#2 Mike Adamle

*cue Botchamania intro*

Mike Adamle’s WWE career was in jeopardy from the moment he first appeared on Raw. He botched his very first promo, calling Jeff Hardy ‘Jeff Harvey’ by mistake. That set the tone for the rest of his tenure, which included him being Raw General Manager.

In July 2008, Shane McMahon appointed Adamle to this new position, but it was incredibly underwhelming. They tried to make his decisions seem like big deals, mainly through his promotion of special matches dubbed ‘Adamle Originals’. However, his weak promos and tendency to botch his lines rendered his time on the program irrelevant.

He was ultimately released from WWE in November of that year. Since then, the only time he has been referenced was when Stephanie McMahon (before going full heel), acting as an interim authority figure, made a mistake and laughed at herself by saying, ‘I’m sorry, I pulled an Adamle’. Well played, Steph.
