Many people believe that she is not a good wrestler by any stretch. I personally don't think that she is THAT bad. If I were to rate her in-ring wrestling skills, I would give her a C. She is passable and a hit and miss wrestler, but she isn't the worst, most botchtastic, two move wrestler that I have ever seen. I guess the point I am making is let us say something somewhat positive about Velvet Sky, the wrestler. You can also list wrestlers that you believe are worse wrestlers than she is in terms of in-ring skill or lack thereof from any organization, male or female.

Velvet is mega over with the audience, and is hot (the latter no doubt determining the former). Those two things are the only positives I can honestly think of.

Those are the only two I can think of. I would have said Cookie but she's gone now and I like the character.

She's definitely way better than Lacey Von Erich and Kelly Kelly at least. I know Velvet's been one of the most disliked wrestlers on this forum for a while now, but I don't think she's that bad. The only real problem I have with her is that her strikes can look a little weak. And it's not like she's dominating her division like John Cena or Michelle McCool.
She was on a losing streak for a good part of the year, has only been champion one time (tag team at that), and usually only wins by the skin of her teeth. I can understand the feeling that she is in too many feuds, but it's not like she's being treated like she's the best in TNA.

She seems to perform within her boundaries. She's certainly not the standard bearer in TNA and I agree she's getting pushed way beyond her means, but she's alright by me.

There aren't that many at her level that her worse than her. However, there are plenty of people that barely qualify as trained wrestlers that stink it up in the ring. She isn't going out there and crippling people or messing up things like a basic body slam or clothesline.

Mason Ryan. That's about it. Sucks to be him. Ever heard of the Dixieland Destroyer? I saw him on an IWA-MS show...so yeah, I'd have to say Dixieland is way worse than Velvet

I actually think that Velvet has two good things going for her. 1- She is pretty good on the mic (Not great but she commands a presence when she has the mic) and 2- She has a natural "it" factor. Now is she good in the ring? No but she is passable and honestly I don't think you can vilify someone for being a passable worker.
I don't get the hate on Velvet. She tries to get a character over with the fans and does her best in the ring.

Jenna Morasca from Survivor pretty much clinches the win on this IMO.
