20 Dumbest Gimmick Matches In WCW History
10. Judy Bagwell on a Pole Match
We continue our slow march into madness with the time WCW hung a human lady from a pole. Granted, it's not like she was swaying on the gallows or something, but to win this match you had to retrieve somebody's mom from a platform above the ring.
That somebody was Buff Bagwell, and his mother, former WCW tag champion Judy Bagwell, was being targeted by Kanyon, who was in the midst of a weird DDP cosplaying gimmick. If Buff wasn't able to yank his aging mother off of a pole, she would be forced to suffer the ultimate indignity: serving as Kanyon's valet. That might not sound so bad for Judy, but Buff definitely did us a solid by keeping his mom out of any skimpy Kimberly Page-style costumes.
Defining Moment: Chris Kanyon in a hard hat driving a forklift down the entrance ramp to hoist Mrs. Bagwell.
