I’m surprised this match wasn’t on the list, maybe because it’s so obvious. I guess you could argue that Elmer wasn’t that mobile at the time and likely much wasn’t expected from the match at the time.

With due respect to your list, as someone that lived through the 1980s and saw 1980s wrestling in WWF/WWE, there was matches that were much worse than the ones on your list ultimate warrior versus André the giant from Saturday nights main event? Try ultimate warrior versus Hercules from wrestlemania four! That match made Andre/Warrior look like Rick steamboat versus Ric Flair!

I remember back in 1986 when the then WWF came to Sydney, Australia. Andre was on the card in the main event against Big John Studd. There was plenty of cheering and excitement about the undercard but when Andre came out it was like a plane taking off. I saw him from about fifteen feet away lumbering down the aisle. He was broken down and way past his prime but it didn't matter. It was that moment that cemented my wrestling obsession.

The worst part of that Piper vs Mr. T match might have been Susan St. James on commentary. Said "commentary" mostly consisted of her uttering inanities like "Oh-oh...look at that... that's not right...", etc. Her flat monotone delivery sounded like an actress from an Ed Wood movie.

"Come on, T!!!" after two lots of "Come on George" "PUT that thing BACK in the BAG!" And the bit where she said if Elizabeth had any taste she's swap Savage for Steele. Even though the storyline was that Savage was abusive and Steele was the only babyface feckless enough to intervene.

If they'd done a drinking game where you take a shot every time she says, "Uh oh," during the Piper vs T bout, even Andre the Giant would be completely shitfaced before the end. Best part of it was when the crowd started chanting, "Roddy! Roddy! Roddy!" You can find clips of it, and it is plain as day. Piper later said that was the first step of his (involuntary) babyface turn. He even threw the stool at Mr T to try to get the crowd to turn against him, but they were having none of it. He loved being a heel, but said the fans forced his babyface turn.

Calling Andre matches in the 80's terrible is just as bad as calling WWE Great Khali matches terrible. When the performer can barely muster the energy to function because their body is beyond destroyed, is like saying a footballer with a broken leg is doing a terrible job kicking a ball down the field.

The Jake, the snake and Rick rude match was just fine you see back then wrestling fans were entertained by watching guys put each other in wrestling holds so when they do a spot that centers around reversing a wrist lock and it goes on for five minutes today's audience just doesn't have the attention span. The wrestling fans aren't interested in watching wrestling they wanna watch gymnastics. The guys have to be running back-and-forth and jumping over each other in order for today's fans to appreciate it. back then the guys would tell a story in the ring and putting a guy in a wrist lock and having him try to reverse out of it could go on for a full five minutes and it was entertaining to the crowd because they were actually involved in watching the match for it being a wrestling match it wasn't like watching a monster truck show they legitimately wanted to see if Rick Rude could beat Jake the snake, they were emotionally invested in it. It wasn't just a gymnastics, spectacle or stunt show.

Seeing the pict I re of Andre vs Warrior with the headline reminds me of when my dad took me to a house match in Anchorage Alaska in 90 or 91. It was Andre vs Warrior then. Was the main event and as a young fan was so excited. Little did I know how it would be anyth7ng by the end. It was a 20 second match if I remember with Warrior running in, clotheslining Andre against the rope and then running back out and chasing Heenan back to the dressing room era. Knowing what I do now, I understand this was towards the end of Amdres career and Warrior was pretty much known for squash and short matches in that day. With all that said, I do wish it would have been a different main event or different opponent for Andre.

Idgaf what they changed the name to. When I was a KID it was WWF. World Wrestling Federation. I understand why they changed the name and I refer to the company as it's current name, WWE. But we're talking about the WWF. 🙄😒🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

"Steele is out of shape and can barely move..." Let's ask some players from the Madison Heights football eam how 'out of shape' Ron Myers was. According to his players the man could reportedly bench press 400 lbs with ease.

What about the Powers of Pain's dark match WWF debut where they no sell for Demolition who run away with their tails between their legs and get counted out? IT totally betrays everything Demolition were about while failing to build up the Powers as the new two-man Hulk Hogan. In the end the two teams did the Survivor Series double turn,

I was expecting a smarky list, but this is fair enough. A few wasted opportunities (Rude v Roberts, Piper v T, Hogan v Andre II) and a bunch of card-fillers. But they weren't really "offensive" though, just below-average in terms of story at a time when workrate meant nothing to the millions of fans watching. The actual shame was indeed wasting the Hogan v Andre rematch in that ill-conceived tournament.

The 1980s: Hulk Hogan sucked, he had the same boring match for his entire WWF title title run. Ric Flair had the same match too but at least it was more technical and it was 30-60 minutes not 10 to 15 minutes. And of course let's not forget Dusty trying to convince the marks that his obscene obesity was athleticism...lol

The dirtsheet crowd were ganiing traction and they prided themselves on their contempt for serious clean wrestling. They hated Bob Backlund and thought his push was a crime against Smartness, especially since the flamboyant performer (but HORRID worker) Superstar Graham had his run cut short for Backlund.
