10 Insane WWE Stunts That Were Totally Pointless
1. Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Elsewhere in this list, Shane McMahon is taken to task for putting his body under unnecessary pressure in order to elevate himself rather than improve an otherwise-awful match with The Undertaker. As usual, his father had shown him how to perform such a role, but Vince literally cut a little too close to the bone in order to add more drama to an already-evocative Survivor Series 2003 Buried Alive battle with 'The Deadman'.
It was a match orchestrated to bid farewell to the 'American Bad Ass' persona, but McMahon seemed intent on killing himself to prove he was every bit as tough as the company's Phenom-come-motorbike-Enthusiast. The Chairman seems to find an artery in his forehead from literally the first punch - the blood gushes immediately, staining the canvas and The Undertaker's fight gloves before pooling on the mats outside the ring.
McMahon's platelets were left behind at other shows before and after the brawl, which is in essence why this particular bloodletting was so unnecessary. He'd already emerged as if from hell against Hulk Hogan earlier that year, and would again in countless other bananas brawls over the years.
