10 Great Wrestling Matches That SUCKED Live
10. Rey Mysterio Vs. Ultimo Dragon
Where: WCW Hog Wild 1996
The Match: Rey Mysterio and Ultimo Dragon was a breathtaking example of everything that was right with WCW's Cruiserweight division. It had the stunts, it had a killer international flavour and it opened the pay-per-view presentation wonderfully well.
Why It Sucked: A biker rally in Sturgis was not the right place to take in high-flying Cruiser action.
Fans in South Dakota revved their engines, sank some beers and generally greeted Rey vs. Ultimo like two kids putting on a dance routine. Basically, they politely watched, but didn't seem to grasp the in-ring wizardry that was on offer - that's what WCW get for promoting shows in front of folks who didn't watch week-to-week.
Any hardcore WCW fans who did make the trip to Sturgis might've felt out of place for loving every second of this opening scorcher. That's a damn shame, but at least it looked great on TV.
