10 Stupidest WWE Main Events

1. John Laurinaitis vs. John Cena (Over The Limit 2012)

Daniel Bryan vs. CM Punk is one match that many fans of professional wrestling would happily watch any day of the week. It stands to reason that whenever a bout such as that between a pair of world-class performers is on the show, it deserves to be considered as a main event. That rings even more true when considering that it's the most highly-anticipated match on the show in question here. At Over The Limit 2012, WWE chose to go with another of their featured rivalries instead. John Cena vs. John Laurinaitis will never happen again, and there will be a lot of folks thankful for that. There's no problem with putting a retired former wrestler in there against a current top babyface star, Laurinaitis was over during his run as the tyrannical GM of Monday Night Raw. The complication comes when promotions expect fans to accept such a match as a Pay-Per-View main event. Right up until the finish, when The Big Show perplexed everyone by turning heel and helping Laurinaitis win the match, Cena was creaming his foe. The whole affair was pretty much a glorified squash until the end, and couldn't ever hope to live up to Bryan vs. Punk. Those men crafted a 25-minute demonstration of talent, drama and genuine pro wrestling, and that should have headlined. What other WWE main events can you think of that shouldn't have went on last?
