10 WWE Stars Who Had WrestleManias They Would Rather Forget

8. Booker T & Sharmell - WrestleMania 22

After the disappointment of his jobbing at WrestleMania XIX to Triple H, Booker probably thought that his WrestleMania woes were over. Then the next year at WrestleMania XX he was thrown into a middling four team World Tag Team Championship match (which he and RVD won). Still, at least he was on the WrestleMania XX card. The following year the Smackdown booking squad apparently had nothing for the underrated Booker and he was put in the pre-show battle royal (which he also won). Why wasn't Booker on the WrestleMania 21 card when Akebono and Christy Hemme were? Booker must have thought his chances of getting a good 'Mania match were significantly better when 'Mania 22 rolled around. After all, he had been having stellar matches on the blue brand with the likes of Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero and Christian for much of the year. He must have been gutted when he heard that he and his wife Sharmell would be wrestling the clueless Boogeyman on the big night. It wasn't much of a match: Boogey could only 'wrestle' for about three minutes, max. Sharmell, who was priceless as Booker's manager, was treated to a wormy kiss. This was total house show material and Booker and Sharmell deserved better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtN1lKpsnu4
