Rey is praised but not enough. Rey has been the best in-ring performer since last July and is somewhat ignored, he doesn't get the love of say a Jericho or a jabrone like Morrison and he should be.
Miz is under rated to me by many here, including people who think he's shit in the ring. He's very solid and the best youngster on the roster.
Ziggler gets love and deserves none. I might have been a little hasty in that, but he sucks fat nuts.
Ziggler was cool when he first came on Raw, then he went to SD, got generic music, and adopted a Russian legsweep as his finisher. He's more solid than Miz, i'd say, just turned into Johnny Generic.
Rey is a 1/10th of what he was in WCW, if that. He's still a good wrestler, but I would have to disagree with him being the best worker, in fact his only notable (non-squah match) feud was with Jericho...in which Jericho carried. Like I said, maybe 10 years ago before the aging, tattoos, and roids. I like him, but he's just a super popular upper mid-card talent nowadays.
Miz has improved...but what? How many great matches has Miz had? He's a ** match max worker at this point. I wouldn't call him the best anything, even moreso than broken down Rey. Miz at least has potential, which was unfathomable in '07, but I think we're jumping the gun when HE is considered the best "young gun" around.

Since 04?
His entire feud with Orton through 05, especially the casket match at No Mercy and the Hell In A Cell match at Armageddon. Hell, even their Wrestlemania match was pretty good.
vs Angle No Way Out 06
vs Kennedy Survivor Series 06
vs Kennedy Armageddon 06
vs Batista at WM23
vs Batista Last Man Standing Backlash 07 was brilliant.
The steel cage match that he and Batista had that ended in a draw.
vs Batista Survivor Series 07
vs Edge Wrestlemania 24
vs Edge ONS 08
vs Edge Summerslam 08
vs Hardy Extreme Rules on Smackdown in 08
vs Show & Jericho Survivor Series 09
vs Jericho on Smackdown in February.
Obviously not counting the 2/3 matches he had with Punk and the 2 Shawn Michaels matches, but to say he hasn't had any good-great matches in 6 years is ridiculous. There's probably more TV matches, they're all the one's I remember.
If he's not regarded as one of the best in the world, he's being underrated imo.
This, tho I don't appreciate the calling of JoMo as a jabroni. >_>
Not to mention the fact that earlier in his career, 'Taker had some horrid matches. He's gotten better and better.
Rand E.Orton
Also Sheamus and Drew (Though Drew is the more overrated of the two by far).
Can't believe I forgot to mention JOHN MORRISON! Seriously, there are people that have compared him to a young HBK... That's overrating someone just a bit.

Really? Almost everyone here is waiting on him to retire. I don't think I've ever heard someone praise Kane for some of the matches he's been in.
Christian and Edge, in-ring ability. If it wasn't for the long hair and pot belly of Edge, I swear I'm looking at the same person in the ring. Both can get the crowd behind them but there's nothing special about them in the ring.
And I personally have to say Miz is overrated for the plain fact I haven't seen enough of his matches because they always end in DQ or a roll up. But his mic skills are great.
Yep, and you'll see some of the finest one to two star matches ever.
Forgot about MVP being overrated too.
How has no one quoted and pulled you up on this yet. Jericho did not carry that feud atall I actually remeber a few good promos form Rey and Rey worked their matches excellently. Rey has had loads of 'non-squash match' feuds and since you didn't mention a time frame I am forced to mention some from years ago (I won't mention them all as it would take to long, I can't be arsed and I can't remeber them all) such as Randy/Rey I'm sure I remember that being excellently worked, Rey/JBL that was one of his best feuds imo, Rey/Chavo was a quite good feud and what about Rey/Eddie that was pure gold and as for recent feuds he has had one against Jericho as you have already mentioned which was great, Rey/Dolph was ok it would have been better if Dolph got a win and I almost forgot Rey/Edge from a couple of years ago which was great. So I guess Rey has had a few notable feuds.
I was only talking about what Enzo said, which was from July '09 on. :/ Rey's promos were terrible and it was a carbon copy (without the "monster" silly-ness) of Rey's Kane feud from a year earlier. Like I said, after the years of wear-down and roid abuse he's not the same or as good as before. Bottom line.
