Wrestlers You Dislike

[scorpiorising]

I am not a huge Cena fan either, but it is really simple to understand why he was the top guy for more than a decade. He is the biggest merch seller in their history and was a great ambassador for the sport. He did a ludicrous amount of PR stuff, and has the record for the Make a Wish foundation among other things.

Ya I get he sells merchandise. Cool. And the pr stuff is great and all. Make a wish stuff... Great.

But it's the fact that he's in that spot to actually do all that stuff that bewilders me

As far as just straight-up, don't wanna cheer or boo, just don't want to watch at all.

Currently for WWE:

Charlotte Flair - She's alright-but-not-spectacular in the ring, her character and mic work fucking sucks. Had it not been for Ric, she'd have been low-mid card at best and likely bouncing around the Indys. I would rather watch a Nia Jax match, and I used to like Nia even less.

Nobody else on WWE's current roster that really has that same reaction for me.

For AEW:

Adam Cole - I would probably like Adam Cole if he stopped acting like he's the size of Stan Hansen.

Eddie Kingston - I had a lot of hope. Dude has turned out to be the Temu Brooklyn Brawler of AEW.

Hook - See Adam Cole above.

Jack Perry - Had he kept his shit together, professionally-speaking, he might not be on this list. He took what could've been a decent foothold into an angle, and all he could come up with was this "Scapegoat" drivel.

The Young Bucks - "We're dickheads, but it's a work, no it's a shoot, no it's a working-shoot, brother!" Just meh.

Mercedes Mone - The difference between her storyline work after leaving WWE has been night and day. She NEEDS producers to work with her for promos and packages, and stop giving her the damn mic for so long. She can go in the ring, unquestionably. I see her with a mic in her hand, I'm out.

Pac - Angry-ass Gollum looking motherfucker with his visa issues. He's like if Low Ki grew what hair he had left out, and wasn't up his own ass as much.

The chronically-online live AEW fans - No, that wasn't awesome. No, this isn't ECW and no matter how hard you try to put yourselves over, it will never be. They've convinced themselves they're a vital part of the show when it comes across as corny and taking away from the actual show. (Let me clarify, I'm not saying ALL AEW fans, just the loudest, most obnoxious fuckers that feel like they deserve to be involved.) They actually manage to make me actively change the channel, and have turned me off of looking up any AEW-specific discussion online.

Honorable mentions to Speedball Mike Bailey (I'll at least stay tuned in if he's in an interesting match now), Jeff Jarrett (used to have go-away heat with me back in the day, but I've grown to appreciate his work a lot more these days), and Tony Khan (I want to Homer Simpson strangle him every time I see his face because it's frustrating as fuck watching AEW a lot of the time).

For TNA:

AJ Francis - I don't get it, I've listened to podcasts where he's a guest and they just keep putting him over as the best thing since sliced bread, but I just don't get it. At all.

Sami Callahan - I will preface this with saying I haven't seen a lot of his work pre-TNA, but the dude is just boring as fuck to me.

Tessa Blanchard - Racist rumors aside, I feel exactly the same way about her as I do Charlotte Flair.

Does Logan Paul count?
Like 90% of the “Samoans” wwe employs outside of Jacob Fatu
Goldberg
HHH, DX aside
Britt Baker
Chris Jericho since like 2023, love him outside of that
Kane
Ronda I guess, didn’t like her when she was fighting and that didn’t change in the squared circle
Baron Corbin
The Miz, a few promos aside
Tyrus/Brodeus Clay

My most controversial one but Jeff Hardy- I think he’s a good wrestler but personal life wise has ruined countless opportunities for himself to the point where I don’t really care what he does any more in the ring. I’m probably one of the very few out there who actually preferred Matt more of the two (he needs to retire though he can barely move)

Hook- boring. Him getting switched out for Hobbs was a massive upgrade

I dont dislike him but Jay White doesn’t do much for me. Maybe the high standards but if had to rank all the guys in the NJPW main event scene since around like 2015 he’d be last (just remembered EVIL was champ before hitting post reply so second last then. JW is also overall better than Sanada too but when he got that push/changed his look a couple years ago I was into it at the time)

 

[Thrawn33]

Orton - never saw what was so impressive about him, still dont

HHH - in ring I think he was overrated, and his reign of terror booking when he hooked up with Steph buried damn near every up and coming face at the time even if he did do the job in ring, he was always protected...

Charlotte Flair - she or Ric has to have dirt on someone to get the Hogan treatment

 

[Pittie Petey]

Orton - never saw what was so impressive about him, still dont

He's the only wrestler on that whole entire roster that carries himself like an old school territories style heel, from the moment he steps from behind the curtain every single thing he does and doesnt do, sometimes that is more important, is very much reminiscent of the classic bad guys that drew huge houses week after week in places like Jim Crockett Promotions, Mid South Wrestling, Houston, St Louis or the AWA


His ring psychology and the way he works the fans is very subtle, every movement, every sneer, every syllable is delivered for maximum effect and it is very beautiful to see for an old timey fan such as myself




Literally me watching Randy Orton remind me of the old days

 

[Sara]

I don’t like kommander or holigram john Cena or cm punk or Cody. Cody isn’t that guy.

 

[Fury]

No, this isn't ECW and no matter how hard you try to put yourselves over, it will never be.

There's a lot of people who never went to a real ECW show or watched at that time who like to throw around x is the new ECW.

Nothing will replicate ECW, it was a very specific time, place and people. It wasn't perfect, it was sometimes bad and occasionally dangerous but it was important.
