Is This The Worst Botch Ever?

"Out of every lawsuit, internal dispute, battle, etc., I had never read of this until tonight (from Wikipedia):

"Charles Austin controversy

In a Rockers tag team match at the USF Sun Dome in December 1990, Jannetty executed his Rocker Dropper finishing move on jobber Charles Austin, who had been teaming with Lanny Poffo. Austin's neck was instantly broken as a result of tucking his head during the move, rather than "pancaking" flat on the mat. Austin was severely injured and sued Jannetty, Michaels, and Titan Sports. When the case finally came to court in early 1994, Charles Austin was awarded $26.7M.[5]"

26.7 million...in 1990. WOW. It's incredible to think how big WWF/WWE is and was, to where 26.7 million dollars, as much of a blow as it was, did not make or break them. That's unbelievable...and all due to one Rocker Dropper."
I read a story somewhere that said Austin didnt get paid that settlement for several years and eventually settled for pennies on the dollar
Cant remember where I read it though
 
I was watching the LOD-NOD street fight at WrestleMania 13 and I found the sloppy piledriver laughable all things considered. Animal was attempting to piledriver Farooq, I believe.



Who was more at fault here?
I think it's big show panicking. Like he did when Orton was going for the top rope ddt on him.
 
Jesus, I didn't think that was what was gonna happen.

Wow some of these are brutal and difficult to watch.
London ACTUALLY got fucking curbstomped essentially. If I remember the story right Davey Richards (I think that's the guy that lands on him) and the ref proceed to FINISH THE MATCH AS ORIGINALLY PLANNED and don't call an audible.

Rexy likes to poppa da like button virgin cherry.


*insert anything from Botchmania here*
 
Sin Cara botched hard last night, I though he wouldn't return to the match.
 
According to Google, the worst ever is this one... I saw this a few years ago but I have no other info... Gotta love the guy for trying to kick out!

They posted a clip of Vince fucking up his lines at a Wrestlemania so he bought every single piece of media they have in the site and banned them from ever using it again, or distribution via threats of litigation... Was a good site too... I haven't seen the cuckoo-clock clip anywhere else apart from there.
 
wtf is that? is that the 1-2-3 Kid? who is he wrasslin??
i have no idea,i was just looking at botches,saw this and pissed my self laughing. I'm probably going to hell for that,but he missed all the ropes and then tried to fly by flapping his arms.
