It's simply the law of averages, because of the sheer amount of Pay-Per-Views wrestling companies have put over over the years, there's bound to be some duds. It's just the way it is, and as unfortunate as that fact may be, even the worst of pro wrestling supershows thankfully have at least one match fans can scrape some enjoyment from. Of course, there are exceptions, such as the horrendous WWE-promoted ECW December To Dismember of 2006, an event so utterly devoid of entertainment that it had fans screaming in unison for their money back by the end. Cheerfully, such occurrences have been kept largely to a minimum, although there have been occasions during which the people in the stands wonder if the folks writing this stuff are aware that it's supposed to be be exciting. Every so often, a card comes along that baffles the brain - severely lacking in entertainment, these shows are gratefully saved by one bout. Not necessarily falling in the main event spotlight, these matches should be heavily applauded for dragging a show out of the mire, making it somewhat worthwhile for fans to check out. This list takes in 10 of the best examples of this, where the efforts of just a few wrestlers fat outweighed what everyone else was doing on the card.
