Who, In your opinion, just ruined wrestling matches for you? Or someone that was on a show, that made you have to channel?
For me, it's Earl Hebner. He made it so obvious when someone was supposed to kick out, when we saw a near fall he would do a dive, and stick his hand under the guys shoulder.. Then look supper tired after doing it. Drove me absolutely insane...
Example at 16:19.... watch Hebner slip his hand under Austin's shoulder. I remember Hebner turned this into a bad habit, and ruined every match he refee'd .

Also regarding Hebner, whenever the wrestler was going to win, he would do a really really slow 3 count for dramatic purposes. I noticed that a lot of the times when doing this, he wouldn't even look at the shoulders of the wrestler.

Can't point to many individuals who have consistently ruined a match for me but here are some common actions that have:
To many mini talks between wrestlers. Sometimes it is a little to easy to tell when someone is calling spots and when a reversal is coming.
Multiple Finishers - If the move is so devastating use it once to end a match, if it takes to much to use it late in a match use a power move to end it. Please stop using 15 finishers in a match that could end on a surprise roll up or DDT.
Stealing a Finisher - I get it is a sign of disrespect, however it gets old. My move didn't work so let me use his.....oh, he kicked out....

Anyone who used the trapezius hold.
It was garbage. Worst rest hold/submission ever. It looked stupid, it was stupid and I hate it.

Hulk Hogan, Nasty Boys, Bushwhackers, & Earthquake are the only ones I can think of for now.

Ultimate Warrior getting his push made me turn off wrestling for 4 years.
I never liked Edge going for the pin...he would react astonished and pulling his hair out BEFORE his opponent fully kicked out. Telegraphed it every time.

Multiple Finishers- I get 2-3 but that is it. Hogan Michael Cole and Jerry Lawlers commentary - it is just so bad. Why not use Matt Striker and Josh Mathews?

But, I said the same thing the other day watching Bo on NXT. He won the match with a spear and dude is skinny as a rail. Christian shouldn't be using it either. Ryback should but it'd only increase his Goldberg chants.
