Nigel McGuinness/Desmond Wolfe should have taken better care of himself physically. If he had taken the proper time to heal up and reduced the stress on his body by changing his moveset, he would have still been in TNA to this day, or have been able to pass the physical and gotten a deal with the WWE. I'm not saying he would have taken the wrestling world by storm but he could have been a part of the WWE's push for international wrestlers; he would have been cradled by the company much the same way Wade Barrett and Sheamus are now.
Oh, and he threw too many fukking lariats in every match. shyt started getting ridiculous during his ROH title run. 8 lariats in a match?
Let's get a bit more specific about this: Nigel dropped the ROH belt on April 3, 2009. Nigel first hurt himself a bit after his Rising Above match against Danielson...in late November 2008. Dude first hurt himself 4 months before he actually dropped the belt and never changed his style up. Add to this the fact that he was soft headed to begin with, which contributed to his concussion problems, and his early retirement slides a bit from "unfortunate" to "the consequence of recklessness".
Note: We have to lay some blame on the ROH bookers here, because the original plan for Nigel's reign was to have him drop the belt to Tyler Black at Final Battle 2008. Instead, just to spite Gabe Sapolsky, they kept it on him until April, knowing good and damn well he was working very hurt. They used a broken down champion to give the middle finger to their ex-booker. I like ROH, but that shyt was disgraceful.
Others...
CM Punk: Please, please,
please,
please learn to shut up once in a while. Not everybody wants to hear your thoughts on everything on Twitter, and they're not always needed.
Antonio Cesaro: Your WWE run has been boring and uninteresting. But then again, I always thought Hero was the better half of the KoW, so
Dolph Ziggler: Stop taking these comparisons of your selling to Mr. Perfect as a compliment. If I remember correctly, Perfect's selling ruined his career. Not only are you going to end up really hurt in the future if you keep doing that outlandish shyt, it also makes you look like a cartoon. People don't take cartoons seriously (Admittedly, he has toned down his selling a bit over the last few months).
Rey Misterio: Please retire. Not because you're a shell of a shell of what you once were, but because you're going to go from the ring directly into a wheelchair if you don't.
Austin Aries: Lifts don't keep us from seeing that you're like 5'5". Be thankful that you're talented enough to get past that. Also, no matter how you spin it, you were a second tier ROH legend. Not on the level of Danielson, Punk, Joe or Homicide.
James Storm: You're not the guy to lead TNA into the future. Sorry, you just don't have it, and it's magnified when you have Austin Aries in the top babyface spot.
Kevin Steen: Please lose 20 pounds immediately. Also, your non-hardcore skills have seriously deteriorated. These two points
are linked.
Hiroshi Tanahashi: You lapse into formula too often. Does EVERY match need pointless leg work, a million dragon screws (setting up for a finisher you barely even use anymore) and multiple High Fly Flows? The fact that you still have great matches is a testament to your talent.
