10 Wrestlers Who Had To Destroy Themselves To Get Over
1. Shane McMahon
God, Shane McMahon is the worst.
That isn't a use of the modern expression - "He's the worst!" to describe particularly bad form - Shane McMahon is actually the worst professional wrestler of any recognition. He must be. Billie Kay can't bump - she barely falls down - but she at least recognises that she's no technician, and instead experiments with genuinely quite funny conniption fits. She is a comedy wrestler.
Shane McMahon is a comedy wrestler in the same way that Jacob Wohl is a figure of fun. It's not just that he is an abomination of technique; he does the opposite of what he is supposed to do, twice, in every f*cking match. He punches like a toddler showing off in front of his hero father - is there even any need for the simile, there? - and is such a jumped-up little sh*t that he can't compose himself. He's too high on and energised by himself that he either suffocates his opponents in awful submissions or punches them square in the face. Conversely, because he has no idea what he's doing out there, he lightly grazes or misses them entirely.
McMahon is only aware of how sh*tty he is to an extent, and so, to get over, he jumps off things.
