10 Infamous Wrestling Matches That Took Place Outside The Ring

8. Dustin Rhodes Vs. Blacktop Bully - King Of The Road Match (WCW Uncensored '95)

WCW tried to present a unique match at their Uncensored '95 pay-per-view and if that was their only goal, the "King Of The Road Match' was a success.

Unfortunately, it was poorly-received and actually lead to the termination of both participants, Dustin Runnels (aka Dustin Rhodes, Goldust) and Barry Darsow, formerly known as Demolition Smash and Repo Man.

The "match" between Rhodes and The Bully took place on an 18-wheeler carrying the two participants and a huge cage full of bails of hay. The goal was for the competitors to make their way to the front of the truck and blow the horn that was placed near the back of the cab,, but the vehicle was supposedly moving at a rate of 55 miles per hour.

As you could imagine with the bout taking place on a moving tractor trailer, it hardly resembled a wrestling match and much of it featured Rhodes and Bully separated from each other or throwing things back and forth, filmed from a wide angle.

Thankfully, the match came to an end after 13 long minutes when Bully rung the horn. Unfortunately for both wrestlers, Eric Bischoff fired the pair because of the appearance of blood in the match which was against WCW's policy.
