Number 10, Nia Jax's WWE Return. Nia Jax made her surprise return to WWE at the 2023 Royal Rumble. Jax would return it in the illustrious number 30 spot in the women's rumble. And what should have been an impactful moment was ruined thanks to a rather comedic blunder by WWE's production team before the countdown had even commenced. Jax's theme randomly started to fight, and this led to a moment of sheer panic from everyone and WWE had no choice but to start the countdown, even though Jax's music was already playing, the other confusion on everyone's face in the crowd was hilarious. And it was a rare Royal Rumble botch from the production team. Number nine, it happens, man, it happens. It's part of the business. Sometimes people misspell wrestlers' names. We've seen that this year, just misspelling in their name on the graphic or getting the information wrong. So it happens. The Rumble curse. Speaking of the 2023 Royal Rumble, the Nia Jax botch wasn't the only blunder on the show. When Pat McAfee made his entrance to deliver commentary, he almost fell off his chair. And for a member of the production team holding the chair still, McAfee could have come crashing down through the commentary table. The chairs at the commentary desk would also play a key part in another botch in the show. And this occurred during Kofi Kingston's latest attempt to avoid elimination. Kingston's Rumble saver become one of the most exciting parts of the annual event. Yet in recent years, these once thrilling spots have seemingly gone wrong every single time. Yeah. In the 2023 Rumble, upon being thrown off the apron, it looked like the former WWE champion was hoping the land on the aforementioned chair, but he ended up falling to the ground. It looked like Kingston may have been injured during the botch, but thankfully it was reported that the WWE veteran was completely fine. Yeah, his little Rumble spots, they they haven't been working as of the past few years. Kingston would take to Twitter to make light of the situation by tweeting, Well, the universe has spoken, rest in peace, hashtag Royal Rumble. It's unknown if Kingston's tweet meant he was retiring the celebrated Rumble spots. And if that's the case, fans will be very disappointed when the 2024 Rumble fails to feature another heroic athletic spot from Kingston. If it works, it works. But I think, you know, it's always been cool for him to save himself. Like that's a cool one right there. But I think it's been kind of forced the last few years and they just haven't yet been able to successfully do it. So I think if they plan something really dope and he can actually hit it, maybe, but I don't know. I don't think they should focus on it too, too much going forward. Number eight, the L.A. Slip. L.A. Knight has had a tremendous 2023. L.A. has emerged to be one of the breakout stars of this year. And his meteoric rise has been an utter joy to witness. L.A. Knight has had several feuds over the course of the year, including feuds with the likes of the late great Bray Wyatt. We miss you, Bray. Loma Reigns and even Seamus. During one of his matches with Seamus in the summer of 2023, there was a huge botch that could have resulted in serious injury occurring. The botch occurred when Seamus was sitting prone on the turnbuckle and L.A. leaped onto the ropes. But he missed, yeah, he fell. And they sent the whole plant spot into disarray. It appeared that L.A. Knight was going to throw Seamus off the turnbuckle, but both men would fall to the outside. These types of botches can occur at any time in the WWE match. And it doesn't matter if it's two inexperienced talents or two tenured pros like L.A. Knight and Seamus. Sometimes botches and blenders can't be avoided. I mean, and he was able to rectify that. I believe that as Summer Slam in the Slim Jim Battle Royal, he was able to finally actually hit it in one go. But, you know, it happens when you get to that top rope. It could be very tricky. So it's one of the things that happened, but he was able to rectify it in the Battle Royal, the Slim Jim Battle Royal. And in a positive twist that the 2023 Summer Slam event during the Battle Royal to replicate the plant spot from the match and this time they thankfully nailed it. Yep. Number seven, Roman Reigns' slip. But it wasn't just L.A. Knight who had a notable slip whilst performing a spot in 2023 as undisputed champion Roman Reigns also slipped the ring live on SmackDown. On the July 28th, 2023 edition of the blue brand, Reigns entered the ring and attempted to attack Jey Uso. Reigns' slip within the first few seconds of him being in the ring, yet Reigns immediately popped back up to his feet and