10 Most Surreal WWE Matches Ever

10. Donald Trump Vs. Rosie O'Donnell - RAW, January 8, 2007

The one time Vince McMahon was alert to the pulse of wider culture, post-Attitude Era, saw him capitalise on the beef between pre-presidential Donald Trump and Rosie O'Donnell - and book two impersonators to settle their differences on the flagship. We often complain, exaggeratedly, that Vince McMahon plays to an audience of one. This is that complaint manifested literally; absolutely everybody in the audience rejected this self-serving bullsh*t.

The match began with Trump and O'Donnell trading barbs. "I'm gonna take everything you have and buy me a large pizza!" said Rosie - as if Trump's historic involvement with WWE and O'Donnell's very being wasn't enough to help you determine whose side Vince was on. Trump constantly tended to his hair, destroying the rule of the running gag. Rosie was in no condition to perform, at first. She needed a prematch meal, and so tucked in to some ringside cake. Rosie took over the early going - because, naturally, she had the weight advantage. Trump, fighting back, roared "Come on fatty - come here and get some barbecue sauce!"

Yes, McMahon made certain to throw in a Jim Ross-sized dig, too.

They riffed on the Hogan Vs. André WrestleMania III finish to finish, and the folly was profundly exposed; never had WWE seemed so small-time.
