10 2020 Moments WWE Must NEVER Do Again

10. A “Monster” Ending

If someone ever compiles a list of wacky reasons why wrestling matches never took place, they might want to analyse Backlash 2020. There, The Street Profits and Viking Raiders brawled outside the Performance Center before being accosted by a large, tentacled monster.

Michael Cole then calmly told viewers that the Raw Tag Title bout wouldn't take place.

The title of this entry might suggest "monster" is positive. It's...not. This was totally guff, and it was a blight on the cinematic landscape pro wrestling leaned on so heavily last year. Two tags warring with ninjas, bowling balls and a beast that wouldn't look out of place in some B-movie's deleted scene reel doesn't cut it.

WWE shouldn't end a match (or any segment really) like this ever again. No excuses - this was atrocious, and it failed to land even as light-hearted comedy bullsh*t.
