10 Awesome Wrestling PPVs With Only One Bad Match

Match: Tazz vs. Al Snow.

Look into the eyes of a man who knows things are not going particularly well.

2000 couldn't have started out any hotter for Tazz - his WWF debut against Kurt Angle was fab, but then things went sour. By July's Fully Loaded, the former ECW hard nut was having nothing matches against Al Snow in front of a bored crowd who wanted to ogle some t-shirts at the merch stalls instead.

Fully Loaded was some pay-per-view. The six-person opener (notable for Trish Stratus doing some wrasslin') was hot, Val Venis vs. Rikishi in the cage featured a stunning splash bump, and the three headline attractions kicked arse from beginning to end.

Then, there was this early 'let me up' that symbolised how little the McMahon family thought of Tazz's prospects of becoming the top star everybody thought he'd be. Was the match poorly worked? No, but it definitely weighed the pay-per-view down a little.

Check out Jericho vs. Triple H though. What a scorcher that was.
