20 Dumbest Gimmick Matches In WCW History

I've written about this match before in the context of being one of Hulk Hogan's most ridiculously contrived losses, but let's dwell on this just a bit more. First, yo, it's a barbed wire steel cage match, and bleeding all over the place is kind of the point. The buyrate isn't gonna skyrocket because they want to see knife-edge chops near a chain link fence.

Second, Ric Flair, a man who blades while brushing his teeth, should under no circumstances agree to a match where bleeding causes a loss. If you're guessing that Ric started bleeding almost immediately but the match continued on for question mark reasons, step up and claim your prize.

Defining Moment: Flair winning this first blood match via pinfall while drenched in his own blood.
