10 Most Controversial WWE Ruthless Aggression Storylines
Most controversial storylines in the WWE Ruthless Aggression era
5. Shagged To Death
Late 2002 SmackDown is thought by many to be a golden age for the brand, due to the prevalence of the so-called SmackDown Six, as well as the pushes of young up-and-comers like John Cena and Brock Lesnar, supposedly masterminded by head writer Paul Heyman.
Next to the sports entertainment silliness of Raw, SmackDown was seen as the proper ‘wrestling’ show.
Well, most of the time, anyway. Because around the same time that all that good stuff was happening, one of the main storylines on the show was the affair between and subsequent marriage of Dawn Marie and Torrie Wilson’s father Al.
The former ECW manager became engaged to the naive Al, who looked like he didn’t even know what day of the week it was, then tried to bribe Torrie Wilson by saying she would break it off if Torrie came to her hotel one night for a little bit of “hot lesbian action.”
Torrie did, as seen at Armageddon 2002, but the engagement remained on, and Dawn and Al eventually married in a barmy televised ceremony.
Sadly, Al and Dawn’s marriage came to a premature end, as the old man passed away from a heart attack during the honeymoon, having been, quite literally, shagged to death.
