Armageddon 2003 is 3 hours of your life you'll never get back. This show doesn't get the hate it deserves when these kind of lists come up. And to top it all off, HHH gets back his World title. That was part of what made it so awful. Triple H put a shit cherry on top of what was already a giant Sundae made of shit.

Unforgiven 2004, awful PPV including HHH winning back the World Title from Randy Orton not even a month after winning it and Stevie Richards in a dress vs. Tomko.

IYH 4 was a waste of my money. Save for the Tag title match (Smoking Gunns vs. 123 Kid & Razor), the rest was pretty bad. (Mainly known as the show Shawn handed the IC title to Dean Douglas, then dropped it to Razor.)
The free giveaway with the cable bill was worth more -think it was an Undertaker figure I gave to a friend.

Basically a glorified Raw or Superstars. You even got more or as many matches on the free pre PPV showdowns every once in a while. The fans in attendance always got a few extra matches which was good for them but not the fans at home. It's easy to see how WCW would really get an upper hand on WWF around 1995, 96 even pre NWO.

Money in the Bank 2012 certainly didn't maintain the quality that the year before had. Ziggler won the blue briefcase is the best match of the night by far, but certainly middling when ranking all the MITB ladder matches, and it doesn't help that he was one of two people anyone could buy winning the match. Cena wins the red case in the main that sacrificed quality for star power, with Kane, Jericho, Big Show, and Miz comprising the field. Then, we have Punk defending his WWE title in the middle of the card (shocker) against hobo anarchist Daniel Bryan in a way too long No DQ match where all the focus was on special referee AJ Lee. The Big Gold is defended by Sheamus against Alberto Del Rio, which is one of the matches on the meme and I will leave it at that. Rounding out the rest of the card is a boatload of nothing, with The Colons defending the tag titles against the Prime Time Players (with AW about to rape joke himself out of the company), a six-Diva tag match that went 3:23, and Ryback squashing Tyler Reks and Curt Hawkins in a match that somehow went longer than the Divas tag.

Hardcore Justice 2010 - TNAs ECW reunion show. RVD vs Sabu was decent but everything else was pretty dreadful. A random 6 man opener with the FBI vs Simon Diamond, Swinger and Kid Kash Team 3D vs Balls Mahoney and Axel Rotten Rhino vs Spike vs Al Snow 2 Cold Scorpio Stevie Richards vs Justin Credible Tommy Dreamer vs Raven
Would have been a decent show in 1998. In 2010 the ECW nostalgia was on its last few drips and most of the guys involved were either out of shape, past their prime or both. Then you had things like the TNA roster appearing as talking heads throughout the night in truly boring segments. To top it all off they couldn't use the name ECW, any of the footage or many of the wrestlers names. They jump through hoops all night to talk about "that Extreme promotion in Philly."

Yeah, it's kinda funny because Vengeance 2003 is arguably the best B-level brand split PPV but Smackdown had some ROUGH outings in 2004 and early 2005. The Great American Bash in particular is ridiculous. Weird how Smackdown had good PPVs in 2006. No Way Out, Judgment Day, No Mercy, and Armageddon. Great American Bash was better than its previous entries but still not great. As for Smackdown in 2005, I thought Judgment Day was a good show. No Mercy was fine, as was Armageddon. I didn't mind the Hell in a Cell match at Armageddon in 2005.

I was trying to remember some of those late period WCW PPVs and, honestly, a lot of them were pretty decent undercards ruined by absolutely terrible main events.
WCW Halloween Havoc 2000, however...
I guess nobody talks about this show because there wasn't anything memorably terrible, there just wasn't anything at all good.
Opening match was decent, three way tag dance with Jindrak & O'Haire defeating Kidman & Rey Jr, and Boogie Knights.
After that we got a hardcore match with Reno vs The Wall, the MIA vs Perfect Event, and a terrible mixed tag match.
Then a "DNA First Blood Match" between Buff Bagwell and David Flair, which was mercifully short.
Then Mike Sanders vs The Cat in a kickboxing match to determine the new WCW Commissioner. Sanders won by countout.
Mike Awesome vs Vampiro was meh.
Hugh Morrus vs Jim Duggan & Lance Storm (c) in a handicap match for the US Title.
Jeff Jarrett beat Sting.
The only other half-decent match on the card, Booker T. vs Scott Steiner, ended in a DQ.
And then the main event was Goldberg squashing Kronik.

The Big Gold is defended by Sheamus against Alberto Del Rio, which is one of the matches on the meme and I will leave it at that. It's the first match of the meme that actually bloody happened. The first two of them were changed into something else.
