She's not the worst I've ever seen.
However, that spinning headscissors (or whatever you call it, I've never seen it done just like that) is the least convincing wrestling move I've ever seen. I could suspend disbelief for Papa Freaking Shango, but not that.

I don't think she looks sloppy at all except for the backflip elbow which everyone looks sloppy on. Everyone except Snooki, that is. |

Who are you guys to doubt Kelly Kelly? She`s a terrific high flyer of the highest magnitude.

To be fair even in real life, people that are "sloppy" or not quite smooth with their technique have been known to best people that by all means were stronger, faster and more skilled than they are. Fables featuring such a trope have been around for centuries, it happens in boxing, mma and in many other aspects of everyday life. Just because you don't buy that someone can defeat someone seen as superior doesn't mean they can't. Maybe if Kelly Kelly had at least a few impactful move in her arsenal, I could buy this argument, but seeing as how every single one of her moves are low impact and meant as eye candy, the fact that they're sloppy just makes her look like she shouldn't be able to beat up a 12 year old, let alone someone like Beth. A neck scissors in the ropes isn't low impact and that legdrop finisher of hers(as someone put it) is a variation of a move that can break necks. Oh and she does the second rope dive off the apron |

But I got one worse than that: pushup facebuster. Alex Shelley is an amazing wrestler and even he can't make that move look anything above horrible. |

Snooki looked better than her and she's wrestled one time in her life, that's all that must be said.

Never in a million years would I expect to read a thread title like this.

Having read the OP (as usual, I think a lot of people commentated based on the title!) I agree. That is the direction they seem to be going in; especially week after week the commentators giving props to Kelly, even Cole.
Unfortunately, for this storyline you need to be able to back it up in the ring. As many other have said Kelly is sloppy, overly choreographed, her moveset is simplistic, she can't act. It also doesn't help that they're going on about how Kelly is improving each week, WHEN SHE'S BEEN WRESTLING FIVE YEARS. You'd think a person would be good at something after doing it for five years, but Kelly proves that ain't the case.

I will give Kelly Kelly credit for trying. She really does put the effort in, but bless her heart it just doesn't work out.

But...but she can't even bounce off the ropes right! Actually, yesterday on RAW was probably the first time she tried running in the rope without stopping midway. |

She's absolute garbage but can just about walk upright nowadays compared to how she used to be which for some reason seems to qualify her for a free pass in the eyes of a few people. The WWE or anyone else saying she's a great wrestler because she keeps winning doesn't make it at all so. Otherwise I might go around calling myself the King of the Moon 'til people start believing it. EDIT - LET BE KNOWN - I AM KING OF THE MOONYour majesty, as lunar ambassador to Atlantis, I have to inform you that our exports of green cheese are running dangerously low. It's my advice that you have the verdant cheddar catapults loaded for bear and launched toward the pacific ocean within two days. Prince Namor gets cranky when he ain't go no cheese.

Imagine Kelly on Tough Enough when they do the ropes drill.
Hold on, I gotta go, I got a handicap match against Khali and Henry to win. I can't run the ropes either.

Kelly Kelly is everything that's wrong with the Divas division. But honestly, do we really care about a championship belt that's shaped like a butterfly? The fact that it's called the Divas Division in the first place should give away that it's a complete joke.
But the fans like it, so obviously it's what they want. A 95-pound blonde rail with a big, goofy smile seems to be what's hot right now. Gee, I wonder how this happened with all these former models coming out and shaking their asses every week with a handspring elbow thrown in. It's a mystery why the fans don't care about the wrestling.
