Underated: 1) Christian who should be main eventing a better brand than ECW. 2) Nick "Brutus Magnus" Aldis. Check out his All New UK Gladiators work as "The Big O" aka Oblivion. 3) R Truth who's over in every arena he's at but used to get over guys like Drew Mcintyre. |

Overrated: The Miz I'll admit he's got decent mike skills but otherwise he's absolutely useless and Morrison carried him during the dirt sheet years Underrated: Jack Swagger He's got all the tools to be a great main eventer but he's not getting the push (and the mid-card title run) that he needs

Overrated: The Miz Seriously? Why is he the US champion? Oh yeah...because after he LOST his title shot, he immediately received another one the following night. Sorry Miz, but I will now be taking out my frustrations with that entire scenario, on you. He's beyond lackluster in the ring, hell he's below average. His selling is shit, and his offense is nothing but moves popularized by other wrestlers with punches and forearms thrown in between them. He loses and than gets granted another shot which he wins and just like that the rivalry for the title is over...fail. He is to the US title, what Santino was to the IC title, what Hornswoggle was to the CW title. Death. He needs the strap removed a.s.a.p. and put on someone more worthy. Carlito stands out as the most striking person in that capacity. He and Kofi had two excellent matches together and as per the usual WWE cast aside the talent in place for the hype. Miz came up from FCW too early IMO. Kevin Thorn, Drew McIntyre, DH Smith, they were all sent BACK to train while being able to put on 2x the match The Miz has ever been able to and that's exactly what they need to do with him. ----- Underrated: Gregory Helms Not exactly the success I thought would be coming to him from this move. Mainly because of his return to the Hurricane gimmick, while it gets over with the fans, he will never become ECW champion this way and it's a damn shame he hasn't been put in line to do so. While he was CW champion, the prestige of that title reached to HUGE heights. He went champion vs. champion against Benoit. He was in a Beat the Clock match against a top title contender at the time, which he was WAY over in. Than his injury hit and the title went to pot, he was never given a real welcome back and has spent most of his time in an unhyped feud that only gets air time every other week with a man who should've had the belt a long time ago, Paul Burchill. He needs to go back to Gregory Helms and swap face for heel, the sooner the better. |

What the hell is wrong with you? WTF?!! Overrated: Shawn Michaels. WWE invariably deifies him and tries to comfort his ego by parading him as '' the showstopper '' and '' the greatest performer eva!! '', which I just find repulsive. He's absolutely past it. His routine is so hackneyed and out of date that it's beyond laughable. He's the quintessence of a ham-actor, no, flipping over the ropes every time you get hit with an irish whip isn't cute and it's certainly not believable in the least. He wasn't even that good in the 90s, other than having a pretty garish character and looking good. Now he's a total joke and I find no compelling reason to even bother watching him. The great matches he does have are once in a blue moon and usually have him getting mostly carried by a more capable opponent, whether it's Kurt Angle, Undertaker or Chris Jericho to name a few, yet somehow he manages to soak up all the credit somehow anyway. The only thing I can praise him for is that he's pretty charismatic, that's hard to argue against, but then again a lot of guys are and there's nothing extraordinary about the charisma he possesses. He always has been as average as they come as a wrestler, his promos, whether he's being doom and gloom are trying to be funny just end up being soporific and he's an atrocious actor. The cheesiness at least fitted him in the 90s when he actually was a heart break kid, now he looks like a fed-up mess and has all the personality to go along with that. With Triple H, at least all the glorification is vindicated because he works his arse off for the company, can make anyone look good, can actually act well and doesn't look like a sad old dog. Even a 60 year old Ric Flair looks comparatively sharp next to Michaels. Shawn Michaels really is a true artifact, whereas the likes of Kevin Nash and Chris Jericho have adapted with the times as they've gotten older Michaels has seemingly went back in time, and pretty much embodies 80s wrestling. Which isn't a good thing. Also overrated: Kane, John Morrison, Evan Bourne, CM Punk, Edge, Matt Hardy, Shelton Benjamin Underrated: Paul Burchill. He's consistently been the most underrated entity in all of wrestling for the past half-decade or so. WWE really need to get their act together and utilise this guy like how he deserves. He hasn't slouched a bit despite being marginalised by WWE since his return. His in-ring versatility is amazing, he can do high flying better than most of his significantly smaller peers, he can do chain wrestling, he can tell a story, and of course there's his forte, kicking teeth in, which like a lot of great UK wrestlers he can do so convincingly. He always looks good, and is well spoken and eloquent on the mic. The guy has heaps of passion, and is damn sure a better wrestler than current day Shawn Michaels  He's a real utility man and he manages to put on great matches and engrossing promos even with the embarrassing scenarios he's often placed in. I only wish WWE would use him for more because the guy really does have no forseeable limits.Also underrated: Chris Masters, Mike Knox, William Regal, MVP, Chavo Guerrero, Jack Swagger, Finlay, Zack Ryder, Triple H (by the IWC), Edited by Seal, Jan 7 2010, 06:29 PM.

Underrated Mike Knox: I'm not sure if i have said it here already but this guy is the best big man in the WWE (besides taker) he has agility,power a good look and his gimmick and promos are really different and awesome. it saddens me to see him lose every single week and thats even if he makes TV that week. i just wish the WWe would give him a chance and push him in a good way because when he actually was getting pushed i ECW he was doing a pretty good job at it. |

Overrated: Triple H Only reason he's a main eventer is because he's in bed with the bosses daughter. No offence here but it's blindingly obvious. His wrestling skills are about as good as Lacey Von Erichs. He just get's the title shots because he also gets a say in what his character can and can't do. It's beyond me why so many people cheer for him The Undertaker: Has anyone seen him wrestler? Seriously he only knows about 6 moves. Snake Eyes, Big Boot, Leg Drops, Hells Gate, Last Ride and the Chokeslam. You don't see the likes of Evan Bourne at Main Event status though Others: Michelle McCool Underrated: Evan Bourne: The kid has some serious skills. He's entertaining to watch much like Amazing Red, can actually wrestle and is also good with the mic Edited by Roary, Mar 2 2010, 06:48 PM.
