regal oversells

It really annoys me.

He gets "hit" and falls down in pain everytime.
Overselling is such a pain, I think it really degenerates from a match

having regal oversell to batista is ok, but to flair...i just htink is ridiculous

opinions on regal's overselling?

Oversellng isn't as big a problem in WWE as underselling.

IMO, I like Regal right now. He may oversell sometimes, but he is still a much better performer than many others on the current roster.

I've never really thought he did. Maybe he's changed a little... Billy Gunn and The Rock were always the ones I thought really oversold, though Rocky was pretty hilarious in doing it.

I dont think Regal oversells all the time. He did at Unforgiven that was for sure. Usually he does pretty good but he was just crazy at the ppv.

so was Flair. although, that was the best Flair match i've seen for years (because of the "flops" & being held up by Benoit )

I don't think Regal overselling is that much of a problem. I mean, he cuts great promo's & isn't a bad worker

A Regal/Benoit tag tem could be entertaining for a few weeks IMO

I didn't like the way Kane took the Sweet Chin Music.

I didn't like Tomko and Richards selling punches that never came, at the same time.

98 Royal Rumble? More like every single time he took the stunner.

WrestleMania XV was the worst though, because that was THE match of the night, and I was laughing my ass off when the third count fell because of how bad Rock oversold the Stunner. I think he rolled over four times, then one more just to be sure.

I don't mind it when a wrestler oversells, as long as a scoop slam, a vertical suplex, or dropkick doesn't cause an oversell from hell. What annoys me is when someone undersells, or doesn't sell at all. Undertaker with his badass gimmick, or Lesnar just sucked when it came to selling.

Actually, Lesnar was pretty damn good at selling, especially for a big guy. Heck, I remember one of his first matches against Matt Hardy... he got low blowed and sold it for half of the rest of the match instead of ten seconds like other people usually do.

Maybe he wasn't selling. He might have been so shocked that a man touched his balls that they shrunk up inside of him and every motion he made caused him physical pain.





He's a homophobe.

Regal is overselling for a reason. Go back to when he was decimated by HHH 2 weeks ina row. This is to show that the damage done by HHH is still causing imense pain. This is basically selling the beating rather than selling individual matches and spots.
