Which wrestler who has received a big push/backing from the WWF/E is actually the worst in ring? My nominees; Hogan Nash Masters Khali Lets keep the "so and so WRESTLERZ SUXXX" to a minimum, and be balanced about this. We`re looking at in-ring, not any other factor. Thing is Hogan could work.

Nash is the most overrated, but Khali is the worst in-ring wise out of that list.

Thing is Hogan could work. Could but never did in the Fed, hence he makes my list. But he did work in the WWF. against Savage?

Khail. I don't think you should be too critical of Hogan during his 1985 to 1990 run. Masters never got a big push on the same level as Hogan, Nash, or Khali. Nash from 1993 to 1997 was much, much better than Khali is. Granted Nash from 2000 to 2007 is not the Nash of the mid 1990s.

Sabotage! Sorry guys, my girlfriends brother thought it would be funny to post a thread that would lead to arguments when I left my computer on!
I`ve deleted "my" posts too, apologies for anything imflammatory that may have been said using my name.

I'ma go with Khali, the dude got the push from hell, and he has the look of a monster. But he can't MOVE, he gets his with a spear and he slowly falls on his butt, he doesn't take it like anyone else. (Note, spear was an example)

Out of that list, probably Khali.
But I don't like the "worst wrestler" kind of arguments. Khali is good for what he's required/expected to do.
Had he debuted two years ago, people would have lambasted Andre the Giant himself

Batista vs. the Undertaker
Batista can also have good performances with people that will get him to work.
Finley etc.
Thank you to whomever mentioned Hogans 85-91 run. If you watch his matches in the AWA, early WWF Hulkamania, and Japan you will see a good worker.
I think it was allot like Cena, people try to crap on there work all the time.
Then when you think about the fueds and matches really not so bad.
Cena had Umaga in the Royal Rumble. JBL years previous WrestleMania, and Shawn Micheals a few times this year that made me respect him.
Back to Hogan again, I think the period in time that he gave crap performances was WCW. He brought his game for awhile, I think it may have been intentional heel wrestling in the early part. Then he just got so banged up that his body was breaking down, at the same time he stopped caring.
Nash even had some matches that were good in the WWF, in WCW I loved him as a tag team wrestler. He just lost all care for the game, and at the same time legs were awful.
I will always remember when the power bomed the Giant, the first time when it worked.

After that scene where he was rubbing Ted's feet he would always be just a lackey goon after that.
Even though he did fight Ted at Wrestlemania 7 it wasnt gonna be the same.

Toss up between Khali and Giant Gonzalez. Neither should be anywhere near a ring, both got their pushes based solely on their size.
