So here we are. Rey Mysterio and Konnan of the Filthy Animals, going up against Disco Inferno and Alex Wright, better known as the Boogie Knights. This ladder match opened up Monday Nitro in October 2000, and the writing was more than on the wall for the company at this point. WCW had become a joke, and the joke had long stopped being funny.

Rey was unmasked at this point, but even that isn't the dumbest thing about this match. No, the two teams were risking life and limb to climb a ladder and retrieve a ceramic duck. Yeah, a duck. The match itself is kinda fun, even if the announcers aren't taking it seriously in the slightest, but a match involving Rey Mysterio and ladders can't ever be truly bad.

In case you are wondering, Konnan retrieved the duck to pick up the victory.
