10 Absolute Worst Wrestlers To Win WWE Titles
5. David Otunga
Look at that picture, goddamn, pal!
From the back, David Otunga's muscles looked like a mountain range. It looks like has four biceps. His torso is shaped like a cobra. He looks like a bodybuilder, which is why he made it to television and twice reigned with doubles gold.
JBL often said of Randy Orton that, if you were to build a WWE Superstar from the ground up, he'd look like him. If you were to build a Florida Championship Wrestling nonentity from the ground up, he'd look like David Otunga. He was like a video game character: weirdly blocky in programmed movement, at least video game characters can emulate how to effectively pull a move off. When Otunga charged at his opponents with a clothesline to the corner, he had absolutely no instincts to lay it in. He looked closer to dislocating his own shoulder than inflicting even feigned damage.
He was a chinlock specialist, of course, who would also land a barrage of punches as if air drumming and do muscle poses between literally every f*cking move. He was the absolute sh*ts, but he looked the part, and he used to shag a celeb, and so was pushed ahead of Daniel Bryan on NXT.
Imagine only turning on this company after Hell In A Cell 2019 Adam Wilbourn.
