#2: Jarrett lies down

WCW may have a mixed history in the annals of the WWE archive, but in 2000, the company was doing bad.

A series of bad booking, egos, and unnecessary gimmick matches had made even the most loyal of fans realise that unless something changed, this company wasn't going to last.

At Bash at the Beach 2000, WCW World Champion Jeff Jarrett met Hulk Hogan, in what many hoped would be an entertaining match. Instead, under the orders of WCW, Jarrett laid down, and a reluctant Hogan 'pinned' him, before complaining about the state of the company.

Things were made worse when Vince Russo appeared, and after talking in length about the Hulkster's ego, swore to God that Hogan would never again appear in WCW.

Within a year, the company was dead, surprising nobody.
