10 WWE Joke Pushes That Stopped Being Funny
4. Vickie Guerrero
Vickie Guerrero lasted just months short of a decade with World Wrestling Entertainment, almost double the time her late husband Eddie did. And yet, had their daughter Shaul (FCW and NXT's Raquel Diaz) stuck with her wrestling career, it's almost certain her second generation ties would be linked almost exclusively to her famous father.
This is broadly understandable considering the incredible legacy 'Latino Heat' left behind, but speaks also to the years the once white-hot heel authority figure spent in WWE's wilderness as a sidekick or valet crudely and cruelly cast as a physical figure of fun.
Guerrero's 'actual human' visage didn't wash in the Vince McMahon's insane environment, resulting in her playing (admittedly, very well at times) a vindictive and vengeful shrew for almost the entirety of her run. The gag was almost always the same even after the only thing still over remained her "EXCUSE ME" heat-seeker. She'd scream the house down in support of her client/boyfriend/business partner of the time, they'd lose, and she'd look stupid. And probably get dumped or abused along the way.
The company spotted the sympathy her character had gained by her very last night, but still couldn't resist coating her in mud like the "hog" they thought she was.