delivered the plant spot. Which is really good of his awareness to be up that quick. Like it looked like it was, it was, he was supposed to slip. That's what made it, you know, not noticeable. It looked like he was supposed to actually slip, but that was that was good recovery by Roman Reigns there. His recovery was so incredibly smooth that the botch almost looked planned. Yeah. Number six, Seth Rollins splits his pants. A wrestler splitting their pants live on television is one of the worst things to happen. Yeah. It can lead to great embarrassment. Yet when Seth Rollins split his pants all the way around to the ring on Raw, Rollins decided to embrace the hilarious situation. Rollins would like to address the incident in a backstage interview, and it was great to see Rollins and WWE make the awkward situation into something that everyone could collectively laugh at. Brock Lesnar also had an entire malfunction in 2023 as during his match with Cody Rhodes at the SummerSlam Premium Live event, Lesnar somehow managed to rip his shorts. While it was a weird visual seeing Lesnar with ripped shorts, it did add to the idea that both Lesnar and Rhodes had been through a violent back-and-forth battle. Number five, Sammy Security Guard. The role of an arena security guard should be able to keep fans as well as the wrestlers themselves absolutely safe. Now it goes without saying that if anyone is going to come through the crowd for an interference spot then the security needs to be informed or else things can go horribly wrong. In early 2023, during the match between Bianca Belair and Alexa Bliss on Raw, Bliss would become distracted by a man in an Uncle Howdy mask at ringside. As the distraction spot was about to go down, a security guard tried to pull the individual in the mask back. The security guard evidently hadn't been informed of what was planned, and it was obvious that the mysterious man and the mask had to bring character to inform the security guard that it was actually part of the show. While some offered criticism towards the security guard, at the end of the day, he was simply doing his job. He's doing his job, which is good. You want them, obviously, he didn't know the plan, but you want them to at least be vigilant enough to do their job. So, you know, in case somebody does try some crazy stuff out there. If WWE had correctly informed the man of what was planned, then this situation could have easily been avoided. Number four, representing the Judgment Day. WWE's resident ring announcer for Raw, Samantha Irvin, is incredible in her role, just like her plenty of games that have come before her, such as Howard Finkiel, and Aileen Garcia. Irvin offers a new yet welcome spin on ring announcing. At the Money in the Bank event from London, England, in the summer of 2023, Irvin showed that even someone as gifted as her can have a comedic blunder from time to time. During Bayley's entrance for the Women's Man in the Bank Lantern Match, Irvin, for whatever reason, decided to introduce Bayley as a member of the Judgment Day. Irvin had her stables mixed up as she was meant to say that Bayley was a member of the Damage Control faction. Speaking on the Out of Character podcast, she would discuss the blunder and she would issue an apology if it took anyone out of the moment. Just like, well, first of all, I was like, hey, it is what it is, you know, you got to keep rolling. It's fine. I knew that what the what the women were about to come out and do was far more important than that. So I was like, OK, I'm going to just hit up Bayley after and apologize because, you know, I messed up her intro and she was cool that she's like, whatever. And then she just was making fun of me about it. And so once I knew she was fine, I was OK. For the fans, for the reaction that I got, I think it it made me really realize, like, wow, you you did it. And if I was a smarter businesswoman, I would have done it on purpose because it's been the response has been overwhelming, honestly. So I do apologize to everybody that I took out of the moment because that's what I would feel bad about. You know, everyone to take anyone out of the magic of the moment. So if I did that for someone, then I do apologize because it was not intentional. Number three, it happens, man. It happens. It's it's one of those things. It's it's one of those funny blunders. Michael Cole does it all the time on Monday Night Raw. He'll say someone's name is not someone's name. It's funny, you know, we understand, man. It's it's it's part of the business. Sometimes you get mixed up and make mistakes. It's cool. It's if it took someone out of the match that much, then where they