Benoit is the most misuesed

Nolimits · 22-11-2003 2:40pm

although she isnt being used as bad now as she was, i think steph is the most mis used , she has no place on my TV and it seems she has no place on the cretive team who have gone from bad to worse under her "creative direction". I read she used to be a secetary, i think thats where she should go back to.

So my vote for most misused person in WWE is steph she is "utilized" way too much.

Kane.
What a waste. I thought the Shane/Kane fued was to push the insanity character!
A couple of months and 2 PPV's later its finally over.

I assume now Kane will be gunning for the World Heavywieght title? If so about time! If not what the f*ck are the writers thinkin!

He also needs a better finisher IMO. The chokeslam is used by too many ppl including ppl who can't possibly pull it off! ie Hurricane.
Kane is a powerhouse and is capable of so much more.
This is one example of the "Big Guys" being ignored and it baffles me!

Thoughts?

Lance Storm has always been the most misused in any company. He might not be great on mic,but he sure can wrestle better than a majority of the people in WWE.

Eddies not foreign....and he is my favourite at the mo. He should be in main events by Royal Rumble,but won't be till about KoTr(or at least i hope)

Benoit is very underused. Its not fair on the guy....everyone knows how amazing he can work,but Vince doesn't care.The big queer.

Eddie Guerrero i agree with but i must ask WTF are they doing with v1.0 :mad: he was wasted on RAW this week :mad: :mad:

R.V.D, Benoit, Gurrero, Storm and Tommy Dreamer are all under utilised talents.

Tommy Dreamer was the 'innovator of violence' WWE turned him into the 'disgusting things I'll put in my mouth guy'.

Storm can outwrestle 90% of the current talent but can't find a decent story line for love nor money.

Gurrero and Benoit must have run over Vinces dog, both guys are hugely populer despite some of the story lines they've been given.

R.V.D should be a title conteder, his moves are unique and spectacular, it wouldn't take a huge push as he's already over with the fans.

this may come as a suprise to most but stephen richards is the most under used talent in wrestling, the man is a genous on the mic remember rtc he was hated beyond beliefe a biggest heal at the time, and his steevey night heat promos are top of the range.
V1 the same one of the best on the mic when he was on the mic.

thers more to a wrestler than mic scills but any wrestler with them is highly looked apon after two years of hhh, goldberg, papa pumps, and brock lesner( i know he has improved emensily but still wouldnt bie a ticketho hear him talk)

NeroTheExtreme · 24-11-2003 12:04pm

YESSSH! Well said a-hole.
Richards was the **** in the bWo. and he had a superkick that puts Michaels to shame! RTC was complete and utter cack though but get yer mits on ECW stuff circia 97 to see the real Richards.

RVD is wasted, has been from the minute he walked into WWE. That and the fact that one of his best moves has been robbed by the over-rated Shane O Mac.

Benoit has been on the sidelines for far too long.

Eddie Guerrero i reckon will get his push soon. He needs to lose Chavo fast though and thats in the post too.

Kane has run out of options at this point. And rehashing Undertaker V Kane due to ANOTHER EXPLOSION IN A BURIED ALIVE MATCH (Found Rock Bottom 98 on DVD and watched Buried Alive II last night), isn't gonna help either!

Just my €2,000,000

Injuries - let me see, HHH was given the world title when he was in bits (his quad was at him again), As a-hole pointed out, Nash was given three months at the belt including the most boring hell in the cell match i've ever seen (and that includes the two that the Bossman was in) as well as the elimination chamber! And lets not forget the Smackdown side, where they threw the belt back on Hogan?! The guy's only off a dyalasis machine and is liable to have a heart attack at any minute!

He's doing pretty well on Velocity, which apparently is doing a lot better than Smackdown!

Jeff Hardy was a misused talent, great Tag team with Matt then they go there separate ways and Matt's character becomes Mattitude, Matt Hardy Version 1 and Jeff goes on a losing streak and nothing happens for him and it all leads to his departure.

In fairness, Jeff wasn't misused, he just wasn't arsed. He was dropped for not turning up on time, if not turning up at all. They had Jeff Hardy pencilled in for a major push, but he dropped the ball bigtime. I don't think they ever expected Matt to get over the way he did.

Jeff only had himself to blame, Vince tried... believe me he tried.

the push was stopped when hhh put jeff out with a sleeper now how can you respect anyone who lost to the sleeper hold (and the drugs didnt help)

NeroTheExtreme · 08-12-2003 3:59pm

Wrong!
The push was stopped because Hardy was losing interest in the business. He was showing up late, he was also no-showing, goofing around and no, the drugs didn't help his case at all. Which was the straw that broke the camels back. Ross finally had enough and released Hardy from his contract three days before Wrestlemania.

Wiped the floor with him? I wouldn't go that far to be honest mate...
Basically it was RVD's first PPV and someone had to put over his moves. Jeff was still part of a team and it didn't really matter at the time because there were no plans for him to be pushed at the time. Unless it was aborted...

Ph3n0m · 09-12-2003 1:44pm

Futhermore to my (many) opinions, misused talent are:

Jericho
Christian
Hurricane
Benjamin/Haas
Ultimo Dragon
Mysterio
Jamie Noble
Spanky
Paul London
Matt Hardy
Benoit
Lance Storm
RVD
Rhyno
Shannon More
Kanyon

whosurpaddy · 09-12-2003 2:48pm

how are benjamin/haas being misused exactly? its not like their shy of a push/ tv time. theve already had the tag titles twice, and fueded with both brock and angle. not bad for your rookie year if u ask me.

Ph3n0m · 09-12-2003 3:05pm

maybe so, but they are clearly the best tag team in the WWE at the moment, and the fact that they jobbed to Rikishi and Scotty 2 Hotty says it all really doesnt ??

a-hole · 10-12-2003 9:34am

i taught it was the basioms who jobbed to fat ass and little worm

jericho although he is getting more air time than a lot of raw people i think he should be in the mane event as a face, this man as a face can draw better than goldberg and hhh and bitista and kane (the only 4 mane eventers) and as i said before stephen richards can draw he just needs the air time and a better work rate. But the most under used talent is rhyno
