10 Wrestlers Who Got Buried For Someone Else Screwing Up

6. James Dick

In 2005, buffed-up tag team going by the name ‘The Dicks’ made their debut on SmackDown. The team was made up of Chad and James Dick, who ripped off Chippendales dancers where they would use an excessive amount of body oil to blind their opponents when the ref’s back was turned.

They picked up a few wins over Heidenreich and Road Warrior Animal and ambushed The Mexicools, but problems started to arise backstage. Reports made the rounds of top-level talent like JBL, Undertaker and Chris Benoit ribbing Chad, and Chad not reacting particularly well to it, getting excessively frustrated and upset over it. Bruce Prichard has said on his podcast the key to getting ribbed for any wrestler is not selling it but Chad sold it huge much to his detriment.

James Dick just by association got a lot of the heat from Chad’s outbursts. James wasn’t particularly happy with this and confronted Chad, with the two of them getting in a backstage fight where Chad’s lip got busted and James required stitches in his hand. After this occurred WWE lost any shred of remaining faith they had in the two and they were released from their contracts, not before doing the honours for Boogeyman in a handicap match on the way out.
