It's been almost a year since I covered the infamous Hell in a Cell match between Seth Rollins and "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt . In that review, I called the booking terrible, specifically in regards to how negatively this could've affected The Fiend, who was arguably the hottest act going in WWE at the time. Thankfully, this disaster of a match didn't kill The Fiend, as he eventually won the Universal Championship at Crown Jewel that same year. The borderline character assassination attempt failed. But of course, this is the WWE. They have a knack for fucking things up one way or another. That brings us to Super ShowDown 2020. After his disaster of a match at the last Super ShowDown , Goldberg had returned to the ring and somewhat redeemed himself with a fun match at SummerSlam against Dolph Ziggler. Goldberg then set his sights on getting the Universal Championship rematch he never got. A simple story that would be a huge win for Bray Wyatt. Beating a WWE Hall of Fam...

Source: Cageside Seats Oh Lars, where did it all go wrong?... Source: Queerty Yeah, that'll do it. The WWE career of Lars Sullivan was quite the messy, messy journey. After a fairly solid stint in NXT which included his participation in the 5-star ladder match for the North American Championship (Daniel Bryan and Cesaro have never got a 5-star rating in WWE from Dave Meltzer, but LARS SULLIVAN has...wild), Sullivan got the call up to the main roster and was set to debut in January...except he didn't due to an anxiety attack. He'd eventually debut the night after WrestleMania 35, attacking the recently retired Kurt Angle, and looked set to receive a monster push. That was before things got really ugly. Four months after his debut, Sullivan's past activities on a Bodybuilding.com forum ( compiled here in a Reddit post. Fair warning, it's not pleasant) came to light. And needless to say, Sullivan wasn't using the forum to debate how many days there are in a week ....

Anyone who's kept up with this series long enough knows that I usually wait until after a match wins Worst Match of the Year in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter Awards. However, the reaction to this match was so negative when it happened (and the fact that someone commented on my last Worst in the World saying this match should be next) I figured there's no point in waiting until almost a year to get this out there. So here it is; the Undertaker vs Goldberg from Super Showdown 2019. Despite the fact that both men were over 50 at the time and that neither had wrestled in over seven months (Goldberg having not wrestled in two years), WWE trotted them out in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia for their third show as part of their 10-year blood money  deal with the country's General Sports Authority. What resulted was a match so bad that Goldberg felt like he had to apologize for his performance afterward. But with that all out of the way, let's get to it. So, just like at Crown J...
