Alright here’s the thing, Pole matches sometimes (and I mean rarely) have a useful premise. For example if a wrestler has been using a personal weapon unfairly, it’s a good match to even the playing field and give the heel a taste of his own medicine. Whilst in the WWE, William Regal used brass knuckles to his advantage, so Edge vs. Regal in a “Brass Knuckles on a Pole Match” made at least some sense. But over the years, the “On a Pole” stipulation has seen its fair share of ridiculous moments, and we mostly have WCW and Vince Russo to thank.
Here’s a selection of some of the worst/weirdest/most pointless “On a Pole” Stipulations in wrestling history.

WWE Omg! – The Top 50 Moments in the History of the WWE has one of the most irritating titles in the history of wrestling DVDs. I’m already cringing at having to write it repeatedly and I can guarantee when you have watched this countdown you will be ready to just chuck your remote at the screen because of how many times ‘Oh My God’ is said after every new entry. The latest WWE special is out already in the Us and is available in the UK from today on Blu-ray and DVD (which bizarrely are both priced at £17.99 on Amazon). Here is our review…
This DVD is a meaty 3 disc set (or two disc if you have the Blu-ray). Disc one is the complete countdown of the 50 shocking moments in a highlight form, with various superstars and WWE behind-the-scenes folk commenting on what happened and why it was so shocking.
