5 of the funniest WWE botches of all time 

Some superstars botches are actually hilarious!

Botches are unavoidable in the wrestling ring sometimes because whenever there's a show presented in front of a live audience there is always room for error. Over the past few days, there has been a lot of talk of Brie Bella and her "botch" against Liv Morgan on Monday Night Raw, which has led to Morgan being diagnosed with a concussion.

Whilst some botches over the years have resulted in injury and some of the worst have ended careers, there are some that are just hilarious to watch back because there were no lasting factors to any of the stars involved.

Even though botches are frowned upon by WWE officials, there are some that even the stars involved have to look back and laugh about and here are just a few...


#5 John Cena and Batista

This one was one of the greatest!
This one was one of the greatest!

John Cena and Batista are both former World Champions and have made quite the impact in the acting world as well as the wrestling world, but one day that both men will want to forget came back at The Royal Rumble in 2005.

Cena and Batista were the two final men and it was obvious that Batista was supposed to be the winner, but when it came to the final spot in the match, Batista's powerbomb over the top rope took him over the ropes and in a shocking turn of fate, both men landed on the outside at the exact same time.

Vince McMahon was then called out since two men can't be crowned the winner (even though they once were) and on his way into the ring, he tore both of his quads which meant that he was unable to stand up. Vince then sat on the floor in the ring and restarted the end of the match so that Batista could pick up the win, on a night where pretty much everything went wrong for The Chairman of WWE.

#4 Randy Orton forgets his lines

Promos are not easy things to remember, especially when WWE stars have a match and a promo on a single episode of Raw or SmackDown. Whilst Roman Reigns has been pulled up a number of times for forgetting his lines on WWE TV, there are a number of veterans who have managed it in the past as well.

Randy Orton is one of the best-known wrestlers in the world, but a few short years ago Orton had to rely on Sheamus to feed him the lines for his promo after he made his way to the ring on Monday Night Raw and completely forgot why he was there.

What's funny about this botch is the fact that wrestlers usually freeze until they remember their lines, but instead Orton walks over and clearly asks Sheamus for his line and The Irish star actually gives it to him.

#3 Entrances are not the easiest

An entrance is one of the most important things for a WWE superstar because it's the first time the WWE Universe will see them and get a feel for their character. Entrances can be the simplest thing in the world, but many wrestlers have made it difficult for themselves by adding factors that can go wrong.

Over the years there have been some hilarious entrances that have gone wrong in some of the most unique ways. From Paul London to Seth Rollins, here are some of the best.

#2 Randy Orton falls through the announce table

Randy Orton has already featured on this list once because of his promo ability, but here he is again because the announce table became his biggest threat in a match with Kane.

Orton was setting up to jump from the announce table when he kicked Kane out of the way and then his foot slipped into a hole in the table and the entire table flipped. Orton obviously managed to pick himself straight back up after the botch and continued the match whilst holding his leg, but it was still a hilarious botch since Orton decided to brag about the recovery after as well.

#1 Titus Worldslide

It wasn't a great night in Saudi Arabia for Titus O'Neil

The Greatest Royal Rumble was WWE's first pay-per-view live from Saudi Arabia back in April and even though it was a show that made history in the middle east, one moment from the whole show has become the most memorable.

Entrance botches happen all the time, but when Titus O'Neil made his way to the ring as an entrant in the 50-man Rumble match, he managed to trip over his own feet and then slide underneath the ring. The commentators were laughing so much at the spot that WWE decided to replay it, which is something that isn't usually done with botches and then went on to even commission a shirt for the leader of Titus Worldwide to commemorate one of the worst botches in WWE history.
