Yeah but unlike Victoria, no one will get to see how good she is.

Rob "The Con Man" Conway?

That ALMOST had a chance to get over :shifty:

Ryder and Hawkins...I STILL don't know which is which.

Former tag team champs just got squashed by Khali. Do those belts mean anything anymore?

I remember at the same time as Conway's mini-push on Raw, Doug Basham was calling himself "The Bash Man" on Velocity. That would be my pick.

- Steve Blackman (except when he was in Head cheese). Hey, I'm a guy who carries sticks around and has a bland ass style and no charisma. I know he won matches sometimes, but I do not remember his finisher. He is like a black hole of entertainment.

- Sharkboy - I cannot begin to express my displeasure with this guy. I'd be okay if he was atleast an awesome cruiserweight, but he's not. He's a small guy who wrestles a very boring style, and has a totally unathletic look. He is an insult to wrestling fans, because he's embarrassing to the casuals.

- Mike Awesome "Fat Chick Thrilla" - enough said, really. He was such a badass in ECW. Vince Russo is a fucking assfaced cunt.

- "The One" Billy Gunn - what the fuck was that shit?

- S.H.I.T. - Hurricane and Rosey. Just lame.

When Mark Henry got Mae Young pregnant and she gave birth to a hand.

WWE
TNA

Kerwin White could have been amazing given the time to pan out.

Eugene was good while it lasted, but it was definitely tailor made for a short lived run.

The Boogeyman was sorta funny for a second, but I think that deserves at least a nod.

Swiss Ultimate 02-05-2018 05:25 AM

Go.

Judas whatever, to short to be a threatening monster, but does TNA care, no, do it anyhow.

How fucking stupid must BDC have been to understand that Rellik was killer backwards, but to have still spelled it the way that he did in this post?

Anybody Thrilla 02-05-2018 03:27 PM

In retrospect, The Boogeyman is kinda tight.

My Final Heaven 02-05-2018 04:00 PM

League of Nations felt kind of dead in the water before they were even officially a faction

Anybody Thrilla 02-05-2018 07:02 PM

I actually thought that was a good idea. It was just very poorly executed.

League of Nations could have been great, but they seemed to sour on the idea as quick as they came up with it and just made them all look fucking useless.

Unfortunately, Wade Barrett is no longer around following that, and even worse, Sheamus still is.

Anybody Thrilla 02-05-2018 07:11 PM

Yo, Sheamus is tight.

... that is until that pseudo Randy Newman music hit, then you knew this push was going nowhere.

Mr. Nerfect 02-06-2018 12:22 AM

I'm just not enthused by groups of foreigners all acting evil because they are foreigners. It homogenizes their individuality.

I have to put Baron Corbin: Lone Wolf up there with one of the worst. It just fucking sucks. We know you played football, mate.

Swiss Ultimate 02-06-2018 01:18 AM

Umaga was lame. Only Samoans I ever cared about were Joe and The Rock.

Juan 02-06-2018 07:39 AM

Umaga had some awesome matches in his short time with the company

Nicky Fives 02-06-2018 07:44 AM

Jillian Hall with the mole on her face. Terrible.

Jordan 02-06-2018 09:08 AM

I'd say one of the worst gimmicks was the Mexicana gimmick with Alberto Del Rio and Dutch Mantell. They swallowed everything good about Alberto upon his triumphant return. He could've been built into a real solid top star but in typical WWE fashion, if it's not in the stringent plans for the future, they can't adapt.

SlickyTrickyDamon 02-06-2018 10:46 AM

The internet troll

Shisen Kopf 02-06-2018 01:15 PM

Agent X in CHW was pretty lame. In a fed that had legends like Miniak and Robb Banks, Agent X was a big let down.

I hated the spike.

Mr. Nerfect 02-06-2018 05:25 PM

I hated the tribal gimmick and the Spike, and Joe was killing it at the time, but very slowly Umaga won respect in the WWE, and Vince Russo got more involved with Joe...

Good points.

Juan 02-07-2018 08:28 AM

Umaga had great chemistry with Jeff Hardy too. They put on some fun matches

Swiss Ultimate 02-07-2018 08:31 AM

All I can remember is the Cena stuff and the early squashes.

Anybody Thrilla 02-07-2018 01:15 PM

The Cena stuff was great, though.

Mr. Nerfect 02-07-2018 06:13 PM

Umaga vs. Jeff Hardy in a cage had one of the most memorable finishes ever.

I don't remember it.

Mr. Nerfect 02-07-2018 11:10 PM

You're missing out.

Jordan 02-07-2018 11:14 PM

Was it on Raw?

Lock Jaw 02-07-2018 11:14 PM

I'm sure I've seen it, but I don't remember it either.

Jordan 02-07-2018 11:16 PM

I can say I remember some great chemistry with Jeff and Umanga. Jeff's run with the IC title and then his World Title run were really really good from my memories.

Yeah. Jeff won with a Whisper in the Wind off the top of the cage. It was heading into his WWE Title match against Randy Orton at the 2008 Royal Rumble.

Mr. Nerfect 02-08-2018 08:03 AM

Stephanie McMahon's genital mutilator gimmick is one of the worst I've ever seen.
