WWE: 10 Most Undeserving WrestleMania Wrestlers Of The Last Decade

8. WrestleMania 28 €“ Most Of Teams Teddy & Johnny

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OjUiAxXNGc This was the equivalent of a Battle Royal, in that it crammed a lot of people into one match, thereby affording them all a WrestleMania moment (and accompanying pay bonus). But the painful, boring storyline leading up to this match was indicative of how awful a "payoff" it would be at the big event. Between the flag bearers (er, "flag buriers", according to Brie Bella's introduction), guest announcers, and valets, you almost don't notice the bevy of barely-talented dudes in the ring. Poor Zack Ryder has even gotten himself a custom-made RyderMania jacket, I suppose all the better to commemorate this "achievement". Aside from his joke-worthy travel mug, David Otunga never clicked as a wrestler, and looks as shoe-horned into this situation as The Great Khali. Factor in the equally yawn-worthy Miz and Drew McIntyre, and the painfully-cheesy Santino, and you have a bloated mess. They've thrown in Booker T as well, who knows all too well about lame WrestleMania gigs! R-Truth, Kofi, Mark Henry and Swagger are all there too, probably happy enough to at least be at Mania, but still working below their potential. The greatest tragedy is that Dolph Ziggler was sucked into this, when he could have been stealing the show elsewhere. This match was worthy of a Smackdown main event at best.
