Averagest wrestlers of all time?

Recommended Posts

Who are guys that are the most average of all time? Average ring skills, average mic skills, average in how they did during their careers, average crowd receptions...who is/are the averagest of them all?

I would say Koko B. Ware:

 

Never really a jobber but never really a star.

 

Not too bad of a worker but nowhere near great.

 

He was in the same exact role for almost ten years....

John Cena, ok the crowd loves him, but everything else he does is totally average.

I'd say he was a bit above average in 2003, but in 2004 he slipped straight into mediocrity.

 

David Young is really average also.

"Diamond" Dallas Page, although he had a few good matches, and his finisher was INSANELY over. His promo's were basic and bland, and although he didn't botch a lot of spots, his matches didn't consist of a lot of complexity.

 

Of course, they didn't need to. He got his point across, and was good at selling ribs that'd been beat by the nWo for forty-six straight weeks.

Alright I thought of my good choice now

 

Jeff Jarrett

 

Although he's been over a little during periods of his career his ringwork has always been decent at best and his promos have ranged from solid to boring.

That IS a good one. Jarrett is incredibly average.

The WWE is full of average guys. They do have some royal stinkers(like John Heidenreich) but most of them can put together a decent match. The problem is there are so many average wrestlers that we start calling them sucky. People like Orton fall into this category.

My pick is Bulldog.

 

Jarrett is a good one tho.

 

 

Guys like Billy Gunn, Hardcore Holly and Koko B Ware sucked. Average isnt suck.

 

Orton bumping and in-ring charisma make him way above average, Ditto with Cena as it goes for his Selling.

Tito Santana. He was decent, but he was great in pretty much every category and aside from two IC Titles he was usually the guy you got to put over the new guy getting a push. Painfully average.

Koko B. Ware didn't suck. He was one of the most over Jobbers I have ever seen in the WWF.

I think...

 

Jim Powers is an okay example.

 

But my number one pick is actually one of my favourites, Alex Wright... He was only as good as his opponents (usually).

Whoa-whoa-whoa. You did not just say The British Bulldog. He was a pretty good wrestler last I remember - may be he just needed someone to work off with, but he was still a good wrestler.

 

Example: vs. Bret Hart

Example: vs. Owen Hart

Wright was ok. I honestly never saw the hype. I knew WCW for a long time in the mid- 90s tried to make him out to be one of the greatest techical wrestlers in their company.

 

 

 

Wait...shoot. I should take that back. By comparison, he was one of the more talented wrestlers.
