Yeah, that's bullshit. As much bullshit as TNA being a better show than RAW. Seriously, who voted on this crap?

Tyson Kidd? Most underrated? There's a reason why he's not on television and that's because he has as much personally as the chair I'm sitting on right now. And I'm guaranteeing you nobody who vote for him if he wasn't a Hart.

I've noticed Cena fans damn near everywhere think this same thing. They hate great workers like Kidd, love horrible workers like Ryback. Go figure.

Hm... not sure I agree with that. In ring-wise, sure but... eh.

Worst TV Announcer: Michael Cole (WWE) - 4th consecutive year "winning" this category

Hell no, not as long as Jerry Lawler remains behind the desk.

Quote:

Most Disgusting Promotional Tactic: WWE broadcasting a dead Jerry Lawler being revived after a heart attack, and then having CM Punk and Paul Heyman mock the heart attack in front of Lawler (WWE)

While that was bad, even worse was selling t-shirts after the fact to cash in on what happened.

Worst Feud: John Cena vs. Kane (WWE)

I'm sure there's been worse.

Other than that everything else looks good. Surprised to see Impact win best show.

Some of these results are just freakin' weird.

How on Earth can TNA be voted the 2nd Worst Promotion, but TNA Impact voted the Best Weekly Television show (by a pretty good margin over the WWE shows too)? I mean I understand there are other factors that go into deciding how good a promotion is, but if they have the best TV show, shouldn't that ease off almost winning worst promotion?

How in God's name is John Cena third most charismatic when half the fans hate his guts even though he's supposed to be the top babyface? And heck, if this week's Raw is any indicator, a lot of them don't even have the energy to react to him anymore.

How is Cena Vs. Kane the worst feud? I mean yeah it was bad, but seriously? The worst?!?! Claire Lynch and that whole fiasco was not as bad as Cena/Kane, really?! AJ/Vickie is probably the only one I would accept being worse than Claire Lynch since it ripped off elements from that.

And I don't understand this about the Observer awards. What is the difference between Wrestler of the Year (Flair/Thesz award) and Most Outstanding Wrestler? Isn't that the same thing?

I am amazed so many people here can't grasp the fact WWE has 5 TV shows now. Those 5 shows spilt the vote.

The guy comes in as a jobber killer with a winning streak. Starts getting over with his chant. Is put into a main event storyline because of John Cena's injury. Has a match with the WWE Champion CM Punk at Hell in the Cell which bumps up the buyrate for the PPV from last year. Remains over, but never wins the WWE Championship. Loses a triple threat match by shenanigans which involve three top prospects from NXT. Loses a TLC tag match to the said group. Loses a TLC match for the WWE Championship because of that said group.

He's over as hell. Even though he does get "Goldberg" chants, he even get's big pops in smark cities like Philadelphia. I haven't heard him outright booed yet.

So tell me, how is he overrated?

This is an extremely ignorant claim if you look at what promotion the match of the year came from for the past 4-5 years.

I take it don't read many Wrestler autobiographies some have listed the awards among the greatest accomplishments.

Man, wrestling observer really hates Kane eh?

No, I like wrestlers who are able to evoke emotion from a crowd and can play a character effectively.

Ryback does both, Kidd does neither.
