10 Worst WWE PPV Gimmick Matches
4. Al Snow Vs. Big Boss Man: Kennel From Hell (9/26/99)
For enduring a hanging, cooking a man's pet dog, and stealing the casket of another man's dead father at the funeral, all in the same calendar year, I feel like Big Boss Man should've been given some kind of lifetime achievement award.
That is a resume, folks.
The whole "cooking a man's pet dog" gag came when Boss Man kidnapped Snow's chihuahua Pepper, and then went all Fatal Attraction by cooking the dog and feeding it to Snow. To blow off this insidious feud, Snow avenged his dead pooch by "wrestling" Boss Man inside the Kennel From Hell: a blue-barred cage surrounded by Hell in a Cell (overkill alert) while disinterested, bladder-evacuating dogs patrolled the ringside area.
Snow won by escaping both structures, making him more of a winner than anyone that watched this mess. Boss Man is to Cell matches what Uwe Boll is to film reels. For a laugh, track down Mick Foley's "Hard Knocks and Cheap Pops" DVD, which includes this match, set to sarcastic, over-the-top commentary from Foley and Kevin Kelly.
