2. Big Bossman vs. Jim Duggan – Royal Rumble 1990

This match was only six minutes long, but it felt like triple that length due to how slow and boring the first 2/3 of it was. The reason it was so bad was because it was simply…boring.

Wrestling matches are meant to be exciting and filled with drama. This had neither of those things as Bossman dominated the first 2/3 of the match with punches and other strikes that Duggan barely sold. So you had worked punches for the first four minutes of a six-minute match.

After that, Duggan began a very weak comeback sequence that was completely nullified by a disqualification finish that made everything up to that point entirely pointless.

There isn’t much else to say about this nonsense. Duggan wasn’t always the most exciting wrestler on his own, and Big Bossman was a big man that couldn’t be expected to carry a match on his own. It’s almost as if this match was doomed to fail from the beginning.
