This is the funny match result thread. Here is where we recall match results that were completely baffling.
A good match will have you wondering who will win, but sometimes there are matches where someone wins that is not only surprising...but ridiculous as well.
Many of you remember the build to Undertaker/HBK where Koslov reversed Taker's old school into a powerslam and got a clean pin on raw with no build. This thread is for match results like that.
So here's another one: Great American bash 2005. Orlando Jordan was US champ. Benoit beat Booker T to challenge him. (This was before the "beating OJ in 22 seconds etc gimmick").
Orlando Jordan, who had been doing nothing but defend the title once every couple weeks on Velocity or something for months, seemed poised to lose the title. Yet...he didn't. He retained by revealing the turnbuckle, smacking Benoit into it, and winning with a rollup.

Mark Henry falls on Ryback because Ryback couldn't lift him up. Ryback lifts him up with ease afterwards. Turns heel and is now number one contender.

Chavo Guerrero promising to defeat (former US Champion) Daniel Bryan in 5 minutes, just barely not being able to, and then tossing DB out of the ring as a total afterthought right before Sin Cara comes out for their big showdown.

I actually think we can count Ziggler's clean loss to Curtis Axel here. It wasn't necessarily super surprising, but it was like you could see a visual "wwe shoe" animation collapsing on Ziggler when it happened.

Mark Henry falls on Ryback because Ryback couldn't lift him up. Ryback lifts him up with ease afterwards. Turns heel and is now number one contender. it wasn't that Ryback couldn't lift him up. Henry reached out and grabbed the top rope and held himself stationary. When Ryback tried to move him his weight shifted so Henry fell on top of him |

Trent Barretta beats Drew McIntyre during his Chosen One stage. And related to this - at Elimination Chamber 2010, Drew McIntyre beat Kane to retain the Intercontinental Championship. The next week on Smackdown, Kane and Drew have a non-title match where Kane wins cleanly and becomes the first person to pin McIntyre in a match. I know they ended up reversing it because 'rurrgh, I'm the Chosen One dammit' but what was the thought process of having a 40+ year old Kane, who Drew had literally just beaten days before, be the one to end his unbeaten streak? |

I'll go a bit old school, but when I'd read that the WW(W)F title would be held up because of a ref bump and someone like Bobby Duncum (or Greg Valentine) would be a temporary champion because "the referee awarded the title to the wrong man".
Even in the art of suspending my beliefs as a wrestling fan, that one is far and beyond incomprehensible. And lazy.

The Hurricane pinned The Rock. Regardless of the circumstances, The Hurricane, of all people, is an undefeated 1-0 against The People's Champion.
Later in 2003, Zach Gowen pinning Matt Hardy cleanly on a pay-per-view (No Mercy) springs to mind. Gowen had done a clean job to Vince McMahon three months earlier. Nobody talks about it these days, but every fan I knew at that time was baffled about this one.

Zack Ryder has pinned Mark Henry while Henry was a monster heel. Sure it was Cena who actually did the winning, but it was a no DQ match.
