Top Ten Worst WWE Championship Belts in History!

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/06/27

I know a lot of folks live and die by and dedicate corners of their houses for them, but I have never, ever been a big mark for championship belts. Even when I see one I think looks nice, I just kinda shrug and move on with my life. In fact, most of the time […]

The Return of Double J

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/06/20

When WWF viewers first saw Jeff Jarrett, he was a wannabe country music star… …an aspiring singer hoping success in the ring would catapult him to the top of Nashville somehow. In 1995, “Double J” Jeff Jarrett (That’s J E double-F, J A double-R E double-T) would perform his first single, “With My Baby Tonight” […]

John Cena and Randy Orton vs. The “Entire” Raw Roster

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/06/13

At the time I am writing this, three of the biggest stars vying for the WWE title would be John Cena, Randy Orton, and Cody Rhodes. But would you believe that all three men were battling way back seventeen years ago? I mean, you should, because it’s WWE and a lot of times nothing changes, […]

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/06/06

The story of Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa from NXT was one for the ages. In an arc that spanned years, the two men began as partners before a shocking and brutal betrayal by the Ciampa. In a series of emotional matches, Johnny became corrupted in his pursuit of righteous vengeance. And just when it […]

2025/05/30

Ah yes, it’s that time again when we dig into the TSC vaults and unearth another pro wrestling appearance, this time from the beginning of the Attitude Era in early 1998! If you’re unfamiliar with it, TSC is Canada’s shopping network, accurately dubbed THE Shopping Channel. We have paid them at least one visit in […]

Disco Inferno’s Disqo Duck

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/05/23

Back in 1976, amid the disco craze, radio DJ Rick Dees released the novelty song, “Disco Duck”. A collaboration with recording legends His Cast of Idiots, the song dared ask what would happen if Donald Duck went to a club and skirted intellectual property law. The record unexpectedly hit #1 on the Billboard charts. Disco […]

Giant Gonzalez Invades WWF Mania – Run, Todd...

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/05/16

From the “this sounds too amazing so it’s not possible it could be true” file comes today’s induction, featuring good ol’ Giant Gonzalez taking over the little remembered and rightly so WWF Mania show. Those of you who do have recollections of it remember it no doubt as it featured Todd Pettengill and Stephanie Wiand, […]

Hayabusa’s Explosion Match

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/05/09

All the buzz in a particular corner of the Internet this week is about Pro Wrestling Zero1’s new Hayabusa character. Not only does he look just like the original Japanese legend……he moves like him, too. Time will tell if Hayabusa II will live up to his late great namesake, but it’s neat to see “Hayabusa” […]

Virgilina – Yes, It’s Virgil Dressed as a Woman. Why?...

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/05/02

Before I write another word, I want to make one thing very, very clear: I love Roddy Piper. LOVE HIM. I had the pleasure of catching up with him many times, including when he did a literal run-in during a WrestleCrap Radio recording (and me returning the favor by being on his podcast as well […]

NXT Trivia Challenges

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/04/25

A few weeks ago, my brother and I won a local wrestling trivia game for the second year in a row (Team name: Team WrestleCrap). Which got me thinking: What would have happened if actual WWE Superstars competed against us? After all, we just watch the stuff—those guys live it. Well, a look back at […]

2025/04/18

Let’s get this out of the way so those of you who are easily offended are offended easily. And early in this induction. I have always though the Undertaker’s WrestleMania win streak was blown way out of proportion. While there were no doubt some classic matches during his run, there were a LOT of horrible […]

100% Lucha, The Movie

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/04/11

100% Lucha, The Movie is a movie based on 100% Lucha. Complicated, I know. The lyrics to the theme song are also complicated, but I think I’ve got them down: 100% lucha 100% lucha 100% lucha 100% lucha 100% lucha 100% lucha 100% lucha Long-time WrestleCrap readers might remember me inducting 100% Lucha, la película […]

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/04/04

Not sure why, but I’ve been on a kick of 1986 WWF of late. Maybe it has to do with the fact the site just celebrated its 25th anniversary (yay us!), or maybe it’s because I started with that Rock N Wrestling Live Action stuff then stumbled into Big John Studd vs. Ted Arcidi and […]

Ted Arcidi vs. Big John Studd – The Stuff WrestleCrap...

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/03/21

Sometimes one induction on the site naturally leads to the next one. Such is the case today, as the last one I did was Hulk Hogan’s Rock ‘n Wrestling: the Live Action Skits. When I was doing that one, I thought, “Is there anyone on planet earth besides myself that could possibly be interested in […]

The NWA Invasion

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/03/14

In 1997, as the WWF tried in vain to get the upper hand on WCW Nitro, Vince McMahon reached out to a plucky little indie promotion with a rabid following and nationwide notoriety. And while the ECW invasion of WWF Raw didn’t turn the tide of the Monday Night War, it certainly got people talking. […]

Hulk Hogan Rock n’ Wrestling Cartoon…But ONLY the...

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/03/07

Had this special request come through and I honestly couldn’t say no. All the old farts on here remember the legendary Hulk Hogan Rock n’ Wrestling cartoon from the 1980s. I do too, as I inducted it about a billion years ago. It sucked, but to be honest, that wasn’t to be fully unexpected. Unlike others, even […]

Big Show vs. Batista in ECW

Inductions – WrestleCrap ·

2025/02/28

For fans of the original Extreme Championship Wrestling, June of 2006 seemed like a dream come true. Not only would ECW get another PPV, it would also get—in a move unthinkable since the failed 2001 invasion—its own cable TV show. Rob Van Dam even won his first ECW World Title. But even on a show […]

2025/02/21

Despite the fact it was over 20 years ago, I remember March 17, 2004 like it was yesterday. As well I should – it was on that day I got to meet my favorite personality in pro wrestling ever, Bobby “The Brain” Heenan. They say to never meet your heroes, but I’ve found that to […]
