10 Reasons Why The 1995 King Of The Ring Is WWE's Worst PPV Ever
1. King Mabel
Of all the decisions WWE made in 1995 that they'd probably like to take back, this one could very well top the list.
Worse than having Lawrence Taylor main event WrestleMania, because that actually lead to some mainstream publicity, worse than letting Diesel run with the strap for nearly the entire year, worse than Mantaur, Well Dunn, Isaac Yankem, D.D.S, Aldo Montoya, and Tekno Team 2000 was the decision to crown Mabel from Men On A Mission the 1995 King Of The Ring.
After the elimination of the hottest talent at the time in Shawn Michaels, the show took a turn. While some fans held out hope for The Undertaker to win the tournament, they soon realized that all hope was lost.
Fans chanted "ECW! ECW!" during the tournament finals between Mabel and Savio Vega and it became clear that WWE had totally lost its audience.
After the match, Mabel's tag partner Mo read from a scroll during the coronation as fans littered the stage with trash and other debris. It wasn't seen as good heat because Mabel was such a strong heel, instead, it was a display of the live crowd's disgust at WWE's latest poor booking decision.
Out of all the moments that made the '95 King Of The Ring a disaster, crowning King Mabel has to be #1.
