10 Bizarre Wrestling Epics That Didn’t Live Up To The Hype

An infamously bad match that has almost been around long enough to become charmingly sh*te instead of criminally so, the eight-on-two triple decker cage match was at very least the type of WCW experimentation WWE were notoriously immune to in the mid-1990s.

Hulk Hogan's ego was bigger than his arms by 1996, booed mercilessly by Atlanta loyalists to such an extent that he believed the only way to win them back around was to keep on winning. And winning big.

Making buffoons out of almost every major heel in the company at the time (though notably not most over villain Brian Pillman, who clocked Hogan's gamesmanship and used a nagging injury to rule himself out of the entire farce), Hogan and Savage worked their way down cages in subpar wars with a greatest hits collection of their best and worst rivals.

Ric Flair and Zeus alike were vanquished by pair, but the Monster Maniacs were no Mega Powers. As proven when Brutus Beefcake in his 'Booty Man' persona broke in armed with frying pans to help the score victory over the crew. With their credibility already stripped, the botched heel miscommunication between Lex Luger and Ric Flair that led to 'The Nature Boy' taking the fall (because of course he did) couldn't harm than anymore than the prior 25 minutes already had.
