10 Wrestlers Who Were Wrongly Judged On ONE Match

10. Tazz Is "Dangerous"

Nobody who witnessed it will ever forget Tazz's debut at the 2000 Royal Rumble.

The ex-ECW hard man suplexed the undefeated Kurt Angle out of his boots, then quickly locked on a choke for the submission. This was decisive booking at its best, and it made Tazz look like a million bucks instantly. The problem was that, well, those damn suplexes worried some behind the curtain at MSG.

Both Bruce Prichard and Jim Ross have said on their respective podcasts that a few of the other wrestlers expressed concerns that Tazz was reckless and dangerous between the ropes. That wasn't true, or fair - Angle himself has revealed on his own pod that he was 100% up for every suplex, and called his peer a controlled, safe worker.

Still, mud sticks. Suddenly, Vince McMahon wasn't so sure that the grappling machine who'd played before a huge pop in his most famous venue was trustworthy enough to push. Then, suddenly, Tazz's smaller size became a problem too.

How unfair.
