Top 10 Worst WWE Moments of 2019
2019 was a rollercoaster year for WWE fans. With big events and surprising moments, the world of wrestling delivered its usual mix of drama, excitement, and controversy. But let's be honest: not everything hit the mark. For every unforgettable match or storyline, there were moments that left fans scratching their heads, groaning in frustration, or outright cringing. This list is all about those low points - decisions, matches, and incidents that left you disappointed, annoyed, or even angry at what unfolded in the ring (or behind the scenes).
This match was a disaster from start to finish. Both superstars were in horrible shape, and it really showed why some wrestlers just need to retire and stay retired. The match was filled with so many botches, and both ended up injuring one another.
Originally, the match was supposed to go on much longer, but after seeing how bad the match was going, they decided to end it as quickly as possible to avoid either man suffering any further injuries.
This was full of botches. WWE should never have brought them out of retirement.
Brock did absolutely nothing to deserve winning the Money in the Bank contract. He appeared towards the end of the match when all the other superstars were exhausted. Despite not officially being part of the match from the beginning, he effortlessly claimed victory.
Rather than awarding the MITB contract to a promising up-and-comer, they gave it to a part-timer who lacks enthusiasm for being there and is solely interested in financial gain.
A younger guy should have won the briefcase because that's what this concept is all about. Someone like Drew McIntyre, Ricochet, or Finn Balor. At least seeing Brock with the briefcase was funny, but it's a big missed opportunity.
During the Hall of Fame induction ceremony, Bret Hart was giving his speech when he was jumped by a fan. The feed cut as security and other wrestlers came to Bret's defense and escorted the fan out of the building.
I'm glad that moron got knocked out by Dash Wilder.
After that disaster that was Super Show-Down, why in the world would WWE bring back Goldberg and have him bury Dolph Ziggler at SummerSlam? As if he wasn't already in a huge downward spiral at that point.
Just when you think you've finally seen the last of Brock Lesnar as Universal Champion, they once again make the bonehead move of putting the title back on him yet again.
The first-ever women's WrestleMania main event should have been a great moment, but the match between Ronda Rousey, Becky Lynch, and Charlotte was nowhere near what it should have been. The match was very sloppy, and the crowd didn't seem that invested. You really can't blame them, given how long the show was. They were pretty tired at this point.
The match ended with a botched finish that saw the referee counting Ronda Rousey down despite her shoulder being up, leading to Becky Lynch winning the match. This was the real highlight of the match. The match was definitely nowhere near the level of the Trish Stratus vs. Lita main event from RAW back in 2004.
It wasn't a horrible match by any means, but considering it was the main event, they should have done a lot better. It really didn't help that they over-hyped the match, basically ignoring most of the other matches on the card.
There's really no reason to keep Shane around as an active wrestler in 2019, as he's basically taking up space that could have been given to another superstar.
More like a 51-man over-the-top battle royal. The match was really boring, and it was hard to keep track of what was going on.
The funny thing is that they are not even using the guy who won this Battle Royal.
Kurt Angle deserved better than this. Instead of having Angle wrestle with someone like John Cena as his final match, they had him face off with Baron Corbin and lose.
WWE is literally trying to kill my favorite wrestler's career, which is Seth Rollins. Anyway, this ending seemed rushed. A referee stoppage should not have happened since anything goes in Hell in a Cell matches. However, the point of this match, in my view, was to show The Fiend's power and to get into Seth's head.
Fans, especially on Reddit and Twitter, seemed to overreact to that ending. They can't really accept the fact that Bray's character isn't ready to hold the main championship yet. And, for the most part, Bray is going to SmackDown anyway.
The Newcomers
WWE bringing back the Women's Tag Team titles felt kind of pointless. Ever since reviving the titles back at Elimination Chamber, they've barely done anything with them or given the fans any reason to care about them.
If that's not enough, the IIconics didn't defend the titles much, acting more like a couple of court jesters. No wonder Sasha Banks had to take a hiatus.
Which begs the question: why did they even bother bringing the titles back if they aren't going to do anything with them?
Okay, this was BS. Kingston defeated Randy Orton not once, but twice. However, Kingston loses to Lesnar in 6 seconds. Six seconds. All of this just for us to see a showdown between Lesnar and Velasquez at Crown Jewel. Great job, WWE.
Again? Now that Team Hogan vs. Team Flair is added to the card, I am not watching it!
It's happening again - more "Arab Money" for Vince McMahon! Tsk, tsk.
Those shows are completely pointless.
