7. The Young Bucks vs. World's Cutest Tag Team - Guerrilla Warfare Match (Pro Wrestling Guerrilla)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbhsW7kea8o There's likely a segment of the pro wrestling fan community for whom women fighting men in violent matches will never be okay. For that segment of the population, the idea that Pro Wrestling Guerrilla promoted a hardcore tag-team match for the PWG Tag Team Champiosnhips between The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) and the World's Cutest Tag Team (Joey Ryan and Candice LeRae) at their 11th Anniversary show in July 2014 would be deplorable. Only to make the angst of these types of fans greater (as opposed to the video above), here's a run-down of the match's final moments, as Candice Lerae, wearing the "crimson mask," prevails for her team: "This match was a microcosm of Candices story. She got absolutely destroyed for the whole match, including when she took a superkick from Matt Jackson, who was wearing a special shoe that was covered in thumb tacks. However, Candice pulled out the win, pinning Matt after a Ballsplex, after dropping some thumb tacks down his pants." This one must be seen to be believed.