like, come on, man, you shouldn't get that taken out of the match because the announcer messed up that normally doesn't mess up. Like, I don't know about that, but that was it's a light heart funny moment and Bailey wasn't chipping. It's all good. Three, tribal combat confusion. The main event at the 2023 Summer Slime Show saw Roman Reigns defend his undisputed title against Jey Uso. The match would be contested under tribal combat, which essentially meant that nobody was permits to interfere. That's what we thought. Ain't no DQ. The distinct stipulation was thrown out of the window when WWE booked Solo Sokoa to interfere in the match. In that WWE completely botched the main event of one of the biggest shows of the year. Fans were utterly confused and it was presented as a big deal that Sokoa was interfering. Yeah, it was apparent that WWE had forgotten that the tribal combat match wasn't supposed to feature any interference whatsoever. Things went bad to worse when Jey Uso also interfered during the final stages of the once anticipated match. The tribal combat match was an utter disaster and it's often labeled as one of the biggest disappointments at 2023. Everything else leading up to the match, feud, all this was great. And then tribal combat, I'm like, all right, cool. So basically it's just a no DQ, but none of the family members can interfere. But then they interfere. That's when I was like, yep, they jumped a shark. They jumped a shark on this state. They completely, I don't know what they were thinking. That was no fun match. But no, we didn't get no answer. No, it would have been cool if we could have seen more of their family members, their elders involved in the match. That would have been cool. Could have had some of the family members saying, no, blocking them. No, you can't go in the match. No, get out of here, something. It's just a no DQ match. That's all it became. But to Damien Priest gets confused. Mr. Money in the Bank Damien Priest has had a career defining year in WWE. Yet Priest was also involved in one of the funniest, yet well recovered botches of the calendar year. Two weeks following the 2023 Royal Rumble, Priest, along with other members of the Judgment Day, would interrupt Edge and Beth Phoenix. And Priest managed to deliver his promo completely wrong. Priest would state that he was gonna enter the Money in the Bank ladder match, as opposed to the schedule elimination chamber. It was an awkward yet comedic moment as Priest would pause and then realize he got the name of the match type incorrect. And he recovered well, as he verbally played after Judgment Day member Finn Balor and the promo segment was quickly able to move forward. And number one, The Miz Breaks character. The Miz has a reputation for being the constant professional in WWE. Yet in early 2023, he had such a funny blunder. The Miz couldn't even help himself in breaking character. The Miz would take part in a promo segment on SmackDown with Austin Theory and The New Day, and in a rare instance, The Miz would butcher his lines. The Miz was supposed to say that there's nothing more dangerous than him having a title on his shoulder, but the words simply couldn't come out. The Miz started to laugh live on air. The botchers made even funnier thanks to Xavier Woods and Kofi King's reaction. I don't think I've seen this segment. As he both found great humor in the situation. I don't think I've actually seen that segment. I may have to go back and watch that. I don't think I've seen that segment of him couldn't, he couldn't get the lines out. So he just started laughing. I may have to watch that. I don't think I've seen that. That's funny, man. It happens. That's why it's a live show. It's a live show. Sometimes they're live shows. Other times they get to record them. But for the most part, it's a live show. So these things happen. These things tend to, you know, be a part of the show. So it's not going to be perfect. Rarely is it ever perfect, you know, but you want to be able to have fun with it, you know? So the fact that The Miz, who rarely messes up on promos or anything like that, messed up so bad he just had to start laughing. Like, you can embrace it, man. You can definitely embrace it. But comment down below, let me know. Some other funny bloopers from 2023, from WWE. There's been a lot from Michael Cole. Like literally a lot from Michael Cole himself. So comment some of those down below if you remember them. But I appreciate all love and support. Got Sean on channel, wrote to 150K. Now I'm still getting speedy YouTube restaurants throughout the world. Appreciate y'all kicking in with me. See y'all on the next one. Peace.
