This was the worst excuse for a match booked anywhere in 2005. Teddy Long was a referee and on-screen authority figure for many years, while Bischoff spent most of his time as a creative figure and general manager. Neither of them had any business having a five-second match, much less a five-minute match.

Once they were both in the ring, they didn’t do very much. Teddy Long mocked Bischoff’s martial arts background by doing some wacky poses, while Bischoff choked Teddy with his black belt. There was nothing even remotely interesting in this contest until the ending when The Boogeyman appeared.

Boogeyman entered the ring as the referees were distracted by his entrance, and slammed Bischoff down so that Long could get the pinfall. It felt more like an angle than a match, yet was promoted heavily in the lead-up to Survivor Series. Needless to say, this was an enormous waste of time.
