10 Atrocious WWE Matches That Were Unintentionally Funny

9. The €œGimmick€ Battle Royal

When people talk about Wrestlemania 17, it's usually in the context of being the greatest WWE PPV of all time, which you'd be hard-pressed to argue. Therefore, the €œGimmick€ Battle Royal often tends to get omitted from such discussions! Whilst officially running only a shade over three minutes, the segment itself went more like ten with the majority of that taken up by the entrances of all 19 combatants, in addition to guest commentators €œMean€ Gene Okerlund and Bobby €œThe Brain€ Heenan. Presenting a mixture of genuinely successful ex-stars such as Sgt. Slaughter and The Iron Sheik with a showcase of some of WWE's worst gimmicks of the cartoon era of the late 80s, this match was so sloppy the old-timers weren't so much thrown out of the ring, rather they fell out. Considering the presence of Tugboat, Earthquake and Kamala, a run-in from the Big Show was all that was missing to turn this bout into a tribute to the Dungeon of Doom! Factor in dust bin men, Goons, Jim Cornette and the Gobbledy f'kin Gooker and you have a cauldron of slapstick s*** that could only have been brewed by Vince McMahon.
