Wrestlers who overachieved in their career

[PYRRHUS 88]

Chris Benoit. I was whenever he would get a push or when people on wrestling boards back in the day would talk about him as if he was GOAT status. His legacy being consigned to the bushes was the only good thing to come of his murder-suicide, in my opinion.

 

[ReallJc]

Nothing against the fellas but Sheamus and Alberto Del Rio in wwe.

Alberto Del Rio is one of the best all-around performers in the WWE, but much like Sheamus in 2009, his rise to the top of the WWE just went too fast.

 

[Black White Sox Hat]

Triple H

Jericho

 

[Heelish]

Nash is one of the greatest ever. nWo will always be the biggest thing in wrasslin history.

Daniel Bryan
CM Punk
Seth Rollins
Chris Jericho
Edge
Miz
Mick Foley
Dolph Ziggler
Shawn Michaels
Steve Corino
Trish (wasn't any better than the other divas yet she's a HOF)
Gail Kim
Beth Phoenix
AJ Lee
Jack Swagger
Chris Sabin
Xavier (2nd ROH Champ even though he was midcard before during and after his title reign and then fell off the face of the earth)

All of them are besides Trish whose but way overrated

[Kidd Dibiase]

We hating on the Ruthless Aggression era now?

anything that shows positivity to HHH has to be ignored around here. its dumb

 

[jadachris]

X-Pac

 

[Vice Queen]

It's to show that Shawn at his peak wasn't the guy in any successful era. Triple H in 2000 >>>> HBK. As far as quality goes, I would say 2002-2005 RAW when HHH was the top guy was really good. I don't know if it did numbers but I enjoyed it a lot more than I did New Generation era RAW.

You should listen to tonight's show.

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

X-Pac

Man his run as SYXX in wcw was fukkin awesome. Its damn near criminal how hogan buried him and got him fired.

 

[Hope]

Steve Corino
Gail Kim
Chris Sabin

1) I disagree with Corino, he was amazing in ECW, and deserved the npotoriety later on in his career based on what he did there.

BUT

2) Thank you so much for your list, it was sooooooooooooo goood. I can't stand Sabin or Gail Kim, and this is why I don't fukk with TNA, the corniest shyt gets over. Like Eric Young? Really?

How did Michaels peak higher than Triple H? Was it being the third wheel in the Austin/Tyson story or was it being the top guy in the worst period in WWF history?

I like Michaels but he aint fukin with my nygga Haitch

 

[DopeMan]

I said one of the greatest. Honestly I wasn't a huge fan of Diesel but when he went to WCW and became Nash he was a lot better. Everyone knows the "New Generation" sold terribly and its easily the least popular "era" of the WWF days. When HBK was supposedly out peaking HHH, WCW was destroying HBK's company and WWF only turned things around after HBK left (obviously not because HBK left but he wasn't there). 2000 WWF is one of the mostly fondly remembered times in WWF history and the biggest wrestler that year was either Rock or Triple H. I'd say it's pretty clear that Triple H out peaked Michaels, not that it matters for anything.

This is exactly how I feel. HHH was the top heel in WWF when they were destroying WCW. On the other hand, when Michaels was the top guy it was the other way around.

 

[DopeMan]

Fukk it. I feel like listening to My Time whenever Trips of 2000 is mentioned

 

[R=G]

Monday night Raw in 2002 after the Summerslam build was terrible. Even worse in 2003 except the women's division and Hollywood Rock. 2004 almost ruined Blandy's career...way too much Cripple H...Edge returned to Toronto a failure...and all of Benjamin's great work didn't mean $hit because he didn't copy a Diamond cutter and didn't have the outfit formatted for him to win. Michaels laid down for Blandy like 10x but he would rather get shot than put over Benjamin. Stay Kliq'd up, my jiggaboo friends. Stupid.
