Lets not forget these gems: When I see this I keep forgetting it's Kozlov, I always think it's Taker (hairline) or Edge (eyes) when I see it in the FCW arena until I remember that Kozlov was getting pushed at one point.

I found it creepy that WWE would have a Pay Per View named OVER THE Limit with Canadian wrestler EDGE on the poster exactly 11 years after the death of Canadian wrestler Owen Hart at the OVER THE EDGE Pay Per View. Very disturbing.

Batista's EC & ER posters are amazing.

Very disturbing. I kept calling it Over The Edge for the longest time, I think I got the picture around the 2011 OTL. Didn't Hart Dynasty win the titles on that show too?

Oh my forking god! I never realized WWE had so many creepy posters, but boy do they. What is their obsession with it? It doesn't fit with the product in the least, as everything else is usually so tame. The PPV theme songs are usually very happy sounding poprock tracks. So why are so many posters nightmare inducing?

I also never realized how many of their posters look like DTV horror movies about steroid freaks coming to kill you.
For such a PG image, it sure is strange. Why not more in-ring action and less photoshop. I know they print these posters months in advance, but what do they really use them before aside from the ringside seats and hanging them up at Blast Zones? Sometimes the wrestler on the poster isn't even on the PPV, other times the poster makes zero sense: Big Show and Hornswoggle on the MITB poster this year.

The Extreme Rules Batista poster is a fake.

Even if is a fake, the fact that it looks so believable shows just how derned WEIRD WWE's posters have gotten lately. Edge has actually had a series of them That man is just a little too good at giving those looks you would imagine the guy in prison giving you when you drop the soap.

The Austin one worked so well given that at that point (on TV, at least) his paranoia was at it's peak and he seemed to be on the verge of a meltdown

No, they won them on Raw the night after Extreme Rules.
