10 Worst WWE Pay-Per-Views Ever

7. In Your House 4

Worst WWE Pay-Per-Views

Vince McMahon undoubtedly had nights he was only too happy to forget whilst staring bankruptcy in the face during the near-total mid-1990s collapse of his empire, but his staffers have always spoken of him rarely selling sheer frustration in front of them, let alone an entire arena audience.

In Your House 4 was his tipping point.

After the show went off the air with a wretched Diesel/British Bulldog main event, the Chairman allegedly hurled his headset to the ground and mouthed 'HORRIBLE' before storming to the back. His punters probably felt as aggrieved and still had three dark matches to suffer through. A Mabel/Yokozuna match was an insult to the paying customers, whilst Goldust/Marty Jannetty, Triple H/Fatu and Dean Douglas' instant Intercontinental Title loss to Shawn Michaels replacement Razor Ramon were all utterly dire and completely devoid of heat.

Diamond In The Rough: There's something broadly enjoyable about The 1-2-3 Kid and Razor Ramon's loss to The Smoking Gunns thanks to the electric tension building between the real life besties. Billy and Bart were soon to reach their expiration point as babyfaces, but they were one of the few acts outside of The Clique to remain over during a particularly dour time for the midcard.
