10 Wrestlers Who Prepared For Matches In The Worst Possible Way
2. Christian Goes To The Wrong Town And Drives For Four Hours To Make The Right One
Around the time Christian and Randy Orton were feuding over the World Heavyweight Championship both on-screen and on the house show circuit in 2011, stars would usually be given a hard copy of a calendar with all of the dates they were required for on it. So, upon checking over this all-important document, Christian found that his next WWE show would be going down in Springfield, Missouri.
Ever the professional, the former World Champion opted to get to the hotel early, fitting a decent workout and meal in before he was needed at the arena. However, when Christian finally made it to the building, a quick phone call to a WWE official soon made it clear that he was in the completely wrong town!
The WWE circus was actually in Cape Girardeau that night, a change that had been made two weeks earlier, unbeknownst to Christian. Despite driving for four hours and doing everything in his power to make the town, 'Captain Charisma' would devastatingly turn up at the show just as his replacement made their way down the ramp, and a heartbreaking return trip to Springfield was all he had to show for his valiant efforts in the end.
