HHH-way over rated and like was said before he always played second fiddle. He's like Lex Luger when Sting and Flair wooooooooooooooo! were really over in the late 80s-early 90s.

Mr. Kennedy; just never really got his schtick and why anyone gave a fuck about him in WWE; then went to TNA and became even more irrelevant.

I've never been a HHH fan. I've respected the fact that he did what it took to get to the top, but in the end, I've enjoyed many more HHH matches than Mr. Kennedy/Anderson matches.

There's too many guys I have soft spots for. I could actually make you a list.

But I'll go with who I think I have the biggest soft spot for.

Soft: Steven Richards
Cold: Sting

Evil Vito
02-08-2013, 05:50 PM
<font color=goldenrod>Soft Spot: Deuce 'n Domino. Seriously I loved these guys - the gimmick was ridiculous, but it made them stand out.

Cold: Bret Hart. I'll never say the guy wasn't super talented or anything, but I just never had the raging hard on for him that most of the internet has.</font>

Cold Shoulder: Randy Orton. I just do not see what everyone else apparently sees in him, never have, probably never will.

Soft Spot: Tazz in his WWE run (I never watched ECW, but after seeing Tazz beat Angle at the Rumble I was clamoring for this guy to get huge. Then he faded a bit and I was pretty bummed. But when he had his one-off with Austin on RAW (when he was wearing a Tazz t-shirt instead of the Alliance one) I was hoping Tazz would take Austin down and ride that momentum to a meaningful WWE run. Whoops. Never happened.

Cold Shoulder: Eddie Guerrero. He was a technician and I appreciated him in the ring, but never was really huge on him. Thought his main event run was just stupid and not believable. (and part of me agrees with Nash that pro wrestling died at WMXX because of the Guerrero/Benoit ending).

Honorable mention to Rey Mysterio, but after seeing him live a couple years back I came around on him. That guy flies around the ring and makes it look effortless. And his match with Cody Rhodes at Mania a couple years ago was really good.

Soft Spot - Goldust, loved the character from the start, seemed to challenge the norms and he really stood out. Had hoped he would reach a few main event feuds over the title, but the card was stacked at his peak.

Cold Shoulder - Edge, never really got invested in any of his storylines and felt that he got tiresome and it will prob do his legacy the world of good that he was forced to retire younger.

Soft Spot: JOHN MORRISON. Yes, I know he couldn't cut a promo to save his life, but jesus christ he could go in the ring.

Cold SHoulder: Ryback. Fuck this guy

Randy Orton.... he's okay, counters nicely with the RKO but eh.. I see him as more of a plan B guy.

Now, or back when you were little. People claim they have always disliked Hogan and I think they base it on the past 10 years and leave out they were Hogan fans when they were 7 years old because they feel they lose Smark cred.

I'm the most brilliant wrestling mind around and I freely admit I loved Hogan in the WWF and WCW. He was the best face of the 90's and best heel of the 90's.

He was also the best face of the 80s. When I was little I remember watching SNME and when Real American hit I would cheer the TV. His no selling was legendary lol. Punch, punch, punch, hulk up, punch, "YOU!" block, punch, punch, punch, irish whip, big boot, leg drop.
