6. Ucey Hot

"We're gonna put some heat on you guys tonight."

"Great. We need to do something to get a reaction out there."

"Reaction?"

"Yeah...? You said "heat"."

"No, we are putting a topical pain reliever into your trunks."

The Usos, tag team specialists and, it would seem, entrepreneurial medics, laced the trunks of Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson with 'Ucey Hot' earlier this year. It was like 'Icy Hot', only more on-brand, you see. When they disclosed the prank on RAW, and this isn't snark, go to 00:59, literally one voice could be heard laughing in a loud tone of you-absolute-d*ckheads incredulity. Wilder and Dawson sold this with such gung-ho professionalism that they undermined the burial by essentially retrieving the shovel from Vince McMahon's hand and thwacking him over the head with it.

This was another segment designed to spite the Revival for making clear their intentions to leave, which strengthened their resolve to leave, and WWE then didn't allow them to leave.

An unwinnable game scripted for the sole amusement of a power-mad old man, this was the least funny adaptation ever of Joseph Heller's Catch-22.
