With the rise of artificial intelligence over the last few years and the release of ChatGPT, everybody’s asking AI questions about almost everything. Whether it’s a new recipe they want to try or just a quick summary of a subject they’re studying. Wrestling fans also jumped on the AI trend, and many even posted their favorite AI-generated stories online.
What does AI have to say about the outcomes of these potential WWE Vs. AEW dream matches?
We asked AI to rate the most overrated WWE wrestlers, and it came up with an interesting list. Since it’s ChatGPT, it did say some things that most fans wouldn’t probably agree with.
10 John Cena’s WWE Career Was Overrated Largely Due To His Predictable Matches
Super Cena Was Hated By A Lot Of Fans
| Wrestler’s Name | John Cena |
|---|---|
| WWE Tenure | 2000-Today |
| Do Fans Really Consider Him Overrated? | Yes, especially when he was still working as a full-time wrestler. |
Look up any article, post, or thread online where fans discuss overrated wrestlers and you’ll always find John Cena’s name. And it makes sense, he was one of the most popular wrestlers to have ever existed. WWE treated him as their main wrestler for over a decade, and a lot of fans weren’t too happy about it, especially those who grew up watching Attitude Era or even the Ruthless Aggression Era where Cena first made his debut.
John Cena is one of the biggest stars in WWE history and competed in some of the greatest matches of all time. Which one is the best?
AI believes Cena’s wrestling style was just basic and his run as Super Cena almost made every match predictable. Fans will likely agree with this one.
9 Hulk Hogan Got Over Due To His Insane Charisma But Inside The Ring He Was Only Okay
Hulk Hogan’s Popularity Changed Wrestling Forever
| Wrestler’s Name | Hulk Hogan |
|---|---|
| WWE Tenures |
|
| Do Fans Really Consider Him Overrated? | Yes, because time and time again Hulk Hogan was chosen over other wrestlers even when the storyline didn’t make sense. |
AI criticized Hulk Hogan’s limited moveset. One of the reasons why ChatGPT put Hogan on the list was because he was too charismatic and his marketing. Guess it’s too bad to have charisma as a wrestler!
Hogan’s politicking in wrestling also enhanced his chances of always staying at the top, and since he wasn’t able to keep up with his peers in terms of their wrestling abilities, that made him “overrated” according to AI.
8 The Ultimate Warrior Wasn’t A Good Wrestler Overall But Fans Loved His Larger Than Life Figure
The Ultimate Warrior’s Matches Were Rarely Good
| Wrestler’s Name | The Ultimate Warrior |
|---|---|
| WWE Tenures |
|
| Do Fans Really Consider Him Overrated? | Yes. The Ultimate Warrior became a major name in wrestling but with time, fans realized that he wasn’t as good in the ring or the microphone. |
The Ultimate Warrior got over with fans, but he wasn’t on Hulk Hogan’s level. Hogan was at the top of the game for decades whereas Warrior was only a main eventer for a few years. He burned a lot of bridges, and that cost him tons of big opportunities.
His wrestling skills were at best subpar and ChatGPT said he relied on his larger-than-life physique and gimmick more than anything else.
7 Roman Reigns Was Overrated Before His Heel Run As The Tribal Chief
Roman Reigns Is WWE’s Biggest Star Right Now
| Wrestler’s Name | Roman Reigns |
|---|---|
| WWE Tenure | 2010-Today |
| Do Fans Really Consider Him Overrated? | In the past yes, but not anymore. Mainly because his push was forced during the first few years. Since his heel turn, fans have really gotten invested in him and Reigns has shown major improvement. |
Roman Reigns is a must-see superstar today. His work has been pretty amazing the last few years, thanks to the heel turn and the rise of The Bloodline and the storylines that came from it. However, his previous run as The Big Dog where he was a babyface was pretty unpopular with fans. He just wasn’t liked by them, and ChatGPT said the same. Although the AI did point out that this was before 2020 since his heel turn has changed fans’ perception about him.
