"Startling" might cover this one-two punch too.

WWE are a business, and businesses want to make money. That's fine, but there needs to be some care for what that businesses' core fanbase wants to see. Sadly, when Vince McMahon decided to tie-in with Zack Snyder's 'Army Of The Dead' at WrestleMania Backlash he...didn't give a rat's ass about that.

Zombies skulked around ringside during The Miz vs. Damian Priest. These undead lumberjacks then devoured Miz, thus writing him off television for a short while, post-match. The whole angle was terrible, but it wasn't the last time WWE went "Hollywood" in 2021.

Who will ever forget the egg hunt at Survivor Series? Vinnie Mac was gifted an ornamental egg by The Rock (this was a tie-in with Dwayne's 'Red Notice' flick), and was horrified when it went missing. Cue a WWE-wide search that nobody watching on pay-per-view really asked for.

What. The. F*ck. Was. This. All. About?
