10 most overrated legends in WWE history

#7 Kelly Kelly

One of the most infamous ‘Divas’ of the late 2000s

Another example of WWE employing previous wrestlers as Ambassadors/Legends, Kelly Kelly was one of the worst examples of WWE’s dubious treatment towards women during the mid-2000s. She was introduced as an exhibitionist and spent more time doing non-wrestling-related acts than actually wrestling for many years.

She won the Divas Championship in 2011 but didn’t really improve as a performer. Her wrestling style was very much below that of many of her peers at the time, both male and female. It was odd seeing her at the top of the division, especially since WWE was grooming others to take her place.

Kelly’s status as a WWE Legend/Ambassador is highly dubious, given what she represented to WWE during one of its darker periods vis-à-vis presentation of women’s wrestlers.
