Worst in the World: The Last Rites Match-TNA Destination X 2007

(Special thanks to an anonymous user for suggesting this match. If you'd like to see a match covered on the Worst in the World, leave a comment down below.)

An often discussed aspect of professional wrestling is the backstage politicking of Hulk Hogan. Throughout his career as a major attraction in wrestling, Hogan's philosophy has always been to protect Hulk Hogan...OK, sometimes he'd help Ed Leslie, but most of the time it was to protect Hulk Hogan. Because of that philosophy and Hogan's influence as a top guy, there have been multiple instances where a company's booking and other wrestlers have suffered as a result. Would having Mr. Perfect win the 1990 Royal Rumble made sense and could have elevated a rising star and potentially created a new main event player? Yes, but that would require Hogan to not win, and that doesn't work for Hogan, so he wins the Rumble even though he doesn't need elevating. Would booking Randy Orton to beat Hogan at SummerSlam 2006 have elevated Orton and his Legend Killer gimmick, not to mention how it would have made sense for a 53-year-old, part-time wrestler in Hogan to put over someone half his age? Yes, but that doesn't protect Hogan, so Hogan goes over. There's no shortage of stories surrounding this, but if you've ever wondered what the polar opposite of that philosophy is, a good place to look is with Sting.

Unlike Hulk Hogan, Sting's method seems to be going with the flow and doing what creative wanted him to do, regardless of if taking part in it would be damaging to his perception overall. Hell, the only example I can think of Sting going to bat (for lack of a better term) for himself creatively was Starrcade 1997, but even that was in response to another wrestler (unsurprisingly, Hulk Hogan) using his creative control to benefit himself at the cost of the company.As such, Sting has taken part in some truly silly storylines & matches. You want Sting to wrestle in a giant cage with an electric chair in the middle of the ring? No problem. You want him fight in a graveyard or have a match where you have to set your opponent on fire as part of a feud with Vampiro? Absolutely he's in. Want him to start acting & looking like the Joker, essentially taking his gimmick that's look was already based on a comic book character and adding on another comic book character's look? You don't have to ask him twice. You'd be hard-pressed to find another top baby face that has been involved in as many wacky shit as Sting has. Sure, guys like Steve Austin, John Cena, and Hulk Hogan himself have taken part in some outlandish matches & angles from time to time, but nowhere near as often as The Stinger has. And today, we're taking a look at one of those outlandish matches. This is the infamous Last Rites match between Sting and Abyss at TNA's Destination X 2007.

This show takes place right in the middle of what is heavily considered the peak of Total Nonstop Action between 2006 and 2007, far removed from days of The Asylum and the weekly pay-per-views, and before the Main Event Mafia and the arrival of Hulk Hogan & Eric Bischoff dominated the company. Between homegrown talents like AJ Styles and Samoa Joe standing out on their own, to established names like Kurt Angle and Christian Cage thriving, to a strong X-Division featuring guys like Chris Sabin, Christopher Daniels, and Jay Lethal among others, this short period of time in TNA has become one of my favorites. That being said, there was still some wacky shit that seeped through the cracks during this period. Hell, at the very next pay-per-view, Lockdown, there is not one, but two all-time bad TNA gimmick matches in the Blindfold Steel Cage match and the Electrified Steel Cage match (which, trust me, I'll get to that one day.) The Last Rites match might not be quite as infamous as those two matches, but it's still among TNA's most notably bad matches.

Sting & Abyss had been feuding since November the previous year when Abyss won the NWA World Heavyweight Championship from Sting at Genesis (this was a weird DQ finish, but they just gave the title to Abyss anyway.) Following Abyss losing the title to Christian Cage after he wormed his way into the feud, Sting had set out to humanize Abyss and free him from Father James Mitchell's control. This led to TNA delving into the lore of Abyss, as Sting would reveal his real name Chris Parks (a slight deviation from his real name Chris Park), and that he had served six years in prison for shooting his father in the back, sending him into a coma. This led to the much better Prison Yard match at Against All Odds, which Sting would win, but would face off one last time here in the Last Rites match. The match is a casket match, a stipulation that on it's own isn't too detrimental, if not a bit lackluster. But don't you worry, TNA and head writer Vince Russo have an idea that'll make it A LOT dumber.

Abyss is out first with James Mitchell nowhere in sight, and its here we see that one of the ways TNA tried to set the mood for this match was to stick a bunch of plastic candelabras on top of the ring posts.

