#7 Jeff Jarrett lays down for Hulk Hogan at Bash at the Beach
Vince Russo rears his ugly, conceited head one more time on our list as we recall the deplorable incident at WCW's Bash at the Beach in 2000.
Russo was famous for the fact that he really disliked the fact that many of the WCW's major talents had a creative control clause in their contracts. This meant that, for example, Hulk Hogan could decide when and if he was going to lose on any particular night. When Hulk Hogan asserted his creative control clause and refused to let Jeff Jarrett, the current WCW champion, beat him, Vince Russo made an extraordinary decision whose effects are still felt today.
Going against a scripted finish of Hogan winning the title after a grueling match, Russo ordered Jarrett to lay down for Hogan. The Hulkster was visibly confused and upset but eventually pinned Jarrett. Russo would then berate Hogan on the microphone and promised the audience they would never have to see him again.
The fourth wall-breaking moment led to Hogan's immediate departure from the company and made fans so angry WCW hastily put together another match featuring Jarrett vs. Booker T for the title, which Booker won.
