Most overated wrestler
 
Who would you say is the most overated wrestler?
I'd say Kurt Angle

moshingfreak 01-06-2004 04:53 AM

The Rock

moshingfreak 01-06-2004 04:55 AM

Kurts not an overated wrestler, because he CAN actually wrestle. The Rock can dance around, and thats about it.

Nowhere Man 01-06-2004 05:05 AM

Randy Orton

TazroK 01-06-2004 05:07 AM

It'd say Benoit. Or Angle. OHHH WOW A SUPLEX!!! HES SOOOO KEWL! Anyone can throw a suplex. Totally overrated.

c4g2 01-06-2004 05:26 AM

Orton.

Sephiroth 01-06-2004 06:38 AM

The Rock.

Paranoid Rattlesnake 01-06-2004 07:34 AM

You guys are thinking one thing and saying another. You don't win olympic gold by being overrated.

Also The Rock rules

He won gold in amateur wrestling not pro wrestling, two different things. Saying someones overated doesn't meen you dont like them.

Do define overrated "wrestler" for me???

BeadlesClaw 01-06-2004 08:33 AM

Bret Hart. "Best there is, Best there was..... blah blah" The guy was average, at best. The Sharpshooter looks much better on superstars such as the Rock - and spitting at "Grampa" Shawwwwwwnnnn Michaels is just dirty. All he did was wriggle around, posing in his PVC pants.... there are many better wrestlers around who havent recieved the same push as he did....

The Game 01-06-2004 08:36 AM

I agree with Beadles Claw, over-rated is a difficult criteria to judge, but if we jusdge over-rated on those wrestlers who were given pushes that weren't justified then I would say the following-

Over-Rated: Jericho, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels.
Under-Rated (Not pushed as much as should have been): Hulk Hogan, Goldberg, Triple H.

Dude, go wank yourself.

BeadlesClaw 01-06-2004 08:51 AM

That's a very immature response. "The Game" responded to the previous post accordingly - just because the view is different to yours doesnt make it any less valid, and certainly doesnt agree with an uncouth response from a P.C Thug.

Go to bed, little boy.

The wrestler who you feel recieves too much praise.

Sorry, was that a comeback? The only thing big about you is the dick up your ass mate. You've brought me down to your level, you really have. I apologise to the other posters, I really do. You really should grow up - everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Isnt the US the land of free speech?

Who is this directed at?
Lesnar is my second choice.

blake639raw 01-06-2004 11:21 AM

Christopher Daniels - He's a really good worker, and can put on a helluva match, but people on the net talk about him like he's friggin Kurt Angle.

John la Rock 01-06-2004 11:54 AM

There is NO WAY IN HELL That The Rock is Overated. NO ONE AND I MEAN NO ONE can cut a better promo than the great one and he is also a great worker. He deserved all the success he's had so far.

As for as the most overrated Id say Goldberg

Yeah I know Bret sucks. All he ever did was put on great match after great match for 15 yrs. His matches with Owen, Dynamite, Perfect, Bulldog, Shawn, Austin, Rockers, Demolition, Brainbusters, Piper, Benoit are some of the worst matches of all-time. He was an a**hole too as he always was willing to put whomever over and never whined or complained about it. What a jackass.

FlashyT01 01-06-2004 12:04 PM

HHH Randy Orton and Lesnar

Yeah really, do you people know what underated even means.

Underated wrestlers for me are guys like Orient Express, Hakushi, Killer Bees, Heel Doink (Matt Borne), Lance Storm. Guys who are all good workers but never really got the appreciation they deserevd.

Stickman 01-06-2004 12:57 PM

Overrated

Brock Lesner, Kane, Sting, Hulk Hogan, Mark Henry, Big Show, Mic Foley (Sorry but he's not that great of a wrestler), Buff Bagewell, the list goes on and on so i'll stop now

loopydate 01-06-2004 01:01 PM

Foley.

He was an awesome bumper, but every "great" match he ever had was either a spotfest or he was carried by someone like the Rock or HBK.

targo_the_sho_stopa 01-06-2004 01:20 PM

in terms of personal belief, I'm sick and tired of havin the "Legend Licker" Randy Suckass shoved down my throat every week when there are guys like Mark Jindrak and Sean O'Haire with talent who get no exposure.
As for being pushed and labelled great for no earthly reason-again, Orton and I think Brock from time to time as being overrated, get him out the main event and let other guys show their stuff. I would also have to say (as strange as it sounds) Trish, highly overrated, granted its different rankings completely.

Fryza 01-06-2004 02:32 PM

Chris Jericho
Mick Foley
The Rock
Steve Austin
Undertaker
Kane

Just my opinions.

Kane Knight 01-06-2004 02:59 PM

Rated by who?

See, there's the KAYFABE rating. People like HHH, Kane, Taker, Big Show, Austin.

Then, there's the fan and "smark" ratings. People like Rocky, Jericho, Angle, Benoit, depending on your typical disposition.

Almost all of the internet favorites are overrated. Nobody's as good as some of these people are hyped to be, no matter how awesome Bret Hart, Kurt Angle, and Chris Benoit are.

Similarly, almost all the Main eventers who are hyped are overrated by the WWE. There are a ton of factors into who is "overrated" and who isn't, because for every rating, there's a counterpoint.

The Icon of Elisim 01-06-2004 03:08 PM

Edge, I like him but not as a maineventer

FakeLaser 01-06-2004 03:25 PM

Low-Ki
Edge
Brock Lesnar (He sucks in every way)

Moron. First of all, the moves a wrestler does doesn't make a great wrestler. It's how it's all put together. Mick Foley doesn't do many moves, but he's a great wrestler because of the way he puts his matches together. There's guys like The Amazing Red, Jeff Hardy, etc, who do a shitload of moves, but they suck because they can't put a match together. Also, I highly doubt a lot of the roster can do a dozen German suplexes in one match.

Angle is one of the greatest in ring performers ever. He can do everything in the ring, and he's great outside of the ring as well. He might be the most total package wrestling has ever seen. Really, what's overrated about him? The guy can brawl like Foley, mat wrestle like Chris Benoit, cut promos like The Rock, and has a moonsault that puts most crusierweights to shame. He also has no ego backstage, causes no problems, and works his ass; willing to work through career ending, even life threatening injury. It's just a shame that he won't get to accomplish as much as he could have.

I won't even touch that.

Also, The Rock rules.

[B]Brock Lesnar is the most over rated wrestler I've ever seen, period.

Mr. Nerfect 01-06-2004 05:00 PM

Chris Benoit & Eddie Guerrero. They're just not as good as everyone thinks they are.
