Who is the most over-rated/under-rated TNA wrestler/superstar?

[TheGreatOne]

Have you ever read forums where you see huge praise for wrestlers/superstars on the roster. I mean huge praise like you think "he is good, but he isn't as great as you make him out to be". Is there any guy where you tell yourself that when reading blogs, forums, ect where a superstar/wrestler is getting huge praise? Share with us who you believe is the most over-rated wrestler/superstar and the most under-rated. Under-rated obviously means not getting the recognition he or she deserves. I suppose I'll start:

Most over-rated: Daniels-Let us remind each other this isn't based on wrestling ability, mic skills or just 1 thing. It is based on the whole package of praise a wrestler receives. Daniels has been a thorn in AJ's side every year he returns to TNA. I'm an AJ fan, after the past couple of years I wonder why is he stuck with him? TNA obviously don't know how to use him, but every single time he returns he has to face AJ Styles. The current storyline where he has been facing Daniels has gone on for way too long. I'm sick of Daniels and their marks. I hate the storyline, the fact Daniels always has to ride AJs coattails, and I hate the fact Daniels can't keep a job with TNA without wrestling AJ. If you are as good as your marks claim you to be....you should be able to work with more than one person. As a fan of AJ Styles, I'm tired of it with his stints. Hard to wonder if he would be able to even keep a job if AJ wasn't around. We are still stuck in 2005 for goodness sakes. It it time to move on.

Most Under-rated: Magnus-I think if given the right push he could be a world champion in TNA one day. I believe he has that potential to be a world champion. Not given enough praise obviously, but he is sometimes not even on the show which does hurt you from time to time missing Impacts. I know the response I'll receive will be, Magnus can't booked on the show so he must not be good. Magnus can keep a job with TNA wrestling guys other than AJ Styles.

This may clash nerves, but it is nice to speak out your opinion on this topic.

My fellow Brit Magnus (Or Oblivion if you watch Gladiators ) is awesome. His promo in the UK was brilliant, and the crowd was electric the whole time. He can go in the ring, and is extremely underrated.

I dont watch much TNA but I would have to say the most overrated wrestler is AJ Styles. Dont get me wrong he is pretty good, however for all the hype you hear about the guy I'd expect more out of him

[MachoManFan]

For me the most over rated is Booby ROOOOooooode. I find him boring on the mic and generally average in the ring. Beer Money was a great team but without James Storm, Roode is just bland.

I agree that Magnus is under rated but would say EY is the one who suffers most. He can really work well in the ring, is over with the crowd and can talk. He could be so much better without the comedy gimmick.

Do you have the power to read minds or something? o.O Those were my exact two picks!

Bobby Roode is pretty overrated IMO. Sure, he's steadily improved over the past year but some people are already comparing him to Triple H. Are you kidding me. Triple H currently has the greatest grasp of in-ring psychology in the WWE. Boby Roode isn't anywhere close. Plus, his wrestling ability is pretty average as well. Nothing spectacular. The only thing I can give him credit to is his mic skills.

Eric Yound is severely underrated. This guy can work any gimmick of any kind and make it entertaining. He can be comedy relief, cult leader or revolutionary. Heck, he might have the ability to play them all at once!

I disagree saying that Daniels is overrated. It's not his fault that TNA choose to book him against AJ all the time.

I'd say that Bully Ray's underrated. Why hasn't he won a world title yet is beyond me. His heel run has been excellent from what I've seen, and they should consider putting the world title on him next before his heel run becomes stale. He's worked hard to get in good shape too, and his hard work should be rewarded. He's arguably the best heel in the business right now.

Overrated I would say is Hernandez. I've heard that TNA officials are high on him, but I can't see why. He's not great on the mic and he's a botch machine in the ring. I've seen a few videos where he's nearly seriously injured people with his finisher. I'm surprised he's still got a job.

He escaped my mind. You are spot on Tommy. From what I've seen, he deserves to be the #1 Heel in Impact Wrestling

I also agree with the guys who said that Bobby Rood's overrated.
Given, he's good, but he's not as amazing as some claim he is, and he's certainly not the better half of Beer Money. He's pretty good in the ring, and he's proved to be solid on the mic, but that's about it.
As far as I'm concerned, he's pretty average and Storm > Roode times 100.

[Cabers]

Overrated: Rob Van Dam he just isn't the same anymore.

Underrated: Magnus hoping to see better use of him.

While I see your point, I don't think Storm is that much greater than Roode. Roode has his quality, but I wanna see him go mega-heel now. Hell, I know this sounds bad, but have him cause Claire to have a miscarriage that way we could have the only memory of this IDIOTIC angle be that Roode is a baby killer.

As for Under-Rated - EY takes the cake. Magnus seems to have captured the eyes of someone in the back since he's been added to BFG this year and was in the semi-main event this past week. He will be pushed soon. But EY has been with the company forever and has remained in just a "there" state, even though he gets the attention of everyone in the crowd. He's a good heel, but as much as everyone hates on him for it, I love his comedy gimmick. When he was carrying around the old belt, and took the TV title from Robbie... He was what kept me entertained when so much other stuff was pissing me off.

Over-Rated = I wanna say Zema-Ion, but by him digging into the "I broke your neck" angle, I can't say that. He has my attention for sure. If I had to choose, I will go with Mr. Anderson. It is well documented through this site that I'm not the biggest fan of his. He is great on the mic and I love the expressions, but when a match seems to be deemed "poor", he is always in the ring for it. Hardy/RVD go at it one week and everyone says "Wow, look at'm go!" Anderson/Hardy or Anderson/RVD and everyone blames Hardy/RVD for the match not being great. Take a look at this past weeks Impact. Anderson caused AJ to botch the hurricanrana because he stopped before AJ got his legs over his shoulders. The flying forearm turned into a cross body because Anderson was too close and just generally in the wrong place. It's not that Anderson isn't a good wrestler, I really think he is. But I do think people give him FAR too many passes on his slop; He's not "Hernandez" bad, but everyone seems to blame the other wrestler when he's in the ring, whereas Hernandez is blamed for other wrestlers fuckups at times.
