Top 25 most OVER-rated Wrestlers

[Rico]

"For too long, Triple H has received a free pass from internet wrestling fans, but we say, "No more!" Sure, he used to be great, but that was before he destroyed his body and moved on to destroying the careers of younger wrestlers. Folks these days like to say that "The King of Kings" makes people into stars, but wrestlers tend to either succeed despite the terrible, emasculating beatings he gives them or just disappear back into the midcard. What's worse is that he does it all with the same four boring, mechanical moves - a fact which goes strangely unnoticed by the world's Cena-bashers, who tend to love "The Game." If Triple H was as great as people say he is, the past 13 years of constant pushes shouldn't have just turned him into another Rock or "Stone Cold," it should have gotten him elected King of the Universe.

"And The Chaperone looks atrocious."

The complete ranking is as follows:

25. Diesel
24. Arn Anderson
23. Alberto Del Rio
22. Jerry Lynn
21. Shelton Benjamin
20. Verne Gagne
19. Jeff Jarrett
18. Sabu
17. Finlay
16. Christopher Daniels
15. Mr. Anderson
14. William Regal
13. Indy Geeks (Mike Quackenbush pictured)
12. Randy Orton
11. Gorgeous George
10. Scott Hall
9. Dean Malenko
8. Owen Hart
7. Christian
6. Curt Hennig
5. Miss Elizabeth
4. Jerry "The King" Lawler
3. Giant Baba
2. Hulk Hogan
1. Triple H

Now, I don't completely agree with this list...How can you put Alberto Del Rio on this list...i agree with about 80% of this list though...

Cena, Ultimate Warrior, Batista and Rock should definitely be among a list of over-rated.

[Icon Lord Sean "Magic" Fiery]

That's a pretty terrible list, consider they throw some of the greats on there...

[Head Booker]

agreed with Seano...

Tate

I have no idea what means they used in order to compile this list, but I also agree that it's pretty shitty. For example, when were Mr. Perfect or William Regal anything other than under-utilised?

I always get a kick out of people who throw around 'observations' that this band or that wrestler is overrated anyway, as if saying so is some sort of argument winner. In my view everything that is massively popular is overrated, but 'overrated' itself is not a derogatory word to me, although these critics and journalists use it as such.

Have to disagree with you on Rock there Ishy. I will freely admit that he was never the greatest technical wrestler, in fact I'd go so far as to say he wasn't even a GOOD technical wrestler.

That said, I can't name a single match he was in where I wasn't entertained. Even if the match itself was absolutely terrible I'd enjoy it simply because Rock was in it.

A lot of things seemed better than they were in the era of wrestling he was in though, to be fair. People used to be all yay for the New Age Outlaws lol...

The thing I found with The Rock was not that he was an entertaining wrestler, but he showed an enthusiasm in the ring that made up for it. He had a period where he was entertaining on the mic but it took him quite a while before he got there. I could have killed the man when he was associated with the Nation of Domination, he was deplorable anywhere near a mic. He perfected the Rock as a character over time...and unfortunately it shows in all his movies too. Versatility is vital for a real actor and he lacks that.

Is he as good as he is marketed to be? To a degree, but he is still overrated if you really take a look at him and not go all Rock mark lol.
