10 Times Great Wrestlers Got Lazy In Big Matches

4. The Undertaker Vs. JBL (SummerSlam 2004)

The Undertaker's SummerSlam 2004 bout with JBL isn't the worst match of his career. A wrestling legend he may be, but 'The Deadman' served up countless stinkers over the years, stretching all the way to his dire retirement clash with Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 32.

Matches like that, his HIAC match against Big Boss Man, and the 'Fake Undertaker' debacle make the JBL contest look like Flair vs. Steamboat. Regardless, it was one of the least inspiring performances 'Taker ever produced on a big stage.

The first in a long series of dull matches between the two, it took place during Bradshaw's infamously tedious WWE Championship reign. The bulk of 'Taker's most famously lazy performances took place during his biker phase, but his rivalry with JBL shows how long it took him to get the habit out of his system, and this clash stands as one of his biggest snoozefests.

Bradshaw has never been a super worker himself, and often came off like a second-rate Stan Hansen tribute act, but Undertaker's inactivity still stood out. The crowd were so disengaged by the non-action that they spent most of the match in a Mexican Wave, before the bout ended with an intelligence-insulting double DQ finish.
