10 Worst WWE Workers Since 2010

2. Rosa Mendes

It is truly baffling how Rosa Mendes has had a job in professional wrestling this long. She was signed by the company in 2006, and has survived through far, far more talented individuals being let go. How does she do it?

Rosa is a very attractive woman, which used to be enough to get you a job in WWE. Times have changed, though, and the company asks for more in their female talent; they have to be able to work in the ring!

Rosa has never got better in her decade in the company, and you have to fear for her safety a bit if she ever does return post-pregnancy. Because if she were to get in the ring with someone like Sasha Banks or Charlotte, that seems like it could end badly.

Rosa has been used so sparingly you have to wonder what the long-term plan for her is. She had 1 televised match in all of 2015, 11 in 2014, 9 in 2013, 5 in 2012 and 13 in 2011. What the hell is going on?

How does someone with so little success in managing or wrestling remain employed for so long? It’s a bit of a mystery, but you can understand why the company doesn’t want her in the ring, as nothing she does looks athletic or believable in any way.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
