They posted the induction last week, somehow didn’t notice until just now. Did a huge surge of votes manage to turn the tides of the winner? No, of course not, Crown Jewel crushed it. wrestlecrap.com/inductions/gooker-2018/Well deserved loss/win there.

And the article wasn't the depressing screed I expected it to be.

The final 3 matches on the card needs to be viewed with the Benny Hill theme as a soundtrack.

WWE commentary is at the same "Treat the audience as completely stupid" point that TNA was when Tenay and West would repeat what was said in a promo 5 seconds after a line was delivered.
How often is it that, given numerous multiple choices, a Gooker award is determined by outright majority vote as opposed to a plurality of votes?

Yeah, usually I'm in the camp of the Gooker needing to be a "so bad, it's hilarious" type of thing but good lord, Crown Jewel was a tremendous train wreck from every aspect. All time mess of a show.

Honestly that induction did as much as it could to focus on the train wreck show over the political issues with it while still acknowledging them. Really liked how the induction came out, and grateful for it because I didn't watch the show and didn't know just how bad and disastrous the tag match was, but now that I've seen how it played out, biggest yikes

Yikes. And it's really damn sad that it's quite likely that's the last match for everyone involved but Triple H.

They just wanted to be sure you understood the WWE World Cup Tournament would determine the best in the world. Wait a sec, I didn't get that, what will it determine?

Can't disagree with this. I mean, look at how much of Crown Jewel ended up "winning" in the Golden Snowcones. They just wanted to be sure you understood the WWE World Cup Tournament would determine the best in the world. Wait a sec, I didn't get that, what will it determine? I think it's for the one night where RAW and SmackDown go head to head in direct competition.

Side Note: I sure am glad that "Crown Jewel" and "World Cup" were two entirely different shows, and not another insulting our intelligence PR save by WWE because we're dumb and don't know the names of things that happened a few months ago.

The writeup really helped drive home just how bad that tag match is as I don't actually wanna watch it. Until now the most I had to go on was botchmania and this board.

About 5 years ago I worked my last match. It was maybe my 15th match that I worked outside of the Fake AJ Lee gimmick, and the only singles match I worked after I blew an MCL doing a Sliced Bread onto a wooden floor (wouldn't recommend) which I only just got surgically corrected 2 weeks ago. With that said, I can confidently say this tag match that cost at least $10 million dollars and had a combined in ring experience of over 100 years, was worse than my last match.
