Whats the Decision WWE has made that Pissed you off the most?

[pepentorresHHH]

With WWE now making Ziggler a former 2 time world heavyweight champion and reading some of the responses out there, people seem pretty mad at this booking decision....

So my question is.... When did the WWE made u the maddest... The most furious? The one time where you had no idea what they were thinking

For me it has to be either this or Christian losing the title 2 days after winning the belt for the first time....

Tell when did the WWE made you the most furious?!

That match made Dolph Ziggler a star imo, the only thing about it I didn't like is not letting him go over. But if the moment made him a star like I think it did, Ziggler chasing the belt and getting his revenge on Del Rio will be a very good program. To answer your question though, I maddest I can remember being in recent memory was when they had Nash come in and cost CM Punk his first WWE title reign, in what was a completely unnecessary and somewhat pointless title reign for Del Rio, only to give it back to Cena yet again, only to give it back to Del Rio a second time, and then back to Punk. I think that effectively extinguished a good bit of Punk's huge momentum he had built up since before MITB 2011.

-Simply not turning Cena heel at the last WM seeing half of the crowd boo's him
-The oldest rule in wrestling is when a heel is being cheered overwhelmingly or a face being booed overwhelmingly that talent must turn in the opposing direction
-Cena can still do the PR stuff seeing hes the best at that
-If WWE can't balance regular business from entertainment business they might as well sell and get out of the wrestling oh I mean Sports Entertainment business

For me the decision that infuriated me the most was that 18 second match between Sheamus and Bryan at Mania 28

Unnecessary product placement within their programming, I'm sorry people but RAW is a three hour show, there's no excuse to not have anything but solid content and a focus on what made WWE great in prior eras. I talk to fellow fans all the time that say I have to get with the times in regard to WWE's stance on trying to bludgeon us with their sponsorships and products. I say bull to the fucking shit on that one, I mean Teddy Long and Hardee's cheeseburgers? Jerry Lawler getting a Sonic soft drink rollerskated out to him? Hornswoggle playing with WWE action figures by Mattel backstage at RAW?

Seriously, that's what commercial time is created for. This is what I find fault with in today's WWE product. Yes, I admit that back in the days of programs like WWF Prime Time Wrestling, you'd see Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby Heenan at their broadcast desk with the WWF LJN Wrestling Superstars action figures adorning the scenery. Also, on WWF Superstars, you'd see the "WWF Special Report" with the current issue of the WWF Magazine flashed on the screen. So yes, there is definitely that promotion of WWF product lines at that time, and of course there was always the "promotional consideration paid for by the following" but that was expected and that's how advertisements are supposed to run.

But there is no way that anyone with a lick of sense could agree that what WWE does these days when it comes to product placement is welcomed or a good thing. It isn't. To me, those are decisions that have pissed me off the most with WWE. It's alienated me from being a fan of a product that as a kid I was very attached to.

I can't understand how three punks all of a sudden are invincible. Ambrose looks like a piece of crap and the other two are mildly impressive but to make those three invincible is sickening. I stopped watching WWE all together...and reading how the ratings are nose diving I am not alone.

 

[Da Solo]

Booker T losing to HHH at WM 19 will forever be the day that I almost lost my shit, and I never get that heated over wrestling. Not only did that make absolutely no sense whatsoever, but it buried Booker T out of a world title reign for the next 5 or so years, made Evolution hog even more of the world title spotlight, made WWE look racist as hell considering the buildup route they took (with HHH all but calling Booker racial epithets) and led to a Kevin Nash feud with his buddy Trips that no one wanted or cared about. Safe to say that I was fairly pissed off.

This. So much this. The Booker T match was by far the low-point of HHH's reign of doom. To me, it was even worse than Katie Vick. That was just stupid and gross, but the shit resolution to the Booker T feud made everyone look worse.

Accidentally or intentionally, this was a stroke of genius on behalf of WWE.

Look at the reaction that having Bryan lose in this manner generated. People were furious, showing Vince that they cared about goatface, and resulted in him being one of the most over guys in the company, and in one of the hottest feuds of 2012 (with Punk and AJ).

Vince may have wanted to test the waters on Bryan, and see if what reaction they got if Bryan lost in that manner. The response would have given him more confidence to push him.

It doesn't seem to me that losing in 18 seconds has cost him too much. He was in the Punk feud, and also was in a very popular tag-team with Kane.

 

[R.K.O]

Jeff Hardy losing to HHH in their series of matches back in 2009, I thought I would never see Jeff Hardy as WWE Champion. Later on when Punk cashed in on Jeff when he was WHC, I was a huge Jeff Hardy fan back then.

The same feud that made Sting decide not to join WWE, good call.

 

[Pepper Lewis]

1. Never having a HULK HOGAN vs RIC FLAIR at WRESTLEMANIA

2. Not Turning CENA HEEL by now!

3. Messing up the Can Am Connection

4. Short Title Reign for SHAWN MICHAELS

5. Not getting STING

6. Messing up the NWO angle in WWE

7. Messing up the WCW Angle

8. Giving the WORLD/WWE title to LOW TALENT like cm punk, and jeff hardy!

9. NOT USING ALEX RILEY

10. Today's PG ERA, destory REAL WRESTLING, NO SURPRISE FACTOR, and Hiring Wrestlers with no charisma, and all looking the same!

 

[MrAsmith97]

For me, its WWE taking the strap off of Christian in such a short period of time. I understand that Vince never saw Christian as "That Guy" and only wanted it to happen for a feel good moment with Edge; but would it have been that bad to just see what Christian could do with it?

 

[RicSpade]

All wrestling companies make stupid decisions, it doesn't matter which one. Dibiase never winning the WWF title was a horrible idea, Giving Bobby Heenan Ric Flair as his only client as world champion another BS move...

