What wrestler(s) makes you/made you "Change the Channel"
For me it was Test. I hated Test until he started killing people with his Big Boot, and even then I just wanted to skip to the finish.
Shane Douglas is also at the top. |

Stephanie McMahon she sucked any enjoyment I was having watching raw out of it.

Super Cena. Big Slow. Roidin' Reigns. Miz did for awhile as well but he grew on me eventually.

Tbf, it’s rare I watch a segment in its entirety as I watch after the fact I find myself skipping a lot. Usually skip most of the women’s stuff, Moxley on AEW gets skipped a fair bit.

Hilariously, Mox is pretty skippable in AEW, but everything he did in New Japan is fucking gold. It's the same guy... why the fuck is he so "meh" here?!?

I don't think he has done anything memorable since the unsanctioned match with Omega. I think AEW should have moved the belt over to MJF, because at least it would be more interesting. It's well past the time when they should have put a singles title on a non WWE guy, and MJF is really the only heel that himself is a non WWE guy with no attached former WWE guy as his mouthpiece. I'm also not counting Eddie Kingston, because I'm still not sure if he is a mouthpiece who also wrestles sometimes like M.V.P., or if he is going to consistently compete himself. |

And moreover, there is no way you can enjoy the full scope of any show while skipping back and forth between products. It doesn't make sense. Now in a less critical note of you. I absolutely love Mox in AEW. I think he is the absolute top guy in the business right now from character to promo to matches. You really couldn't ask for a better World Champion, for my money. I do think he will lose to Omega on the 2nd but I don't think that story will end there. I do worry what his arch will be without the belt but I have faith. |

He's apparently pretty personable and a really nice guy and deserves good things because of that, but this ain't it, chief. Unless there is something he can portray besides stoic badass or cowardly hypocrite - and do it CONVINCINGLY - he needs to just go away from television. Hell, even put him in a Zeed mask and have him join Retribution. |

Corban... terrible.
Triple H mid massive promo, love the entrance, can live with the ring work normally but as soon as he raises a mic to his lips I'm changing the channel normally. Stephanie Mc Mahon, never seen the appeal. Bray Wyatt... Just kooky and not entertaining to me, in any of his versions tbh. |

Definitely Shane Douglas for me too. He is actually a pretty terrible wrestler on top of having a grating personality and an awful look. The Franchise was as forced as they come and I can’t remember enjoying any of his matches, despite loving ECW.
The one my brother and I talk about is DOA/Los Bariquas endless feud on Raw, week after week. It didn’t matter what combo, none of them were over and any combination of them was an immediate piss break/channel change. |

Yep, Corbin. I didn't mind him for his first year, year and a half on the main roster. But he became more and more of a focal point of programming and I just don't get it.

Definitely changed the channel during a lot of divas matches from like 2005-15.
It was one thing when I was a horny 13 year old happy to see hot women any way I could. But then it was like, yeah I could see any of them in a bikini with a simple google search, don't need to waste time watching them do this horrible attempt at wrassling. |

Also Alberto Del Rio.
It wasn't because he wasn't talented or couldn't fit a promo, he filled in the numbers but he was lacking something that kept me entertained |

Mark Henry between Sexual Chocolate and his ECW run. Don't know why I just couldn't get into him at all during that time.
I'll jump on the Baron Corbin train too. Super boring. And more recently the Garza/Andrade vs. Street Profits feud. It just seemed like they faced each other on every RAW for six months. Couldn't take it. |

I actually liked it... what little bit there was of it. On top of the theme, the hype package the titantron was made from was pretty hype about the then recent MetRx strongman win, and the intangible charisma bit where he didn't have to cut a promo and controlled the crowd volume with his hands. Seemed poised for a decent, refreshed babyface push, then he apparently got hurt again. I personally think it's sad to not know how that run may or may not have ended up. Might have sucked ass, might have been great in its simplicity with the crowd behind him in a "right time, right place" scenario. Then again, him not being injury prone might not have led to the "THAT'S WHAT I DO!!!" badass heel Mark Henry we'd eventually get, or, more importantly, the infamous salmon suit jacket. |
