#4 Live Free or Die Concrete Crypt Match

The concrete crypt match was not The Undertaker's finest hour

The Great American Bash 2004 is widely considered to be one of the worst WWE PPVs of the 21st century.

Not only did the event see JBL defeat Eddie Guerrero to become the new WWE champion but it also featured one of the most ludicrous main events in the company's history.

The Undertaker took on The Dudley Boyz in a handicap concrete crypt match, which saw Paul Bearer positioned on the entrance in a glass tank hooked up to a concrete mixer. The stipulation was simple, if The Dudleys won the match, then Bearer would be buried in concrete and killed on live television. The Undertaker won the match, but decided to go ahead and kill Paul Bearer anyway.

The whole thing was utterly preposterous and thankfully, we have never been treated to a match like this again.
