#4) Heath Slater vs. Curt Hawkins – 2 mins 10 secs
In 2016 Heath Slater was a champion in WWE, which was a huge achievement given that the WWE Universe didn’t expect him to rise above the status of a ‘jobber’. In 2017, however, things took a turn for the worse as Slater was featured in a pay per view match at Great Balls of Fire that re-defined the meaning of the word ‘pointless’.
We barely got to see any of the in-ring action because of what was happening with Braun Strowman backstage, and if we were Slater or Hawkins, we’d be a little bit insulted by that. Obviously, the outcome of the match wasn’t likely to impact any storylines moving forward, but it’s always nice to see underutilised talent being showcased on the PPV stage.
