Guest Redhawk Report post Posted March 4, 2003 Could it be... Test -- From tonight: "I'm telling you, Stacy. Nothing...DID...happen!" And those facial expressions, man. Test would be considered a bad actor in the porn industry. Scott Steiner -- Just for the sheer fact that he blows his lines all the time. Stephanie McMahon -- She's gotten better, but still... Vince McMahon -- Kind of over-the-top for me. Stacy Keibler -- Aside from when she played dead from the chairshot, I've never been convinced by anything she does. Any other possibilities?

Guest Downhome Report post Posted March 4, 2003 I think RVD is pretty horrid at doing anything other than just "cocky heel" (but that's just because he acts as he does not, but the fans hate it because they deem it cocky because he's a heel, lol) and "cool". The guy simply needs work to be an all around better character if he wishes to EVER be a true player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AndrewTS Report post Posted March 4, 2003 Test, definitely. Vince is hammy, and senile, and behind the times--but he can get a point across well. Stacy goes through the motions. Not good, not really bad. Big Poppa Mush Mouth is unintelligible, but not really a bad actor. When Steph acts whorish--even she can't screw that up. Though whenever she completely changes personality and moves from heel to face several times in the same show, ugh. She really sucks, but I think it's the fact that she can't make up her mind what role she's playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheHulkster Report post Posted March 4, 2003 After seeing her commentary last week on Raw, Victoria deserves an honorable mention. She was just atrocious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Psycho Diablo Report post Posted March 4, 2003 Test is a taller carbon-copy of Billy Gunn. Seriously. Triple H rambles on for WAY too long. At least when Rocky does it, his voice dosen't have this monotone sleep-inducing quality. Austin? He's got the "I'll kick your ass" look, and the "let me grin, and THEN I'll kick your ass" look.

Guest jester Report post Posted March 4, 2003 After seeing her commentary last week on Raw, Victoria deserves an honorable mention. She was just atrocious. Victoria is pretty bad. That whole bit about having a past with Trish was pretty lame, but someone with some acting talent might have been able to pull something out of it. But not Victoria. They should just make her a complete psycho and scratch and growl a lot. Test is my vote for the worst on the male side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Downhome Report post Posted March 4, 2003 I think Test is far better at being pissed and showing emotion than RVD is. At least he can seemingly try to do something other than one mood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Redhawk Report post Posted March 4, 2003 I forgot to mention Torrie Wilson. Here'e a woman who still can't pull off a convincing segment with her real-life boyfriend, even though they've been together for years. Yeah, so maybe Kidman deserves some blame there, but Torrie also couldn't pull off a realistic skit with her real-life father, either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AndrewTS Report post Posted March 4, 2003 I'd blocked it all out, but now that Redhawk mentioned it--Dom Maurie and either of the damned Wilsons. Kidman sucks, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Jobber of the Week Report post Posted March 4, 2003 Ric Flair. *ducks* Really, I can't tell what the hell he's talking about most the time. I watched the Last Nitro and saw this Flair guy who I'd seen before flipping past TBS. All I really recognized was that he was old and way overtanned. Anyway, so he starts this promo about the heart and soul of WCW or something like that and then challenges Sting, and all I could think is "What the hell did he just say?" The fact that everyone called it one of his hottest promos ever almost made me choke on my sandwich. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest creativename Report post Posted March 4, 2003 RVD worse than Test? HA. RVD is pretty bad, but no one is a worse actor then Test. Test, Al Wilson, and Pauly Shore are easily the worst actors I have ever seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Redhawk Report post Posted March 4, 2003 RVD has had some embarrassing moments where maybe it looked like he was reading cue cards or he remembered his lines well enough to just spit them out but forgot the emotion... But Test is bad in almost every aspect of acting within wrestling: In his backstage skits, his in-ring promos, his selling during matches, his "storytelling" during matches, his facial expressions, everything. I remember the one skit where Test was talking on his cell phone in the hallway and Stephanie came up to him. So Test puts down his phone on a nearby concession stand counter...Stephanie gets his screeching promo out...and Test just LEAVES THE PHONE THERE! After the skit they both walked off in opposite directions, and Test never picked the phone back up. Just little stuff like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mrnoitaull 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2003 Chuck Poulumbo-Always managed to screw up what little dialogue he was given Benoit-I dunnno, just never really convinced me . Steiner-was and always will be a shape.Rick wasn't any better though. But I agree with Andrew on the whole "vinny Mac'' piece,was irregular but still delivered a preety good point. oh and uh I'm not to satisfied with Shwan Micheals either *ducks* takes too long to get to the point.

