5 Worst Wrestling Matches Of 2013

#1 Women’s Survivor Series Elimination Tag Team Match

This match marked the nadir of the Divas Division during the early 2010s. This was a match with fourteen women split into two teams of seven. The match went just over eleven minutes in length, yet it featured twelve eliminations in that timeframe. That averages out to about one elimination every fifty seconds.

This shows how little WWE cared about the women…sorry, back then they were known as Divas…as performers. Few of them were credible wrestlers, and most of them came from backgrounds that helped them learn how to be wrestlers.

Because of these different factors, this match came off as the perfect ‘bathroom break’ match. Nothing special happened in it. Eliminations came and went without any concept of ‘heat’ or in-ring storytelling, which left viewers asking themselves, ‘that’s it?’ As a perfect example, Aksana, one of the less-skilled women in the match, entered, hit moves and ate a pin all in the span of thirty seconds.

You can’t pack so much nonsense into a short period of time and expect people to care about it. Without background stories, fans won’t care. And without anyone to really cheer for, fans will just ignore matches like this one and sit quietly. It really can’t get any worse than that.
