What opinions do you have that seem to be unpopular?
ONE Opinion where you don't like something everyone else seems to. ONE Opinion where you like something other people tend not to. No fighting or trying to force someone to change their opinion, let's keep it civil.
For me: I DON'T like Keith Lee/Dijakovic's matches. At all. I find them very formulaic. Very bland. It's just spot after spot, no story, no drama. Just "how much stuff can we kick out of." It feels very "forced" to be a good match. Like they saw one 5-Star rated match and was like "Let's do that without the nuances." Just not a fan. I dread every time I see they are gonna wrestle.
I DO like 2003. I see that 2003 gets hated on a lot online! lol I think the reign of terror is to blame for that, but I personally love it! I liked the reign of terror at the time! I liked the Test/Steiner feud! I loved La Resistance when they came in! I loved Christian's entire year here! The Brock/Angle feud! I was just a huge fan of this year and I see a lot of people say it's one of WWE's worst.
So what are you two unpopular opinions?

I always find it very interesting how certain things click for some people, but do not for others.
Here are mine.
I Don't Like Dolph Ziggler. For a guy who is called "the show off" I could not tell you one match where he has actually stolen the show that he was on. He tries his best to be like Mr. Perfect or Shawn Michaels, but he just comes across as a very poor imitation to me.
I Do Like The New Generation Era. I was a teenager during this time and I just ate up everything the WWF did. I think a huge part of my love for this era is that my closest friends were all huge wrestling fans too. This era for most people is seen as the dark days of the WWF, but I had an awesome time.

It's so hard to limit it to 1 of each... So i'm just going to list off a few of mine that i can think of right now.
Unpopular Dislikes - Roderick Strong is the weakest member of Undisputed Era. - I don't get the hype for Humberto Carillo, he's honestly not that impressive. - Rhea Ripley's theme song is atrocious.
Unpopular Likes - HBK's pants > HBK's tights. - King Barrett was a good gimmick. - I liked WWE-ECW. I thought it was good for what it was. - Shinsuke's current attire > Shinsuke's old attire. - Riddick Moss is a star, and should be a future World Champion. - Mysterio's pants > Mysterio's tights. - Bald Kane > Masked Kane

- I don’t like Shayna Bazler AT ALL. She just comes across as reckless and her look is so weird I just can’t get used to looking at her.
- the Broken Hardys run, that ended with them coming back at WM is the greatest tagteam run IN ALL OF SPACE AND TIME!

Don’t like Shayna Baszler and Rusev.
If liking 2003 is frowned upon, then count me in. That was my first full year as a fan, so I was hooked.

Vince McMahon has never created a star organically and is incapable of doing so.
I can't stand supernatural elements in wrestling. Therefore, American Badass is the best version of the Undertaker.

Unpopular Dislikes- I don't get the hype for Humberto Carillo, he's honestly not that impressive. Unpopular Likes
- Riddick Moss is a star, and should be a future World Champion. Humberto - I think his name sucks, as does his haircut. For some reason both stop me from getting behind him. Moss - I wouldn't say world champion, but he is a very good at working the crowd, he was one of the stand outs when I saw NXT live.

unpopular dislike - I don’t really enjoy any women’s wrestling.
unpopular like - I miss the old school tough guy approach to the business, and wish aspects of it returned (not the drugs and abuse of one another though).

Dislike - Every member of the Wyatt family. They all absolutely suck. Like - The New Generation Era and Diesel's WWF title reign

1. Drew McIntyre
2. Sasha Banks
That about sums it up.
Edit: 1. Could have been Becky Lynch. But "dislike" doesnt describe the feeling.

This era for most people is seen as the dark days of the WWF, but I had an awesome time. I agree with both points. For Ziggler, I know he tries to compare himself to those two but I've always seen him as more of a Billy Gunn than those two. And for the New Generation, I enjoyed it too, it didn't have the roster depth that other eras had but the top guys were very good and entertaining.

Cool idea. Ziggler was my first thought for unpopular dislike, but someone already said it. I just don't enjoy him.
Unpopular dislike: Attitude Era. Yep, I said it. I don't mean the Rock or SCSA, but the overall product and lack of quality wrestling. If I wanted to watch Jerry Springer, I'd have gone and watched Jerry Springer. I wanted to watch wrestling. The rabid college audience that just wanted to watch porn drove me nuts. My first women's match I saw was Alundra Blayze/Bull Nakano. To go from actual women's wrestling to softcore porn, no thanks. There are plenty of places to watch that, I wanted women's wrestling. Turned me off WWE for a long time.
Unpopular Like: Baron Corbin. I really don't get the hate. Dude works hard, is athletic as hell, is a classic cigar/whiskey/billiards dude in his spare time. Sticks up for superstar safety, and does a pretty good job with what he's given. Some of the stuff sucks, but as guys like Mox have shown, sometimes the writers give you crap, and you have to shoot a dog food angle. I like bald jackass Corbin a lot better than long hair Corbin.

Like: Brock Lesnar is awesome and it's how he's booked that makes him blah, not him.
Dislike: Alexa Bliss' mic skills. She always get hyped for them but Moment of Bliss dies a slow death every time, and the Bayley "This is Your Life" segment might be the worst segment I've seen since '16. I suppose you could argue that's on how they're written, but if you're considered one of the best mic workers shouldn't you be able to elevate them to at least "average"?

Lame, but I also can't pretend to get overly upset about Lesnar not wanting to work the match with Ambrose when I don't even really want to watch it. Not caring about Ambrose could probably be my other unpopular take.

I have a lot of dislikes:
- Humberto Carillo ( I cannot get behind him and I hate him watching him wrestling and always doing arm drags) - Andrade ( I get he is a great wrestler but in no way he's the next Eddie, I also think his attire is very bland) - Angel Garza (Not a fan of him and I hate how he switches attires during the match) - Kevin Owens (No matter what he does, I will never be a fan of him. He doesnt do the Stone Cold Stunner right either)
Likes: - Seth Rollins and his Monday Night Messiah Gimmick - Bayley's heel run, she started off okay but her heel run has grown on me
Unpopular Likes: - I miss seeing characters and gimmicks, most of the wrestlers aren't bigger than life and it's hard for me to find them seriously especially when I meet them in persona and I'm bigger and taller than 70% of the roster.

I see a lot of people like the Monday Night Messiah gimmick. I feel like that's actually the popular opinion. lol I was never the biggest Bayley fan, but I have LOVED her heel run! These past few weeks, she's been amazing. Since the PC shows started, she has absolutely slayed it in my opinion. I find her genuinely funny and fun to watch now!
