I'd have to say Goldust vs. Marty Jannetty from In Your House 4 is worth a mention. Spent all of this time building Goldust through vignettes and building him as possibly a top heel and they have him have a long and plodding match with Marty Jannetty, who they had just rehired again.

The Hell in a Cell match between Shane McMahon and Undertaker at WM 32 HHH vs. Roman at WM 32 Michael Cole vs. Jerry Lawler at WM 27 Carmella vs. Charlotte at Backlash 2018 Like 80% of Brock Lesnar matches since 2015 (love his current character, though) I was at Backlash 2018. I danced to Charlotte's theme.

Wrestlemania 9 Giant Gonzalez vs Undertaker In ring work was really poor sure, but I wouldn't call it boring, it was more a spectacle of look at the size of this man. Plus you had Undertaker come out with a vulture which was a cool image. I've always loved the image of Taker coming to the ring with the vulture

I want to say THE Go Shiozaki vs. Kazuyuki Fujita match... But I'm gonna be honest, that match is fascinating first time I watched it. That the one where they just stood there for a half hour staring at each other. Sounds less entertaining than watching paint dry
It's awful and pretentious shit, and Go Shiozaki ended up having a really good title reign despite this, so it's a bit of an anomaly.

You say that, but Marty was fired and rehired 3 times during the match.

I remember a particularly god-awful Taichi/Goto match a couple years ago (maybe 2018?) that almost made me give up on Taichi forever
Glad he rebounded

Triple H vs HBK hell in a cell
Tomko vs Steven Richards at unforgiven
Any Ironman match with maybe the exception of Lesnar vs Angle. Even that I was not into at all. It's the stipulation.
Men's Royal Rumble 2022. Too many jobbers
Edge vs Randy Orton Vengeance 2004/WM 36/wm backlash
Cena vs Orton just Cena vs Orton
Triple H vs Orton. See above
Kane vs Edge Survivor Series 2010
Orton vs Big Show Survivor Series 2013
AJ vs Bryan Royal rumble 2019
Those are just off the top of my head. There's likely many more lol

Samoa Joe vs CM Punk Ironman

HHH vs Vladimir Kozlov at Survivor Series was so bad and so boringly tedious that it effectively killed Kozlov's main event push that night.

Spent all of this time building Goldust through vignettes and building him as possibly a top heel and they have him have a long and plodding match with Marty Jannetty, who they had just rehired again. That's actually a pretty good one. Not only was the match not good but it was the complete opposite of what Goldust needed. Like he's this new mysterious character who they had hyping for months and then he just wrestles this long and plodding match where he's making such tough work of Jannetty. He ended up just coming off like any other guy. I guess with Jannetty just coming back they didn't want to completely job him out but if that's the case then don't put him in the match. They should've just Goldust squash someone like Sparky Plugg or Aldo Montoya in like three minutes. Makes him look much stronger and more of a star and it also keeps the mystery surrounding him in that it doesn't give fans too much right away.

I hope never to see anything as boring as Stevie Richard Vs Tomko again. Many matches you can laugh at how bad they are but this was just many minutes of Tomko doing the world's most boring beatdown. The match went on forever and I honestly don’t know if Stevie got any offense at all.

It’s fascinating in just how much of a fever dream match is. Not just the stare down but Fujita spitting hand sanitizer at Shiozaki, Fujita carrying Shiozaki up the stairs to the top deck and trying to throw Go off, Fujita going full Inokiism by not giving Go anything and making him take every spot. Just insanity.

Hulk Hogan vs Ultimate Warrior - WrestleMania VI. My older brother kept talking about how awesome and epic this match was. I had a hard time sitting through it. Any one on one match between John Cena and Randy Orton. Triple H vs Randy Orton - WrestleMania 25. Triple H vs Shawn Michaels - Bad Blood 2004.

Little known fact, Unforgiven was contractually obligated to have at least one heatless, mind-numbingly boring match each year. 1999 - Steve Blackman v Val Venis 2000 - Jerry Lawler v Taz (at least the crowd popped for Raven's debut at the end) 2001 - Perry Saturn v Raven 2002 - 3 Minute Warning v Billy & Chuck 2003 - Al Snow & Coach v JR & Lawler 2004 - Tomko v Stevie 2005 - Shelton Benjamin v Kerwin White 2006 - Spirit Squad v Highlanders 2007 - CM Punk v Elijah Burke 2008 - Michelle McCool v Maryse

I thought of one that I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned yet. Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar from WrestleMania XX. Battle between two guys who were on their way out of the company and half-assed their way through a nearly 14 minute match that the MSG crowd absolutely shit on.

I know it’s gonna upset some, but Bret v. Owen in the cage. Always found it dreadfully boring, even watching it live. Rude v. Jake going to a 6 hour time limit draw at Mania 4 is worse, though. I'll second the cage match. I went into it with excitement knowing what they were capable of and with the cage stipulation. What I got was 2 guys taking turns running to the cage and getting pulled down. Hart Foundation vs Brain Busters from Summerslam. Harts kick the shit out of the Busters, Busters bail to the outside to regroup. Repeat. People will call me crazy, but Steamboat vs Savage at Wrestlemania 3. Savage tries to end Steamboat's career by crushing his throat with the ring bell and Steamboat gets reveng by...getting a bunch of 2 counts. Not near falls, just plain ol' 2 counts. OMG yes. This a good match... if you ignore the story line. That's why I always say Hogan vs Andre is the BEST match on the WM3 card.

Tony Atlas vs. Ted Arcidi-Boston Garden show from 8/9/1986 on the Network, both guys are moving like they're underwater and Gorilla Monsoon pretty much roasts this match on commentary, it's hilarious. I try not to comment negatively on things because there is usually a great amount of effort even when things don't click but I came in to suggest thus one.

I mean, nobody ever record them since they were only training matches and there weren't ever any main card ones...
Oh, you mean other boring matches and not your own.

NJPW's Fighting Spirit Unleashed at the Hammerstein Ballroom was a very good show even with the technical issues, but the semi-main was a KENTA/YOSHI-HASHI match then went almost half an hour and felt double that. Just pure tedium.
