8 Worst Ever WWE Survivor Series Eliminations

1. The Headshrinkers - 1993

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5kvn3_four-doinks-vs-bam-bam-bigelow-head_sport The Headshrinkers arrived in WWE in 1992 and were immediately treated as very real threats to the company's tag team champions. They compiled several victories against babyface tandems and were clearly Vince McMahon's attempt to recreate the Wild Samoans team that had been so very good for both he and his father decades earlier. Fatu and Samu were good enough but suffered from poor booking, the introduction of the Steiner Brothers and the Quebecers and losses to the former. Thus, it would take them nearly two years to accomplish their goal of sporting tag team gold. Still, they at least remained relevant as the 1993 Survivor Series approached. That relevancy, along with their credibility, would be called into question as they took to the ring, teaming with Bam Bam Bigelow and Bastion Booger to battle the mysterious four Doinks. The match ranks as one of the worst matches in the two decade-plus history of the Survivor Series pay-per-view and one of the most blatant examples of sports-entertainment done at its absolute worst. The Bushwhackers and Men on a Mission donned the Doink face paint and systematically picked off each member of the opposing team, beginning with the Headshrinkers' Samu, who bit into a balloon and was stunned enough by the water inside that he was rolled up and eliminated from the bout. Fatu followed shortly thereafter and the future Rikishi's departure from the contest was the worst of all, EVER, as he slipped on a banana peel and was pinned. It was an absolutely absurd, ridiculous and idiotic use of two guys intended to be very real, very serious savage beasts. So awful was their use that night that, by the time the following year's event rolled around, they were babyfaces, their heel heat killed because of stupidity on the part of those booking the shows.
