In the world of wrestling everyone is a critic. Everybody has an opinion about what passes for talent, and who should be thrown to the wayside. Honestly though, there will always be wrestlers who are not used as much as somebody thinks they should be used. In fact, even in preparing this list of five underused talents from WWE's past, I realized there are probably dozens of other workers who I should have included in this list. So suffice to say, this is 5 of the most underused wrestlers from the past, but it is by no means extensive. I could probably do one of these lists once a month. However, this list comprises five personal favorite talents of mine, some by talent I have seen, and some by talent that surely must be there somewhere and only requires the right mind to bring that talent into the light.
5. Harry Smith
Our first entrant on our list is one of those who surely has that talent somewhere inside. While that can be a dangerous assumption, from what I've seen of the late great Davey Boy Smith's son, he sure does seem to have the skills, and he certainly has the look to be a star. In fact, I would have to say this entry really should include the entire new Hart Foundation which includes Tyson Kidd and Natalya Neidhart, as I don't believe WWE did a 1/10 of what they could have done with these young talents. Smith has moved on to wrestling on the indies and overseas, and I hope that he continues to grow and becomes a star one day. I mean, just look at that guy above. He is almost the spitting image of his pop, and he is a part of a wrestling dynasty. Just those two factors should make him a star in this business even without any in-ring talent. Throw in the fact this guy can actually go in the ring, and will only continue to get better, and there should be no reason why Harry Smith should not be a star. Seriously, sometimes you have to wonder who decides whether WWE keeps a talent or not, because sometimes they just drop things that should be instant money.
