10 Most INSANE Things Wrestling Companies Did For The Money
1. Zombies Invade WWE (And Devour The Miz)
Here it is, people! The undoubted kingpin of take-the-money-and-run cross-promotions in wrestling history, and a reminder that WWE will do anything to make cash. Apologies in advance if you'd somehow managed to eject this from your brains since it happened.
Damian Priest beat The Miz in a 'Zombie Lumberjack Match' when various extras (including former favourite Scotty Too Hotty) dressed up as the undead at WrestleMania Backlash 2021. This was a tie-in with Batista's 'Army Of The Dead' movie, and it was downright horrible to witness.
At one point, the zombies even devoured Miz as the announcers wondered if he'd make it out of the ThunderDome alive. Then, Miz showed up on TV soon after like nothing had happened. The match was genuinely torturous to watch.
Try to forget it again.
