WWE: Batista - 5 Awesome Matches And 5 That Sucked

Matches That Sucked

5. Batista vs Big Show - ECW (2006) ... (ECWWE?)

What is the to say? The new ECW was a debacle. For fans who'd watched the original, the inclusion of talents like Batista and Big Show was a laughable disaster. At the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York, the venue of the final ECW pay-per-view in 2001, the two men were berated and booed by the angry crowd. WWE had brought back something that it had no idea how to market, build or capitalise on. Giving the audience these two was not the answer. Big and muscular stars was not what ECW was built from the ground up on. Batista and Big Show got the brunt of the frustration from the fans here, resulting in an awkward looking match in which they both most likely just wanted to get it the hell over with and out of New York. If you like to see a crowd undercut a match, this is for you! The link above doesn't have it in its entirety, but I reckon you won't mind.
