WWE 2004 PPVs From Worst To Best

14. The Great American Bash

The Good: Although it has a (deserved) rep as one of the worst WWE PPVs ever, there are still a couple of good matches to be found watching the 2004 Great American Bash. Rey Mysterio and Chavo Guerrero deliver a good, long Cruiserweight Title match and JBL and Eddie Guerrero have a decent bull rope match (shame about the screwjob finish, mind). The Bad: Where do you start with the nonsense that is the Concrete Crypt match? Devised as a way to write Paul Bearer out of the storylines, Undertaker battled the Dudleys in a so-so handicap match, all while Bearer was enclosed in a glass tomb with Paul Heyman threatening to fill it with concrete should 'Taker refuse to throw the match. Just awful wrestlecrap nonsense. The undercard had way too many poor, house show quality matches. I mean, who pays their hard-earned money for thrown-together fare like Hardcore Holly versus Mordecai, Kenzo Suzuki versus Billy Gunn and Luther Reigns versus Charlie Haas? Smackdown's roster really was wafer-thin in the spring of 2004. The Rest: The event featured WWE diva Sable's last PPV appearance, a predictably rotten match with long-time rival Torrie Wilson.
