Let’s not forget that horrible Kane kidnapping Lita and marrying her through Stockholm syndrome angle. Apparently according to Lita herself Glenn Jacobs did not like ANY of it and actually put a lot of the more heinous ideas down immediately out of respect to her.
To be fair, Lita was forced to do the Live Sex Celebration, expressing her distaste for it to Vince enraged Vinny Mac. Hell even Edge and John Cena tried to intervene on her behalf but it ended in an ultimatum of "Everyone participates or Lita is fired." Which is why Vince McMahon shouldn't have any power whatsoever in WWE and be released from his duties as soon as possible or get humbled by is son in law. :3
The irony (or should that be hypocrisy) of WWE booking that Piggy James storyline is that when they had Michelle McCool and Layla bullying Mickie James over her weight (which in itself made no sense, since Mickie looked great!) is that at that time WWE was involved in an anti bullying campaign.
Glad they mentioned the Roberts-Lawler angle. The fact they had Lawler use real alcohol on Roberts was disgusting. You do NOT do that to someone who has struggled with an alcohol addiction.
Yeah, the idea that DDP would be interested in meddling in Taker's marriage while being married to Kimberly still boggles my mind.. in an era with more nonsenical storylines than ones that had logic behind them, that one stands out a LOT.
I thought it was quite wrong to have Calloway's then-second wife involved in such a creepy angle, but it was surprising when it was revealed to be DDP.
i seem to remember Randy Orton stating that he was really unhappy with the line about Eddie being in hell. honestly there is probably a LOT of promos or lines different superstars were made to say that they hated... like vince making Michael Cole say somebody was suffering from "anal bleeding" which you could tell bothered both him and good ole J.R.
Stone Cold vs Hall was a rush job but built better it could have been great because Hall/Razor was the original anti-hero, trouble was after WCW Hall's star power didn't match Stone Cold's but had they built up Hall as the original renegade rather than just part of NWO it could have been hot. Sadly with Hall felt beneath Austin at the time and neither were into it. Sad thing is long after both retired Austin had Hall on the podcast and absolutely loved him, he seemed to genuinely regret not getting to know him sooner, under different circumstances they could have worked together a lot
Part of the problem was Hall's personal issues were creeping up again. That's why Nash didn't have a match scheduled at that WrestleMania, in case he had to fill in for Hall.
Yea in retrospect Edge, Lita, and Matt Hardy were so forced to do the angle for ratings. Like Matt got fired for telling the truth, he was probably done with the whole thing
Oh he was Matt was literally sick about that storyline and what's worse he and Edge at the time was best friends and that really hurt him that his friend and girlfriend had an affair behind his back how Vince fired him for being honest was the dumbest thing
10: Vince's Idea 9: Vince's idea 8: Vince's idea 7: Vince's idea 6: Vince's idea 5: Vince's idea 4: Vince's idea 3: Vince's idea 2: Vince's idea 1: Vince's idea.
Have you created a billion dollar company? Has your company allowed dozens of other companies to start up and pay employees simply to critisize your company? Clarity and perspective would you out.
Chaz quitting that angle on air was scripted when they realized that the fans hated the Beaver Cleavage angle and opted to axe it live on tv to make a story where Chaz wrestles as himself.
besides being tasteless, the kurt/booker/sharmell angle was also very racist. kurt said he wanted to have bestiality sex with sharmell. why, because he's an animal, or is sharmell an animal? this of course was vince's idea thinking kurt dating black women is some kind of odd fetish.
He really did he was so upset about that line that Rey and Vince and I think HHH had to console him backstage Rey told him " hey man don't feel bad about that trust me if Eddie was here he would have wanted you to say that"
While the whole Piggy James storyline was absolutely mean-spirited, Vince and the writers must have thought the audience forgot about it when the bully/mean girl aspect resurfaced in the buildup to the RAW Women's Title Match between Alexa Bliss and Nia Jax at WrestleMania 34. Of course, it made Mickie look like a hypocrite since she was talking crap about Nia, too, after being bullied herself eight years earlier by LayCool. 🤦♂️
They had Mickie beat Laycool for the titles in that storyline, and they had Nia beat Alexa for the belt at WrestleMania, so that showed a conquering of the bullied victims. It was obvious
Honestly, since Hogan vs Austin wasn't going to happen. Savage should have returned and part of the NWO to have Austin vs Savage. The way Savage can pull off an amazing match probably would have been the other fan screaming main event of WrestleMania 18.
I don't care what anyone says, I LOVED psychopathic Kurt. After being either a goofy heel or a corny lighthearted babyface, it was an absolute enjoyment to see him booked as a ruthless, lethal villian who was as sadistic in the ring as he was outside of it.
Another thing I absolutely have to say: Nothing gave me more joy today than seeing Woken Matt Hardy slowly creeping up on the cringe "Live Sex Celebration" 🤣
I remember the Hardy, Edge, Lita love triangle storyline, it was so bad, Matt came out during one of Edge’s matches and called him by his real name, Adam
No way Rock vs Hogan was literally one of the greatest matches in Wrestlmania history in terms of how insanely the crowd reacted to it, absolute Goat level storytelling & in-ring psychology, character work that was in the match. No way some tag team match could have matched that epicness.
I suffered through substance addiction for a large chunk of my life. I'm good know and am fine talking and joking about it. And would probably be fine using it as a storyline if I was a wrestler. But you poor legit whiskey in my mouth, we are throwing hands. Don't care who you are, we have to fight. No other option
I always hated the diamon dallas page wwe angle with undertaker. He was so fun to watch in wcw and they just completely and utterly ruined any use of him in the company
Vince McMahon and his "creative" team have got some very sick and twisted minds. Can you imagine the story lines that didnt get the go ahead or that we've haven't heard about. Could you imagine if vince didn't have the WWE and the wrestlers to act out his little fantasies.
The worst one was when Stephanie was pregnant with his granddaughter and wanted to write that he was the father and not Hunter (Triple H) he actually wanted an incest relationship with his own daughter 😒
I heard about that one cos when she said no he then suggested Shane be the father. WWE has always had some crazy and outrageous story lines but Vince definitely takes things to the extreme.
Whats funnier? That somebody who created a billion dollar company and is the only live action TV show to go as long as WWE has and has internet peeps constantly whine and say how bad his ideas were or that every single promotion on earth has terribly distasteful storylines but we love to focus on Vinny mac instead haha.
Honestly, I think the angle could have actually worked out had they kept up the storyline that DDP was trying to play mind games with Undertaker, as he had alluded to in his initial WWE promo, but instead they made him look like a pervy creeper and then a joke when they buried him afterwards. All in all, it probably would have been better if they had never done the whole gimmick to begin with, but there were ways to make it work and WWE utterly dropped the ball on that one.
Re: The Ric Flair & Lacey Evans angle - I don't have a problem with May-December romances, but it would be nice if the May and December were in the same century. (I know, that was wicked bitchy...but you still laughed.)
You know what though. You all remember those storylines don't you. As much as you want to pearl clutch they left a lasting impression and that's what its all about.
As cringy as a lot of these are , the Mickey James storyline was not interesting , fun or nothing . That's part of the reason why the divas division has to be revamped , part of why it worked .