The worst decision WWE ever made was WM9 when they let Hogan beat Yokozuna for the title after not capturing the titles with Beefcake. Not only was it stupid because it lost momentum for Yokozuna, but he never got to beat Hogan cleanly, Hogan didn't want fans to believe Hulkamania could lose cleanly to a man the size of Yokozuna because Hogan couldn't lose to Andre the Giant cleanly, quite frankly that was the beginning of the ball rolling of bad booking.

Now when it comes to modern day WWE the PG era or maybe the last 7 years its the bad booking of Money in the bank winners that win the title... CM Punk and Dolph Ziggler, CM Punk was booked weak his entire title run despite winning Money in the Bank, even though it took a while to get over. Now when it comes to Ziggler he was booked weak holding the case, he won it, but then was weak his entire championship run and his first defense he loses it just to turn him. Other than that you can argue all the rest of it Christians title reigns, the way Orton is booked, Bringing back every WWE title, but when it comes to championships they book everything horribly if its not their top 4 guys...

The same feud that made Sting decide not to join WWE, good call.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Not to defend Triple H, but I will respond to each of these points.

Jeff Hardy v Triple H- Triple H said in an interview, when asked about this, that if Jeff had beaten him the first time for the title, it would not have meant as much, as to have it kept away from Jeff for a while, have him chase it, make the fans wait, and then, when he finally wins, it is more meaningful, because Jeff has then beaten a guy who has beaten him a couple of times first, when no-one thought he could, making the eventual win more meritorious.

Also, Sting wouldn't have joined WWE, even if Triple H-Booker incident didn't happen. Sting doesn't want to be in WWE. He is his own man, and feels above the WWE. He likes where he is. Sting won't join because Sting doesn't want to join, period, and no incident will change his mind. So, he needs to be honest and say that he is the real reason for not joining, and not blame others for his lack of passion for joining WWE.

The only way I can see Sting in WWE, is a one-match, one-night match against the Undertaker at Wrestlemania, after he is paid truckloads of money. Otherwise, he will keep his stubborn ass elsewhere.

 

[HBsam31]

Probably for me it was never having Hogan vs Flair at Mania. It was a feud everyone wanted to see when I was a kid, and it would have been epic. I have read as to the reasons why, but I still think they should have made it happen. Another one I think was having Alberto Del Rio cash in his MITB briefcase on Punk after beating Cena at Summerslam. Even though Punk went on to have a great run I always thought they took the steam out of him too early. Losing to HHH at Night of Champions didn't help either. I think his run would have been even better had he not lost the momentum at those times.

I'm with you on this one...

Now, I'm not against all product placement. I have no issues with a quick backstage segment showing the latest WWE video game or whatnot, because that's a WWE product. But the Sonic, Dominos and Hardees stuff recently IMO is excessive.

I didn't even mind the WWE PPV's being sponsored by Karate Fighters or whatnot back in the day, because it still wasn't really part of the show, with the exception of a little logo on the entranceway.

But, last week on SmackDown, when the ring announcer literally said "This match, brought to you by Hardee's Bacon Cheeseburgers, is scheduled for one fall," yeah... That was overboard, IMO.

I mean, what's next, a Dominos Pizza on a pole match...? Oops... Better not give them any ideas.

[CrucifiedRaven]

I don't know how you guys can be pissed about something NOT happening..? Disappointed maybe. But pissed that Flair faced Savage instead of Hogan at 'Mania? Or that Cena is still a smiley nice guy baby face?

I think the only time I ever got angry about a booking decision was the Montreal Screwjob. Being Canadian. Being a lifelong Bret Hart fan. Being 12 years old. At the time, I was pissed that WWF could let Bret go out the way he did. In hindsight, looking back now it was obvious they needed to move on without Bret and the controversy over it gave them huge exposure. But at the time, that decision legitimately pissed me off.

 

[Wolf Pac]

Raw's move to 3 hours annoys me. There is just no need for it since they haven't any competition right now, and WWE have so many programs on every week that I've had to cut back on a few of their shows to keep myself from getting burnt out just watching. With the exception of a few shows (like last night's) since they went to 3 hours, the shows just haven't been as good anymore, so those extra 1 hours that I could've used to watch or do something else instead, were wasted.

It doesn't piss me off, but I agree with Da Solo about Triple H beating Booker T at Wrestlemania XIX. At the time, Booker was the hottest thing on RAW since the brand split, due to his storyline with Goldust. He showed a new side to him that we had never seen before, he developed a more likeable personality, and was more charismatic than he had ever been. Him and Triple H were the glue holding RAW together until WM XIX when HHH beat him. Hunter had killed all of his momentum, and soon after he faded into obscurity. And prior to Wrestlemania, Triple H also buried him in racially demeaning ways, saying that "people like him were uneducated and incapable of winning the big one", which wouldn't have been so bad if he had gotten his comeuppance at Wrestlemania and Booker won the title from him, proving him wrong.

 

[ShinobiMusashi]

Two things happened right around the same time in 2000, and led to me divorcing pro wrestling altogether for a solid decade.

Moved Raw to TNN(final nail in the coffin for ECW).

Repackaged Undertaker into a fucking pussy biker that comes out to Kid Rock music.

 

[evolutionfan4life]

bringing swagger back as a heel,,
what i would of done was build cesero up as u.s champ disrespecting usa and it stars and saying he'll carry the belt saying no american will beat and have this going elimination chamber and after another defence agianst eg;r truth
and cutting a promo on defeating all challangers swaggers theme hits and defends america and challanges him at mania
so you've a great anti american heel built up to main event status and swagger as an all american hero with the crowd behind him
win win

 

[evolutionfan4life]

noticed that after them series of matches hhh still didnt put jeff over for the title and had edge do it instead??
