10 Most Surprising PPV Headliners In WWE History

10. The Dudley Boyz - Great American Bash 2004

In one of the most bizarre PPV matches in the last 15 years, the main event of The Great American Bash 2004 saw The Undertaker square off with both Dudley Boyz in a handicap Concrete Crypt match.

For those wondering, a Concrete Crypt match is like any other match, except for the fact that 'Taker's manager, Paul Bearer, was perilously sat in a glass "crypt" underneath a cement funnel. If 'The Deadman' lost, Bearer would be buried beneath the cement and 'Taker wouldn't be the only dead man in the building that night.

After a typically back and forth main event, The Undertaker was victorious, pinning D-Von after the Tombstone Piledriver. Despite winning, 'Taker wound up pulling the lever himself, releasing the cement and burying his own manager alive - all the while making the entire match that preceded it completely pointless. A head-scratcher if there ever was one.

Aside from the ten-man tag at Invasion 2001, this was the first and only WWE PPV that Bubba Ray and D-Von ever headlined. However, they would return to the main event scene for ECW One Night Stand in 2005.
