Who was that guy Regal faced on NXT? If he’s still around it’s him.
If not then I’ll go for Kaitlyn. Even though I don’t like her I have admit Kelly Kelly has improved ever so slightly over the years.

Also, gotta throw Rosa Mendes in; she's been with the company, what, three years? 3+ years, and she's wrestled maybe four matches on television. If this was anyone else, and they didn't suffer a career-ending injury that was just kept well hidden, I'm pretty sure they'd be sent out on the horse they rode in on. Considering these are the same people that put Kaitlyn and K2 on national television, this has to be a case of even WWE brass has it's standards. On somewhat of a different note, I feel I gotta defend Alicia Fox here; I mean, seriously, putting her in with Otunga and K2? I keep hearing "I'm shocked Alicia hasn't seriously injured someone yet" and "One day, she's gonna seriously injure someone"; yeah well, she's been doing that move for at least a year now. And I doubt the chick who used to dance with DJ Gabriel has a helluva whole lotta clout backstage, let alone enough to get away with doing a "career-killing maneuver", as it seems to be touted. Billy Kidman didn't go a whole year without botching HIS finisher, the Shooting Star Press (hell, he concussed Chavo Guerrero, didn't he?), and I don't hear him being referred to as "teh wers wrestler evar!!1!one". Mind you, that's the only move people refer to her as botching. Nearly everyone else listed here has botched at least two or three moves (and I don't even think Otunga knows three moves). You can't really compare Alicia Fox and Billy Kidman. Kidman, all around, is a better performer than Fox is (and arguably, will ever be). Yes, his Stardust was often off the mark in WWE, but not in WCW. Very similar to Sin Cara, Kidman's occasional botches seem to have evolved into him somehow being this inept botch machine, when that just isn't the case. No, Fox hasn't injured anyone with her scissors kick, I give you that, but she doesn't even have any notable moves outside of that, not to mention she isn't too impressive on the mic. Which brings me to Rosa Mendes. Rosa is an anomaly to me; in OVW and FCW, she was good, considerably better than she is in the WWE. But for whatever reason, any time she wrestles on the main roster, it's bordering on disastrous. Someone in another thread mentioned that it may have something to do with stage fright- somehow, wrestling in front of so many people makes her goof up more. As far as mic skills go, I'd go as far as to say she's pretty good, part of the reason why me and others think she would probably work best in a manager capacity for the time being. One needs to look no further than her time on ECW across from Zack Ryder; but, if you wanted to, you could also look up her work in FCW and OVW. But, for some reason, it seems like she tends to leave her technique (and perhaps her confidence) in Florida.

The "Alicia Fox is going to injure someone with her kick" is quickly becoming a meme around here.
Its good for a laugh.

NOOOO!!! He may make more mistakes than wanted but he isn't bad. I think the "amirite" part denoted tongue-in-cheekedness. I give Kaitlyn a bit of a pass when the first time she ever appeared on TV on NXT was her first match ever anywhere. I think I'll go with Khali, in that sometimes it looks like he can't even stand upright.

I'd say Khali. And while the other people that others have mentioned are bad, at least they can use the green excuse. You can always improve if you're green. Khali doesn't have that excuse. He's been around a while, and is getting worse each year, due to injury and good old fashioned suckery. The "Alicia Fox is going to injure someone with her kick" is quickly becoming a meme around here. Its good for a laugh. I agree. It's funny how so many people seem to say the exact same words, despite not having any proof to back up said words. It does feel like it's an actual meme, and people aren't actually being serious.

Not counting Michael Cole or any of the divas, it's a toss up between Khali and Otunga. Khali looks like it takes all of his energy just to walk to the ring and Otunga.... oh, man... where do I start with Otunga? I've never seen a man that jacked seem so unthreatening. All I ever really see him do is bump and perhaps drop an elbow here or there. He's like an unfinished CAW.

probably David Otunga. he's terrible. his finisher looked awful and half the time he f***ed it up. for female obviously Alicia Foxx, she looked like she was going to hurt someone..... accidently and in a bad way
if counting past NXT's Eli Cottonwood was the SUCK.

With some it's hard to tell because they get so little time. Mason Ryan's only had one singles match, hasn't he? And that was against R-Truth who spent the whole time botching. He is very green but will only improve with time.
Khali gets a pass because his moveset is partially so limited because his knees are totally shot.
It has to, therefore, be Otunga. He still can't be trusted in singles matches. After over a year.

Otunga hands down. He still seems awkward in the ring and just punches and kicks.

How dare you people slander a veteran ring general like Alicia Fox.

Even though I don’t like her I have admit Kelly Kelly has improved ever so slightly over the years. You mean Novak? Yeah, two things: 1) he got "endeavored" last week, and 2) he's average in the ring, which puts him in better standing than most of the people listed.

As hot as Kaityln is I think she's worse than Otunga, Ryan and Khali. Poor girl.

Khali.
The only reason he's safe is because he doesn't really move or do any wrestling moves.

Khali, Kaitlyn, AJ, Otunga, and Heath Slater.AJ and Naomi had one of the best divas matches in years on NXT. Heath Slater is one of the best sellers in the business, and he is a really safe worker, which is why he was the only person they would let work against Bret Hart.

Khali can barely move, Michael Cole cannot claim to even be a wrestler, Mason Ryan is green, but the worst two wrestlers on the roster are Otunga, who is pretty bad, and Maryse. Okay, you can flame me on Maryse. I don't think Alicia Fox is that bad and I never seen her botch or come close to injuring anyone. Maryse can only two moves well and just do a little catfighting move. She is not what I would consider a competent wrestler. Otunga needs to be trained by someone who knows how to train him because he is just bad.

Otunga needs to be trained by someone who knows how to train him because he is just bad. Alicia and Maryse both have dangerous looking finishers that haven't actually hurt anymore, but Alicia gets flamed because her axe kick at times looks reckless, making the fact that nobody got hurt look like a lucky break while that's never been an issue with Maryse's DDT. I remember last year, Nikki Bella took it right on her head but made it look like just plain old good selling rather than looking like she almost legit broke her neck.
