The Silver Fox is one that I am growing to dislike. And thank God they stopped calling Hardcore Holly "The Alabama Slamma".
Your Olympic Hero has always been one of my favorites.

Most any of Morrison's dumb nicknames I hate. I like Samoan Submission Machine actually. Even The Shaman Of Sexy?!?

I hate when JR calls Hardy the "Rainbow Haired Warrior". Just irritates me to death. This is easily the winner for worse. I'd say Instant Classic is a good one, certainly better than Captain Charisma. On the subject of nicknames, is there a wrestler out there with the nickname "No Nickname Necessary"? Because that'd be hilarious.

I wasn't actually serious .... HE SAID IT 12 TIMES. Good god Jim.

one that i hate: "The Samoan Submission Machine" The problem with that name just like the "Human Suplex Machine" moniker given to Taz, is that is suggests an image of a robotic machine which apparently has no purpose except to apply submissions or do suplexes. It seems weird. actually, the reason that i hate it is because Joe is way more of a brawler than a submission wrestler. it'd be like calling Bryan Danielson "The High-flying Machine" because he does a few dives of the top rope

I like Big Evil. It fit Taker's biker heel persona perfectly.

Jeff just seems to attract the bad nicknames; "Rainbow Haired Warrior", "Charismatic Enigma". Really he just needs to combine the two and call himself the "Enigmatic Warrior". Its not perfect, but it sounds less contrived than the other two. Would you settle for the Enigmatic Rainbow? One that always made me wonder what JR was going for was calling Taker "Booger Red". Yeah, there's a story there, I guess, but damn it, it is impossible for me to say "he's a badass" while someone constantly refers to him as "Booger" anything. Also, nicknames that refer to someone's country of origin, when it is completely unnecessary. Carlito, did we need to be reminded he's from the Carribean? Is it that easy to forget? Will they do the same when they bring up Kofi Kingston, and refer to him, non-stop, as "The Jamaican Sensation" or something?

I like Big Evil. It fit Taker's biker heel persona perfectly. Yeah, Big Evil was pretty bad ass for a nickname. As for worst: Lance Hoyt (The Ticked-Off Texan), The Juice (Juventud Guerrera); that's all that I can think off right now.

The one that I like the least is "The War Machine" for Rhino. I mean, isn't Rhino already a nickname for the guy? Or is that his real name? I actually don't mind "War Machine" compaired to "Man Beast"...

Good: -"The Instant Classic" - A perfect fit for a wrestler like Christian -"The Glamazon" - fits her character, though it would even fit better if she was a little bit more muscular -"The Wrestling Machine" - I don't know if they still call Angle that, but that IS what he IS. I'm aware that this machine is fueled with all kinds of medication, but Angle IS a wrestling machine and he IS the greatest active wrestler today.
Bad: -"The Game" - It always was and always WILL be "WTF?" for me. I wonder what they would have done with Owen and that nick, which was supposed to be his...probably something stupid. -"The King Of Kings" - How bigheaded can you get? If it was just for putting Cena over as the young fighter and having HHH as the snotnosed heel it would be ok, put c'mon...just "No." -"The Man Beast" - Sounds like Manbearpig (not as bad as Sylvester Turkay's old nick though...) -"Showtime" - Not as bad as "The Game", but still "WTF?"

Indy wrestler Cindy "The Definition of Technician" Rogers. That flies off the tongue like the Hindenburg.

On the subject of nicknames, is there a wrestler out there with the nickname "No Nickname Necessary"? Because that'd be hilarious. I know for a while Chris Candido was "No Gimmicks Needed," which I also thought was cool. EDIT: And I hope it doesn't rub anyone the wrong way, but I really thought "The Crippler" was a great nickname for Chris Benoit. When he started being called "The Canadian Crippler," though, that wrecked it for me. I mean, was he only crippling Canadians?

I do love the "Instant Classic". It just suits him.
It's not current but I always hated Austin being called "The Bionic Redneck".

A good one:
The 'Strong Style Psycho' Tank
My Favorite: The 'Psycho Shooter' Drake Younger.
I think the way Drake is introduced for a match is the way Ultimate Fighters should be introduced for a fight (ie include where they trained). For those who don't know Drake is introduced: From Indianapolis Indiana, by way of the RAAGE Dojo, the 'Pyscho Shooter' Drake Younger