If I was Glenn, I'd have hated that story line too and would've preferred a story line that helps my career and/or another wrestler's career.
I don’t agree with Glenn’s politics, but dude is a great human to work with. Always looking out for the other guy
@tompatchak8706 you just say that because hes Republican. I bet you dont know nor is affected by a single law he put in place

The good news is, this came to pass. The bad news is, we have much better reasons now.
Yep. Vince is indeed a very crappy boss and I'm so glad he's not in power anymore.
Honorable mention: Tony Khan is clown
If I had to do what Kurt did in that storyline with Booker and Sharmell, I’d need extensive therapy afterwards
“I just want that beastiality type sex”
Like bro wtaf
Then he went on to do the TNA angle where he had to relive his wife leaving him and ending up with Jarrett
I never really thought about it, but did Vince think bestiality covered interracial sex too? There's old fashioned then there's prehistoric
Yeah I would need a lot of therapy as well if i was forced to say I want beastiality sex with someone... shit was nuts
Wonder how awkward it was when they were in The Main Event Mafia in TNA years later 🤨
Miro hated the love triangle story with him, Lana, and Bobby Lashley. He flat out refused to portray a jilted ex lover.
It was his idea
WWE not only ruined his career, but his relationship and holiday that was once better than Christmas.
It was his last run....at least he left a babyface...
@@wildwine6400It wasn't though
Iirc, Lashley also said he didn't liked it, but he was willing to do it in order to be WWE Champion
So... Job done 👍🏻

Be a star?
Right, I would like if they were to put that into the storyline and to say don’t be like these to it would’ve made more sense
It also helped younger fans that adults get bullied too and they aren't alone. Children were and still are committing suicide due to bullying
Exactly Mickie looked amazing she still does
@@remingtonbouyer darn right!!

Randy came up with that statement all on his own, it was improvised. He did a whole PSA in a press conference the very next day, he went off script.

