SPIN: Say something negative about your favorite wrestlers

[Metta World Movement]

This thread is worthless without R=G

As for my favorites:

Cody Rhodes has generally been overrated due to early comparisons with Ted Jr. And he's hit-or-miss on the mic.

Jeff Hardy is one of the biggest examples of self-ether in pro wrestling history. A dude that's not big in size, who's a spot monkey and isn't that good on the mic....and he still got very popular and won the WWE title. But them drugs....

Rey became pretty much worthless once he stopped doing his craziest high-flying moves.

There was NOTHING about Christian that EVER suggested that he deserved any of the top belts. I liked him but I never saw him as deserving higher than the IC/US belt.

Cole needs to start calling actual moves more and selling the match, instead of putting himself over and talking about things not related to the match. I know that's not entirely his fault with Vince being in his ear, but still....there's a noticeable difference between Smackdown Cole and Raw Cole in that respect. That's one of the few legit complaints against him, from people who simply just miss JR and want him to still do commentary even after his funeral.

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.

As a big fan of Aries, the bolded is true. Lol he wears lifts tho?

Cosign, plus they've already had people kick out of it in non-epic type matches so its not believable. He used a superkick that one time that was pretty great, saw someone on here call it the #HEEL. That's perfect.

Yuh that was me. That one time he pulled out the superkick it was crisp as fukk.

Look at his boots, then think about the proportions of anyone else who wears those types of boot/kickpad combos. The only one comparable is Jericho, who wore lifts. Aries is wearing at least 2" lifts in that photo.

makes sense

he always seemed at least taller than Bryan tho, who is 5'8 ... so I doubt Aries is 5'5 lol ... shieeet, 5'5' world champ, wolverine status

but i can never tell with these things so

Raven wore a lift too

Eh, 5'5" is an exaggeration. I'd say he's around the height of Davey Richards minus the lifts, and he's no taller than 5'7". Aries is probably in that 5'6"-5'7" range. Lifts probably make him 5'9" or so.

Edit: And yeah, Raven was born with one leg like an inch shorter than the other, so he always had to wear one thick-soled wrestling boot when competing.

El Generico will never get out of the indys.

By choice. And I don't know why, he would get over in any company.

Ric Flair's matches started to follow the same formula after a while and he should've retired in teh 90s

Arn Anderson should've broke away from 4H and try to get the title while in his prime

Dustin Rhodes aint shyt without the gold paint

Booker T imitated the Rock a lot

Macho should've never joined either nWo

Hall shouldve stayed solo

Owen's a dikk for not checkin up on Austin backstage after breaking his neck

Ultimo Dragon

As good as the HBGOAT/Taker matches were he should have done a program with one of the younger guys. I could only imagine the stuff they could have done with him and .

Old ass Taker didn't need those wins.

This is going to be painful but....

Cody Rhodes needs to stop doing that weird coke sniff thing he does after a promo (especially during backstage promos. It's not THAT noticeable but still irks me)

Chris Jericho's latest run has been/was crap

Chris Jericho sometimes comes off as a bit smug/pretentious in interviews

The Rock's promos in the feud with John Cena could have been better

Natalya hasn't done sh*t worth talking about since debuting

Kharma was sort of foolish to get pregnant shortly after debuting

Lita was kind of sloppy at times

John Cena cuts super worthy promos a lot.

 

[Grifter]

Raven wore a lift too

Raven had to cause one of his legs is shorter than the other.

-Bret Hart is terrible on the mic

-The Rock...tooth fairy

-Dean Malenko...if the rumors are true, dude was a supplier

-Sycho Sid...too many lapses in actually being an active wrestler

-Great Muta...don't know...

 

[g-ice]

Cena's character is shyt and his promos are too over the top.

Jericho's last run was a dissapointment.

Rock's promos against Cena were unimpressive.

Christian was boring as shyt as a face.

Rey looks even though he puts on good matches still.

Bryan's not that charismatic.

speak on that

Eddie G: them drugs

Sean O'haire: Should have stayed in the business and gone a lot further then he did

Muhammad Hassan: See sean o'haire

The Rock: Is not as good in ring overall as HBK, Stone Cold, or Taker so imo he isn't the GOAT wrestler. Character...up for debate...but wrestler? No

Cody Rhodes: Is struggling right now because, like Goldust, he needs a gimmick in order to be effective. Dolph does it with his selling and work rate, cody has solid work rate but like Carlito he seems like he doesn't go for 5 stars every time he's in the ring or on screen.
