If you were to make the case for the most recent edition of Tough Enough being awful, ZZ would probably be exhibit A. Despite being out of shape, having zero in ring skills, and was being a poor wrestling trainee in general, ZZ managed to make it to the final two, beating out much more talented rookies like Patrick, Mada, and Tanner. Even though he didn't win, he managed to grab a contract, most likely due to his popularity with the fans. And five months after he signed his contract, he made his debut at a NXT live event in Orlando. How did it go? I'll let his opponent Christopher Girard (better known as Biff Busick) tell you how the match went. From the Twitter of Christopher Girard (@_StarDESTROYER): "ZZ is hands down the very worst competitor I've ever been in a ring with. Yes, even worse than Mojo Rawley" Amazing. Well, all I can really say is best of luck in your future endeavors, Christopher Girard. 

Remember when I reviewed The Total Divas vs Other Divas from Survivor Series 2013. The match that wasn't very good, but definitely wasn't the worst of the year like Wrestling Observer Newsletter said it was. And believe me, it could have been MUCH worse. Case and point: The Divas match from Survivor Series 1999. In an eight women (thankfully NOT elimination) tag match, the team of Ivory, Luna Vachon, Jacqueline, and Terri Runnels took on the team of Tori, Debra, Mae Young, and the Fabulous Moolah....in 1999. Yeah, Mae Young and Fabulous Moolah, both of which were in their mid-70s at the time. And not only that, that team consists of ONE real wrestler in Tori. Young & Moolah are basically comedy acts at this point, and Debra is a valet, not a wrestler. The team they're facing is almost all wrestlers (sorry Terri... not really ). How does this match go? It's the WWF, how else would a team of non-wrestlers do against a team of wrestlers. Right off the bat, Jerry L...

WrestleMania is right around the corner, Maggle! In only 10 days, WrestleMania 32 will emanate from Cowboys Stadium, Dean Ambrose & Brock Lesnar will probably have a brutal street fight, Shane McMahon will probably main event, and Roman Reigns will probably get booed out of the building for the second year in a row. And while seeing the inevitable Reigns victory will suck (and with no briefcase to save us this year) this might be rough. But even most people don't like Roman Reigns, his match with Triple H will more than likely be good. Unlike this one. At WrestleMania VIII, Tag Team Champions Money Inc. (Ted Dibiase & IRS) defended their belts against The Natural Disasters Earthquake & The Shockmaster  Typhoon. That's pretty ironic, because this match is a disaster (*self-high fives for excellent pun*). Money Inc. starts tagging each other in to toy with Earthquake, ending with Dibiase in with the Quake. Earthquake over powers Dibiase to start, and runs wild o...

I can't believe I'm 37 entries into Worst in the World and this is only the first time The Great Khali has shown up. Standing at 7'1 and debuting in WWE in 2006, Khali was booked as an unstoppable monster squashing the likes of then-World Heavyweight Champion Rey Mysterio and even the Undertaker. The only problem was that Khali was about as mobile as a brick, horribly uncoordinated, and couldn't cut a promo to save his life. Eventually, Khali became a comic relief character and pretty much stayed that way until his release in 2014, ending his 8-year run in the company. He is now seen as a blight on WWE history and is often considered one of the worst professional wrestlers of all time. Despite that status, that didn't stop WWE from pushing him as a main eventer, challenging John Cena & Triple H for the WWE Championship on separate occasions and even WINNING THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP! You might think I'm kidding, but I'm not. Here it is on his...

Elias Sampson vs Johnny Gargano- I'm going to be completely honest, I skipped the majority of this match because: A. F*ck the Drifter B. I don't want to see the Drifter beat Johnny Gargano... BUT HE DIDN'T!  GARGANO REVERSED A HIGH KNEE INTO A ROLL UP FOR THE WIN! YES! YES! YES! F*CK THE DRIFTER! THIS IS JUST LIKE WRESTLEMANIA 30 WITH DANIEL BRYAN WINNING THE WWE CHAMPIONSHIP! Sorry, got a little carried away there, back to what happened. Drifter beats down Gargano afterwards, hits a swinging neckbreaker, and tosses him to the outside. He hits his big high knee, and calls for his swinging neckbreaker again on the entrance ramp, but Apollo Crews makes the save. By the way, f*ck the Drifter. Rich Swann vs Finn Balor- Match kicks off with Balor taking advantage with a headlock takedown. Swann breaks the hold, but quickly gets an wrist lock. Balor continues with holds, even holding onto a wristlock out of a monkey flip, and switches to a headlock. Swann escapes...

I though I'd seen the last of Dave Sullivan. I was wrong. The guy who, last time he showed up in this series, I called "one of the worst wrestlers of all time" is back as "The Equalizer" an facing Jungle Jim Steele. I know nothing about him, but he looks like a Jimmy Snuka knock-off: Also, they spelt Steele's name wrong on the name plate The match kicks off arm drags by Steele, but Equalizer takes control with forearm (which look a lot better than last time) and throws Steele's head into the turnbuckle. Steele blocks a second one, does a few himself, and locks in a wristlock, only for Equalizer to reverse and lock in his own. Steele escapes the lock with a monkey flip and hits a dropkick, but gets tossed away going for a second monkey flip in the corner. Equalizer beats down Steele, even hitting a Hogan leg drop, before tossing Steele to the outside. Equalizer continues to beat up Steele, barely avoiding getting pinned with a crucifix, and thr...

Welp...Rick Rude is back. He couldn't even stay away for one entry. This time, he goes up against Masahiro Chono, who is defending the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. And to top it off, this match features both Harley Race and Kensuke Sasaki as special guest referees, and features Madusa in Rude's corner. I don't know about you, but this seems to have "bullsh*t" written all over it. There's not much more to say, so let's get into this. The two lock up to start the match, with Rude forcing Chono into the corner and breaking the hold. They repeat the spot before Rude starts clubbing away on Chono, which goes on for a while before Chono hits a hip toss. Rude slaps on a headlock, which he holds for a while until Chono hits a side suplex. The two exchange hammer locks, followed by a face lock by Chono and Rude going back to clubbing away on Chono. This might not sound too bad, but this is five minutes into the match and this is all I've got to writ...
