2. Batista (c) vs Great Khali - Punjabi Prison Match / World Heavyweight Championship Match - No Mercy 2007
My goodness. If there was ever a rule of thumb for a professional wrestling match, it's that you need to be able to buy into the drama, to understand what's going on to be able to invest. The Punjabi Prison Match was the opposite of this. Writing this article I was going to try to get to grips with it, but can't bring myself to do it. Please let me know if you can clearly summarise what's going on! The way the commentators try to sell you the garbage you're watching is intolerable too. As the bamboo prison lowers JBL exclaims: "Michael, I got hear early just to come and see, witness this spectacle called the Punjabi Prison." There's an alright moment where Batista jumps from one cage to another, but at that point it's kind of like putting a cherry on top of a steaming turd. Oh yeah and also, The Great Khali. Enough said.
