5 Best fails on WWE Live TV
Botchamania. As an ardent fan of the art that is professional wrestling, maybe you have heard of this word. A botch in wrestling terminology means when a move in a match or a line in a promo or a moment in an entrance does not go on according to plan due to, well, mistakes. Botching a wrestling move may be dangerous but botching a line or a word in a promo is just priceless. It’s as funny it can get in the WWE. Also, embarrassing sometimes.
Throughout the years, there have been many epic fails when it comes to creating such a blooper reel. This may well be the best part and the bane of executing a show on live television.
There are some who have done it more than once. It’s hilarious and all of us, including them, know it. Here are the 5 WWE Live TV fails:
Wrestlemania Moment
Hulk Hogan created a Wrestlemania moment which wasn’t at all planned. Hogan made his entrance as the host of Wrestlemania 30 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.
That Wrestlemania will be remembered for a Once In A Lifetime moment with Hogan, Austin and Rock being in the same ring, Undertaker losing his streak and Bryan main eventing Wrestlemania and winning it.
It will also be remembered for the first few words spoken by Hogan.
Hogan went back in time and addressed the Superdome as the ‘Silverdome’- the arena for Wrestlemania 3. The audience chanted the actual name and then Hogan hilariously realized his mistake and corrected it. Hogan became a classic face for Botchamania.
Genesis of Mcgillicutty
Whoever came up with this last name needs to be asked what they were smoking. It was difficult to pronounce as it is. The man has been repackaged as Curtis Axel and he tried to make Axelmania run wild.
But when he was on NXT, back when it was a contest show, he had the chance to cut a promo. It was hilarious as he spent so much time trying to describe a moment, paraphrasing it at least 3 times.
Just watch the video.
