5 WWE storylines that made no sense
By Ryan K Boman Modified 14 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share The Anonymous RAW GM is one of the more ridiculous angles in recent WWE history WWE has been responsible for some great sports entertainment stories. Heroes are made, villains are crushed and all is right with the world. However, there are countless others that didn't quite go according to plan. In a world where seemingly anything goes, WWE would often still find ways to shoot themselves in the foot when aiming for greatness. Some of their ideas were absolutely bizarre. They would throw something against the wall, just to see what would stick, and sometimes what stuck would turn your stomach. With all of Vince McMahon's creative vision, he has also been blinded by it at times. WWE has infamously misfired with some of the strangest stories we've ever seen. Here are five WWE storylines that made no sense, whatsoever.#5 Michael Cole becomes the scourge of WWE
With all due respect to WWE's lead announcer, he hardly looks like a heelish, super villain. But apparently Mr. McMahon thought he could transform the mild-mannered announcer into a dastardly rulebreaker. So, he did, and what followed were some of the most embarrassing moments in televised wrestling history.

This heel version of Cole wasn't entertaining onscreen, but it also had one other flaw. It took what was supposed to be the company's trusted voice of the fans and made them distrust him. The angle would end when Lawler had an on-air heart attack. It was then decided to scrap the 'evil Michael Cole' gimmick.#4 Perry Saturn falls in love with a mop
As part of The Radicalz, Perry Saturn joined WWE in 2000 with friends Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko and Chris Benoit. Coming from the sinking ship known as WCW, the four had high hopes for a fresh start. It worked out well... atleast for three of them, anyway. Saturn had some early success, but then was (inexplicably) put into an angle where he fell in love with a mop. As the weeks went on and on, his behavior and affection for "Moppy" became even weirder. Paddy Power@paddypowerRT for Perry Saturn, FAV for Perry Saturn with a mop. http://t.co/nQ4WRazCFf55939RT for Perry Saturn, FAV for Perry Saturn with a mop. http://t.co/nQ4WRazCFf One explanation for this story was that it was punishment from WWE management. Saturn had previously destroyed preliminary wrestler Mike Bell in a match. Apparently, Bell had either missed a spot or was taking liberties with Saturn and paid the price for it. Eventually, so did Perry. It may have been punishment for him, but it was even worse for everyone watching at home.#3 The Anonymous RAW General Manager
While this angle started out at least a little intriguing, it lost speed quickly. Unfortunately, that didn't stop it from coasting for far too long.
