10 Pay-Per-View Main Events WWE Could Actually Call The Worst EVER
9. Extreme Elimination Chamber (December To Dismember)
Butchering a brand perhaps by design rather than due to the blow-up he'd had with Paul Heyman earlier that day, Vince McMahon assuming control of his third brand's first and only pay-per-view created the commercial justification for rebadging it as a proto-NXT late in the decade.
Mere months before he put the belt on himself, McMahon awarded it to man he presumably still considers to be an avatar for him to this very day. Long before Bobby Lashley was rattling Rusev's wife, he was rattling cages for all the wrong reasons following a w*nky win in a w*nky match.
The Extreme Elimination Chamber required pristine booking to get it over the line thanks to the silliness of weapons being trapped in every pod and half the field being made up of audience-baiting heels, but the company instead ended the top babyface's undefeated streak thanks to the only other babyface in the match and then eliminated him immediately after. CM Punk and Rob Van Dam's early exits were supposed to facilitate space for Lashley to shine, but the emptying/braying audience proffered the worst possible spotlight.
