10 Insane WWE Stunts That Were Totally Pointless

At WWE Evolution, Trish Stratus will take on Alexa Bliss in a clash of styles and era. Though borne of different generations, Bliss can thank herself lucky that she wasn't around during the Divas Division icon's day. She too would have had to try and make chicken salad out of chicken sh*t - or whatever substance they were putting in a pool for the only female segments on Monday Night Raw.

Given the 'Bra and Panties Mud Match' as her task for the evening alongside Stacy Keibler, Stratus has since gone on record to claim the enormous bump from the top of the stage into a shallow paddling pool was all her idea in a quest to at least make the segment memorable for more than just the painfully obvious.

It was moments such as this that placed Trish in an upper echelon of female performers, particularly when there was so little to cling on to elsewhere in her league. Despite the spectacle of the dive (and a brief inclusion into the Monday Night Raw credits), the stunt was predictably forgotten within minutes, like all the dispiritingly disposable nature of the content.
