10 Wrestling Matches Too Horrible For WWE To Air

8. Chelsea Green Vs. Mickie James

Vince McMahon Lash Legend Sarray

When: Unknown (Raw).

What Happened: This is a curious one.

Chelsea Green told Fightful that she taped a match with Mickie James before an unknown episode of Raw. The "dark match" was going to be used on the edited "as live" broadcast, but it didn't make the final cut and Chelsea still isn't quite sure why. Nobody gave her a solid reason.

She reckons that Vinnie Mac must've thought the match sucked, or something like that. This unseen scuffle was supposed to be the launching point for Green's run as an obsessive Mickie super-fan; it was a sequel to James' own creepy antics with Trish Stratus from years before.

WWE abolished that booking and decided not to flesh out the story. Chelsea has a hunch that someone backstage (likely McMahon) saw the bout with Mickie and didn't like it. That'd explain why the boss stopped the thing from airing on TV hours later/at all.
