Wrestler of the Week (04/25-05/01)

[Brandon Hanvey]

Welcome to the TV/Film board's Wrestler of the Week poll.

Each week you'll get your chance to pick the wrestlers who you think entertained, competed, or did the best during the previous week.

People can list up to 5 picks (you can list only one if you want). But you must at least rank them from 1 to 5 since I will be giving points depending on how the picks are ranked. You can either choose a single wrestler for a pick or a tag team as a pick. You can also break up tag teams into individual picks.

There is no real criteria for why you pick who you pick. It can be whoever you did best that week, whoever you enjoyed the most that week, or however you decide who makes your favorites at that time. It can be from any company, federation or country. As long as the person did something that week in the industry. Just listing your all time favorite who didn't do anything that week is not in the spirit of the game.

I'm going to limit this pick thread to only listing people's picks. You can list why you picked who you picked. But comments and responses to people's picks should be kept to the main wrestling thread.

This week's poll is for wrestlers who were active during the week of 04/25/11-05/01/11. This poll will be open until 05/02/11 6PM PST/9PM EST.

[The Once And Forever]

3. Kharma

[Brandon Hanvey]

You have up to 5 ranked picks. Though you can choose only one pick if you want.

[EZMOHR]

Christian by a mile. This should've happened in August of 2005. Christian and the Peeps are finally on top.

[C-Cool]

1) Christian - No brainer. WHC title acquired, Grand Slam Champ. Career fulfilled.

2) Alberto Del Rio - I was proud of him for this match. He did very well in it. I give him props.

3) Kharma - She gave McCool the reason why HARM is in her newly acquired name.

4) R-Truth - Getting more and more momentum for a small main event run at the near end of his career (look how old he is for the reason why).

5) John Cena - Ended Miz's long title run... yeah... great... awesome... meh.

[master of read]

christian. nuff said.

[Ronald Bryan]

1. Christian - He won the belt.
2. John Cena - He did win the belt so he has to be on here.
3. John Morrison - He was forgotten on Raw and lost the match but had the biggest showing in it and that match made up for the earlier part of the week, if it wasn't for...
4. R Truth - The heel turn could be huge as so far he has gone right into stardom if they keep this up.
5. Kharma - strong debut.

[The Zapper]

Christian. And I'm so glad to say it.

[worstblogever]

Christian, for all his peeps.

[Shade]

1. Christian- no doubt. Long deserved and so glad to see him hold that belt.
2. CM Punk - I'm SO tired of his feud with Orton, yet he managed to make me enjoy their match even in his losing effort.
3. Cody Rhodes -Im loving his character and he has really stepped up and shown he can WORK in this feud with Rey. Like Punk, even in his loss I thought he came off looking stellar for HIS work.
4. Michelle McCool- Im sure not a popular choice, but she did a great job putting over Layla and showed great emotion in the match. Plus she went out showing what a beast Kong is.
5. R-Truth- I'm not a fan of the guy actually, but he has taken this turn and ran with it and done a great job.

Christian all the way though.

[MagSeven]

Christian
Michelle McCool- She really was good in the ring
Layla - She can take awesome bumps and really sell them
CM Punk - Always entertaining. Especially his facial expressions in his story telling
Michael Cole- Undefeated! Though, even I am starting to hate the man!

[noh-varr]

1) Christian - FINALLY a world champion in the E.

2) R-Truth - that little Jimmy promo was great, and he is making the heel turn work for him.

3) Kharma - A big debut on a PPV destroying McCool and helping to get a brief but interesting focus on the Diva division that has been ignored for ages.

4) Cena - He won the belt again and that does mean something.

5) Alberto Del Rio - He fell short of the belt again but it was a great match.

[BeastieRunner]

Christian -- for being the man.
Kharma -- BITCHES GONNA DIE!!!
Cody Rhodes -- looking strong even while losing.
Del Rio -- looked good despite losing.
R-Truth -- his heel turn is doing wonders for his career.

[Legato]

Honorable mentions

Cena: He had to win to look strong in his confrontation with The Rock tomorrow

McCool: Admittingly I'm not a big fan of her but she and Layla stepped up in their match. That was one of the best diva matches I have seen. Also liked how she made Kharma look good in her debut

Cody Rhodes: Yeah he lost to Mysterio but still looked strong regardless

Del Rio: Has shown that he is main event material and one day he will become champion.