Guest razazteca Report post Posted March 4, 2003 Coach is the worst actor on the show, its as if he trying to channel the Ebonics out of Stuart Scott, and is failing horribly. Vince is bad at leading sing-a-longs Chuck Palumbo has done nothing at all worth talking about, just look at all the breaks he gets but he never advances. If Stephan Kings The Stand were to be remade with WWE super stars it would feature Billy Gunn, Test, Chuck Palumbo, Vince, Stephanie.

Guest RavishingRickRudo Report post Posted March 4, 2003 C'mon, Brock saying "sup" to Rhyno on last weeks smackdown was fabulous. They should keep him doing the one-liners. Stephs overall character development bothers me. First she is daddies girl, then she is evil, then she is slutty, then she is evil, then she is a wimp, then she is slutty, then she is evil, now she is 'tough and in control'... Do you buy her act at all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest notJames Report post Posted March 4, 2003 At this point, I don't even acknowledge when her shitty CALL-ATT commercial is on. That's the beauty of free will… it gives me the option of changing the channel anytime something as unentertaining as the Billion Dollar Heifer is on. As for Lesnar, I was referring more to his god-awful one-on-one darkness promo. His in-ring bad-ass promos are getting better, and he doesn't sound so much like Wally Cleaver anymore.

Guest RavishingRickRudo Report post Posted March 4, 2003 I hate all darkness promos. Who are they talking to? The fans? Then why aren't they looking in the camera? Are they talking to the interviewer? Then why can't we see the interviewer. I know the WWE doesn't want to come off looking like anything legitimate, but it wouldn't hurt for a lil bit of professionalism. When McMahons are on TV, I just don't watch. It's a good way to live life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2003 I hate to say it, but Haas and Benjamin. When Angle or Heyman is firing them up, Haas will make a determined type facial expression, and Benjamin will copy him. Whenever Haas says 'Yeah' under his breath, Benjamin will do the same. It's just little things like that. I know it's partly because they've only been on Smackdown for a couple of months, but it's noticable. By far the worst is Test. His crying on Raw when Jericho smashed the ring po...Stacy was ridiculous. Stacy's not much better as a face. As a heel she's ok, but being a face is not her thing. Neither is presenting Raw X...embarrasing. I like Vince...but the heel owner has been done to death. He was the originator, and obviously he can't change. It doesn't help when he's heel on Thursdays and face on Mondays. I also like Flair because he's so damn crazy...that promo on Nitro made me cry laughing, cause he was having a near stroke FOR NO REASON! Apart from WCW's death of course, but there ya go. Victoria speaks pretty well for a pyscho don't she? Also... in certain situations Spike Dudley Benoit has improved but is still there IMO. Lesnar Shannon Moore Kidman Steiner(in certain situations for BPP=talking) Josh 'Oh my god there's a car heading straight for me, but I can't move!!!' Matthews B-2(If he still counts) Chuck Palumbo There are quite a few more, but there a lot of good actors too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest geniusMoment Report post Posted March 4, 2003 Stacy just for her screaming when she was in the walls of Jericho. Everyone in the dorm burst out laughing when they heard her try and scream. It sounded like she was laughing. It was so fake and she kept telling test to help her even though he was handcuffed to the ropes which made her look like a total dumbass, which she is in real life. Also test looked like a big dumb animal trying to reach for her while handcuffed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RavishingRickRudo Report post Posted March 4, 2003 Benoits promo on smackdown last week was good - maybe it was because Brock makes him look like The Rock charismatically... They should do that more often. I like the trio of Brock, Rhyno and Benoit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
