Top 5 Greatest Horrible Workers
These are guys who couldn't really work a great match, but were so charismatic, they were still way "over" with the fans and thus extremely popular.

5. Goldberg/Brock Lesnar - IMO, these two guys are pretty much identical. Two giants with a limited move set and most of the time could only work about a 5 minute match. Both of them pushed as unbeatable monsters and world champs, but neither could carry a match.

4. Lex Luger - Luger may the only wrestler that I can remember that actually got worse as he got more experienced. I'd have to say, the Luger that was in NWA/WCW(prior to going to the WWF) was Luger at his best, by far.

3. Kevin Nash - I'll never understand why Nash was so over. He has about 3 moves in the ring, horrible "mic" skills, charisma and energy of a trash can.

2. Ultimate Warrior - Literally, only had 3 moves and one of them was shaking the ropes up and down. Promo's were completely incoherent, but worked with a lot of energy and charisma.

1. Hulk Hogan - His matches were about as cookie cutter as they come.
- hulk up
- block punch, right hands
- big boot
- leg drop
- pin
this was the magic formula in about 90% of his matches. If you were lucky Hogan would take a bump in the match too, otherwise he just got stomped, punched and choked on. It's a testament to how much charm and popularity he had to overcome his ridiculously predictable matches and repeated storyline(best friend turns on him, now hulkamania must destroy them)

brock lesnar and goldberg are one of the best wrestlers in the game so dont say they are the worsest workers. they are way better than tajiri rvd and especially better than kurt angle and ric flair.
kevin nash is a killing machine. he beats everbody with few weapons. he uses weapons the right way to hurt and never loses.
but john says brock or goldberg can beat them anyday.
