George Gulas: Though, Greg Gagne looked like Kerry Von Erich compared to this goober. An even bigger bean pole who looked like he should have been an accountant rather than a wrestler. George was the Worst Nepo Baby in wrestling history mainly because his dad Nick just kept on shoving this guy down fans throats, which ended up killing his promotion. Everyone quotes the “Daddy said you have to sell,” story (understandably so), but my favorite is when he was riding to a show and the guys pulled off at a rest stop to eat bologna sandwiches because that’s all they could afford with what Nick paid them. George got on the pay phone to his dad to say, “We’re having a picnic, daddy!” Anyone who has seen Smoky and the Bandit, I’m convinced that George Gulas and Junior are the same person. I sort of feel like if George came along in another era, people might have latched onto him ironically as this laughable shmuck, but that trying to present him as a top guy would even then make people balk. If Nick had the humility to A. not try to f*** Jerry Jarrett over, and B. just had George be in nothing matches and hand out vouchers to [insert local business sponsor] , he would have kept himself in business longer. Trying to ask guys like Harley Race and others to carry the doofus was his undoing, along with f***ing Jarrett into thinking he was a partner and expecting him to just accept it.

Giant Gonzales kills me because dude always looked like a super fun guy that's always down to brighten up yr day. It's like Godzilla as played by Karl-Anthony Towns.

Since Shane seems to be running away with this, I’ll throw out Stephanie when she first started. That was sort of the point during her Women’s Title reign but when she was fighting Trish in early 2001, Trish had that thicc fitness model build and yet Steph, looking like she could bench 35 lbs, usually whupped up on her. She shared Shane’s magical McMahon toughness I guess. When Steph started hitting the gym, she looked fine (and I do mean fine) in her later ring appearances but those first couple years, nah. In all fairness, Trish wasn't a fully trained wrestler at the time either, and their match at No Way Out was fairly entertaining. Not a technical masterpiece, but a pretty good catfight.

Shane McMahon, obviously, but I could never take Blue Meanie seriously so I'll go with him too. Also could never take Rosa Mendes or Eva Marie seriously either.
