10 Times WWE Got Their Own BAD Ideas WRONG
10. The Gobbledy Gooker Hatches
Far from egg-cellent.
That'd sum up the curious case of The Gobbledy Gooker. Teasing what was inside a giant egg was an erm...curious way to hype Survivor Series 1990, but it might've been cool had some vicious heel torn out of the thing to destroy a babyface and kick off the fed's next hot feud. Of course, that didn't happen.
Instead, a dancing turkey jigged with Gene Okerlund as ringsiders looked on wondering why they'd fallen for the WWF's promotion before this awful pay-per-view reveal. Poor Hector Guerrero had to dress in the awkward outfit and do his best to entertain. The dude was fighting a losing battle from the get go.
Look, having someone else on the roster break free from the shell and ambush an opponent would've been silly, but at least it might've led to something else. The Gooker's debut is roundly regarded as one of the lowest WWF/WWE moments ever, and rightly so.
