UGO.com
has posted a list counting down the top 25 most overrated wrestlers of
all-time. The ranking is topped by 13-time world champion Triple H, who
was named Most Overrated in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter awards on
three consecutive occasions (2002-2004), and again in 2009.
Regarding the self-proclaimed "King of Kings", UGO.com wrote: "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
