Who is your LEAST favorite current wrestler? 

Post#1 » by Dunthreevy » Sun May 23, 2010 6:18 pm

Just pick one, the one guy who you absolutely hate. And I don't mean like heel hate either. I mean you hate seeing him perform.

I'll start things off with....


Abyss


I absolutely can not stand watching this dude. His whole gimmick is terrible in my opinion, and has only gotten worse since Hogan tried making him a star baby face. When he comes on my tv, I almost always fast forward or change the channel if it's live.

Very easily Cena.

And the worst part about the whole thing is that hating him has become this hackneyed thing you get looked down on for doing. He's become so hated by smarks that he's almost underrated now. And yet every time he cuts one of his awful pseudo-intensity promos, or works one of his predictable matches (to be fair, every match on RAW is predictable) I want to commit hari kari in front of my television. I think to myself, "there's no way this guy is this bad", and I want to give him a chance because he's a 'hard worker' and a 'company man', but I can't force myself to even come close to liking the guy, as hard as I try.

I would say Cena as well, i liked him when he first started. If they didn't give him the belt as much as hes had it, then I wouldn't care. WWE trys to make Cena too much like Hogan, where nobody can beat him and blah blah blah. My thing is if your going to take the belt off him to just put it back on him the next month...whats the point? It makes no sense to somebody like Flair who held Heavyweight belts for a lengthy time.

Batista would be my choice. I actually can't stand the guy and he's a joke in the ring.

He's another guy who I typically change the channel on.

I don't mind Batista as a heel at all.

Does Hornswoggle count? I don't get to watch Raw very much but when he's been on Smackdown I almost want to turn the station. Back when he was Finlay's sidekick it was okay but now that they're pushing him more by himself it's hard to stomach. Great Khali would be another one.

Yeah the Abyss is pretty effing bad and very overrated. Khali cannot wrestle period. I think Eric Young sucks but for some reason people like him. Festus aka Luke Gallos sucks ass. The worst was when they actaully tried pushing Big Daddy V a couple years back

Mine would be Abyss as well. I'd throw HHH in there as well. HHH is very, very good but he's not on the level of the guys like Rock, Angle, Austin, HBK and SCSA.

As far as Cena, I'm one of those guys who does think he's underrated. His promos are awful, but that's primarily because his charachter has been sanitized. And if this was the only critique he got I'd be fine with that. But the critique of him has primarily been his wrestling ability. Cena isn't Kurt Angle but I think he is very good in the ring. I look at someone like him and someone like Kingston and I think Cena is significantly better. Kingston is considered better because he's got the high-flying athletic moves while Cena has the power moves. But Cena is much better at selling and his moves appear much more crisp. Kingston's seeling isn't particularly strong and sometimes he looks great but sometimes he also looks very sloppy and if I were a wrestler I'd be a little afraid of facing him.

You're out of your mind. Triple H not on the same level as guys he came up in the business with? Please. Triple H is just as big an Icon in pro wrestling as any of those guys. He's one of if not the greatest Heel to ever enter a wrestling ring.

Oh please, HHH is not nearly as good as HBK was during his heel run in the mid-late 90's, or Hollywood Hogan. Jericho is cutting better heel promos today than HHH was during his heyday.

He may be as big an icon as any of those guys I mentioned but that's only because of longevity. He's been a main eventer since mid-1999. How many other guys have had a 10+ year main event run? The only guy of those 5 that's had that kind of run is Angle and I don't think he'd had the impact those other guys have had and I put him on that list because he is the best wrestler I have ever seen, yes slightly ahead of Bret. If we were to make a match of the decade list, I'm pretty certain Angle would have the most appearances on that list.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I dont know if I could agree with that one my friend. Believe me im no HHH mark myself, but I do have to say that when he plays the heel he plays a damn good one and he makes you hate him and does a damn good job of making you hate him. He knows how to avoid the "cool heel" trap.

As far as Jericho goes: I liked Jericho as a heel when in his WCW years and his early WWF years. He had personality but still drew the heat when needed to. this whole short haired, mad at the world heel version of Jericho just doesnt have the same majic as the old one

Again, I'm not saying he's bad by any means. All of the guys I mentioned are guys who have done things I've never seen before and may never see again and are all-time greats and while I consider HHH to be great he doesn't fall into that category.

Jericho draws better heat today than he ever did, whether you like his charachter or not.

Probably HHH since he hasn't had a good match in a long time and even when he's not in the top program, he starts RAW by talking for 20 minutes in the ring.

You must not have watched much wrestling then because Triple H did plenty of unbelievable things throughout his career. To say he isn't as big a star as those people is a spit in the face. Chris Jericho, Kurt Angle, Edge, Randy Orton, etc. None of those guys could draw the type of heat that Triple H could during his days as being the top heel in the company.

Yes they can, like I said I think Jericho is just as good at drawing heat as HHH was.

I'll re-phrase it another way. The Rock, SCSA, HBK these were guys who could bring in and captivate the non-wrestling fan as a face or a heel. I don't think HHH ever had that same crossover appeal. And like I said, I threw Kurt in there because he's so good in the ring.

I agree HHH never had the crossover appela as the rock and austin
and i belive alot of HHHs heat came for the baby face hes was working with like foley and jeff hardy
also the internet hated him
