10 Wrestling Matches That Pissed You Off Straight Away

The more time that passes from this utter disaster, the more reviewing gets a little kinder to Seth Rollins.

That's not to say responsibility for such a nightmare wasn't always placed on WWE's shoulders, but the former Universal Champion gave up a lot to try and make this total nonsense matter even a little.

He hit The Fiend with his Stomp multiple times. He flatted The Fiend with a Pedigree. He battered The Fiend within an inch of his Fiend life with a chair and a toolbox and a hammer. And for what? For confirming that The Fiend had powers that didn't adhere to any set of rules so everything that came before it was utterly pointless?

Shockingly over-thought because due to the weird insistence on rushing Bray Wyatt's new character into the main event, the match served as thin ice breaking beneath his feet. In to the freezing cold abyss he fell, along with the hopes and dreams of a fanbase that would yet again be force to have their dedication tested beyond all reasonable expectations.
