10 Worst Examples Of Advertising In Wrestling History
7. Magneto Shows Up
Did Damien Sandow run over Vince's dog or something? Throughout 2014 he was a perennial joke. When he wasn't losing to Scooby Doo's best pal Sin Cara, he was dressing as a Sonic employee and scuffling with Adam Rose over a hot dog. But this is the nadir. This is when the WWE fans knew that Sandow was in a tailspin. Hugh Jackman came to RAW to promote the latest X-Men movie, and while that's sort of ... fine, maybe. Seeing a big celebrity on RAW is, for most people, about as exciting as seeing him on a talk show i.e. not very, but the crowd seemed to get a kick out of it. Then Damien Sandow appeared, dressed in Magneto pyjamas. Full credit to the man, he bafflingly gives it everything he's got before being hip-tossed by Hugh, a civilian let's not forget, and then receiving a Zig Zag for his troubles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhvXf86PsDM Sure this was embarrassing, but Sandow's shilled a lot in the past. What is it that cements this on this list? The fact that they made him come out as Magneto AGAIN on Smackdown. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TOu_uzu84I One has to hope that, a year removed from this debacle, Sandow can find more success in his current feud with the Miz. He can't do worse.
