As a singles wrestler Haas's best moments were imitating other wrestlers (Haas Hogan, MVC, The Great Charlie, CHL, Bret 'The Hitman' Haas, Stone Cold Steve Haastin, Charlito, GlammaHaas and John Cena)
Charlie Haas's impersonation Gimmick was Gold. The creative names they came up with so many Creative parodies. It was never gonna lead him anywhere in his career but it was good television
...What push? He got ruined by Retribution (in a segment that was better than it should have been simply because, for as weak as Retribution's booking has been, Ali is just golden on the mic. And man did he cut Tucker to shreds during that whole thing). And he hasn't been seen since
I remember just before TNA went onto Spike and were still doing Weekly PPVs they ran Chris Harris as a Baby Face Singles Star and he was all but at the Main Event with an awesome feud with Jarrett, and looked like A HUGE star (well Huge for TNA levels at the time) with Storm being involved and pushing for Harris. Then as soon as they went onto Spike him and Storm teamed up again as Americas Most Wanted and won the tag belts again, while R Truth received another top of the card run
His best work in my opinion, he was boring otherwise. I still remember him dressed as Beth Phoenix and The Great Khali. Can't forget the JBL impersonation. 🤣
I was a fan of Billy Gunn back in the day. Was well behind his singles run. Had some good matches with Rock, Benoit to name a few. Still looks jakked today!
I will never understand how Jim Neidhart didn't click as a singles guy. He had a tough look, could talk, could wrestle, the total package. I guess the it factor can't be explained.
@@carlosjuan-miguel3294 yeah but (seriously no pun intended) a guy the size of Sid makes a great ENFORCER in any stable. Hes huge, mean, and will never take shit from anyone. So it makes sense with Sid. Wtf does Mongo bring to the table? A big tackle?! gtfoh Mongo = worst horseman. he should be washing Romas jock for him.
Jeanetty is full of shit. There is no (not even circumstantial) evidence or even crazy coincidences that anybody can find to back that BS up. Believe me. That shit threw me for a loop too.
Rick Steiner should've been on the list somewhere. One legendary team, another pretty decent faction, but his most notable singles angle involved a killer doll.
@@jtp2007 it’s totally true. Most people seem to misuse the word “underrated”. Watch this: “Buff Bagwell was underrated.” See how that makes no sense. He wasn’t underrated. He simply sucked for most of his career.
@@jrsmith1998 I agree, Buff Bagwell did suck. I think it has as much to do with your opinion about a wrestler though, then whether they were truly underrated. I feel that Power and Glory were underrated and should have stayed a team longer. It does not mean the word is overused though. Who do you think is underrated?
@@jtp2007 let me think for a second. Uhmmm. Underrated, I would say Macho Man Randy Savage in the 1980’s. He was jus as big of a star as Hulk Hogan. And I think people seem to forget that. Of course he is a legend; but I don’t think he gets enough credit still. Underrated potential: the Vaudevillians Underrated: Bad News Brown
Chuck Palumbo was also known as the Main Event in WCW and the replacement for Lex Luger (he even came out to Luger's music, wearing gear similar to Luger's and said he trained at Luger's gym) but somehow falls short of this namesake.
No Animal? No Repo Man? No Brian Knobbs? No Rick Steiner? No Ding? ...and Paul Roma did not deserve to be number one. sorry, no freakin way. Not without even mentioning the likes of Bart Gunn or Crash Holly. Paul Roma gets waaaaaay too much shit and is very underrated.
I understand the argument for Roma being the worst Horseman ever, but that is an incorrect answer. I believe that dubious distinction properly belongs to one Steve "Mongo" McMichael.
