Several high-profile WWE bouts in 2025 failed to meet expectations, leaving fans frustrated. Cody Rhodes vs John Cena at WrestleMania 41 lacked intensity, Becky Lynch vs Nikki Bella suffered missed spots, and Jey Uso's RAW clash with Austin Theory ended in botches. Awkward finishes in Stratton's SmackDown main event and Cena vs Lesnar squash added to the year's worst list.
