10 WWE Title Matches Nobody Asked For

6. Triple H Vs. The Great Khali (SummerSlam 2008)

Triple H isn't getting out of the woods just yet, because he's had more than one unwanted WWE Title match during his career. We'll give his feud with Roman Reigns some credit, because at least it was more progressive than a mind-numbing showdown with The Great Khali at SummerSlam 2008. Exactly who asked for this one?

Almost a full month on from producing an under-rated gem against Edge at The Great American Bash, Triple H had to work around Khali's limitations on the biggest pay-per-view of the summer. This was complete throwaway when the WWE Title match at SummerSlam needed to be everything but.

Khali's aura had evaporated by the summer of '08. The freak show quality of his matches was old hat, but that didn't stop WWE from trying to squeeze another marquee match out of the big Indian. What resulted was a tame 10-minute affair that the card wouldn't have missed. Even writing that about a WWE Title match feels rotten, but it's true.
