The idea of this thread just came to me, thanks to my remembrance of the whole "Vince's Limo Explodes" angle that happened a few years back. The fact that he returned within a month of that happening, just fine, was ridiculous and poorly thought out. Even though the Benoit Tragedy did happen shortly after that, once you do something like that, you need to commit to it. At least, that's the way I see it. It may have seemed tasteless at the time to keep an angle like that going considering the real life circumstances, but the way they did it made the angle look both tasteless and nonsensical.
So, the idea is to just list a few angles and event that have happened in the history of wrestling that you saw as illogical or just downright ridiculous.
Of course I've already mentioned the McMahon-Limo situation. Something down that alley would also be the hanging of The Big Bossman back at WrestleMania 2000. It was Undertaker vs. Big Bossman in a hell in a cell match, in the heat of the Ministry of Darkness vs. Corporation feud and after Taker had defeated Bossman, the Brood came down from the ceiling, dropped a noose in, and the Ministry hung The Big Bossman from the cell, live on PPV.
Not only was that extremely dangerous but do you wanna know what happened about two weeks later?
The Big Bossman came back, unphased. For God's sake, at least show him at some point before his return, proving that he is indeed alive. Maybe do a hospital angle where he's in a coma or in the ICU, show us that he's not dead before we just spot him standing next to The McMahons a few Raw's later! As if nothing even happened...
So that's my first one. I'll think of some more later, but what are some of the more seneseless things you can remember throughout wrestling history?
