10 Most Gloriously Overbooked Matches In Wrestling History
8. Three Cages, Ten Competitors And Absolutely No Logic
From the moment that Hulk Hogan walked into the WCW, it became clear that the company felt all other performers were now secondary. As such, they began a series of storylines where nearly every piece of talent was thrown at the Hulkster so that he may best them all in convincing fashion. When they ran out of actual talent to squash, the company began to create a series of Scooby Doo-like villains collectively known as the Dungeon of Doom, who eventually teamed up with the legendary Four Horsemen to defeat Hulk Hogan and occasional BFF Randy Savage once and for all. Of course, the only way that they could properly blow-off a feud of such epic proportions would be in your standard Doomsday Triple Cage Match at Uncensored 1996. Naturally. What is a Doomsday Triple Cage Match? Thats a very good question that even the performers in this contest seemingly didnt know how to answer. In lieu of a clear set of match rules, this contest instead featured a series of increasingly bizarre occurrences that attempted to resolve nearly every poorly-booked feud that served as its catalyst. A large number of overly-scripted spots took place as Hogan and Savage worked their way towards escape and not a single one of them went off without comedic error. Thankfully fans everywhere were eventually relieved from their bewildered agony when The Booty Man handed Hulk Hogan and Macho Man a couple of frying pans that allowed them to take down the heels without serious effort. Our heroes were able to make their triumphant escape, though not before a quick pinfall on Ric Flair which was in no way necessary to win the match.
