10 Reasons Why The 1995 King Of The Ring Is WWE's Worst PPV Ever

10. Injured Razor Ramon

Let's start with the fact that Razor Ramon, the previous year's King Of The Ring runner-up, won his qualifying match but was removed from the 1995 tournament due to a legit rib injury.

A last-minute match took place on the countdown show, Sunday Night Slam, that saw Savio Vega battle Irwin R. Schyster with the winner getting Razor's freed-up tournament spot.

This is the one entry that won't fall on the shoulders of Vince McMahon, Pat Patterson, Bruce Prichard or anyone else involved in booking WWE at the time, as it involved a legitimate injury to a talent that couldn't have been avoided.

The Bad Guy had just come off a victory over the Intercontinental Champion Jeff Jarrett and The Roadie in a 2-on-1 handicap match at the very first In Your House. Instead of giving Razor one final chance to regain the Intercontinental Title, considering he pinned Jarrett clean at In Your House, WWE threw Razor in the tournament.

That's not the worst move, assuming Razor was booked to go far in the tournament, if not win it all, but that's not what we got.

Despite escorting Savio to the ring at the event, The Bad Guy did not perform in the ring and it didn't help the quality of the show.
