Overrated and Underrated (Podcast Question)
So, for our next podcast, we're going to talk about the things in wrestling history that get either too much or too little praise, and look at the reasons why. Looking for some feedback to read on the show (and credit your fine selves for contributing), so:
What is the ONE thing (angle/match/wrestler/show/whatever) that you feel is overrated more than anything else, and ONE thing you personally feel is most underrated, and explain why. Should lead to some good debate on the forum as well. Whaddya think?

Overrated :- Royal Rumble (love the concept, but think the execution has been lacklustre for a while, maybe missing Pat Patterson?)
Underrated :- Dolph Ziggler (One of the best workers in the company and should be higher up the card) |

Overrated: The knife edge chop. Stop slapping his sturdy chest and just punch him in the face, you big fanny.

Overrated: RVD. Just been coasting on ECW rep since leaving ECW. Just terrible and boring, but somehow just manages to coast on having something for fans to chant and his ECW rep.
Under-rated: Who else but.... Christian |

Podcast recorded and uploaded! Got so much feedback we broke it into two shows, starting with the Underrated. A hell of a show with some good discussion on DDP, Ronnie Garvin, Mick Foley, Terry Taylor, Randy Orton's 2004 push, WWE music videos, Christian, The Dangerous Alliance, and a lot more.

I realize it's too late
I'd like to add the following to the list though. Underrated - AWA prior to 1986 was really a great organization. Overrated - WCCW (Gee how many times can we see the Von Erichs win before that gets boring) |
