Every Wrestling DEATH Ranked By Stupidity
3. Dragon Dragon Is Beheaded (Chikara)
This almost took the top spot. Almost.
Chikara was never known for being a serious take on the wrestling medium. Outrageously over the top characters, laughs aplenty and some spliced in spotfests were the general rule of thumb, and it worked for Mike Quackenbush's promotion before an unsavoury end. They managed to carve out a cool niche for themselves with wrestling ice cream cones and dress-up dinosaurs having their heads cut off by a 'Wild Viking Warrior'.
No, Erik and Ivar from WWE didn't take a time machine back to 2013 and introduce the world to their Viking Experience early. Oleg was a menacing brute with a comedic edge (a must in Chikara), and it was he who decided to decapitate the casually named Dragon Dragon. Not Super Dragon, not American Dragon, but Dragon...Dragon.
There were children present, Oleg. Look at the screenshot above to see an innocent little girl sitting atop her father's knee in a pink dress. She's looking on to see some cartoon dino get his head cut off by a rampaging Viking who just refuses to stop. If Daniel Bryan's meteoric rise hadn't been happening around the same time, then all anyone in wrestling would've been talking about was Dragon Dragon getting his head head chop chopped off off.
Fantastically stupid.
Check out how seriously the referee was taking things too. He's checking to make sure there's nothing illegal going on with that beheading. You don't want to accidentally apply a choke whilst doing it, after all. What a crap reason to get DQ'd that'd be.
