10 Worst WWE Workers Since 2010

9. David Otunga

I will defend David Otunga's ability to flex his muscles to the death, but will readily agree his in-ring skills were sloppy nonsense.

If Otunga was even a half-day decent wrestler, he’d still be on TV regularly today. Due to his marriage to Jennifer Hudson, WWE keeps this guy around, despite not being very good at anything: announcing, wrestling...well I guess he did a pretty mean job of holding a Thermos.

Otunga has an incredible physique, but much like Mason Ryan, and some other muscle bound warriors of the past (like Ultimate Warrior for example) that didn’t translate over to in-ring ability. Despite being in front of millions of fans, he still wrestled like the equivalent of someone who had spent a few months in a wrestling training camp.

It just can't be stated enough, David Otunga could flex his muscles like no one else. And if this list was about the best flexers in wrestling well...he would make that list too. But as far as in-ring work goes, they should have thrown this lawyer wannabe wrestler out of court...or at least out of the ring. Yeah, that would probably make more sense.

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
