Take out the controversy surrounding Crown Jewel, and I think it still wins this. I only saw clips of that main event, and it was equal parts sad and hilariously bad. Shane winning a best in the world tournament he wasn't even in to begin with... It was a late WCW PPV in 2018. They can make the entry work without any of the political talk. On top of the show just being bad, there was putting the title back on Lesnar after everything, the garbage with the BITW tournament consisting 100% of Americans, in addition to WWE spending more time hyping up this show while ignoring Evolution which ended up being the far superior show. At least Greatest Royal Rumble had Titus World Slide to talk about as a bit of fun. Crown Jewel didn't even have that.

Crown Jewel was apparently a complete mess of a show, and that's not even getting into the controversial geopolitical crap.

When Bobby Lasley’s “sisters” were on, people here swore it couldn’t get any worse.
It did.

Is TNA so meh nowadays not even running over a child gets a mention ? Impact did have Sami Callihan vs Eddie Edwards feud, which should have been a nomination. It started with Eddie getting hit in the face with a REAL baseball bat in a spot that should never have been greenlit, had the "face" in the feud threaten to drive over a thousand miles to put two women in hospital, and had Eddie telling his wife and Impact management that he was going to straight up murder Sami Callihan.
Without question, that feud should have been nominated for a gooker. It's prime LOLTNA, it's a waste of Edwards (a dude that is great at technical wrestling, but wasn't trained in the selling part) and when they put Edwards in the main event, the rating for Impact tanked.

I'd argue the Lashley's sisters segment is still the worst and most horrible segment of the year, it's just that WWE decided to do something so insane and bad in real life that it overshadowed any dumb stuff they put on their scripted television show. It's a perspective thing.

I'm not sure I've ever been so confused by an event as Crown Jewel. Just so weird. The Brock garbage. The Shane garbage. The main event. Yeesh.

I’m not even a big Lesnar hater like most here but that Strowman match at Crown Jewel should be enough to give that event the award.

Crown Jewel has to win; That was a terrible idea from beginning to end that anyone could have seen coming.

Things like Crown Jewel and Eddiesploitation should never be on this list. I read Wrestlecrap to escape the real world. Crown Jewel was a real world controversy. I don't want this. I watch wrestling for escapism too. Wrestlecrap is supposed to be FUN. Shit like this is why I barely read the site any more. I stopped reading the site years ago in part to the shift in attitude like this

Easy vote for Crown Jewel. Just in poor taste to begin with but then on top of it it ruined the HBK retirement angle

I'm happy there's some actual crap moments instead of just "I don't like the way this was booked, so it sucks".

Lashley's sisters is one of the stupidest and most embarrasing things I have seen in my almost 30 years of being a fan.

Like in any other year, Lashley's Sisters would've been the easy choice for me. Then WWE had the "hold my beer" moment with Crown Jewel.
2018 in general was filled with a ton of wrestlecrap, thinking about it. Feels like even more than usual.