Billy actually could have been an upper midcard star on his own, I think. Just handsome enough, just good enough of a talker, just athletic enough. I couldn't see him as a main eventer, but as a forever IC belt contender? Yeah, definitely. Billy had the chops for that. Rocky politicking is what killed him. Plus, the Mr. Ass theme song is fucking great. It's cheesy as hell, but man if it ain't just fun
Marty really was an amazing wrestler he just couldn’t keep it together in a different world Shawn is the lesser half and Marty is a multi time champ 🤷🏻♂️
@@KingPigeon891 So you're admitting that you troll UA-cam comments specifically to try and instigate a fight with AEW fans? But *they're* the problem... C'mon, man.
There's a wrestling game from gamecube i (still) have whereyou can choose raw or smackdown as your brand. If you choose Raw you go into a storyline with evolution who was around at the time of the game's development. But if you choose smackdown they make up a "new ministry" stable and the plot is all the exact same. Only... the part of the story that Batista plays in the Raw storyline is replaced with ....chalrie haas *cue price is right losing horn*
I will never forgive WWE for giving the tag team division the stigma it has. There will never be another Rock 'N Roll Express or Road Warriors as long as people think tag teams are inherently less prestigious than singles stars.
Hahaha As a former codependent smackhead desperate for a fix, it's nice to be represented on a UK rasslin list on UA-cam. Inclus-A-Holic indeed... In all seriousness I been clean for awhile now .
Billy didn't flop harder as a singles star than Bart did, poor bastard won the god awful Brawl For All and was rewarded for almost getting murdered by Butterbean at Wrestlemania because he KO'd the established winner "Dr. Death" Steve Williams
It's a shame Charlie Haas didn't go anywhere. He's such an underrated wrestler. He just had no character. If he had character like Shelton Benjamin did he might have been something.
I disagree about Gunn, he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. He had all the key attributes to be a singles star (charisma, size, agility, stupidly over) but the WWE booking was all wrong, he had absolutely zero chance against The Rock who had taken off and gotten the proverbial rocket strapped to him by that point. Had he been booked correctly and feuded with anybody else that wasn’t The Rock things could have been much much different
My problem with Marty Jannetty was that he never seemed to change, he wore the same ridiculous colourful ring gear, same ugly mullet hair cut and even the cheesy early 90s ring entrance theme music. I think he was great in ring, just seemed to never evolve his character
Once The Rock cut that promo on Bad Ass Billy Gunn after Billy won the King of the Ring you knew it was over before it got started for Mr. Ass LMAO. Rock acting as Billy praying to God was so fucking funny, but it buried Mr. Ass in the process. Hell, if Jericho wasn't as good as he is on the Mic he might have gotten buried himself on his 1st night in the WWE with his back and forth with The Rock. Cena buries ppl backstage with politics, like Hogan...Rock will just kill you in the ring with a promo LOL
Everybody talks about Paul Roma being the worst horseman when it was in fact Steve McMichael I mean seriously the guy couldn't wrestle he had no charisma and no Mic skills Paul Romo was at least a good worker and was around for a couple decades
Paul Roma was much better in a tag team than he was as a singles wrestler, and he was easily the worst and least deserving member of the Four Horsemen. The Four Horsemen were supposed to be the best of the best, and that does not describe Paul Roma.
As a singles wrestler Haas's best moments were imitating other wrestlers (Haas Hogan, MVC, The Great Charlie, CHL, Bret 'The Hitman' Haas, Stone Cold Steve Haastin, Charlito, GlammaHaas and John Cena)
Imitation gimmicks - actually good

