It's one thing to come from the mainstream world, learn the ropes and then work your way to the top. Even Ronda Rousey, who is a natural at pro wrestling, only became the consummate professional that she was at WrestleMania 35 after months of slogging as a performer.
Cain Velasquez's first-ever WWE match was for the Championship and one could certainly tell that he wasn't ready for the job. The match that we got to see was structured did not make anyone want to see a second Cain Velasquez match.

The same can be said for Tyson Fury who was thrust into the spotlight almost at once, and the worst part is that Braun Strowman had to lose to him. Fury no-sold a lot of Braun Strowman's power moves and it was pretty cringy to watch.
