Wrestlers you just can't get into
« on: January 24, 2011, 08:15:38 AM »
A list of wrestlers that came around that I simply couldn't garner any interest (support or heat) for no matter what they did or what gimmick they tried.

Barry Windham
Mike Rotunda
Samoa Joe
Shane Douglas
Sam Houston
Eric Watts
Lex Luger (biggest choker of all time)
Great Kahli  (shouldn't even put him here as no one else could either)

The Great Kahli has to be the biggest one though. Who the hell wants to watch him? Even his promos are in Punjab.

He was awful.  Should NEVER have been allowed to speak...maybe do a run-in on occasion, be a bodyguard, etc... but not a regular worker.

Remember his match with the Undertaker at WM9? Everytime he tok a right hand from the Undertaker he looked like a drunk who had 24 beers proir to stepping in the ring.

I really like his ring work.I'm not a big fan of his promos where...he...talks...lik e...this.... He has been acting way to vanilla for the past few months. I understand they have a lack of faces on Raw, but he should have a little more edge. Hugging Cena? Tagging with Jerry Lawler? If he goes back to a tweener type, I'd like him a lot better.

Your right about the...way....he....talks ....ever....so....slowly .....

And I hate the way he walks to the ring. I could make a run to Pizza Hut and come back with Pizza & wings and he'll still be walking to the ring.

But that RKO he did in mid air on Evan Born while Borne did his shoooting star press was sick!!    :)

He has complained to management that his charactor needs to be heel. Not face but as usual creative thinks they know what their doing....

I hate the way Orton has to stick that jaw out everywhere in the ring.  And the way after a casual move or duck he has to throw his arms back and head up in a Superman Takes Flight pose.

  I totally remember that- one of the first times I ever felt sorry for a wrestler, though Dusty in polka dots with Sapphire is up there, too.

Kofi Kingston has become a bore, ever since he dropped the Jamaican gimmick. What's the point? The whole character (from the entrance to his finishing move) is based on his being from the island of paradise.

I've heard that his parents were angry at him for claiming he's from Jamaica, instead of Ghana. But, he's had that gimmick, since his bush-league days.

When he first arrived, he beat the Undertaker like a red-headed stepchild (and 'Taker actually has red hair).

A clean win over the Deadman at Judgment day, no less.

Not really!! Khali was what I call a "Super-destroyer" heel. For the first 6-12 months, they beat up everyone in sight. Then, they start to fade.

WWE does/did that a lot. From Earthquake, to Vader, to Kane, to Umaga and, of course, Khali.

Big show is huge and at least he does a lot more shit and more entertaining.
