The Resume

    (March 26, 1977- )
    Wrestles for the WWE
    Former WWE Tag Team Champion
    One half of the tag team La Resistance

Why he might be annoying:

    He's actually a model who was just in the right place at the right time and got offered to get into wrestling.
    His first appearance in the WWE was as a phony referee who screwed over Hulk Hogan in a match with The Rock and the whole deal was just confusing.
    His team La Resistance was originally from France, acting as Frenchman during the time where there was resentment towards France from the United States for their refusal to take part in helping us during the war with Iraq and Afghanistan.
    The whole gimmick caused a huge uproar with fans, especially those involved in the U.S. Armed Forces.
    Once the heat with France died down and Rene Dupree was replaced by Rob Conway in La Resistance, Grenier was all of a sudden from Montreal and became a devoted Canadian and the whole thing with the French hasn't been mentioned since.
    Before his matches, he sings a rendition of 'O Canada' which is completely out of tune and draws huge boos from the fans.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was trained by The Rock's father, Rocky Johnson.
    Although he went from modeling to wrestling, he made the transaction quite nicely and both versions of La Resistance have been successful.
    Although he is hated in the U.S. and other countries, he's a huge fan favorite in Canada, especially Montreal, and the fans went nuts when he and Conway won the tag team titles.
    His finisher, the flapjack, is one of the most devastating tag team finishers today and he's even able to perform the move on guys who weigh around 400 pounds.
