How do you job to someone when you're not even in a match with them?
Look on the bright side. Storm got the most mic time he's had in a long time, and looks to be establishing his "serious" character again. It's worked for him before.
SO am I the only person who's going to come to the Bossman's defense? He's cool...he reminds me of the old WWF days in the 80s, not too many of those guys around anymore. I think he's actually kind of funny...the way he slides outside the ring and throat punches the guy dangling over the second rope- classic! And he moves pretty smooth for a big man. So no, he's not the worst wrestler in the WWF as far as I can tell. But then again, I'm only a casual fan.

The Goodfather got my vote for worst wrestler last year and I think it's safe to say that the Godfather will be getting my vote for worst wrestler this year.
Rikishi would be better in the eyes of fans if they let him do the Rikishi Driver again.
There is no real "worst" wrestler. It's all about taste. But lets just say, person that makes me change the channel the most....with out a doubt Billy Gunn. What is it about this kid that sucks so bad. He had the whole package, the blond mop, the bronze cut body, the never ending smile of his. Now I know why he sucks so damn bad (in my eyes).
He is from another era. 15 years ago he would have been headlining in World Class. He is the WWF version of Lex Luger. With Luger having more cuts and more charisma (unbelievable) I can live with Gunn disapearing and Luger (with Elizabeth's over the hill ass) on my TV flexing. Poor Billy.
Go ahead and kill me, but I think The Hurricane totally sucks, and it's not because of his character. So far, he has done absolutely nothing in the ring that impresses me. He looks weak (which I know, it's part of the gimmick) but if a wrestler is not powerful, he is usually a high-flyer. I have not seen Hurricane do any high-flying moves, and besides that, he moves darn slow. Besides all this, he's terrible on the mic. He sounds like a buffoon, and has zero charisma.
So I officially nominate Citizen Gregory Helms as worst wrestler.
It's funny you say the Hurricane, I dig him and Molly. My wife on the other hand hates them both with a passion. Whenever he loses (which is everytime) She get this big evil grin on her face. I don't know, I love the gimmick. What Hurricane needs though is something every superhero needs.....an arch-villian. No not the Villanos.....but I can really see them playing henchmen...maybe someone like Kane. Can you get any more evil looking then that? But, the huge giant is never the arch-enemy. Just fodder. So you need someone who is more smart then brawns..what about X-pac? He has histroy with Kane, and I could dig the Napoleon complexed X-pac sending Kane and company to foil Hurricane's every move. Haha this would make about 30 fans around the world happy.
I will defend the Hurricane on this. The bad part is that he has been saddled with a gimmick that is not going anywhere. It's an 80's gimmick for pete's sake!! I have an ugly feeling that he is not going to be able to get out of this unless he shoots big time!
My vote is : Rikishi, The Total Package Billy Gunn and Hogan. I am not looking forward to his old orange ass on my TV.

Jeff Hardy. reasons? He jumps around like crazy, doing suicidal moves left and right and being all awesome and stuff.. But when was the last time he did a serious basic wrestling move? Every move he does comes from jumping around on the mini tramp in his backyard ring. At least Matt has some normal moves..

He does some arm drags and drop kicks, you cant get more basic than that.
Anyway my vote for the worst is with out a doubt Vince. I mean if you saw the PPV he had a headlock on Flair and he was leading w/ the wrong damn foot. It was assbackwards, unacceptable! But Flair being the pro he is, still got a decent match out of him.
So, WWF, if there was say, God forbid, a comet hitting the earth, or a nuclear holocaust, or chemical or biological attack, or a bomb, or the four horsemen of the Apolycolaspe come. All I have to do to survive is watch the WWF?
I don't consider Vince a wrestler, so I don't expect much out of him.
I agree about the guys who only do highspots without a foundation to put them on.hr> "Worship the Hardys, but you know--eat a salad once in a while."--Stevie Richards.
Although Shane isn't a fulltime wrestler, the same goes for him. Bump after bump.. Jeff's moveset is the whisper in the wind (toprope twisting summersault?), swanton, poetry in motion (charging/flying/weird looking corner splash), double leg crotch legdrop, and sometimes the twist of faith.. That is it..with basic moves I meant, armbar, slam or anything like that. dropkicks don't count
And you know..Hardyz and salad in one line, sounds er..like Chuck or Billy said it, not Steven Richards.

If it turns into a good story, then cool. However, WWE has exhausted a lot of good will in the past and I'm extremely skeptical. It's easy to feel like they're sabotaging Bryan for overshadowing their golden boy Cena. Bryan "gave up".
