There is a reason why HHH, Rock, and Austin’s first fued after winning the title was against foley. There is a reason why people say Orton and Edge as legit main eventers after going against foley. Hell even HBK and Undertaker got pushed to new limits with Foley. He made guys go to new levels and made them all more respected afterwards. Foley can’t wrestle every style, but he makes everything and one look 10x better while being in the ring with him.

I think this question and how they are defined as “bad” really sums up a much bigger issue in all of society. The quality of things has increased so much in the last several decades that many cannot go back or look back at something fondly. This is a weird example of it reminds me of the animation industry in how since the last decade of western animation have now shift to storytelling long arcs with deep character development, many fans refuse to go back to the old style of shows that were more simpler/self contained stories in one episode. I think many fans have been spoiled with great wrestling talents that they will look back as some legends as “bad” because they don’t have the “flashy” style we are so use to today

But to argue about it being unrealistic I will never understand. It's like arguing superhero movies are too unrealistic, you'd be right but that's kinda the point.

Solomonster ….. thank you so much. You earned mad respect from me today. I actually really do love that instead of just ranking these guys, you actually did explain why you think some of them are good workers and I couldn’t agree more. If I made a list of the top 50 worst workers Mick Foley still wouldn’t be on that list. I just think the guy who sent that to you is a product of today’s time and they’ve all been convinced being a good worker you go in and give a gymnastics routine. I’m not saying that isn’t hard to do and that you don’t need talent to do that. I believe this generation wrestlers and fans alike really don’t know the definition of what being a good worker is. No, Hogan wasn’t a technical wrestler, but the man was a worker without a doubt, was Kevin Nash a great worker? No but I really feel like because of Jim Cornett comments he made in the 90s about Kevin and that was something both he and Dave Melzer both agreed on. They both hated him as a person I think that’s convinced people that he never really got better and that’s really not true. if you go look at his first two years in wrestling and then go pick up from the fall of 1995 all the way through early 99. You can tell the guy got a lot better. I mean he did what the other seven footers of his day did. I’ve never understood these people that an undertaker match from 1993 shows how good of a worker he is but then they want to say Kevin is the shits because he only had five moves. The only thing I would disagree with you is, I would have to have Goldberg as the worst. You said yourself even though other than that match with HBK was his best one that he had lots of other decent matches, but numb that ever stood out. I agree with that statement, but here’s the thing about Goldberg. Other than maybe like if you listed his top 3 to 5 best matches they would all be with other great workers that knew him and knew how to work with him you can’t say he’s got lots of decent matches. Like his whole WCW run if you take Brett Hart out of the equation and don’t include his matches. His two best matches are with DDP and Kevin Nash. I actually do like the 1998 Starcade match those two had they both went deep in the bag and did some things you normally don’t see them do and contrary to popular belief yes, every WCW fan wanted Kevin to win you can watch the tape how we reacted. it was just everything that match that was the downfall. But outside of that match he had with DDP and the other one he had with Kevin if you don’t include the stuff with Brett Hart, he didn’t have lots of decent matches 90% of his matches were terrible. It was literally just him doing his moves. That was it. Coincidentally, I just saw the footage you were talking about where he almost kills the barbarian and Jimmy Hart. One of them was supposed to be a power slam to the barbarian, and somehow he fucked up the power slam to where Barb just landed on his head. And I thought he killed Jimmy Hart. I could hop in a wrestling ring right now and do that move to someone that knew how to take that bump. I mean it’s kind of like you don’t have to be a wrestling fan you kind of just have to know how gravity works and how the human body breaks to do that move correctly. Instead of throwing him on his back, he smeared him kind of like how he was trying to spar a fish with a harpoon . there’s two people throw people when they are in gorilla pros even if it happened in a street fight you either throw them right down in front of you or you toss them off to the side he invented a new way and the only way to do that move to break someone’s neck. He couldn’t have tried any harder unless someone instructed him to throw Jimmy like he was going to break his neck. he couldn’t think when he was out there unless you told him to do and how to do it he was going to be lost and another reason I take points away from Goldberg is because at no point in his career did he ever try to get better. Kevin Nash and big show didn’t get to start in the territories they got started on national television but both those guys went on and worked at getting better. No they were never Ricky steamboat but they got better. Goldberg from 1996 until he almost killed the undertaker by dropping him on his head, has not gotten any better. And that’s because he doesn’t care to try you can’t be in that profession and not tell me that there weren’t people offering to help him be better. Probably guys that knew they would have a match with him and wanted him to know what he was doing so they don’t end up like Brett Hart or the undertaker.

You won’t get any argument from me that Sid’s best match was when he won the WWF Title against Shawn Michaels at the 1996 Survivor Series. I remember most of the crowd booing Shawn (who was supposed to be the babyface) out of the building that night, and cheering for Sid (the supposed heel) when he attacked José Lothario with a television camera. The way Lothario sold it you would think the guy was having a heart attack right there on the floor 😂😂😂. Serves him right for being on the apron trying to interfere and not minding his own business. But I also found his title defence against Bret Hart the next month at In Your House: It’s Time (it still baffles me that Vader wasn’t on that show when it was basically named after him. Was he injured at the time?) and his rematch against Michaels at the Royal Rumble in the Alamodome the following month pretty entertaining. Sure, Shawn had the flu in the rematch, but to me, that’s even more of a compliment that the match (for me, at least) was still as entertaining as it was. But for sure, nothing was on the level of Survivor Series 1996. The match had an epic/big fight feel to it, and bell to bell, it’s Sid’s best match hands down. So for me, Sid’s 3 best matches all come within 2 months of each other. As per usual, Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels have a lot to do with that. There seems to be a pattern developing here. It is just me? 🤔

The interesting thing with professional wrestling is that profile will elevate the notoriety of a wrestler’s poor workrate. For example if someone asked me to name the worst worker (note not wrestler) in the history of the industry I’d probably rattle off the name “Warrior” nine times out of ten. But reflectively was Warrior truly any less of a competent worker than Outback Jack who was hired on the recommendation of one of Vince McMahon’s underlings (forgetting his name at the moment) despite never having seen Outback Jack work a match. Turns out Outback Jack only had around two months worth of matches under his belt and was cycled through WWE in under a year. But nobody mentions Outback Jack as being a notoriously bad worker because only the diehards remember him.

I don't understand Mick Foley being on this list. Did people not enjoy working with Mick?

Sid and Goldberg are awesome. Big dumb jocks that wrestled how they were supposed to given their skillset. They were way more exciting to watch than Nash and Hogan. Sid was also really charismatic, but was just missing something to complete the package. Luger in 1989 NWA is awesome. Foley wasn't by any mean bad, I can't think of anyone that dislikes his work.

Anybody that says "Hogan can't work" are one of two things ignorant or disingenuous.

There are a handful of Warrior matches that have greater replay value for me than most of the stuff I remember Sid in. Just the way it is.

I would take Sid off the list and put Chyna. Big fan of hers but a spade is a spade.

Bad workers? Unlike most of the current wrestlers, most of the bad workers drew money, and everybody knew who they were. Who the fook knows kevin owens, sammy Zain, Cody, Seth rollins? These guys will never draw significant interest to the product and will never be household names. A good worker draws money, not the ability to do a 450 splashing you freaking mark!

Dean Malenko never drew in a career what Warrior did in a couple of hours… I’d rather be a “bad worker” than a technical master

Sid Vicious was the drizzling shits in the ring. Never understood how he was so over at certain points of his career.
