30 Biggest WWE botches of 2017

#26 Not enough rotation on the East River Crossing

The WWE landscape was way different at the start of January 2017. Jinder Mahal was merely the lackey to Rusev, Big Cass was primed for a big push, and Shawn Michaels was randomly around. The Heartbreak Kid gave The Bulgarian Brute a superkick, distracting his buddy during his match.

Michaels’ actions on the outside set up Cass for the East River Crossing, followed by the Empire Elbow for the victory. The first move in this sequence was clearly botched but still enough to put away the future WWE Champion.
