Line 36:
* erics: At TNA's ''Against All Odds'' '12, Jesse Sorenson accidentally takes a knee to the top of the skull, temporarily paralyzing him and almost killing him. The very next night on Raw, in order to help [[John Cena]] get over even more, Kane throws an already "injured" [[Zack Ryder]] off the stage, "paralyzing" him.
* Tropers/Das Nordlicht 91: At ''[[Wrestlemania]] XXVIII'', [[Daniel Bryan]] vs. [[Sheamus]] for the World Heavyweight Championship opened the show. You would expect a back-and-forth and hard-fought match to get the crowd going for what could be one of the best [[Wrestlemania]] events in recent memory, right? {{spoiler|1=Nope. Sheamus squashes Bryan in 18 seconds flat with one Brogue Kick to become the new WHC. I mean, wow. You've got two guys who were bumped off WM27 the year prior in a big title match, and it ends in eighteen fucking seconds. Wow.}}
* Tropers/Renelia: Going back in time, it has to be TheInvasion and what went wrong. It was supposed to be the biggest angle in (then) [[WWEWorld Wrestling Entertainment|WWF]] history. Now, I understand that some of the wrestlers they couldn't get a hold of because of contractual issues. The main problem was that it had a lot of potential and it ended up [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot|utterly wasted]] because of unknown reasons. What causes this to be even worse: the wrestlers that were "too expensive", with the exception of Sting, ended up wrestling in the WWF/WWE in the (then) near-future! However, what made this a real wall banger: The so-called WWF vs. WCW battle royal match in November 2001...the last two wrestlers were from the WWF during the Attitude Era. It may have been a deliberate plot for WWF to screw over what was left of WCW, but the entire angle was poorly planned and it's no wonder why it's remembered as one of the [[So Bad It's Horrible/WWE|worst angles in WWE history.]]
* KantonKage: [[John Laurinaitis]] defeating [[John Cena]] at Over The Limit 2012. Didn't make sense in any way possible. [[The Big Show]] comes out and when you think he's out for revenge after being humilated and reduced to tears. Nope, he goes and WMD'd Cena and Laurinaitis still has a job. And in the words of [[John Cena]] '''[[You Have Got to Be Kidding Me!|What The Hell]]!!!'''
 
Line 49:
* SNL95: The whole TNA World Heavyweight Title drama leading up to, during and after Bound For Glory 2011 is one massive DMOS for the company. First some background, in the lead up to Bound For Glory (read 5 months before hand) TNA started doing a "Bound For Glory Series" which was a round robin style tournament where the winner would get a TNA title shot at Bound for Glory. The series itself was a mess, nobody understood the points system, it was continued through house shows leaving many viewers hopelessly confused about the standings which would change on a whim. Points were won through the most ridiculous means and Crimson, the guy who was at the top of the series, was injured forcing TNA to give Robert Roode the series victory. Despite this fans were happy for Roode and after he wins he gets a huge buildup going into Bound For Glory making people sure he would beat [[Kurt Angle]] for the title. However Roode loses the match in a screwjob finish which was a blatant ripoff of the Summerslam 2011 ending (Angle pinned Roode while Roode was touching the ropes) and despite the fact that Kurt injured his hamstring and could barely wrestle a match. It was later revealed that [[Hulk Hogan]], who buried Roode in a shoot interview before the show, got the match result changed because he felt Roode wasn't ready to hold the title. So already Hulk blatantly screws over young talent because of his own opinion, not the opinion of the fans who were almost completely behind Roode to make his face turn the highlight of the show instead of Roode's victory. Then on the next Impact taping James Storm, Roode's tag team partner, squashes Angle for the belt despite having no buildup and there being no reason for his victory other than the fact that Hogan wanted it. The question here is: Why didn't TNA build up Storm in the first place? Fans were pissed because there was literally nothing stopping them from building up Storm over Roode. Instead TNA wasted months of storyline, screwed over a young talent before he got his chance, created a contrived author saving throw that pissed off several TNA "fans" and showed how terrible their bookers actually are. Good job TNA, good fucking job.
* [[The Notorious AMP]] It gets even worse, my [[The C Show]] friend, during the next tapings they have Roode wrestle Storm where he ends up turning heel by hitting storm with a beer bottle. Which he follows by spitting on storm and then standing on him, declaring that he felt great after having betrayed his "brother" of 4 years. Note, this would not be a bad storyline if played out over a series of months, but it was so compressed it just sucked the potential out of it.
