Everything Wrong With WWE in 1993

Everything Wrong With WWE in 1993

What happens when the wrestling industry's biggest company loses its direction completely? Absolute chaos.

In this comprehensive breakdown, we examine how 1993 became one of the most troubled years in WWF history. From a scandal that threatened to destroy the company to creative decisions that alienated longtime fans, this was the year everything went wrong at once.

You'll discover why Bret Hart was left carrying an underwhelming roster while Hulk Hogan made his exit, learn how the Lex Luger American hero push completely missed the mark with audiences, witness the bizarre gimmick experiments that gave us Doink the Clown, Bastion Booger, and the Shockmaster-level disasters, and understand how Yokozuna's title reign exposed the lack of credible babyface challengers.

These are the stories of a promotion desperately searching for its next generation while veterans like Randy Savage were pushed aside and newcomers like Diesel and Razor Ramon were still finding their footing. The Undertaker was stuck in ridiculous feuds, Shawn Michaels was years away from main event status, and promising talents like Mr. Perfect were dealing with injuries at the worst possible time.

The exodus of talent to WCW had begun with names like Ric Flair heading south, house show attendance was dropping, and pay-per-views headlined by Giant Gonzalez matches tested everyone's patience. Meanwhile, legends like The Ultimate Warrior and British Bulldog were gone, leaving massive holes in the card that gimmicks like Mantaur and Adam Bomb simply couldn't fill.

Whether you lived through this era or want to understand how close Vince McMahon's empire came to collapse, this video breaks down everything that went wrong during the forgotten year that nearly ended it all.
