5 WWE matches that became famous for all the wrong reasons

Edge battled Alberto Del Rio, in what would later be revealed as the Canadian's last match.

#4. The 2014 WWE Royal Rumble match

A returning Batista won one of the WWE's most controversial matches in recent history.

The Royal Rumble match has been, for years, one of the most exciting matches in the company's year.

Featuring 30 Superstars, the length and unpredictability of the contest is able to get even the most cynical of fans excited.

But in 2014, the company took a sharp nosedive, with some very questionable booking decisions in the men's bout.

We're still trying to decide what was worst: having Batista, who had just returned six days earlier, win the match over several younger stars, or the fact that the most popular star of the time, Daniel Bryan wasn't featured at all.

And when you include the fact that this was the last WWE match of CM Punk, who walked out in frustration after, this is certainly remembered for the wrong reasons.
