OK, what's this from, and what was supposed to be conveyed? Fear? Hunger? Gas suppression? It's from her breakup with Ziggler youtu.be/rvjRP3-pqbI

Zack Ryder. Zack Ryder. Zack Ryder. and Zack Ryder. Yes, I am serious, bro. This. I don't think I've ever seen bad acting kill a push the way Zack Ryder has. Logic would have dictated that you just don't make him act anymore and keep him to what he knows. Instead, it was just the excuse they wanted, more than anything.

"Big Johnny" was awful. It could have been intentional, but still didn't make it any less cringe-worthy. (The part where he announced that he signed the Big Show the Saturday before the PPV and the lousy cover-up because "OOPS, I screwed that up."...my head hurts even thinking about it.) Undertaker has his moments where it sounded like he was reading off a slow-moving teleprompter. "KANE! Is.That.The.Best.That.You.Can.Put.To.Geth.Er?"
As far as the ladies, Torrie Wilson, terrible. Sable, awful. I won't even touch on Chyna. (Funny thing is: if Sable & Chyna switched voices, they wouldn't sound so bad.) The worst was Tori.

Michelle McCool who had 4 years or so of "I'll try and hide my southern accent but suck at it" and then suddenly YEEEEHAW when she realised that she may as well just let her Change the Channel accent become as over the top as possible

C.M. Punk (from his promos in WWE) are so BORING. He sounds like he literally learned his lines 5 minutes before he goes on. Not convincing at all especially in his latest heel run. He sounds like he's desperately trying to sell the fact that he's a bad guy to the crowd. He's like..."I'm the best in the world...blah...blah...blah...I beat Cena...blah...blah...blah...I'm better than you guys...oh...by the way...I did mention that I'm the best in the world didn't I?" CM Punk IS desperately trying to sell the fact that he's a bad guy. Because he's so "awesome" that fans refuse to boo him. The problem is, Punk seems so hollow with it, like he's half-assing it. No one would have said this about SES Punk, or even New Nexus Punk.

No one would have said this about SES Punk, or even New Nexus Punk. He is half-assing it. As for him being "awesome" like the other person said...I don't see it. When I watch a Punk promo...nothing gives me the indication that he's this great talent. My opinion only here but...C.M. Punk is death on the mic (to me). He doesn't grab my attention and make me want to watch him. He just makes me want to either hit FF or mute the TV when he's on. I've tried several times to sit through his stuff...but I cannot convince myself he's good when I don't think he is. I basically see nothing at all in him what so ever.

Which is a shame because not so long ago he was golden. It's obvious he hates the direction his character is going in so is putting little to no effort in.

This tread just shows how different opinions can be. OK, what's this from, and what was supposed to be conveyed? Fear? Hunger? Gas suppression? It's from her breakup with Ziggler youtu.be/rvjRP3-pqbIThey didn't think about maybe doing that again?

It's though to judge wrestling acting, you can't judge them by proper acting standards due to the loud crowd (on four sides), poor writing, no real training, no retakes etc. Plus Overacting that would be unacceptable in most situations is required in wrestling. Then there's different ways people judge acting, charisma, body language, line delivery etc. I think that's why AJ divides opinions as she's strong in some areas but not others. My answer is Kelly Kelly as she was weak in all areas of acting. I don't know how many are bad actors, and how many have trouble acting infront of a live audience This is a good point, luvvies often say "acting is reacting" and I think many wrestlers fall down on that part. This has been made worse in recent years as it's clear they've been told not to deviate from the script or acknowledge the audience, you can see it in many recent AJ or Maddox promos where the crowd start chanting/heckling and they need to respond but can't, instead they just stand awkwardly and get thrown off and who wouldn't in that situation? That also makes their character less believable. I think some of the actors that have appeared down the years and been really uncomfortable prove how difficult it can be in front of a crowd.

Zack Ryder definitely, I also think Natalya is just terrible. It's a shame Maxine left as I thought she was one of the best actors/actresses (besides the rock, obviously) that they've ever had.

Orton, trying to act like a snake
Miz, trying to act like a hardman
Jericho, trying to act likeable.

Am I the only one that doesn't think AJ is that bad? She's nothing special but I don't see anything awful about her acting. I'd say worst actress is Vickie. Yeah she gets a lot of heat, but I get embarrassed watching he fumble through her lines. I have seen worse acting from Lita and the Hardyz, so no you aren't the only one.

I know he was purposefully hamming it up the Christmas RAW last night but John Cena's "wink wink, nudge nudge" acting was pretty cringeworthy.

I try not to hate on AJ Lee too much, but watching TLC I couldn't help but think, "Is she the worst since Stephanie McMahon?" Seriously, porn level bad acting there. I thinks she acts as if she is going to shock the crowd when she says stuff along the lines of "with John Cena" acting as if they're gonna cheer every time. She gets very annoying In my opinion.

It's alright, AJ is the "in thing" to hate on right now for whatever reason. Happens to anyone who gets more than 30 seconds screen-time outside of the ring.

The AJ fight has gotten really weird on here. Obviously you have her huge fans who think she can't do anything wrong despite being one of (in my opinion) the worst things on RAW at the minute (and that's saying something) but I feel like the AJ "haters" are starting to go too far as well. She's bad, and off-putting but it's not like she's porn acting level of bad.
EDIT:
How could I post on a worst wrestling acting thread wiithout mentioning Kelly Kelly? Surely the overall worst actor/actress in WWE history

I think you inadvertently got at the heart of why people fight. I am pretty neutral toward AJ myself (though I feel bad for the performer having to portray such a horrible character), but I seriously don't think blind slathering admiration that blinds people to reality is to credit for her defenders. I think some people just like her and others don't. Doesn't help to cast her fans as just ignoring that she can do wrong.