@@alzoraig "Stone Cold Steve Haastin"
Charlito
Yeah man.
It was extremely clever.
Give it another year or so, and we'll see Tucker on this list. His singles push failure just hasn't had enough time to sink in yet.
But who would he bounce? Everyone else on this list had much more tag team success
...What push? He got ruined by Retribution (in a segment that was better than it should have been simply because, for as weak as Retribution's booking has been, Ali is just golden on the mic. And man did he cut Tucker to shreds during that whole thing). And he hasn't been seen since
Heavy Machinery were better together and Chad Gable was better with Jason Jordan as American Alpha
I have some news for y’all...
This aged perfectly
How tf did Marty Janety didn't top the Top 10 Marty Janety List ?
The exact moment Gunns singles run ended
Well Bob,
But My Names Billy..
IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT YOUR NAME IS
I remember just before TNA went onto Spike and were still doing Weekly PPVs they ran Chris Harris as a Baby Face Singles Star and he was all but at the Main Event with an awesome feud with Jarrett, and looked like A HUGE star (well Huge for TNA levels at the time) with Storm being involved and pushing for Harris.
Then as soon as they went onto Spike him and Storm teamed up again as Americas Most Wanted and won the tag belts again, while R Truth received another top of the card run

Yeah compare his physique to the garage fed jobbers in AEW. He looks incredible.
I will never understand how Jim Neidhart didn't click as a singles guy. He had a tough look, could talk, could wrestle, the total package. I guess the it factor can't be explained.
You could rename this list as "Ranking the Top 10 Marty Jannettys of all time"
Then that would mean that Paul Roma is more of a Marty Jannetty than Marty Jannetty.
@@TominoCabana
Agreed. But what about Rick Steiner??
Nah. Being a Marty means being in the shadow of ur tag partner. This is just wrestlers who failed as single acts.
@@R2ROsanchez13 Aye otherwise you'd Matt Hardy and Christian in here somewhere.
@@SteRDLK they were both World Champions... plus Matt is a treasure to the wrestling world these days.
The worst Horseman ever is Steve McMichael and it's not even close.
Paul Roma was pretty bad himself.
The worst horseman was that one who killed his wife and child
THANK YOU.
This needs to be a list in itself. I thought Sid was pretty bad.
@@carlosjuan-miguel3294 yeah but (seriously no pun intended) a guy the size of Sid makes a great ENFORCER in any stable. Hes huge, mean, and will never take shit from anyone.

10:49 that came out of nowhere and absolutely sent me
fr though i was like "oh holy sh!t"
Jeanetty is full of shit. There is no (not even circumstantial) evidence or even crazy coincidences that anybody can find to back that BS up. Believe me. That shit threw me for a loop too.
Jannety did win the IC title so I figured him somewhere around 4 or 5. Only for that reason
Agreed. The reason he's seen the way he is has more to do with The Heartbreak Kid's success than it does Marty's lack thereof.
Rick Steiner should've been on the list somewhere. One legendary team, another pretty decent faction, but his most notable singles angle involved a killer doll.
I liked Power and Glory as a team, they were underrated.
They were not underrated.

Shawn Michaels

Lol'd at the its always sunny graphic. Well done boys. ;)
And now Billy Gunn is back to Tag wrestling....with his own son
Dolph Ziggler?!

I absolutely loved Jim Niedhart from the very first time I saw him when I was a kid!! He was just totally nuts, brilliant!!
Love the Always Sunny reference.

Hard to argue the list

I always thought the chuck palumbo gimmick was a knock off and way to similar to american badass yeah wonder who idea that was!!!!
Neidhart was a good single before teaming with Bret, he just wasn't a McMahon guy
I loved chuck when he started coming out on motorbike I really wanted him to be at least ic or us champ to me he had the potential
Marty really was an amazing wrestler he just couldn’t keep it together in a different world Shawn is the lesser half and Marty is a multi time champ 🤷🏻♂️
Could you imagine the story lines that could have happened if Marty stayed sober
@@shawnpsych0soulforce648 absolutely too bad all that talent wasted on addiction 🤦🏻♂️
I dunno how Adam can use being in the Hall of fame as testament to how good someone is. Have you seen some of the names in the WWE Hall Of Fame 😭
I'm sure someone else has already said it but did this list make Marty Jannetty the Marty Jannetty of Marty Jannetties?
Whatever that one guys name was that use to tag with The Great Marty Janetty as The Rockers!!
Ooh! Let's see the flip of this: tag team specialists who had multiple successful and/or popular partnerships!
The way WWE is breaking up tag teams you might have to keep adding to this list
Yeah could have put in the likes of Big Cass, Tucker, Peyton Royce, Billie Kay, Aiden English & Mojo Rawley to name a few
You forgot to mention Billy Gunn's son, Austin, with who he's teaming with in AEW.
AEW is overrated

