WrestleMania is the flagship pay-per-view for WWE. It is like the Superbowl for sports entertainment. WWE usually goes out of its way to put the best show possible at WrestleMania and that includes compelling feuds and storylines.
WrestleMania 35 is on the horizon and it is promising to be one of the best in the history of the company. Majority of the storylines and feuds are looking impressive, and coupled with star power involved, this WrestleMania can possibly be the Grandest Of Them All.
But for all the great WrestleMania moments WWE has provided, they have also given the fans some of the most cringe-worthy and hideous moments at WrestleMania.
Here is a look at 5 of the worst WrestleMania feuds in recent history:
#5 Bogeyman vs Booker T and Sharmell (WrestleMania 22)
The background of the feud is that The Boogeyman was too scary for Booker T. Booker, the five-time champion and WCW legend, was too spooked by the worm eating Boogeyman. The match itself was pretty short due to an injury suffered by the creepy superstar at a house show prior to WrestleMania. The match involved The Boogeyman kissing Sharmell and putting worms into her mouth. Boogeyman eventually went on to win the match.
What also did not help matters was the fact that the match was sandwiched between two matches with great storylines in Edge vs Mick Foley and Mickie James vs Trish Stratus.
#4 Ryback vs Mark Henry (WrestleMania 29)
Ryback was originally scheduled to face the Shield alongside Randy Orton and Sheamus. The Hounds of Justice had been targeting Orton, Sheamus, and Ryback for months and match was set among the six-men at WrestleMania 29.
Suddenly, Mark Henry decided to join the act and after weeks of staredowns among the two beasts, The World's Strongest Man made his move in a Smackdown episode. After the Shield laid out Ryback with a triple powerbomb, Mark Henry took advantage and destroyed "The Human Wrecking Ball" with three World's Strongest Slams.
That diverted Ryback's attention from the Shield to Henry and on an episode of Monday Night Raw, he demanded to face Mark Henry at WrestleMania. The match took place and Henry emerged victorious.
#3 Kane vs The Great Khali (WrestleMania 23)
A feud involving two giants who are not very good in the ring is always going to be an uninteresting one. No doubt Kane takes bumps to make others look good and can have decent matches but he is average at best, while Khali is almost literally a statue.
The guy cannot walk in the ring, cannot take a bump, and can only kick and punch. Not a single wrestler ever has had a good match with Khali. So, it was pretty apparent that a match between the two behemoths at The Grandest Stage Of Them All was not a good idea but WWE decided to go ahead and hence this feud finds its place in the list.
#2 Goldberg vs Brock Lesnar (WrestleMania 20)
A match that should have been a great one eventually ended up failing all expectations. At the time, Goldberg and Brock Lesnar were two of the biggest stars in the company but what unfolded at WrestleMania was horrible to watch. The match actually took place because Goldberg cost Lesnar his championship. Stone Cold was the guest referee.
As the bell rang, both the wrestlers just had a staredown contest. The crowd began to get so bored that they started chanting "Goodbye" at both the wrestlers. It was the last match for Goldberg and Brock Lesnar with WWE and they really showed no appreciation towards the fans and the business. The match was supposed to be the best but ended up being the worst.
#1 Michael Cole vs Jerry Lawler (WrestleMania 27)
The undisputed worst feud in WrestleMania history. What was WWE thinking when they booked the feud. The constant bickering between the announcers and the constant back and forth leading up to WrestleMania really did not help anyone. There was no need for this program to take place. Michael Cole even had to bring Jerry Lawler's dead mother to get some heat, because no one cared. Also, their match at Wrestlemania lasted for 14 minutes to further add to the misery.
