Superbral 91, for a variety of reasons: - The run-in at the end of the Freebirds/Young Pistols match. - Missy Hyatt attempting to get an interview in the men's dressing room. - The debut of Johnny B. Badd. - Big Josh and his "dancing bears." I'm far from an animal rights activist, but that made me legit uncomfortable. - Oz... With a full entrance. - Stan Hansen, who was full-on Yosemite Sam at this point. - Sid vs. El Gigante... In a stretcher match. - Teddy Long in a cage. Boo this man!!!!!!!!!!! BOO!!!!!!!!!

Wrestlemania II? Really most of the first few Wrestlemania's are incredibly boring.
Armageddon 2002 doesn't have any great matches, but the Torrie/Dawn segment prevents it being the worst ever.
Bad Blood and Judgement Day 2003 were terrible as was Raw then too.

definitely Fall Brawl 98. I was there and the show was indeed awful, but i had a great time. I was in the nosebleed seats. Just up from Klondike Bill and the bell. We watched a lot of the show on the monitor beside him.

Bad Blood and Judgement Day 2003 were terrible as was Raw then too. I wouldn't recommend any of the early Manias for someone wanting to watch a trainwreck. Most of them are just boring - I'm watching Mania 5 right now and watched Mania 4 directly before it and both feel like they're days long.

Halloween Havoc 2000. During a year where WCW put out terrible PPVs on a regular basis, this is at least a strong contender for the worst.
Including such delights as a Buff Bagwell-David Flair match that's every bit as bad as you'd expect, The Cat and Mike Sanders in a kickboxing bout, Mike Awesome vs Vampiro in a match containing so many botches it actually becomes laughably entertaining, Sting and Jarrett in the semi-infamous 'Sting attacked by various types of Sting' match and Steiner making Booker T look like an utter jobber before a lame DQ ending then Goldberg in a squash match as the main event.
A failure in design, a failure in execution and a failure in revenue. Even in the dark days of late-era WCW they didn't come much worse than Halloween Havoc 2000.

Fair point, avoid them if you want to watch something horrific. Avoid if you want to watch a good show too.

That PPV also has Steiners vs Luger/Sting and Arn Anderson vs Bobby Eaton, its hardly that bad of a show (granted, i've only seen the clipped home video version).

I've been working my way through the WCW PPVs from Starrcade 1995 until the final PPV and I'm currently on Halloween Havoc 2000. I'll be watching that later tonight. Now I'm afraid.

In Your House 4 is pretty dire. Razor/Kid vs Smoking Gunns is good, but there's not much else to reccomend, unless you really want to hear HHH talking with a british accent. Also, NWO Souled Out (the first one). Its not very good (even syxx/guerrero wasnt that great), but it does have a unique feel to it.

Well Halloween Havoc was Godawful. I feel like I can't fully describe how bad it was.

God I love 2000 WCW. Apple Pie Indian Strap Matches! Kronik main eventing a PPV! The Demon! Sting being attacked by clones of himself with no explanation! How can you not love that?

Armaggedon 2004, felt like a really bad 3 hour episode of Smackdown. A lot of the single brand PPV's are this way. Another PPV I hate is Ground Zero. Some crap from this show: - Scott Putski on PPV - Bleeping cuss words on PPV. - A minis match. - The Headbangers in the second longest match of the show. - Patriot getting a WWF title shot. - A triple threat match with Faarooq, Savio Vega and Crush for the Gang Warz Plus, the Louisville Gardens look like a high school gym.

Uncensored 1995: Meng and Jim Duggan in a MARTIAL ARTS MATCH. Johnny B.Badd v. Arn Anderson in a "Boxer versus Wrestler match". Randy Savage and Avalanche ends in a DQ after Ric Flair interferes while dressed in drag. This despite the fact the match was billed as no-DQ. There was also of course the famous King of the Road match where Dustin Rhodes and Blacktop Bully both bladed and were fired. They couldn't show the blood either so the match is borderline unwatchable. Ah yes... the first ever PPV I was able to convince my parents to order for me. How I'm still a wrestling fan after that I'll never know - I guess for a 13 year old this show was awesome.

The Gardens is one of my absolute favorite venues to watch wrestling. It's not a HS gym...I think it was a minor league pro basketball gym, though it did also host some HS tourneys, haha. Certainly beats Broadbent Arena, which is where TNA ran last year. Broadbent has zero charm or history, whereas the Gardens was a wrestling venue for decades for Memphis/USWA.

I wouldn't call the Minis match crap. Silly as they may seem, they're pretty incredible athletes and did some great, exciting stuff.
