10 Wrestling Matches You Should NEVER EVER Watch

3. Oz Vs. Tim Parker - WCW SuperBrawl

The entrance is must-see WrestleCrap theatre.

Oz is joined on his way to the ring by the cast of the Wizard of Oz, and it's very funny, because he's a wrestler dressed up in an awful green outfit with white contact lenses.

"I will show the world who Oz really is," intoned Kevin Nash, and gauging by his hilariously inappropriate Jimmy Hart version music, he was Freddie Mercury starring in Miami Vice. But the match, f*ck. It sends the schadenfreude directly back to Kansas. It's a not unimpressive showcase of Nash's strength, but it defeats the object so completely that it actually becomes painful.

This is Kevin Nash.

He is seven-feet tall, or could be marketed as that, he was handsome, he exuded cool, and WCW lumbered him with the silliest gimmick of all time. The match lasts a matter of seconds, and is still unwatchable because Nash's facials are crushingly bad. He looks pilled to the gills, and it's supposed to be menacing.

The effect is that of finding out your dad isn't strong, your older brother isn't cool, any wrestler can be buried.