Where is Kane, HHH, and the Katie Vick angle. No way those two do not regret that one angle.
I don’t think anyone involved has spoke out against it which I find even MORE shocking
My guess is the less they talk about it the more people won't remember

Look at Lacey and look at Charlotte. Enough said.
The fact Andrade was supposed to come back cheating on Charlotte, no wonder he went to AEW.
You know a storyline like that one is bad when it makes Ric Flair of all people very uncomfortable
@@stephano1019 agreed
Jason Jordan be like....a Missionary....
Can't believe that the Beaver Cleavage atrocity isn't on here. Chaz literally quit the angle LIVE ON AIR.

kurt said he wanted to have bestiality sex with sharmell. why, because he's an animal, or is sharmell an animal?
this of course was vince's idea thinking kurt dating black women is some kind of odd fetish.
Trying to understand is like understand Anime logic...just dont...
He used the wrong word. He meant bestial
These are great storylines you and this channel are tripping
Seriously Angle hated his retirement match more than banging on Sharmell
Considering how notoriously racist Vince is, I'd wager that he was calling Sharmell an animal.
I thought for sure we'd see the Moppy storyline here for Perry Saturn. Although it was a punishment, I'm sure he still hated doing it.
Every time I watch videos like these, I wonder what's wrong with me that I have enjoyed watching WWE faithfully for the better part of 25 years 😂😂
Also Randy Ortons feud with Rey Mysterio right after Eddie passed away. He hated having to say the Eddie’s in hell bit.
He really did he was so upset about that line that Rey and Vince and I think HHH had to console him backstage Rey told him " hey man don't feel bad about that trust me if Eddie was here he would have wanted you to say that"

@@CyrusRKO that's why they had Nia won at WM 34
Imagine having a feud between Jon Moxley and Seth Rollins and somehow managing to make it suck.
Their feud when the Shield first broke up was pretty good but their 2018 was horrible
The common denominator in all these awful storylines is Vince McMahon.
The King Corbin thing is literally when I stopped watching WWE back then. Still haven't gone back, though I have heard it's improved.
Most people would’ve been honored to have a WM match with Scott Hall
Hmmm I remember them saying Austin didn't want to work with Hogan since he didn't think Hogan would play ball for business
Aye, it didn’t work for him…. Brother
That’s what I remember hearing too. Something like, he was OK working with Hall, but didn’t want to deal with Hogan’s locker room politics
Neither wanted to lose at Mania. That's why they did Austin vs The Rock instead. Austin also said that his style was too much different from Hulk's
@@brolysupersaiyan1634 they did rock v. Hogan and Hogan lost......Austin blamed people like Hogan for holding him back in WCW.....
He did but he was still upset that he wasn't the Maineville with hall
Surprised the Eddie vs Mysterio over Dominic custody feud wasn't on here which suggests neither was appalled by it.
I feel like Rey has said they realized how ridiculous it was but they loved working with each other so much that they rolled with it.
Want a storyline Rey hated? His feud with Samoa Joe.
I know Dominic has gone on record stating that it was one of the best moments of his life.
Massive Love Adam Top Shelf Stuff!!🙌💀
Honestly, since Hogan vs Austin wasn't going to happen. Savage should have returned and part of the NWO to have Austin vs Savage.

It took Roman that long to realize his face character wasn’t working 💀💀
"Piggy James" had nothing to do with Mickie's weight and everything to do with her affair with Cena, as she was "piggying around".
I remember the Hardy, Edge, Lita love triangle storyline, it was so bad, Matt came out during one of Edge’s matches and called him by his real name, Adam
I know I remember that like it was yesterday I was like " why he calling him by his first name
Gotta love your storylines.
Scott hall was Fd up but he could still go in the Ring. Nobody can tell me any different. I watched his career. He had demons not stinker matches
Entire top 10.

Ah, heel Pacitti. Always great :)
Vince Russo clearly has or had issues with women, based on how he wrote for them.
Steve vs Hall was hilariously great even if he hated the story
HHH vs Booker T feud, with HHH showing his irl self, as a racist
Reigns kinda looked like Jesus if He was covered in dog food 🐶
How can Katie Vick not be on this list
Jake wasn’t sober at the time though, he was missing booking meetings and showing up late to shows
Not really relevant though...
@@isaacbear7115 the author makes it seems like he was sober and they were bringing up
Demons he had exercised which he hadn’t.

Alcoholism isn’t a disease it’s an addiction
Wait.....Terri Runnels let her elementary aged daughter watch Attitude Era wrestling??
These are all the best storylines
DDP deserved better.
On a side note, Taker clearly was still going for the Sara type when he found McCool
how telling is the kurt angle one about vince knowing what we now know?
Do you think Austin vs Nash would’ve been a better match for X-8?
Still pisses me off how damn dirty WWE did to Diamond Dallas Page, all because Taker took him suggesting storylines as "disrespectful".
