10 Wrestling Botch Machines Other Than Sin Cara

3. Rob Van Dam

RVD's mix of martial arts strikes, aerial attacks, and general flippery made for quite a spectacle, but it also made him a regular on the Botchamania circuit.

Whether he's attempting a split-legged moonsault in the corner onto Tommy Dreamer (also in the corner, atop a ladder laid out on the second rope) or crotching Lance Storm on the top rope and then bungling his springboard back kick, there's no denying that RVD was as botchy as he was innovative.

Worst botch: In a ladder match against Eddie Guerrero on Raw, RVD went for the five-star frog splash from the top of the ladder. But the ladder moved, and he crashed to the mat from ten feet in the air. It was brutal.
