10 Times We Couldn't Figure Out What The F*** WWE Was Thinking
10. JBL Vs. Godzilla
Coming in the thick of the pair's rivalry over the WWE Championship in early 2005, JBL thought the best way to keep from having to fight the Big Show inside of a barbed-wire steel cage at No Way Out was to shoot the giant with a tranquilliser gun on SmackDown.
So far, so sports entertainment.
One thing led to another, the champ ended up being blasted instead, and a supposedly disorientated JBL then proceeded to wander around backstage and pick fights with inflatable dinosaurs.
And with this particular edition of the blue show going down in Japan, someone clearly thought it would be a hilarious move to have the heelish, out-of-sorts Bradshaw take his blow-up Godzilla down to the ring and begin referencing how the folks in attendance, who "eat noodles", were scared of the big lizard.
You can literally hear Vince McMahon erupting with glee in Gorilla at the sight of JBL stripping down to his pink undies as an unsure audience can't decide whether to awkwardly laugh or boo the surreal scenario.
Of course, the entire thing turned out to be little more than a ruse designed to catch Show off-guard. But not even an admittedly ferocious giant toppling of JBL's Cabinet could keep folks from wondering how this deeply unfunny show-long sketch managed to make it past the pitching stage on the Road to WrestleMania 21.
