10 Absolute Worst Wrestlers To Win WWE Titles

Best pro wrestling in the world. Period.

WWE's collected title lineage is absolutely f*cking warped beyond belief. Truly, it is incredible.

Nicholas, a preadolescent child, has enjoyed more WWE World Tag Team Championship reigns than The Rockers. Cynthia Lynch - better known as 'Godfather's Ho' - once won the WWF Hardcore Title, where Terry Funk never did. Hervina - Harvey Wippleman in drag, for the uninitiated - has won more Women's Championships than Ember Moon. Mr. McMahon won the WWF Heavyweight Championship; Roddy Piper and Ted DiBiase never did.

Christ, even Tamina won the 24/7 Championship.

WWE has long experimented with comedy in the title pictures that were never meant to be taken seriously. Also, again, the Tag Team Championship picture, which to Vince is more or less synonymous with the 24/7: to him, they are just a bunch of merry-go-round geeks who are totally secondary to everything. And he still thinks WWE is "too pro wrestling" right now.

Expect the Revival to spit-roast Zelina Vega in the next cucking angle, then, as Aleister Black's lips are scripted to tremble.

"They...f*ck-ed...my wife-uh..."

This list is dedicated to the worst of the trained professional wrestlers...

10. Enzo Amore

Enzo Amore had something that, yes, cannot be taught: an innate charisma, star power and gift of the gab.

These qualities got him over, because, as is becoming increasingly clear, the ability to wrestle excellent technical matches is not enough. He was a sentimental favourite in NXT in spite - or almost because - of his slipshod approach. Enzo had the engine and the banter to become a star, but the 'My consensual penis didn't do it boy' went full woozle-wozzle on the main roster when fans tired of his schtick and lack of improvement.

His work degenerated, if anything, away from the more careful, flattering agenting at Full Sail.

Infamously, he badly mistimed a vault over the top rope in a 2017 match with Cesaro. He ran full steam ahead into the ropes, and when he realised he'd f*cked up, he didn't have a clue how to instinctively rescue the situation by turning 'round, feigning a punch, and restarting the sequence. He simply removed himself from the ring as disgracefully as he tried to hijack it at Survivor Series 2018.

Joey Janela officially won their feud, on this evidence. He had a far better match with an invisible man.