@@JeremyBearimy913 he was joking bro
If I remember correctly Chuck Palombo was also WCW tag champion with , another failed singles star , Shawn Stasiak .
Jim Niedhart was a singles champion in more than one organisation and was ranked 61 by PWI.
To be fair, Niedhart did well in UFC as Tank Abbott.
With all do respect wrestlamia did this this morning
And W3 years ago.
I’m actually surprised not to see Ted DiBiase Jr. on this list
Mr. Ass had the look but he was missing something to be a top star.
I thought Rick Steiner would be on here
Rick actually had a good run as a single. Nothing groundbreaking or main card but a good decent run.
D von also pinned John Cena
Adam Pacitti: "Paul Roma is the worst Four Horsemen member ever."
Steve McMichael: "Am I a joke to you?!"
Sorry but Roma was worse.
@@chihollywood9379 Roma could at least wrestle. Mongo didn’t know a wristlock from a wristwatch.
@@mdf3530 Roma was a better wrestler but at least Mongo fit da part of a Horsemen
when you see the video withinh the first minute
At least this is not a "First" comment
Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty split up is still iconic
Marty trying to run away thru the window is still great 😂🤣
Umm...how did Rick Steiner get left off of this list??
How is Marty not number 1 when the term the Jannetty of the team is because he did not have success as a singles star ⭐️
Top spot xavier Woods. Jst my opinion deserves so much more than a trumpet

9:25 New York? 🤦♂️🙄
Marty Jannetty and Billy Gunn are underrated wrestlers
Bart Gunn , both Headbangers , Jerry Saggs and many more .
1:15 ah yes, the South-based Philly Promotion.
Because Pennsylvania is right next to Texas and everybody knows it.
I'm a bit surprise that Jim 'the Anvil' Neidhart and Greg 'the Hammer' Valentine were never a team.
Honorable mentions: Big Cass, Tucker Knight, Joey Mercury & Liv Morgan
Bart Gunn , both Headbangers and Jerry Saggs .
billy and road dogg were a awesome tag team, as were shawn and triple h.
Was expecting to see Enzo and/or Cass on this list
Paul Roma is the worst Horseman? Two words Steve McMichael
Never mind that shit! Here comes Mongo!!!
thanks!
Stevie Ray beat Bagwell?. CLEAN?
I will never forgive WWE for giving the tag team division the stigma it has. There will never be another Rock 'N Roll Express or Road Warriors as long as people think tag teams are inherently less prestigious than singles stars.
Why would Marty be number 1.
He was always number 2.
Number 2 in the rockers.
Alleged second degree murder
What about Rick Steiner?
How good would Team Angle/World's Greatest Tag Team vs American Alpha be?
Rename this to 10 Superstars that were not pushed properly. Thanks...

You either leave as a Diesel or stay long enough to see yourself become a Jannetty.
Aren't these the Marty Jannetys?
I'm surprised Buff Bagwell didn't make the list.
I’m surprised he didn’t say Stevie Ray didn’t just get upstaged he was upstaged 5X 5X 5X 5Xs
Billy Gunn should never have had “the ass man” moniker taking away
Actually Polumbo and O'Haire weren't really partners in WCW, it's Stasiac and O'Haire.
How is xpac not on here
Because Xpac was always a singles wrestler. 123 Kid. The Lightning Kid. Syxx. But his injuries and drug abuses always did him in.
They broke up Tram Angle/WGTT and then decided not the pull the trigger on Shelton. Gotta be one of the dumbest things WWE ever did.
Dudley boyz shouldnt split up
We're just gonna forget about David Otunga like that?
I misread the title as "singers" instead of "single stars" and I won't lie I was pretty sad when I realised the truth.
No Rick Steiner?
Billy didn't flop harder as a singles star than Bart did, poor bastard won the god awful Brawl For All and was rewarded for almost getting murdered by Butterbean at Wrestlemania because he KO'd the established winner "Dr. Death" Steve Williams
