This post is pathetic.
We spend so much time in PSP hating on wrestlers like Axel and Cena. I think it's time we say some things we like about these men and women that entertain us.


For example,
I think John Cena is a really nice guy. He goes out of his way to see kids who might have their lives brightened by his visit during a terminal illness.

Curt Axel has really chubby cheeks. I just wanna pinch 'em :3:

C'mon PSP, say nice things about our wrestle peoples :unsmith:

Ryback just loving GETS his gimmick, to the point where I'm not sure if it's a gimmick or just him being him.

The RKO is a really cool finisher.

The Miz has understandable value for the company as a PR guy and can play a good douchebag midcard heel when booked right.

I enjoy Antonio Cesaro's big swing, especially the time after the thanksgiving episode where he was trying to do it to Titus and everyone kept telling him not to.

CJ Parker's heel turn has reignited my interest in his character.

The Ascension look like legitimately terrifying tag champs.

Bad News Barrett was really fun on the JBL and Cole show, and he's still trying his damnedest with a gimmick that is difficult to get over.

Those are my bottom five (counting The Ascension as two people.)

As much as I don't want to admit it, Santino has made me laugh on multiple occasions. Also he has a great hip toss.

Curtis Axel is a very strong worker.

Great Khali seems to have a good sense of humor and has no problem being silly in the ring. I don't think angry monster ever suited him.

Dolph Ziggler has a funny name and that's neat I guess.

Kofi seems like a pretty cool dude in real life.

Billy Gun looks like Randy the Ram and that's cool, I wish they'd just make "washed up junky loser trying to make a comeback" his gimmick instead of just his reality. NAO intro isn't bad but it's wasted on it being them.

I like R-Truth's intro and entrance attire too.

Lawler has a funny voice and I mark out when he does the high-pitched "AAAAA" thing.

I didn't mind the Ivan Drago gimmick for Rusev when I first saw him but it's really 20 years too late for that (And he doesn't have the right look for it anyway).

Cody Rhodes can take a fall like a champ.

Tamina's attractive.



Aksana's Mortal Kombat inspired outfits are cool but doesn't make up for her trying to force her knee through a fellow worker's face.

The Miz did a good job finding a way to make himself valuable to the company. Him volunteering to do all the media events and promotional stuff is probably what keeps him in the position he's in today, it was really smart.

Kofi Kingston's older heel promos in the indies were really good.

Alberto Del Rio tries really hard, I think. He's put a lot of effort into his style and his character. It's not really entirely his fault he's so bland.

John Cena was actually a pretty good rapper, as far as I can tell.

Randy Orton is handsome.

HHH has cool entrances sometimes.

DDP (like him as a person, hated him as a wrestler) is doing great things for people who had been written off by their families and communities.

Shane Douglas really does care about wrestling and his place in it, and he was REALLY good at selling back in the day.

The Great Khali is a man who knows how to use his natural talents to profit personally, and that's admirable.

Ric Flair was, probably, at one point, good.

It makes me shoot mad that you have Antonio Cesaro in your bottom 5.

Miz can be really fun as a heel.

Lex Luger had an entertaining gimmick and I like that he's discovered a new career as a rap producer in his old age.

Low Ki inspired my favorite Are You Serious quote.

Road Dogg was entertaining on Are You Serious.

Kane is really good in comedy segments.

Miz clearly really wants to be a top guy (which is commendable), and I thought it was cool that he got emotional when he won the WWE title.

Jeff Jarrett is a fun comedy heel. He just really shouldn't do anything else.

Eric Bischoff had a great idea to adapt the UWFi invasion angle for an American promotion and packaged the group really well at the onset. He's also pretty good in the role of an on screen sleazy heel authority figure.

Hulk Hogan is a charismatic guy who's undeniably one of the most successful and important wrestlers in the history of the business.

Dixie Carter has provided me with months of entertainment without even needing to watch her company's product.

Triple H is a brilliant man. Possibly the smartest man in the business. The biggest thing that makes him so hateable as a smark is that he's been able to do what Hogan, Jarrett, Gagne and so many indy promoters who wrestle do and receive minimal backlash. Those Lesnar/Summerslam moments are incredibly rare and he's been able to keep the fans on his side no matter how much bullshit he's been involved in. The talent might get pissed at him, but there's nothing they can do because he rules the top of the wrestling world. He's the untouchable king of pro wrestling.

Between his mind and star power, he's the only person I can ever imagine having the slightest chance of turning TNA around after some kind of hypothetical split from the McMahons/WWE.

Despite his current hobbled state, Rey Mysterio was perhaps the best high flyer in the world from the early Nineties until maybe 2002, and he had one of my favorite matches ever with Eddie Guerrero.
