7 Worst Wrestling Moments Of The Week (April 9)

1. Worms And Maggots In My Wrestling

WWE WrestleMania 33 Bray Wyatt Randy Orton Maggots

This has to have been the dumbest WrestleMania match ever, right? What could be dumber?

Undertaker and Giant Gonzalez at least tried to make something work. The Miller Lite catfight girls could at least conceivably pillow fight on a bed in reality. And while Jerry Lawler vs. Michael Cole was much worse rom an athletic standpoing, at least they didn't have maggots and worms projected onto the mat like Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton did.

As a great wrestler once said, "ENOUGH is ENOUGH and it's time for a change!" Wyatt and Orton have put on 2017's worst storyline, and yet it keeps on going. Both characters have been brought down because of it, as have Rowan and Harper. It's like the love square angle with Rusev/Lana/Summer Rae/Dolph Ziggler in that no one is coming out of this thing better off.

Wyatt keeps on talking a big game, but of course, he never backs it up. He talks munching on some souls, but all he was capable of at 'Mania was renting out a projector and buying some cheap stock footage of some worms.

Is that supposed to be scary or something? I mean, was the Randy Orton character really supposed to think that effect was "mind games" and the worms were somehow magically brought out of Wyatt's mind? Or did his character assume WWE was trying way too hard?

Now that Taker is likely done with the company, Vince may be feeling nostalgic for his old supernatural ways, but it's just not working with this set of characters. But hey, at least Randy winning the Royal Rumble finally paid off, right?

Right?

Time to kick out.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
