10 Wrestlers Who Are The Worst In The World At Exactly ONE Thing

7. Tyrus: Big Splash

The former Brodus Clay shored up in the NWA not too long ago, and made Shane McMahon look like the 2018 Kazuchika Okada in terms of cardio.

Working under the name Tyrus, the disgraced Fox News contributor was - and this isn't hyperbole - quite possibly the worst choice imaginable for Billy Corgan to bring in.

There was simply no argument in favour of it: Tyrus was hardly Hulk Hogan or Ric Flair, a performer who a major promotion was always going to welcome back irrespective of their transgressions. He was never a star. At best, a convention promoter might bring him in to get a small commission on a Brodus Clay 8x10.

Let's go through the cons here: deeply limited wrestler in piss-poor cardiovascular condition with no star power nor even nostalgic value who is also a public relations disaster.

Let's also go through the pros: erm, it was quite funny from a schadenfreude perspective watching him struggle terribly to perform the one high spot "workers" of his style and physique used to be able to do in the 1980s?

Snoop Dogg does a better splash than Tyrus.
