Despite the misgivings of many fans, most people would generally agree that the company have been responsible for many of the most ground-breaking, explosive and memorable moments on wrestling TV in the entire history of the industry. That said, there are times when WWF/WWE haven't really hit the mark, disappointing and/or baffling a plethora of people in the process. Whether it be confusing characters, outright stupid choices or silly plot points, WWE don't always hit their intended target, but what about those moments that should have been utterly terrible, yet somehow ended up providing at least a little entertainment? Sure, some of the choices contained in this article were never going to win any awards from fans, but they weren't quite as bad as first feared. Yes, writing and producing WWE television must be an arduous, challenging task, but it surely must tickle the writers when something that initially seems like filler or a needless swerve actually ends up being wholly entertaining.
