4 Hilarious Botches You Probably Might Have Missed At WWE Extreme Rules 2019
WWE Extreme Rules 2019 is in the history books and the show was certainly memorable to say the least.
In the main event, Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch were once again able to retain their titles against the
formidable tag team of Baron Corbin and Lacey Evans, though only The
Man escaped the Wells Fargo Centre as champion.
Rollins was not so lucky, as after months of wondering, Brock Lesnar finally cashed in his Money in the Bank
contract, demolishing the Beast slayer in seconds to win the red title for the third time in his career.
Though Extreme Rules didn’t exactly go the way Rollins had planned, he wasn’t the only one to suffer
tragedy as there were some clear botches throughout the evening.
Here are four botches that took place during WWE Extreme Rules.
#4: Beth Phoenix forgets the Big Dog
In 2019, Roman Reigns is one of WWE’s biggest stars, being a former WWE Champion, tag team champion, Universal
Champion, Intercontinental Champion, United States Champion and Royal Rumble winner.
Main eventing WrestleMania on multiple occasions, it’s hard for WWE fans to go anywhere online without seeing
the Big Dog’s face, as Reigns has seemingly filled the face of the company role once held by John Cena.
Though fans may not enjoy this over exposure to the Samoan Superstar, one person who somehow was able to
forget Reigns was WWE Hall of Famer Beth Phoenix, who had quite the botch on the pre-show.
Speaking about Reigns tag team with The Undertaker on the pre-show, the Glamzon referred to him as the quote
“Big Dog Rollins” confusing the leader of the Roman Empire with his Shield- brother Seth Rollins.
Though Beth was quick to fix her mistake, the damage had already been done, and hopefully the former Women’s
Champion will be able to avoid the same mistake in the future.
#3: Lashley trips
After being speared through the Monday Night RAW stage a few weeks ago by Braun Strowman, Bobby Lashley was
hungry for revenge last night, when he met the Monster Among Men in a last man standing match.
The match, which eventually saw Strowman be the last man standing, was a physical contest to say the least
as both men battled both in and out of the ring.
During the match, the Destroyer tried to springboard himself off the barricade onto Strowman,
an impressive feat, if it had gone correctly.
Instead, Lashley fell after running up to launch himself off the barricade, barely hitting Strowman,
recovered the spot by quickly throwing the former Intercontinental Champion into the arena wall.
Though Strowman did his best to save the spot, it was clear to everyone this wasn’t the plan
as the Destroyer now knows to look before you leap.
#2: Finn Balor comes up short
On the WWE Extreme Rules kick-off show, Finn Balor defended his Intercontinental Title against
Shinsuke Nakamura in what many would have cited as a dream match.
Despite being announced for the show just a few hours earlier, both men delivered with the pace
of the match going back and forth before it was Nakamura who got the advantage,
defeating the leader of the Balor club to become the new Intercontinental Champion.
Whilst the match was a great bout, even these two professionals weren’t botch free,
as both men had a few bad moments during the match.
At one point, Balor would attempt his signature over head kick to the King of Strong Style,
which would barely tap Nakamura, who still sold the move.
It may not have been a big botch like some of the others on this list, but when you factor in how gifted both Balor
and Nakamura are, this little mistake did stand out in what was an epic match.
#1: The Undertaker shows his age again
The Undertaker has been a consistent presence in WWE for nearly 30 years and has battled
some of the all-time greats over his career.
Toppling stars like Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Batista and CM Punk to win World titles, the Phenom is
clearly a legend, but in recent years has shown his age in the ring.
Perhaps this is why the 54 year old legend was booked to open last night’s show, which saw him and Roman Reigns
topple Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre in a vicious No Holds Barred match.
Though the Demon of Death Valley seemed to do much better in the match than his prior performance at Super
Show Down against Goldberg, even this match wasn’t botch free.
At one moment in the match, Roman would launch Shane into the Undertaker,
who would attempt to pick him up for the Tombstone, only to put him down again.
From the angle of the move, it seems that the Deadman had misjudged
Shane’s momentum, though the Undertaker would eventually hit the Tombstone
on the son of the Chairman to get another huge win.
