Every last wrestler has a following, well accept Tyrus, but sometimes personal bias coalesces to form a wider narrative that rings hollow to everybody else.

0:10.7

Sometimes a wrestler so skilled at one facet of the game can decline in that area, but people are too invested or even frightened to acknowledge it.

0:20.1

With that in mind, I'm Adam Wilborn from Whatculture, and these are ten wrestlers who are the most overrated, but precisely one thing.

Number 10 Johnny Gargano Comedy Look, Johnny Gargano isn't painfully unfunny. He has not unimpressive comedic timing and a certain dorky charm with which he can get away with WWE material.

0:42.5

The problem is that the Gargano comedy character only worked in the context of what he had become in NXT mid annihilation in the Wednesday night wars.

0:52.5

All involved in the process realized that the excesses had just become cringeworthy and via the way Gargano's jumped up Naka character worked in stark contrast.

1:02.5

It was light relief from the most humorous, histrionic material imaginable.

1:39.5

Strowman isn't one of the most agile and dynamic modern horses.

1:42.5

I mean, Lancarcher is better at wowing crowds without rages, feats of which he has no physical right, Jeff Gold.

1:53.5

is so talented at a core level that he can work great matches whilst carefully measuring his jaw-dropping high spots.

2:00.5

Strowman, meanwhile, runs around the ring in an in-elegant, almost comedic way.

2:05.5

I mean, nobody expects him to be Vader, but they do talk about him like he's Vader, and he's not Vader.

2:11.5

Please don't hurt me, Mr. Strowman.
