#2 Finlay & Hornswoggle vs. Boogeyman & Little Boogeyman

Poor Finlay. He was known as one of the toughest men in wrestling at one point, and was well-respected for his dedication to his craft and being a good worker. Alas, here he was stuck working in an awful gimmick match that involved two gimmick wrestlers and the Boogeyman. As you can imagine, this was awful.

Instead of having a competitive match, the bulk of it saw Finlay beating up Little Boogeyman. Yes, a fully-grown man beating up a little person with his shillelagh. Worse, this little person actually got some offence in and got a near-fall on Finlay with a small package (insert joke here). Had Finlay actually lost there, I’m certain he would’ve quit the wrestling business right away.

A WWE Hall of Famer isn't a John Cena fan. More details HERE

As for the regular Boogeyman, his offence was poor and boring, and he spent more time chasing Hornswoggle (then known as The Little Bastard) before Finlay pinned the diminutive Boogeyman.

It was corny and boring. Now, sometimes this sort of wrestling can be entertaining, but this wasn’t one of those cases. There was too much slapstick without much thought put into it, leaving us with a disappointing affair that left possibly everyone disappointed.