This is not a decision that inspires a lot of confidence. Sting then makes his entrance, prompting Abyss to exit the ring and start a brawl at ringside. Sting gets the better of the exchange to start, punching & chopping Abyss before slamming his head into the ring steps. Sting then throws Abyss into a guard rail before throwing him back into the ring steps. Sting then sets Abyss against the guard rail and goes for the Stinger Splash, but Abyss dodges it, sending Sting ribs first into the guard rail. I've said this before, but I don't think I've ever seen Sting successfully hit the Stinger Splash to someone against a guardrail. It must have a less than 5% success rate. Abyss grabs a chair and hit Sting across the back before clubbing Sting with punches. Abyss finally rolls Sting into the ring before we get a shot of another way TNA tried to create ambiance for this match; prop tombstones with just "R.I.P" carved into them.

It's like they raided a Spirit Halloween an hour before the show. Abyss whips Sting into the corner and charges at him, but Sting catches him with a boot before going back to the punches and chops. The two then trade counters before Abyss catches Sting on a crossbody attempt, only for Sting to slip out and hit the Scorpion Death Drop. Abyss stumbles into the corner, allowing Sting to hit a Stinger Splash to his back before following up with another to the front. Abyss doesn't abide by the rule of threes, however, and counters a third attempt by Sting when he grabs one of the candelabras and smashes him with it. And even though I made fun of them earlier, the candelabras were apparently good enough props to, unless he pulls off the most seamless blade job of all time, bust Sting open for real.

With Sting down & bloody, Abyss signals to the sky and that's when we get Vince Russo & TNA's spin on the casket match.

The lights turn blue and smoke begins to pour out as a casket is lowered down into the ring on a platform. It reeks of "doing too much", and it's all theatrics that don't actually add to the match. In fact, it actual makes the match worse because now Sting & Abyss have to work in a ring with significantly less room. Unsurprisingly, TNA would switch to the more traditional casket match where the casket is at ringside instead of actually in the ring. As the casket reaches the ground, we get some very clear, very loud, and very deserved "FIRE RUSSO!" chants. It's hard to blame them. Internally, however, the reaction from the company was essentially that they weren't so out of touch, but that the fans were wrong. Reports have come out that TNA management blamed smart mark fans trying to take over the show for the chants, and that Jeff Jarrett & Dutch Mantel were more to blame than Vince Russo. Dixie Carter herself has also pointed the blame at Mantel and said that after hearing the "FIRE RUSSO" chants, she threatened to fire someone the next time she heard them...someone other than Vince Russo. Mantel has since denied that claim. Regardless of who created this match, it's still a terrible creative decision. And there are still six minutes left in this match.

Abyss opens the casket and throws Sting in. He slams one half of the casket shut and goes to close the second half, but Sting pushes back, keeping the lid open before he chops Abyss away. Sting exits the casket and punches Abyss, but Abyss knocks him back down with a big boot. Abyss exits the ring to grab one of the tombstones, carrying it into the ring and setting it up in the corner. Abyss tries to throw Sting into it, but Sting counters, takes him down, and locks in the Scorpion Death Lock. Sting keeps the hold locked in for about 10 seconds as Abyss visually taps out. Sting eventually breaks the hold before the chair and hits Abyss in the head. Sting then places the tombstone in front of Abyss' head before grabbing his signature baseball bat and cracking the tombstone in half with it. Sting drags Abyss into the casket, getting one half shut, but Abyss pushes and keeps the second half open. Sting even tries to lay on the casket lid to shut it, but Abyss powers out. Abyss grabs Sting by the throat and climbs out of the casket, tossing Sting into the corner. Sting fends him off with a back elbow, but Abyss rebounds, grabs Sting by the throat again, and chokeslams him onto the lid, causing the lid to buckle under the weight.  This actually gets the crowd back into the match, with a TNA chant breaking out.

Abyss exits the ring and grabs another chair, sliding it into the ring before bringing another tombstone into the ring. Abyss sets up the two chairs before placing the tombstone across them. Abyss drags Sting over to the corner and sets him on the top rope for a superplex. Sting fights back, however, and grabs one of the candelabras, smashing it across Abyss' back and sending him backwards through the tombstone. Sting quickly drags Abyss over to the casket, tossing him in and closing both halves of the lid for the win. Sting lays on the casket as it's raised back towards the ceiling, giving us this fairly funny visual.

Sting eventually gets off the casket to close out this match.

The Verdict

This is one of those matches where the stipulation & concept of the match is worse than the actual match itself. This is obviously not a very good match, but it's just a pretty lackluster hardcore match with a dumb version of a casket match. Sting & Abyss tried with what they were handed and while I wouldn't recommend watching this (even for a laugh), it's not going too far down the list.

Thanks for reading! Be sure to share if you enjoyed and leave any suggestions for matches you'd like to see covered on the Worst in the World in the comments. In two weeks, I'll be doing a multi-match post and taking a look at a feud from 2018 where WWE seriously damaged the stock of one the best women's wrestlers in the company. Stay tuned.
