Squash (Professional Wrestling)

In professional wrestling, a squash is an extremely one-sided match; one performer dominates the other and quickly defeats them with virtually no resistance. Squash matches were the almost exclusive content of syndicated wrestling shows through the 1980s. The World Wrestling Federation aired several shows weekly that consisted mostly of various wrestlers fighting unknowns, usually to help get a gimmick or moveset over. Today, such squash matches are usually used to portray a wrestler as an unstoppable monster heel. One example of a face using squash matches, to devastating effect, was World Championship Wrestling's Goldberg in his angle against the nWo, where Goldberg would quickly defeat a heel opponent after using his spear and jackhammer moves against him.
