10 Worst WWE Pay-Per-Views Ever

9. Backlash 2018

Backlash 2018 started off promisingly enough and then completely fell off a cliff, never to recover. 

Kicking things off was Seth Rollins retaining his Intercontinental Title over The Miz in a twenty-minute, false finish filled blinder that nothing else on the show came close to touching. 

Nia Jax then retained the Raw Women's Title over Alexa Bliss in a match that cooled things down, though it was OK. 

Jeff Hardy and Randy Orton didn't have much of a reason to be fighting over the United States Championship on pay-per-view, and the Viper showed just how little he could be bothered with the whole thing by putting in a half-arsed performance and helping produce a dull match. 

Things obviously didn't get better with a pointless segment featuring Elias, Aiden English, Rusev, New Day, Breezango, Titus Worldwide, No Way Jose and Bobby Roode. 

I get that you want to give the lads stuck in catering half the time something to do, but really? 

Daniel Bryan tried to get something out of Big Cass in the next match, but no dice. It was about as weak a D-Bry pay-per-view match as you will ever see (his first singles one in several years no less), as it was clear the Big Cass experiment wasn't working. 

Carmella retained her SmackDown Women's Title over Charlotte Flair in a boring match with a weak finish. 

Speaking of weak finishes, how about AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura's No Disqualification WWE Title scrap going to a draw? The action was good (not as great as you'd expect) and had crowd heat, but the ending really put a dampener on things. 

The less said about the then red-hot Braun Strowman and Bobby Lashley's victory over Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, the better. Just a total mess on almost every level. 

And in the supposed main event, Roman Reigns beat Samoa Joe in an interminable match that had no business headlining and literally bored the crowd out of the building, as many fans chose to exit the arena while the bout was in progress.
