Worst Mistakes Ever Made by WWE

The Top Ten
1 Ending Undertaker's Streak

On WrestleMania 30, Brock Lesnar broke the Undefeated streak turning it into 21-1

2 Firing CM Punk

After getting fired, Punk showed the courage to fight in the UFC (Remember UFC fights are real, not scripted) without any formal background in MMA. Sadly, he lost both of his UFC fights and his MMA career turned into a disappointment.

3 Pushing Roman Reigns to the Top

WWE has attempted to establish Reigns as their next "Babyface" with him main-eventing Wrestlemanias continuously from 2015-18. Despite getting booed all 4 times, WWE still pushed him to the top with him finally winning the Universal title in 2018.

4 Turning Into PG

Ever since 2008, WWE has turned into a Kid-Friendly show. I miss the old hardcore days of Attitude Era and Ruthless Aggression Era.

After 15 years of watching and loving the WWE it was THIS that made me stop watching! WWE turned too crap when it turned PG!

5 Turning Talented Wrestlers Into Jobbers

Rey Mysterio, Kane, Bigshow, Chris Jericho, Christian, Great Khali, Mark Henry, Sheamus and many others have fallen victim to this.

6 Putting Charlotte Above Every Other Woman on the Roster
7 Over-Using John Cena's Babyface Character

He has portrayed a heroic character throughout his career, with a short exception of 2002-2003. Considering how talented he is as a wrestler and also in portraying a character, I would like him to play "Villain" once every while.

8 Continuing to Have The Crown Jewel PPV in Saudi Arabia

Holy crap this needs to be higher, WWE continuing to support a dictator is not good for your image

9 Banning Chair Shots to the Head

This was a regular scene from Attitude Era. I understand they banned this for the safety of wrestlers, but I have to admit, those were very entertaining

Yeah I love them like the next guy, but, concussions, injuries to skull/neck, Chris Benoit...

Thanks, pg era.

10 Making Brock Lesnar's Matches Formulaic and One-Sided
The Contenders
11 Making Samoa Joe Weak

Give it time. They can't push every wrestler to the top. If they gave everyone a title, it would just wouldn't feel special anymore. Plus, throwing a title around between wrestlers like a hot potato just makes it feels worthless, just look at the US Title.

12 Retired and Old Wrestlers Main-Eventing Pay Per Views

It depends how they do it, if it is a main event like Royal Rumble or an elimination chamber they are wonderful. but if they are tag team match or singles match it shouldn't be done unless it is a nostalgia match similar to the Edge/Hulk tag team., though I don't think if you are going to bring them back they should win it should purely just be fan service (have them show up do some cool things in the ring and have them eliminated).

13 Brock Lesnar defeats Kofi Kingston
14 Over Emphasis of the Women's Division

And...the problem? They've had great matches since the Evolution ' started. Hell better than the men half the time

15 Burying the Nexus

And Wade Barrett in general. They really had something with him and that stable, and Cena's gotta Cena. Even he realises it was a mistake.

Meh. Honestly, aside from Wade Barrett, Ryback and Justin Gabriel, the other members of the Nexus just sucked.

16 Goldberg vs Lesnar only lasted for a minute and 26 seconds

There's nothing wrong with the match they had at Survivor Series (or any other match they had) Goldberg became popular in WCW because of matches like this one. Their feud will be considered a classic in a few years.

Goldberg vs Brock Lesnar (Survivor Series 2016)
This was Goldberg's returning match after 12 yrs of absence from WWE.
