Ok, lay 'em on me, gang. What was the worst of the worst in 2009? We'll be compiling the top (or is it bottom?) 10, and start the voting on the first update of 2010. RD

There was a lot of crap this year but there is NO way anything tops Hornswoggle vs. Chavo...over and over and over and over...
Its bad enough that a leprachaun was beating up a former ECW, Cruiserweight and tag team champion...but it KEPT happening.
For MONTHS!

Hornswoggle v. Chavo and the RAW Guest Host experiment are the first two that sprang to mind.

I'd give a nod to the Slammies show. RAW's had some bad shows, but that show was nuclear.

The Never-Ending Story of Hornswoggle vs. Chavo Guerrero HAS to top most lists here.
But some other nominees to throw out there:
- Sharmell vs. Jenna Morasca at TNA Victory Road 2009
- Cody Deaner: King of the Knockouts
- ZZ Top RAW Guest Hosts: Pre-Recorded Segment Bonanza!
- Al Sharpton RAW Guest Host: .......Why?
- Jeremy Piven RAW Guest Host: SummerFest!
I can't put the RAW Guest Host concept as a whole because there have been some good Guest Hosts as well.

Well Horny/Chavo was mentioned already. Let me think of some others.
Dolph/Maria realtionship: That lasted what? 2 weeks. Also led to the worst acting I've seen in Maria being rejected.
Hornswoggle sues DX: Despite the fact Horny was sued by DX first, that's quickly forgotten and DX is sued. Still not done yet but yeah.
Chris Masters and his dancing pecs: Yeah it's funny but...this is the gimmick he has. That's sad.

How about Kid Rock bumping the Tag Team Unification Match off Wrestlemania.

Chavo VS Hornswoggle. This took up months of TV and frequently featured Chavo losing to the leprechaun.
D-X VS Hornswoggle. At least D-X didn't job out to the leprechaun, but that doesn't make up for the "hilarious" legal drama between the two parties.

Another one to add in, how about the re-branding of PPV's into a gimmick match theme (i.e. Hell In A Cell, TLC, Breaking Point, and coming soon Elimination Chamber).
Just throwing several of the same types of matches out there in desperation for buys, while at the same time ruining those matches mystique.

Kid Rock
"Sarah Palin"
the following as Raw hosts: Cedric the Entertainer, Jeremy Piven, and ZZ Top

I'm shocked no one has mentioned TNA's biggest stinker of the year: Jenna Morasca vs. Sharmell. You don't let a person with minimal to no experience wrestle on TV, let alone PPV.

Naked Pictures of Vickie Guerrero: Top Babyface Superman Blackmails Widowed Heel Authority Figure over Marital Infidelity and Destroys Her Marriage, all the while earning himself a title shot!
ENNIS!!! and the Nuggets/Lakers tomfoolery.
Kid Rock: no sold by a football stadium, bumped the tag title unification match off of WrestleMania, and prevented each and every Diva plus the special guests (like Sunny) from being introduced. And it likely contributed to the short time left for the HHH/Orton downer of a main event.

Easily Chavo/Hornswaggle, especially when you take into consideration that the angle has utterly ruined the reputation of one of the original Smackdown 6. Think about that for a moment. The other members of the 6 went on to become either WHC or WWE champs, while Chavo went on to repeatedly job to a midget.

And in HA-HA-HA..ILARIOUS gimmick matches with cow suits and tuxedos and all kinds of shenanigans.

You don't let a person with minimal to no experience wrestle on TV, let alone PPV. - Sharmell vs. Jenna Morasca at TNA Victory Road 2009 As for me. The whole Hurricane-Burchill thing has to be there. The Abraham Washington Show Pretty Ricky Or since it seems like it's over Mickie James: What's old is apparantly new again. Just ask Molly Holly

Anything with the word Hornswaggle in it.
