Mark Madden

[0.0] "The lowest of low. There were a lot of bad things about late stage WCW but Mark Madden is arguably the worst, because you had to listen to his absolute nonsense the entire show. I feel bad for Pittsburgh sports fans that have to deal with this guy even more."

"Where do I even begin about Mark Madden? This guy is absolutely the worst of the worst of the worst of commentary. When you can make Art Donovan sound like Jim Ross, or make Herb Abrams on commentary sound like Gordon Solie or Lance Russell, you're terrible. Plus, he's kind of a scummy guy from what I heard. From a story I heard Jim Cornette say, apparently during a benefit show for Mark Curtis (Brian Hildebrand) who was struggling with cancer and had some medical bills at the time, he (Madden) had some major heat with Corny at the time. Well, Madden threatened to sue the promoter and take all the money from the benefit show if Jim attacked him. So yeah, Madden sucks."

[0.0] "The only way I would ever think positively of him is if he was better than Bobby Heenan on commentary. An impossible feat so no worries for me. This era of wrestling commentary was fucking brutal. We had schlubs like Madden and Jerry Lawler cat calling every woman and talking shit about their looks if they weren't pleased. Mark Madden is like that fuckin security guard that gets got by Mystique in the first X-Men movie."

[0.0] "Horrendous at actually doing his job, and his perverted comments were way too much even if you want to argue the times were different. Nearly any "insight" he provides during a match acts as a detriment to the viewer's enjoyment, and considering the era of WCW where you can find him commentating you often get an assault on the ears on top of an assault on the eyes."

[0.0] "Mark Madden can go to super hell. Worst commentator ever and horrible person to match. Refused to do the most basic thing as a commentator(put someone over) and whined live on TV while doing nothing to make the largely miserable WCW 2000 any better. Now he just acts like he knows more about the business than he ever did even in his prime and posted some absolutely horrifying stuff about 20 year old Selena Gomez as a 52-53 year old man. Easily one of the worst people to grace the wrestling world and has no business being as highly rated as he is."

[0.0] "The worst commentator I've ever heard, and it's not even close. He's a worse Jerry Lawler without anything worth saying. He exclusively said random stuff or made horrible comments about women. That's all he offered, and with not even an ounce of self-awareness, satire, or humor. Pathetic."

[0.0] "Easily in the top 5 worst commentators of all time. One of the many people who tried to emulate the wit of Heenan or the lecherous charm of Lawler but just came off looking dumb. Combine that with his constant Russophonic language of yelling wrestling terms at the home audience and he is just truly insufferable."

[2.0] "Very below average commentator. He was trying to be WCW version of Jerry Lawler and he did not work in that role. Did not add much to the product and was extremely annoying. He gets a lot of hate due to being the replacement for Bobby the Brain Heenan. Just someone who I never got behind as a commentator."

[1.0] "When this fat tub of goo popped up on WCW commentary, I knew Bobby Heenan was gone from WCW and that was another reason why I couldn't watch WCW anymore. Not only did the booking now suck, but we had this unbearable goof on commentary. His only contribution was yelling "Spinarooni! " which in of itself was fucking annoying too."

[0.0] "mark madden might be one of the most unlikable pieces of shit that's been in the wrestling business. fuck him"

[0.0] "When he wasn't doing a poor attempt at Jerry Lawler-esque commentary (getting googly eyed at all the women) he would just talk random nonsense. Heel commentator or not, he was super annoying and bad, easily proven by just about any other commentator in WCW at the time (and boy, were there a lot of them... )"

[1.0] "Well yes, he was exactly this bad. Plus the fact that he was linked with the worst period of WCW didn't help him at all."

[0.0] "This guy's annoying as hell, he was terrible commentator who was only interested in popping the boys and maybe the smarks because he was a wrestling "Journalist"."

[0.0] "Of all the "professional" commentators I've ever heard, this guy is up there as one of the worst if not THE worst. Although Don West is pretty terrible too, Mike Adamle as well but at least he was funny. This guy just was just really obnoxious and disgusting. Madden also comes off as a complete piece of shit outside the business as well if that Brian Hildebrand story has any truth to it."

[0.0] "There are a lot of unlikable people who've worked in the wrestling business, but Mark Madden ranks pretty high up on that list. His stuff in WCW was embarrassing & his columns & opinion pieces post WCW were maddening."

[0.0] "Mark Madden was a terrible commentator, who was only interested in getting himself over, as well as any friends he may have had at that particular time."

[0.0] "Certainly the worst commentator of all time. Grating, obnoxious, loving to "shoot" and shriek offensive things as often as possible. There is no one in history I would rather listen to less."

[0.0] "Unfortunately, we still have to suffer through hearing this big fat slob's opinions on any Pittsburgh sports talk show. Literally is the most annoying radio personality in Pittsburgh (and that's an accomplishment when we've got people like Ron Cook)!"

[4.0] "Sometimes entertaining, sometimes extremely annoying. Really one of the most polarising figures in WCW's history (and that's saying something! )"
