‘I can’t even watch you’

[JLM]

The combination of The Iron Savages and Jacked Jameson is up there with my most hated acts in wrestling ever. Caused a real visceral reaction in me that made me almost physically unable to endure watching them. I'm very glad that act is no more.

Hardcore Holly is one for me. I know people like the Brock stuff but I cannot fucking stand the bloke. His music used to trigger instant boredom in me.  Boring look, boring gear, boring personality, boring promos, boring in-ring style, boring entrance, boring theme music, didn't like him as a babyface, didn't hate him as a heel. Just a soul crushingly dull performer to me. II have never felt a shred of investment in or connection with anything he's ever done.

Dino Bravo forever and ever. Heard he was good before he looked like a boulder trying to lumber through quicksand in his WWF run. Couldn't care. His greatest legacy is probably the first person I saw doing that move Stephanie Vaquer does smacking the opponent into the mat with her knees. A terrible waste of time that man, I can't even watch him being squashed in three minutes against Kerry Von Erich because it means THREE uninterrupted minutes of Dino Bravo. He's been dead 32 years and somehow the bench press segment from the 1988 Royal Rumble feels like it's still going on today. Horseshit!

Ugh, do I have to look that up because it sounds as shit as Dino Bravo.

Edge or Cope is one for me just because I know who's winning specially his AEW run. 

In WWE it's probably Alister Black, never been a fan, and is always protected. 

From the past that would be for me Typhoon.

Jeff Jarrett. Sorry lads.

I don’t mind him as much doing his babyface veteran role as he did recently in AEW, but he was an absolute chore to watch for virtually his entire TNA run, and I even include the Double J Double MA stuff in that!

He’s my absolute least favourite part of attitude era Raws, and was unbearable in his 1997 WCW run with the Horseman storyline. In fact, I reckon his Raw return promo in 1997 (the one where Austin stunned him after if I remember correctly) is possibly my least favourite promo ever.

Fortunately I’ve not seen much of his later WCW run, but I’m currently watching Nitro from beginning to end (because I’m a sicko) and I’m already dreading him popping up again.

P-I-Double-S O-Double-F.

Big Show has always annoyed me in that way. Like he should be good at something, even looking treathening while stationary, but he could never even do that properly. I suppose the crap name didn't help. But it doesn't matter if it was attitide era Show, the time they were stuck and tried to pretend he was a threat to Brock, knocking around with Jericho being a boring tag team, the Mayweather stuff or the time he tried to steal Bryan's yes chant. He's always been a frustrating, annoying bastard. Every time I'd hear that stupid theme song intro '(Welllll') I knew the next 20 minutes would be dull as fuck. 

Is there any one else in wrestling who started out incredible and got slowly worse and worst as they went on? If you watch the first six months of his career you'd think you were seeing the next megastar in wrestling. Fast forward a few years and he's dressing up as Val fucking Venis.

Can I throw in Triple H (currently) and Tony Khan? Any time either show up on screen, I skip. Triple H’s self-promotion is unbearable, and Tony Khan is just so painfully awkward it makes me cringe.

[SwayWays]

Seth Rollins for me especially his first WHC run/ or as WM40 "Cody's mate afterthought". 

I just find something sickeningly disingenuous about, he's like a WWE SD! Vs Raw create a wrestler, were all his moves are finishers, but are kicked out at whim.. 

He trys to portray WM main event/ECW/Fighting spirit in bog standard, but he just looks like someone who forgets to sell, then fills his matches with meaningless nearfalls. 

 

His over the top voice, when he tries to act tough, or intimidating, then there's the "I've seen the trailer to Joker 9 times" "character" which was like an American kid trying to show confidence and charisma by shouting, and dressing like he's been attacked by the washbasket at Sam smiths house. 

 

I don't wish injury on anyone, but I was so disappointed when he dropped the crutches pre cash in.

Randy Orton for me!!!

From day one hes been 'fast forward' or  'turn the channel' fodder for me.

Boring look, boring moveset, dull promo.

Guy has had a near 25 year career at the top with the charisma of Dean Malenko

I literally havent enjoyed one thing hes ever done!!!

[Callum1993]

Bray Wyatt after his initial run before he became The Fiend. Every feud was exactly the same. He’d randomly attack a Face whether it was Reigns, Cena,  Ambrose, Ryback etc say ‘They are lying to you maaaan’ and then proceed to have a generally poor feud with a poor match. Thankfully he’s normally lose those feuds. The Fiend reinvigorated his act for a while but again that ultimately fell to poor booking.

Natalya for me, dined on being Jim’s Daughter/Bret’s Niece for over 15 years and she hasn’t done much in the ring, her second and last title win being 8 years ago. She also seems to flip flop between being the (laughable) BOAT when she’s on tv to the (even more laughable) Low Key Legend hard case gimmick when she’s made appearances for GCW and NWA

One of their long-running bits in the comments section is that Dino Bravo is the worst, a bit that should've been put to bed a long time ago.
