This week in WWE history - (Nov 22-28) - Unexpected Money in the Bank cash-in; controversial superstar fired

#2. The Original WWE Screwjob - November 25th 1985

WWE obviously likes screwjobs in November. Not only did the famous Montreal Screwjob take place at the beginning of the month, but Wendi Richter was also screwed over by the company in the same month just 17 years earlier.

Wendi Richter was set to wrestle Spider Lady for the WWF Women's Championship as part of a show that was live from Madison Square Garden.

Whilst the match went ahead, it was The Fabulous Moolah who was disguised as Spider Lady and mid-way through the match she got Richter in a Small Package. Despite kicking out of the pin, the referee counted the three and the title changed hands.

It was only after the match that Richter realised that it was Moolah who went on to attack her. She then left the arena and refused to make her return to the company. Moolah and Richter never spoke again, and Richter only returned to WWE to be added to the Hall of Fame in 2010, almost two decades later.
