View Full Version : Who should NOT have been made the champion?


BizarroKing

Since we had a topic about people that should have been champions, I felt we should have a topic that covers the opposite: Who was a champion (any champion) that simply didn't deserve it
(examples could include: Not a good wrestler, wrong gimmick, too soon, etc)

So far, the only one I have is: David Arquette (self-explanatory)

Honestly, R Truth as US champ should have never happened. His work up to to that point had been no more than average, and he only kept it for what a week? maybe 2? Their was no point for it.

I actually feel it's a shame though as I was a fan of his during his time in TNA and when 1st informed of his arrival in WWE I had high expectations. But he was more or less buried.

Why not? He's decent in the ring and hugely "over" with the crowd. What's Up?

The only thing I liked about him in TNA was the early days when he was the racist black guy and holding the TNA title bashing all the rednecks. His run in 3LK was decent, that angle had so much potential, but TNA...you know.

Ric Flair winning the IC belt. He was already old, boring and washed up when he won it. I feel his 16 World titles should have been enough. When he held the IC title I felt he was taking away from the younger guys instead of trying to give back. He didn't need or deserve the IC belt in my opinion.

His character has never been about world titles or any title for that matter. He was blessed as tag champion with his brother Undertaker which serviced a few good storylines...But yeah, Kane didn't need and doesn't need a title to be relevant.


He realizes this it seems so good for him.

I don't count Arquette cos that's a fucking joke not to be believed.

Khali, Mysterio, Big Show, Batista (pretty much all times).. fuck even McMahon himself, although it did suit the feud and that was just mega over back then and it was 6 days!, Backlund in 94 too.

In recent times, Seamus and Swagger's reigns came too early imo. I'd have loved Miz in the title frame more than Seamus, especially with his mad "streak" thing with Cena a while back. That built him up nice. Seamus is not bad at all, just feel it was "rushed" and well ahead of time. Swagger, well, I like him, but I think there's not enough interest in him.

One minute he's this fat, Texas redneck in a cowboy hat carrying a cowbell on a rope, and the next he's this slick New York asshole who can actually talk. Anyways, as much as I enjoyed JBL from time to time, I never felt he deserved to carry the WWE Championship; especially considering he took it from Eddie Guerrero. Imagine if it had been Eddie as Champion against the rising star of John Cena? A heel Latino Heat and a still-hot Cena? Yeah. That should've happened.

Brock Lesner was pushed way too quickly.

Maybe but the thing with Lesnar is that he got insanely over in a very short amount of time. They booked him to be dominant from the get go, going over the Hardys, RVD, etc.

It's not as if he entered the title picture without any heat form the crowd or any buildup, unlike Sheamus and Swagger, who were just inserted into the title picture at the most random of times.

JBL worked mostly because he was against Eddie. Eddie could get a good match out of a shit wrestler, and bradshaw was a shit wrestler.

Anyway, it was a bad idea which did really come from the fact that Vince liked him.

I have no doubt in my mind that if Brock had stayed in the WWE, he would have been even bigger. The only thing that probably would have held Brock back and probably did hold Brock back was his lack of passion. A WWE Superstar needs to have passion to excel. That's the key, IMO, and let's face it - it's one of the reasons why John Cena is so popular in the WWE Universe.

However, Brock WAS a breath of fresh air at the time and he delivered. He showed incredible in-ring psychology, physical ability, and athleticism in all of his matches. He had the look that was menacing and intimidating. He had a finisher that was unique and devastating. His intensity was unrivaled. I don't agree with the person who said Brock shouldn't have been the champion.

Re: Kevin Nash - His original run in WWF as Diesel I was 10-12 years old. I loved this guy. I have not gone back and rewatched anything from his title reigns but I assume I'd still enjoy his work.

He did get lazy in WCW because he could be. He could talk & get over with his gimmick. Once the writing aspect got lazy he never really did step it up. Dunno why other than you may be correct that he is just lazy all together.

In TNA I haven't seen him wrestle yet. He still looks damn good as of last night and am enjoying seeing him come out with some actual emotion and not that "is he high" look all over his face. Time will tell if he gets into it again or not. It's take it or leave it for right now.


But saying that he shouldn't have been champ in WWF is what I disagree with. As a child I could not have agreed more with the WWF's decision to put the title on him.





