I would have put this in the (W)rest section, but every nomination is for WWE, so I figure it works just as well here. wrestlecrap.com/inductions/gookerwin/2018-gooker-award-voting-pick-the-very-worst-of-pro-wrestling/Nominees are: -SHANE MCMAHON – THE BEST IN THE WORLD -DRAKE MAVERICK’S URINARY ISSUES -KEVIN OWENS PORTA POTTY PROBLEMS -THE NEVER-ENDING SASHA-BAYLEY SAGA -WWE CROWN JEWEL -BOBBY LASHLEY’S “SISTERS” -10-YEAR OLD WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPION NICHOLAS -RAW IS WAR THREE HOURS OF CORBIN -JOHN CENA VS. THE UNDERTAKER -THE EXPLOITATION OF JIM NEIDHART No prizes for guessing which one, but one nominee already has more votes than every other nominee combined.

I'm thinking this has Crown Jewel written all over it. It automatically includes Shane as the best in the world. It's a twofer.

Crown Jewel has to win it.
And I'm surprised the exploitation of Roman's leukemia isn't on the list.

It's nice to see they actually picked some things that made sense as Gooker candidates. Not just selecting Wrestlemania because the show was too long.

Nicholas was awesome, I will die on this hill. It would have been better to not sacrifice the entire tag team division for a cutesy little joke is all EDIT: Beginning of the end for Strowman, too. That's exactly the kind of thing that makes people go, "You know what, f*** this smug asshole who never loses."

Crown Jewel easily, though Bobby Lashley's Sisters was probably more acutely terrible from a creative side.

The crown jewel got them international scorn and humiliation, it’s gotta be that one.

CROWN JEWEL should win it. Worst show of the year, has multiple Gooker moments on its own and the bad publicity that came with it.

I think it's more the fact that Wrestlemania has sucked a bag of dicks for several years running. The fact that the shows were also 2,751 hours long just made them worse.

And I'm surprised the exploitation of Roman's leukemia isn't on the list. 1) Yes, moreso since the Gooker has pretty much become the Worst Promotional Move instead of corniest character/gimmick. 2) TBF, that was that one promo, no? Neidhart has been ongoing. But it's still nowhere as bad as exploiting Eddie or Paul.

Nah, Ambrose brought it up in a few promos, Rollins did too and the announcers continuously mentioned it in their entire feud.

I'd say the Ambrose heel turn in general should also be a nominee. But yeah Crown Jewel wins easy. It was a terrible show, had horrible press over doing it at all, and the results set up stuff that no one wanted to see going forward.

Comparatively, some of these nominations make Kevin Owens In A Portapotty look like the early days of the NWO angle.
Crown Jewel for the win (loss?)

You know it's been a bad year when 3 drag queens in an "End this please" segment that kills the credibility of someone TNA made look good isn't even getting 10%

Might've been a big mistake to put Crown Jewel on here. The entire Sami/Lashley feud should be inducted regardless of the result, though.

I'd rather it be Lashley's "Sisters" so they don't have to write a Geopolitical Rant.
