The infamous King Mabel vs. Diesel WWF Championship match from SummerSlam 95: after a ref bump, Men on a Mission are ganging up on Diesel. Lex Luger runs to the ring to even the odds, but Diesel attacks Lex for reasons never explained, clotheslining him out of the ring. Luger fights Mo to the back, allowing the main event to continue one-on-one.
I think a week or two later was the first Nitro, and Lex showed up there, never to be seen in WWF again.

X-Pac interfering in the Austin v Taker first blood match where if Taker lost Vince was gone. Yeah I know Taker was semi feuding with X-Pac & Kane at the time but it still seems weird. So X-Pac ended the Austin v McMahon feud basically. That made sense due to the rivalry, and the fact that X-Pac was red hot at the time. They were building a main event underdog face with X-Pac with how over he kept getting, and how over X-Pac and Kane were as a team. Good thing they turned X-Pac heel, and break up with Kane. That clearly made a lot of sense to turn him heel, and it did absolutely no damage to him at all. WCW '98 - nWo is in full effect. Chris Jericho is not part in any remote way of the nWo. The Giant comes out and saves him twice from something and it's never mentioned again. If I'm not mistaken Jericho mentioned in his book that WCW wanted him to be in the nWo, but he kept refusing it.

Bret Hart interfering in the Sid and Undertaker match at Wrestlemania 13. It would seem that Bret only interfered because he lost the title to Sid on Raw after Final 4, but why did he need to interfere? Yes, they had the cage rematch on Raw after Final 4, but still it seemed random.

It was rumored in Kayfabe that Luger was in cahoots with the future Big Daddy V so in Kayfabe that is why Diesel attacked him. (In reality according to Titan Sunking, he clotheslined him because Lex jumped in way too early and it was a message for him to wait for his spot.)

I knew British Bulldog turned heel during the SummerSlam build-up, but didn't recall Luger being involved at all.

HHH was getting beat up by Carlito and his goons once when London and Kendrick of all people ran down to make the save, only for HHH to beat them up for it.
Some of the run ins in the Kid Kash/Rhyno title match in ECW (I mean, there was about 70 run ins) were a bit random unless you remembered every small bit of the Rhyno storyline from the previous year.

I'm sure I'm misremembering, but first thing I thought of was Kevin Federline.

Aldo Montoya running in first to save Razor at the first IYH before Savio, what a waste of time that was

Reggie Bennett in the Barely Legal 97 main event I don’t think she showed up again in ECW This has always baffled me. I have never seen or heard of her before or since.

This has always baffled me. I have never seen or heard of her before or since. Reggie Bennett was from the late 80s, early 90s. I think she was popular in Japan. My first seeing of her was in a 1992 Apter-like magazine where she was dressed as a construction worker. At some point she was fairly muscular but by 1992 when the magazine came out she must have gained a lot of weight. She's what can be described as a BBW. She was quite large but very beautiful. From what I see on her facebook page she works as a supervisor for a Home Depot store in Florida.

(Taker helped Sid win so their match remained for the title.) Bret had a problem with everybody involved in that match; including Shawn on commentary.

Ted Dibiase costing Kerry Von Erich the IC title to Mr. Perfect springs to mind. Yeah, I know they had a series of matches on the house show circuit, but two reasons why it was random a)there was no hint of animosity between the two prior to it, and b)nothing came out of it. Plus, Dibiase was feuding with Dusty Rhodes at the time, what sense does it make for him to insert himself in a match with two guys he has no previous interaction with?

I didn't see the Raw episodes from that time (before I became a fan, and while I could use the Network, my subscription expired and I will wait for the Peacock merger). But when I get to, I will see that for myself.

I remember being really baffled watching Judgment Day 2002 when Vince interfered to cost Hulk Hogan the title against Undertaker. This was some time before their Wrestlemania 19 feud, and it was never brought up by anyone on TV in the weeks to come.

They had an angle the week before on TV. Dustin was a guest on the Brother Love show and Ted and Virgil beat him down, drawing Texas Tornado to come out and even the odds. I think at the time Dusty had given notice that we was heading back to WCW, and I think there was a theory on these boards recently that they were prepping TT to be Dustin's tag partner for the Rumble match in case Dusty bolted.

Not really a run in but random as hell.
Years back there was a house show I attended in Newmarket Ontario. Ric Flair vs Randy Savage for the title in the main event. Savage was champ at the time and a face. Flair and Perfect were heels but had 90% of the crowd cheering for them.
Anyways Perfect interfered and the ref legit counted to 3! Match over Flair handed the belt The crowd of only 2000 were going insane!
Here's where it got odd. Tito Santana in street clothes who didn't even have a match on the card came running down to tell the ref Perfect interfered and the decision was reversed,Flair lost by DQ.

DiBiase - the IC title must remain attached to greatness. Mr Perfect nods ** 9 months later ** Mr Perfect - I thought you said the title must remain attached to greatness. DiBiase - Yeah, uh, whatever. (DiBiase quietly pockets Stu Hart's bribe money...)
