sting to win, it'd be free money. 'Are you SURE?' he asked me. 'Mate, it's Sting. A wrestling legend, someone that the WWE have probably had a hard time convincing to come over. You really think he's going to agree to sign and then lose his first match on the biggest stage of all? No bloody way. That would be insane. Sting will 100% win, I put my life on it....'
Well.
The annoying thing about brock breaking the streak is that personally I think the best possible option to break the streak would just have been a single mania away, at 31 Taker would have faced Bray Wyatt, which sure Bray was constantly misused but imagine how thematically perfect it would have been and how much good it would have done in repairing the damage his feud and losses to John Cena
