10 Awful Wrestling Matches That Stunk Up Arenas
8. The Brothers Of Destruction Vs. Kronik - WWF Unforgiven 2001
This match was the nadir of an Invasion angle that misused oceans of talent and killed stone dead a worldwide wrestling brand which, while devalued, still had potential for resuscitation.
Brian Adams and Bryan Clark were never in danger of approaching the heights of the Brain Busters, but prior to this disgrace, they could at least exchange very basic moves.
Jim Ross suffered the commentator's curse shortly after the bell. "Adams and Clark - they're two big, powerful men. They wanna make an impact". They did make an impact - this match stands below even Gerald Brisco Vs. Pat Patterson at King Of The Ring 2000 as the worst of the Attitude Era.
They seemed to be in a different time zone to their opponents. Clark fell on his a*se when taking a neckbreaker in the precise moment the match fell apart entirely. Proceedings degenerated so irrevocably into farce from there that at one point, commentator Paul Heyman implored Bryan Clark, at the top of his voice, to turn around and get himself into the correct position for Undertaker's chokeslam.
He was acting as Clark's mouthpiece at the time.
This match wasn't fought under Tornado rules, but it would have been an appropriate stipulation; it was a frenzied disaster on an epic scale. 'Taker was furious after the match, as were WWE officials. Adams was sent to developmental territory HWA, while Clark refused - and was promptly given his marching orders.
He didn't know the direction in which to walk out.
