5 Worst Wrestling Matches Of 2015

4. Intercontinental Championship Elimination Chamber Match

This is the worst Elimination Chamber match of all time, because it exposed the ‘pre-planned’ nature of the match in a bad way. Midway through the match, Dolph Ziggler threw Wade Barrett into Mark Henry’s pod, which caused the Plexiglas door to fall off.

Mark Henry, who was not scheduled to leave his pod yet, left anyway (because he’d be a complete fool if he didn’t), and then utter nonsense ensued. The match turned into a car crash thereafter (and not in a good way), as wrestlers hit each other with improvised moves.

At one point Dolph tried to call moves on the fly by shouting loudly to the other wrestlers (Michael Cole tried to cover this by saying he tried to ‘direct traffic’) but it didn’t do much to salvage this nonsense.

Of course, the fans would’ve cared about this match if there was any sort of build-up for it. The IC title picture in 2015 was awful, partly because the title was treated like a complete joke thanks to R-Truth’s ‘funny’ antics and King Barrett being booked like a complete loser.

While the action was decent by regular WWE standards, it was bad by Elimination Chamber match standards, which is why it gets a spot on this list. Had WWE actually booked the IC title picture in a better way, this match wouldn’t be listed here today.
