10 Huge WWE Upset Wins That Led To Nothing

10 upset wins in WWE that led to absolutely nothing

1. Fandango def. Chris Jericho - WrestleMania 29

In 2013, the ballroom dance-loving Fandango not only made his in-ring main roster debut, but he did so at WrestleMania 29 in a match against Chris Jericho. And guess what? He bloody won. 

In the upset to end all upsets, this rookie with a gimmick that would have been considered corny in 1995 pinned one of the greatest wrestlers to ever lace up a pair of boots at WWE’s flagship show. Surely WWE had to have massive plans for this guy, right?

One month on from this unprecedented moment, Fandango and Jericho had another match at Extreme Rules, which Y2J won. 

He wouldn’t get another pay-per-view win until October’s Hell in a Cell, where he and Summer Rae took on The Great Khali and Natalya in a cursed mixed tag, and by WrestleMania 30, one year on from his mind-blowing debut, he was a bit player in the Andre Battle Royal.

In terms of a start to your televised WWE career, you literally couldn’t ask for much more than Fandango got. And yet, somehow, some way, they managed to flush it all down the drain within the space of 12 months.
