Wrestling magazine Power Slam said this about Kevin Thorn:
Kevin Thorn has floundered since WWE fired his attractive sidekick Ariel.
So, he wasn't floundering because the only gimmicks he gets are ones that blatantly rip off other people's? Mordecai- Undertaker. Let's face it. Kevin Thorn- Gangrel (who was way better, partly because it's a real life style for him). He isn't floundering because he can't wrestle for shit? Or cut promos?
Anyway, who do you think is completely useless? Here's my initial list.
Kevin Thorn John Cena (I hated him way before it was cool to, so don't defend him) Gene Snitsky Viscera Deuce and Domino (Worst tag team I've ever seen) Hulk Hogan Ric Flair Vader Trevor Murdoch Mike Knox Matt Stryker I could go on Goldberg retired Batista could improve. Hope he does

Batista could improve, but he doesn't have th drive to do so.
Trevor Murdock, actually I really disliked him and Cade, but now I love them, they are a good tag team, they have improved far beyond that of Batista or Carlito and Cena.
Vader should be scratched off that list, I mean he was good for a man his size, he and Bigelow are the only one's over 400lbs that you will ever see attempt a moonsault and make it look good in the process.

I agree to a point, he was good. Now his balance is pretty poor just standing.
Ishy, I was gonna put this in the wrestling forum, but I figured that since it's not news it'd just get deleted. So I put it here

His balance? lol. Some many months back he fell out the ring on an exit after a match, giving it a husky "Ooh!" lmao
Balance...

Heheh, yeah, and when Batista went to knock him out the ring, he fucked up and made himself look silly. It's on a Botchmania somewhere

Perhaps useless... But IMO, very talented... Kevin Thorn, Mike Knox, Matt Stryker. If those 3 were used right, they're be great. Especially Knox and Stryker... They have some good technical skills and some decent innovation, but it's being completely burried. I hate that.

They have some good technical skills and some decent innovation, but it's being completely burried. I hate that. Agrees wholehearted. Also, I am a HUGE Vader fan. Please leave Vader alone unless you think that *current* Flair should be added to your vague list. Vader is one of the all time greats; Flair is one of the all time greats. Vader has aged; Flair has aged. Vader's skills have deteriorated; Flair's skills have deteriorated. Vader falls over; Flair does almost nothing but dish out chops. They're both well past their prime, but they're both still fucking legends to me. I reiterate - Vader should NOT have been on your list. <feels sick> M x

I disagree about Kenny Dykstra - he is skilled and still v. young and able to improve.

Okay, my list of the talentless and unsalvageable from the current WWE roster: Candice Michelle Hacksaw Snitsky Ashley Cherry Kristal Mark Henry Maryse Vicki Guerrero All of Extreme Expose
I *would* say that it's such a small number because they have the best roster in years, but that would be a lie. It's because they have the thinnest roster they've ever had. ECW has only 12 active superstars for goodness sake!

and 1/4 of that ecw roster is suspended I agree with your list, but Hacksaw is comedy, well a little, a few years ago, he was hugely over with the crowd, probly one of the best to never hold a singles title in the wwe next to Ted Debiase and Andre the Giant.

Ok, first up, this is about opinions. We're not all gonna agree so chill already. Yes, Vader was great in his prime. Flair was too plain for my liking. But seeing them now, you'd have to have seen them before to know why peeps like them so much. I believe Flair and Vader should have retired by now. Or went to different parts of wrestling eg. Flair as a manager So just to clear it up, should it require more then the above: Good then (and yes they've aged, I know, but)- terrible now
