Wrestlers you used to like but now don't?

Postby Matteo » Feb 12, '14, 4:21 am

I was big on Jeff Hardy when I was younger, especially that push he got in the WWE. After a while, though, I realised he was pretty dull, and there was not much to like about the guy. His personal life never really helped much either.

I guess RVD is another one. It's not that I don't like him, but I am indifferent towards him nowadays. After watching many interviews over the years, he is rather egocentric and sloppy on the mic. I still do love watching his matches in ECW - some of the best I've watched from that company.

So who are some wrestlers you used to like but now don't?

The Hardy's. Obvious reasons, I'm starting to around when it comes to Jeff though.

Kofi Kingston, I'm just sick of seeing random kofi matches or random US title reigns that go nowhere.

HBK was once my Favorite wrestler, and now I'm kinda sick of him coming back, I'm sure it has more to do with me hating HHH but still.

Batista. He was the one guy my Dad could enjoy watching so by default I quite enjoyed him too, but holy shit has this return made me despise him... most of it's not his fault mind you.

There's probably more, but none come to mind right now

Probably Rey Mysterio. He's still one of my all time favorites, but now he's just a shell of himself and really needs to call it quits.

Probably Damien Sandow and the Miz. And it's not even necessarily anything they do differently now, just bored with waiting for them to actually do something at this point.

Rey Mysterio for sure. That guy has had multiple knee surgeries & probably should have retired a year or two ago. His ac gets tiring quickly.

Ryback. My God don't get me started on Ryback. The whole Goldberg-esque destruction of jobbers & the undefeated streak. The way he would enter & have the crowd pumped really caught me. However the WWE really eff'd him up when his first true feud was against Punk for a title that we already knew he wasn't going to win.

Batista for sure. 6 or 7 years ago the Animal was an awesome figure of energy & got the fans behind him. Now he's washed up. Got thrown in our faces out of nowhere & wins the Rumble. He's aged terribly & doesn't look good. I'm sick of these part timers.

Undertaker. I'm not saying I hate the guy but I'm sick of seeing him for one match every year that he will most likely win. Then he leaves & doesn't come back until the following Mania. They need to end the streak this year. I was somewhat happy to here that he was going to feud with the Shield after Mania last year but that didn't happen & that gave me more of a reason to be annoyed with the Taker.

Oh I have loads. :lol

Rey Mysterio. The guy used to be amazing, but now he's just a shell of his former self. He can't deliver too much in the ring any more, and he never really took off as a great character.

Sting. He was amazing in WCW, but he sucked far too much attention in TNA without ever really deserving it. His matches and feuds were never all that interesting, regardless of how hard he was pushed.

Undertaker. He used to be cool back in the day, but wrestling moved on and he didn't. His character has become harder and harder to digest as a result, and so has everything else he's been involved in. He never should have changed back into the zombie, in my opinion.

The Hardys. They're both fuck ups now, who usually make things worse when they're on television. Jeff sells really well but I have a hard time saying anything else positive about either of them these days.

All mine have already been mentioned I think:

The Hardy's for sure, Matt Irritates me so much and I just don't think Jeff is all that great as a wrestler. As a kid I thought they were the shit.

Rey Mysterio, dude just needs to retire now.

Chyna, I thought she was amazing, I loved the fact that she had matches with the men and came across as strong, rather than just a sex object. Now when I look back all I see is a train wreck waiting to happen.

The Hardys and CM Punk. CM Punk is a good wrestler dont get me wrong, but his attitude outside the ring stinks like dog shit.