6 Goldberg Was WCW’s Biggest Superstar But Not The Best Inside The Ring
Goldberg’s Gimmick Was Perfect For Wrestling In The 1990s
| Wrestler’s Name | Goldberg |
|---|---|
| WWE Tenures |
|
| Do Fans Really Consider Him Overrated? | No. Goldberg was the definition of a star attraction. His matches were short, but that’s what WCW used him for. Fans realized his limitations as a wrestler but still enjoyed his work. |
Goldberg was known for being dominant in the ring. And because of that, his matches often ran for only a couple of minutes.
While he was never a great technical wrestler inside the ropes, Goldberg did have some great matches in his career; both in WCW and WWE.
Another thing is, every time Goldberg has tried to have a longer match (more than 10 minutes), he’s shown he just can’t keep up with other wrestlers who are more known for their technical wrestling abilities.
5 Ronda Rousey Received A Big Push Only Because She Was Already A Known Attraction
Ronda Rousey Was Still Very Inexperienced In The Ring When She Debuted
| Wrestler’s Name | Ronda Rousey |
|---|---|
| WWE Tenure | 2018-2023 |
| Do Fans Really Consider Her Overrated? | Yes. Ronda Rousey was part of the main event since she first debuted, but she made the fans turn against her very quickly. |
ChatGPT said that critics believe Ronda Rousey was pushed too soon. She was a big star when she debuted in WWE, but other more experienced wrestlers didn’t get their chance to shine because WWE was more interested in being able to market their wrestlers than in prioritizing hard work.
AI criticized Ronda’s promo work, as well as her inexperience in wrestling psychology.
Sid Vicious Had Main Event Runs In WWE & WCW
| Wrestler’s Name | Sid Vicious |
|---|---|
| WWE Tenures |
|
| Do Fans Really Consider Him Overrated? | No, it’s the opposite. Sid Vicious was perfect for his time. He was scary, his matches were short yet impactful. On top of that, he was really popular among fans but people never really talked about him like other legends. |
Sid Vicious won several World Championships in wrestling, but AI believes his in-ring work wasn’t good for a main eventer.
Sid Vicious is often overlooked, but he had a solid wrestling career. Some fans might not know these facts about the Ruler & Master Of The World.
His promo skills were also a “hit or miss”. Considering these limitations, he made it to this list.
Ryback’s PPV Losing Streak Halted His Momentum
| Wrestler’s Name | Ryback |
|---|---|
| WWE Tenure | 2004-2016 |
| Do Fans Really Consider Him Overrated? | No. Fans loved him at one point, but they realized he wasn’t good a wrestler and had the tendency of working stiffly in the ring. |
Ryback is an interesting name because there’s probably no one who thinks he was ever overrated. Yes, WWE did try to push him as their next Goldberg, but that didn’t really work out. Ryback was over with fans at one point, but it soon became clear he just wasn’t a good wrestler overall. When was the last time Ryback even wrestled?
2 Lex Luger Failed To Stand Out In An Era Where Better Wrestlers Existed
Lex Luger’s WWE Run As A Main Eventer Failed
| Wrestler’s Name | Lex Luger |
|---|---|
| WWE Tenures |
|
| Do Fans Really Consider Him Overrated? | No, but the promotions he worked for (WWE and WCW) really saw main event potential in him. |
Lex Luger was WWE’s next big babyface after Hulk Hogan left for WCW. Unfortunately, WWE wasn’t able to create a superstar out of him. ChatGPT also said that Luger’s character lacked depth, and his in-ring work disappointed the fans. Other wrestlers at that time were simply better than Luger.
1 Jeff Jarrett Is Overrated Because He Didn’t Make It On His Own
Jeff Jarrett Was Criticized For Not Being A Good Wrestler
| Wrestler’s Name | Jeff Jarrett |
|---|---|
| WWE Tenures |
|
| Do Fans Really Consider Him Overrated? | No. He wasn’t the best by any means, but he knew how to work the crowd as a heel and rarely got enough credit for it. |
ChatGPT thinks Jeff Jarrett is overrated when in reality, he’s underrated by fans. Nevertheless, ChatGPT’s main criticism of Luger was that he got into the business and achieved the success that he did due to his family’s influence. He didn’t have much talent inside the ring, and not the charisma to make up for it.
His Double J gimmick was pretty good, but not as good as fans think.
