10 Infamous Pro Wrestling Squash Matches
Not every squash match is forgettable
8. Daniel Bryan vs. Sheamus
Daniel Bryan and Sheamus had to have been disappointed that their United States Title lumberjack match was shunted onto the WrestleMania 27 pre-show.
Even more disappointingly, they were only given a shade over four minutes and it ended in a no contest.
Thankfully, they would be given the opportunity to run it back a year later on the main card, with 2012 Royal Rumble winner Sheamus challenging for Bryan’s World Heavyweight Title.
But rather than the pace-setting banger of an opener we were all expecting, D-Bry instead dropped the gold to the Celtic Warrior after just 28 seconds, courtesy of a single Brogue Kick following a kiss from AJ Lee.
It did get people talking and, it could be argued, was the spark that led to the groundswell of support that birthed the YES Movement, but at the time it was a seriously contentious decision and it remains an infamous squash match.
