Worst Gimmick Match
 

Seriously, what gimmick match just makes you go "oh fuck me, not this horse shit again!!!"

Last Man Standing, definitely. It's a God-awful concept, and it guarantees that a large part of the match will consist of too-long periods of ONE...............................................TWO............................................... ...THREE.......................................FOUR.............................................FIVE ...................................................SIX...................................

...rinse and repeat.

And draws are even worse, cause then you have a crappy ending, and both participants lie there for like ten minutes, and then we spend twenty minutes watching them stand up.

So what makes you wanna vomit?

King of the Mountain. Whoever thought a reverse ladder match involving pins and a penalty box would be a good idea is a fucking moron.

Anything of a pole is pretty bad.

And King of the Moutain is pretty bad too.

Punjabi. Also, Last Man Standing is amazing. Given the right guys, the psychology is off the charts.

The reverse battle royal was fucking awful.

How the hell did that work?

From what i remember wrestlers had to race into the ring. then the first 7 to make it were in the match. then it became a regular battle royal until there were 2 left. then it became a regular match.

:wtf:

Pole matches...especially Flag matches.

Also, strap matches.

Cruiserweight matches

Reverse battle Royal Sucked indeed. Pretty much anything TNA comes up with sucks. Like they combine matches, like the Elimination cage match until 2 guys are left then they have to escape.

I still vote Coal Miners glove as the worst ever. EVER!










EVER

If you're talking about the one from ISW, thats really not a serious promotion so it kinda fits.

It would have made as much sense! :shifty:

Ummm...Did everyone forget the Blindfolded Cage match?

Electric cage match. Totally unrealistic and terribly executed, even by glorious TNA standards

We try to, we really do try

Anything TNA has "invented" is fucking terrible.

6 sided ring matches.

the tuxedo match sucked

Kennel From Hell

Ladder matches :shifty:







In all honesty, I quit matches.

When has there ever been a bad I Quit match?

TNA has horrible gimmick matches, Raven's Clockwork Orange, Monsters Ball, King of the Mountain, Reverse Battle Royal (how fucking stupid is that), Ultimate X, Elevation X, Really every match they try to be creative with sucks horrible shit balls.

I fucking hate ______ on a Pole Matches.

Reverse Battle Royal, Anything Pole, And that electric chair/electric cage/electric clusterfuck match WCW had back in the day.

Orange Clockwork House of Fun match was awesome. Fuck you Jordan X

Empty Arena matches.
Thank god this hasn't been done in a loooong time.

I gotta say that the Ultimate X match isn't a bad concept. Mind you, it helps when the majority of those involved are usualy pretty good workers.

Most of the above mentioned TNA matches, Kennel from Hell, most Pole matches, empty arena matches are boring as shit, the three tiered Ready 2 Rumble cage, the old Electric Chair cage, Kendo Stick matches (WCW), Boiler Room Brawl, Punjabi Prism

Oh, come on, the Boiler Room Brawl was good.

Was one of my favorite matches growing up. (The original Taker/Mankind one, not the ones which proceeded it.) :$

First guy to break a piece of glass and produce a rainbow with it?

All matches including electric and Khail. Aslo ironman and table matches

Buried alive matches and Casket matches to me are so insanely stupid. I cant handle watching it and have people mark out and think the man buried is dead now

To go back to DT's original post of LMS, I didn't mind them a couple of years ago. They only used to break them out every year or two. But WWE put up an article of past LMS matches, and showed that Cena/Orton will be LMS 3 of 2007. No gimmick match(except no dq/extreme rules/hardcore) should be used that much in a year. It kinda kills it.

I used to really like HIAC, but I'm not too bothered about them anymore either.

I do have a pet peeve with cage matches. Where they are used to settle a feud because the cowardly heel keeps running away......when the object of the match is to escape your opponent!

I think the worst for me are pole matches. Just don't like them.

I loved the 1st one too. Pretty sure it was only Foley/Show that proceeded it. I heard a Foley interview on a podcast this year where he talked about those. Apparently he was offered gimmicked weapons and shit in the 1st one, but refused it, because he wanted a realistic feel to it. But he came out of it so bad that when the second one rolled around, he requested that every weapon in the room was gimmicked.

TNA's Reverse Battle Royal. 17 guys around the ring pretending they can't get in. NO BUYS.

So of course, they're doing it again at Bound For Glory.

What was that stupid match with Sting and Abyss with the candleabras in the ring, blue lighting and phantom of the opera music playing over the top? Last Rites or something?

I don't understand how these matches supposedly get sanctioned. Would Mankind have had to go to Gorilla Monsoon (I believe the on-screen President at the time) and explain that he wanted to wrestle the Undertaker in the Boiler Room of the Gund Arena, and the winner would be whomever can reclaim the urn from Paul Bearer waiting in the ring? I don't think the venue would have permitted the use of their Boiler Room in such a manner for starters.

That was a great idea, just a terrible execution.

Also, for an optimist, you do a lot of bitching.

The inferno match was pretty weak.

John Cena title matches


Spoiler warning:


Whats the point?

Can't believe no one has mentioned the dreaded Scaffold Match yet.

when I was younger I thought a good match gimmick would be to have 2 matches go on at the same time.

TNA: Double Trouble

TWICE the action, TWICE the excitement, TWICE THE BIZARRE!

Didn't ECW do that years ago? They called it "Double Jeopardy" if memory serves.

Two single matches in the same ring, the winners of which would face each other. Fairly sure Jerry Lynn was involved.

Yep. November To Remember 2000 Jerry Lynn, Justin Credible, Sandman and won by Steve Corino.

I don't mind the Coal Miners Glove on a Pole, but The first one I thought of was Judy Bagwell on a Pole.

Did they actually have it?

On a pole matches.

Biker Chain match springs to mind from No Mercy 03, Taker/Brock, I think Vince turned the lights out or something.

No.

Not yet, anyway.

Hog Pin Match

HIV infected Needle Match. (And yes, some 6th rate indy fed had one.)

When would a Ladder match make sence BDC?
lol I remember that.

I hate when they promote the same match as something else. Kane/Triple H at Judgment Day 01 was a chain match. Taker/Brock at No Mercy 03 was a Biker Chain match? Why? Cuz Taker was a biker? I didn't see either match so maybe there was a difference between the chains but if not, dumb.
