10 Least Convincing Weapons In WWE

3. Cardboard Boxes

R-Truth Rey Mysterio Extreme Rules 2011

Ah, the dreaded cardboard box, the joker of the foreign objects deck, the wild card of pain.

With its destructive force fuelled entirely by sheer human imagination as to its contents, the cardboard box can be used for bludgeoning, breaking falls and burying men in an avalanche of backstage wreckage.

Surely, these are boxes of cinderblocks and/or steel rebar… lovingly packed, of course, in those little foam pellets that fly out every time. Was that just a box of air that came crashing down on Al Snow's head (as in, his actual head,) or more likely, did it contain a 12,000 BTU air conditioner?

Every time someone sold a collision with a cardboard receptacle, they silently invited the viewer to let their fancy run wild. The boxes themselves might as well have had question marks painted on them.

No, folks, they were just boxes of packing pellets.
