Spin: Wrestlers you were wrong about?

[WalkGawd]

I just knew we had a star at this moment.

 

[The Solid One]

I thought the Miz was the Janetty of Miz and Morrison

I thought London and Kendrick were the future

Miz still sucks

 

[Jakarta]

the thought of Nakamura still being as good after leaving Japan.

Oh yeah, this was a big one. At this point I'm gonna die with E still doing Japanese talent dirty almost always.

 

[Playaz Eyez]

its always weird listening to something to wrestle with and hearing him talk about people the crowd didn't care about

and its like y'all don't give them time to care about someone...Mordecai being an example

It didn’t help that his ring attire was stupid as hell. Had he came in with his ECW gimmick right off, he may have fared better.

 

[Microfracture]

I was wrong about him being trash but it was Kurt Angle. I was a kid and he had so much heel heat with me I couldn't recognize that the reason this loser was having great matches was because he was actually great.

 

[Tommy Fits]

Carlito... Thought he had next, thought he had that IT factor

 

[Doctor Doom]

Carlito... Thought he had next, thought he had that IT factor

As soon as he started wrestling in pants, it was over

 

[Peter Parker]

Figured Shynron would be a huge star rn

 

[luckyse7enz]

Sean O'Haire I thought was a main eventer

I was so sure of it. I also thought that Wrath v. Goldberg was going to be the feud to carry WCW into the new millennium, with Wrath being the guy to end the streak.

Nash said, “Nope!”

Chad Gable is the next Daniel Bryan... been saying that for years but idk anymore.

Same...and so I was definitely on the Sandow wagon. Expected him to at least become U.S. champ.

Savior of the Unwashed Asses.

Got the same hope for Aleister Black, but we’ll see....

 

[PYRRHUS 88]

I thought Low Ki would be a legend

When Ultimo Dragon signed with WWE, I thought we were in for some classic matches with him and Rey, Tajiri etc

 

[Mike the Executioner]

Some recent things:

-I thought Strowman would have had a dominant run as Universal Champion by now. I finally gave up.

-When Becky Lynch turned heel and cut her first promo, I was ready to write her off entirely. Not because of her, but because of the booking. I thought she was destined for the women's battle royal at WrestleMania. Damn, I was wrong.

-I really thought Undertaker was done after WrestleMania 33, and I thought him squashing Cena a year later was just a one-time thing so his character could go out on a higher note. Nope.

-Thought Miz would have been a multiple-time world champion at this point. Crazy to think he's way better as a wrestler and character now than he was in 2010/2011, but there's no way in hell he's sniffing the WrestleMania main event again.

-I thought WWE would actually do right by Asuka. Maybe she wouldn't be what she was in NXT, but they would at least keep her somewhat protected for a while. Then WrestleMania 34 happened and it's been like a nightmare ever since.

-Didn't think the New Day would have any kind of success. Thought they were the kind of group that Triple H would have beaten the shyt out of back when he was on SmackDown in 2008.

-Didn't see Carmella getting the spotlight. Thought she was trash in 2016, but she turned it around in more ways than one.

-Thought Seth Rollins had everything it took to be a top star last year. This year, I had to reconsider my feelings on him.

 

[puppetmaster]

I’m gonna have to put Apollo Crews on this list unfortunately


I said I’d come eat my L if he didn’t ultimately pan out.


Pass the Siracha sauce

 

[ALTRUISM]

I thought Drew Mac had next when he first returned to the scene, dropping everybody and their mothers with a Claymore kick.

 

[Amor fati]

I thought Bobby Roode was gonna make big moves in the WWE.

 

[Amor fati]

I thought we'd get Sting V Undertaker
