So much like in life, sometimes wrestling makes a mistake. That's mostly okay. I mean, even if you offend somebody, if you come out after the fact and say, hey, listen, I didn't mean to do that. Please accept our forgiveness. Well, maybe that's what you're going to get. But as you already know, nine times out of ten, the industry turns around and says, uh, no, we have an excuse for that, and then they start to make

it worse. It basically comes down to the fact that not all excuses are valid, so hello my friends,

I am Simon Miller, and let us sit down and stand, it's totally up to you, and talk about

the worst excuses for terrible wrestling moments. So what happened here? Well, James Ellsworth,

who did go on a bit of a run on the W.W.

Main Roster, was involved in the first ever women's money in the bank match. That made sense.

He was friends with Carmella. He can just stand outside the ring and look like a buffoon.

Why the flub not? And then during the 2017 pay-per-view, it was actually Ellsworth that shimmied

his way up the ladder, grabbed the briefcase and pulled it down before tossing it to his now best pal. Now on television, WW, we explained this by sending Daniel Bryan the then-smackdown GM out there so he could say, well, this is actually super duper great, because now we can do a rematch and won't that be awesome you could all watch it on

free TV oh no that did not sit well with fans at all because most people said uh excuse me

did you just have a male wrestler win the first ever female money in the bank contest and the

answer in a roundabout way was yes it was pretty damn. Now listen, James Ellsworth could have got involved

over and over again with other competitors throwing him out the ring, but this really did take

a historic moment and flushed it down the toilet. And if you've watched any of the attitude area,

you know that's the last thing the WW needed to be doing, especially in 2017. Let's just face it,

this was a massive mistake, but don't pretend getting a

rematch, counts as making it all right. Number nine, WW didn't write an anonymous GM conclusion.

So you all remember this one, because in 2010, Vince McMahon decided what the WW really needed

was an anonymous raw general manager who would make decisions. If you're

brand new to wrestling and wondering how that worked, well, there was a laptop next to Michael Cole,

and when it made a noise, the lead commentator would go over and read an email. If you're

now screaming into the abyss, don't worry, we all were too. Your idea totally got killed
