10 Worst WWE Survivor Series Matches Ever

7. The Royal Family Vs Clowns R Us (1994)

The degradation of the Doink character from perfection to preposterous had been completed one year earlier (more on that later), but the ha-ha-hilarious end to his pitiful angle with Jerry Lawler was a pie in the face to any audience member still searching for something credible in the increasingly cartoonish WWE.

Lawler, in his defence, was at his devilish worst in the early going. Ahead of pinning Doink to render Clowns R Us well beaten (as per WWE's rigid philosophy that little people are children, not just little people), he made the best of an exhausting ten minutes afforded to comedy spots, including subverting Doink and Dink's chicken fight challenge by mounting Queasy's shoulders.

Yes, Queasy. The King's comrades were all given demeaning monikers to highlight the hideousness of Lawler himself, but it's hard not to imagine Vince McMahon himself guffawing backstage that he'd manage to sell a match featuring teams made up of Dink, Wink, Pink, Sleazy, Queasy and Cheesy.

He hadn't really sold it of course. The show did a rotten buyrate and this disaster was its nadir, but in daring to even consider it worthy of valuable airtime, he exhibited just how far off the pulse a finger that once had the magic touch really was.
