9 Worst WCW Pay-Per-Views Of All Time

2. Souled Out 2000

...Or the one with no logic whatsoever.

A series of injuries created the slapdash reconfiguring of the entire card, with Bret Hart out with a concussion thanks to Goldberg and Jeff Jarrett suffering headaches after being on the receiving end of a Chris Benoit diving headbutt.

So Benoit replaced Hart in the finale, and Billy Kidman was brought in to wrestle a series of three matches that was supposed to end with Benoit vs. Jarrett for the United States Title.

But with Jarrett out and the belt now off the table, Kidman was fighting for...pride? Giggles? The right to prove he was better than Perry Saturn and Dean Malenko but worse than The Wall?

The whole show was about as illogical as you could imagine got off to a rough start when Malenko forgot the rules of his match and legit disqualified himself just a couple minutes in. D'oh.

It didn't get much better from there, either.

The undercard was stuffed to the brim with slop, including a Handicap Match with Vampiro going against David Flair and Crowbar, WCW Cruiserweight Championship match between Madusa and Oklahoma (Ed Ferrara doing his most offensive Jim Ross impression), a Booker T vs. Stevie Ray snoozefest, and Tank Abbott vs. Jerry Flynn match that didn't even crack the two-minute mark.

The only decent thing this PPV managed was putting the WCW Championship on Chris Benoit. Unfortunately, even that wasn't enough to make up for the how terrible WCW looked, and Benoit moved on to WWE the very next day.