Re: Yokozuna - He was over. Big time. He had a hated heel manager and the biggest mouthpiece in the company behind him in Jim Cornette. He made a good monster trans champion. Glad he never held the title as a face because that could have and would have been a train wreck. But for his time period and his character it was the only perfect timing for him to get a title reign in in his life / career.

I completely disagree with you, and think he actually put on some entertaining matches for a guy his size. Don't you remember him doing his sidekicks, and then delivering a legdrop that could crush a skull? Do you remember how devastating his BONZAI drop seemed, and when he bonzai dropped the hell out of Hogan over and over again? Its unfortunate that he put on so much weight, but IMO he held a reign of terror as champion.

Most likely a pipe dream, but I can still hope.

It really annoys me when they change the name of the title whenever Mysterio wins it. Look, it's the World Heavyweight Title and Rey Mysterio stepped up to win it. Don't remove the "Heavyweight" just because of that. If you don't want guys who aren't heavyweights to win your Heavyweight Title, then don't book them to do such.

That being said, I don't really have a problem with Rey winning the title. He's a great talent. His first reign was booked into oblivion, though, and his second win came at a wrong point in time (Swagger was doing fine, and CM Punk was the other guy in the match that could have used the win). It being used as a bargaining chip makes sense, given that they wanted Rey to stay, but is a bit messy.

I've got a gut feeling that Mysterio won't be walking out of Money in the Bank "World Champion," though. It may be Swagger, it may be McIntyre or it may be Christian; but I have a feeling someone is taking the gold.

On an unrelated note:

I find it really odd that in discussions of bad champions, one who never comes up is Vince Russo. At least David Arquette's win was done as a publicity stunt. Who the fuck was Vince Russo to deserve a fluke win? But I didn't watch at the time, so maybe I was missing something?

Yeah the belt was put on Stasiak because the company wanted Bruno Sammartino as its champion, but didn't want Sammartino to defeat current champion Pedro Morales in the process. Stasiak was champion from December 1, 1973 to December 10, 1973, although he did have the talent and ability to hold the title longer.

DDP was so incredibly over in WCW it's not even funny. Even if he wasn't Bischoff's buddy, he deserved it anyways. He had awesome feuds and matches, cut great promos, and got the crowd fired up. He was a key player in the WCW vs. nWo storyline.

I'm not too mad about Swagger. I like the idea of Vince giving fresh faces a chance to sink or swim. It worked for Punk and Sheamus (he's grown on me), and I kinda want to see Miz cash in and go over Orton, even though Orton's the man right now.

Wasn't Brody in World Class or maybe even Japan during Hogan's title run? You can't just pull someone who was working for a completely different company and use him to back up your claim that Hogan should have never been made champion.

Hogan's gimmick and look was perfect at the time and other than Macho Man or maybe Warrior later, I don't think anyone could have had his success in terms of drawing power and merchandising. Sure there were better wrestlers or better guys on the mic, but Hogan just inexplicably connected with fans.

Your claim was that there were a THOUSAND other wrestlers who could do what Hogan did. I asked you to name 5.

Its all about the Charisma and how they carry there selves. I mean what really got Hogan over was the Merchandise.

Yeah you keep saying things like it's what I asked. Yet it's not what I asked. Hmm


Now please name the 5 wrestlers. You've got over 1000 to choose from.

Now are you losing sleep over this? Is it causing you extreme bouts of pain? Did it cause you to get laid off your job. Have you ended a relationship with aGirlfriend/Boyfriend? Because you must know these 5 wrestlers.

If i don't answer this question what are the consequences?

So because I don't answer your question it means I am full of shit. I mean you told me to name five wrestlers days ago. So it has bothered you so bad that you have bump about it until you get your way.

You can't always get what you want. I mean why has it bothered you that bad.

I don't even think I could name a thousand wrestlers. Yet you apparently not only know a thousand, but can name a thousand that could've been as good as or better than Hulk Hogan.

Its figure of speech and if its an internet flame war you are looking for go elsewhere. I may have numbers in my Name but in no way does that make me a troll. So take you bait plant it elsewhere because you have the wrong man.

Look I understand you make polls around here that means you are big timer. But this is just forum not Locker room so before you think that I am some Newbie who must be hazed. Think about where you are at.

Umm in the Early 80's Snuka was on fire and as for Ric Flair when was the last Hogan wrestled in front of 190,000 people.
