Worst wrestler of all time?

Recommended Posts

Guest Maven's Eyebrows

Taking into accound all criteria (ring skills, charisma, etc.), who would you consider the worst wrestler of all time?

 

I'm really too lazy to put together a list right now, but slugs such as Mabel/Viscera, New Jack, Mustafa, Ed Leslie, and legendary Kevin Nash (although he did have charisma) would all be on it.

Despite having watchable matches at times...

 

my vote goes to the undertaker.

 

No man has spent more time in the spotlight making others look bad.

Kevin Nash.

 

He almost killed the WWF once, and was arguably the biggest factor in WCW's death (along with Hogan, Russo & AOL). He was well on his way to killing the WWF (along with HHH) when he got hurt. HHH is doing enough damage now, but it would be far worse if Nash was around with him.

 

On top of that, he is one of the worst in-ring performers ever. Sid was just as bad, but he wasn't nearly as lazy and was far more bearable to watch. Even Giant Gonzales seemed like he was trying. I have never seen anyone as slow as Nash, when he's half-assing it (almost every match).

 

He is the most damaging wrestler in the history of the industry, and one of the worst talentwise. He is far and away the worst wrestler ever.

Brock Les..

 

Okay, okay. Fine.

 

Honorable mentions go to Ross' Hosses (Bull, Albert, Rikishi, Mark Henry, Bubba Ray, Big Show, etc..)

 

But I'll agree that the Undertaker is.

i agree with Ramsus about Nash, he took bullshit to new levels. I have to say though, his charisma is undeniable, and when he started he wasn't THAT bad in-ring, so i wouldn't strictly call him the worst WRESTLER.

 

I've seen one match, and on in-ring ability i'll go with Giant Singh. He fucked up a whip.

 

I actually didn't have much against viscera towards the end of his run, again you couldn't call him GOOD, but his look was great. Tell me you didn't find him A TAD intimidating.

 

Sid did always try, and again had decent charisma, so he's passable. But Singh was alarming.

oh and i've just remembered, on the coliseum british bulldogs tape there's matches of them vs Beefcake and valentine, and i was astounded at how OK leslie was in a heel team. Honestly. I guess Hulk rubbed off on him as time went on.

 

Edit: i won't post wh0re any longer, i just have to say that yes, mustafa may indeed be worse than singh. Maybe.

Beefcake was actually better afterwards during the Barber era. The only reason he was good in the Dream Team was because he came in, did his moves, and let Valentine do all the work. But Beefcake was pretty good for awhile before the injury.

 

BTW, obviously Nash isn't the worst in-ring performer ever, but when considering the big picture, he is the worst.

 

In ring only, I think it is Giant Gonzales.

the Harris Brothers, the bald biker twins who were part of the gang wars. Never liked them ever.

 

Rayo de Jalisco is the worst luchadore in all time that gets regular tv time, he is even worst than the members of the Capos who he regularly wrestle.

Gaint Gonzallas, Tiger Ali Seigh, Tiger Jeet Seign, The Shiek.

 

But the alltime worst wrestler ever is a tie between Greg Gagne and Erik Watts.

Andre the Giant

Obviously you only watched Andre during his last few years in WWF as overall the man would sell out territories, was an intriguing character, and had the aura of invincibility wherever he went......

 

 

My choice is Giant Gonzalez...

It is...Of Course...AHMED JOHNSON (AKA Big T).

 

The lowest of the low...

 

Not one redeming quality. I mean at least Gonzalez had that funny suit thing, but Ahmed purely sucked.

 

Here are the reasons:

 

1.He was green as grass

2.Got winded straight away

3.Had an awful kick-punch moveset

4.Was the sloppiest wrestler in history (I saw this guy fuck up a punch)

5.Lazy

6.Awful on the mic

7.Injury prone

8.Prone to injuring others

9.His tendency to wedgie his trunks up the crack of his ass

10.Bad bumper

11.He had the ability to make every move he did look bad

12.Couldn't sell for shit

13.His occasional Godzilla-like wails as he performed his moves (watch Spring Stampede 2000 for a prime example)

Actually it was Xanta Claus. Or maybe Klaus. I know the "Xanta" is right anyway.

 

My vote for worst wrestler goes to... El Gigante. He was just painfully bad to watch and not even Ric f'n Flair good pull a good match out of him.

Ahmed was actually a decent wrestler until he got fat & lzay (cough Big T days). His PP matches vs. Jarrett, Goldust, andf the 6 man tag from 1996 were all pretty good, and at the least watchable. His only problem was he didnt know how to work threw long matches 1 on 1, but I don't consider that a worst ever. My vote goes to Big Vis/Mabel of MOM these guys are stinking up my TV.

Erm...no he wasn't. He was the pits...long before his Big T days.

 

The match with Goldust was good? Are we talking about the match where Goldust gave him mouth-to-mouth?

 

Personally, I thought it was a pile of shit.

Only reason I don't vote Ahmed as worst ever is because people like Erik Watts existed.

Eh........at least Ahmed had some power moves and charisma.....of course when he started to talk me and my friends would look at each other to see if anyone knew what the hell he was mumbling....and honestly, Mabel WAS terrible.....but, at least the guy TRIED sometimes

 

My vote goes to the laziest, uncharasmatic, completelt lost......El Gigante/Giant Gonzalez or maybe even Giant Silva from the Oddities. These 2 guys were only signed to wrestle cause they were basketball players who couldnt make it. NEither one of them EVER improved a shits worth. Watching them gave me heartburn

Mabel DID try his hardest at least but it seeme dlike he didnt care past his WWF run in 1996. El Gigante/Giant Gonzalez WAS terrible. Hell, i thought he WAS giant Silva. lol. It's hard to blame the guy ebcause he neve rintended to eb a wrestler til Ted Turner (who owned the Atlanta Hawks I think) took him from that because of his bad knees and made him a WRESTLER. (Geez, the guy can hardly move anymore playing basketball WHY not slap some tights on him and say hes wrestling). I'm pretty sure 90% of the independent circuit have WORSE wrestlers then ANYONE mentioned. Atle ast Erik Watts could do an arm-bar, which he basically he used a whole 8 minute match, haha.

I am going to go with the Iron Sheik. He was horrible in the ring. Plus he was the the first guy to lay down for Hulkamania. So actually you can trace WCW's decline to the Iron Sheik for a different person to blame for the downfall.
