5 Weirdest Challenges WWE Superstars Have Taken Part In During Feuds
Basketball, axe throwing and a... a "Redneck Triathlon" anyone?
1. A Redneck Triathalon
In 2003 (which appears to be the spiritual home of wacky games in lieu of actual wrestling), Stone Cold Steve Austin and Eric Bischoff engaged in a medley of time-wasters at the Bad Blood pay-per-view. Since Austin could no longer wrestle, this was the next best(?) thing.
It began with a badly dubbed belching contest, followed by a pie-eating contest (the mere visual of which is equivalent to watching that video in The Ring). This was followed by a singing contest, which was changed to a "pigpen" contest that Austin won. Damn bait and switch.
