Bret hart in a landslide....dude could make any match great while still incorporating the fundamentals, in his book he shits all over flair as being a great wrestler...Ethered flair saying he can only wrestle his way do his spots that's it, he can only do 1 thing Rick flair lol....Bret the GOAT and by far the realest of all time too....hope you enjoyed him while he lasted you won't ever see something like that again. Read his book, straight BRUTAL honesty

@Pswayze166 that's Bret Hart being Bret Hart and a hater of Flair, let's be real Hart is a hater and he hate's on everyone, i am a fan of Bret Hart but i know Hart is a hater, Ric Flair is a amateur champion just like HART but Hart aint never face a career ending type of injury like RIC FLAIR when RIC FLAIR was in a plane crashed that broke his back in 1975, Flair was not only supposed to never wrestled again but he was never supposed to walk with out a cane, flair came back in 6 months.

So Flair had to change his wrestling style due to that back injury, he was still a scientific wrestler but it wasnt like how he was before his back injury.

Hart just mad because FLAIR dropped that burn slow in Flair's book

Ric Flair Tells Bret Hart how it is

disagree with hart being a hater.....he HATED shawn michaels and never once said he was a bad wrestler....he calls it 100% no faking, and being as great as he is in the art of wrestling his opinion means something. Ric is great, but he aint fucking with bret wrestling wise technically....not close......just check flair's matches against savage and watch bret's matches with macho. The answer is right there, nevermind bret's matches with henning etc

I don't have to watch Flair vs Savage when i can upload Ric Flair vs Ricky Steamboat that was judge by the greatest technical wrestlers in history in Lou Thez, Pat O'connor and Terry Funk at the Wrestle War that is a wrestling clinc the greatest match in 89, or i can watch Ric Flair vs Barry Windham another great technical wrestler and one of the greatest technical match in the 80's.

Or if that not enough how about a mat and grappling clinc when Ric Flair wrestled with one of the greatest of all times in pure technical skill in The Great Jack Brisco.

See Ric Flair turns it on when he wants too, that's why he is still in everybody's top 10 because when he want to put holds on and mat wrestle he can, will and done it with the greatest of technicians, and have the bouts to back it up, that's the reason he's not in my top 5, because he only mat wrestle when he wants to.

9) CHRIS BENOIT

During his childhood and early adolescence in Edmonton, Benoit idolized Bret Hart and the Dynamite Kid (Tom Billington, later one-half of WWF tag team champions the British Bulldogs). After viewing countless pirated tapes of Dynamite's legendary matches from Japan against Tiger Mask, Benoit soon decided to join his idol in the wrestling profession. When Benoit was fifteen he met Dynamite for the first time, flexed his biceps, and proclaimed he wanted to be just like him. Michael Benoit, Chris's father, though not a wrestling fan, nonetheless encouraged his son by buying him a set of weights for strength training and muscle development and, later, by allowing him to drive to Calgary, some three hours away, to train in the Hart family "Dungeon". After years of strenuous training under Bruce Hart, and later under Stu Hart himself, Benoit began his career in 1985, the year Hart promised to make him wait, as it was the year he finished high school, in Stu Hart's Stampede Wrestling promotion. It was during this time that Benoit would grow close to Bret Hart, referring to him as a "role model"

10) "THE NATURE BOY" RIC FLAIR (WHAT???? i know yall didn't think that Ric Flair wasn't going to make this list, lol.....)

Why is Ric Flair is so low on the list, and why is Ric Flair is always mention as one of the greatest technical wrestler of all times... It's because Ric Flair is the most rounded wrestler in wrestling history, when RIC FLAIR want to wrestle scientifc and technical, Ric Flair will wrestle that style but later in his career in the 80's he wrestled technical against those who he consider worthy. Ric Flair is a state champion in Amateur Wrestling in High School and was trained by NCCA College great and Pro Wrestling Great and Technical wrestling Vern Gagne.

In both 1966 and 1968, Flair won the state private school wrestling championship and was recruited to the University of Minnesota on a football scholarship, where he played alongside Greg Gagne, the son of Verne Gagne. Flair dropped out of college before receiving his degree, and he then worked as a bouncer at a nearby club, where he met Olympic weightlifter Ken Patera (and Trained as a Power Lifter with Ken Patera and got up to 280 pounds), who was preparing for a ring career at Verne Gagne's wrestling school. Patera introduced Flair to Verne Gagne, who agreed to take him on as a member of his training class

@ratchetbilly that's a good fuckin pick, you know your wrestling q very underrated wrestler with great technical skills, WCW fucked up, he was WORLD CHAMPION talent and deserved a title shot, but WCW was head over heels with NWO

even though he was a USWA, Smokey Mountain and GCW of NWA Champion he didnt get the respect he deserve, Greats like Dusty Rhodes and Ole said he one of the most complete and gifted wrestler in the industry.

Road Dogg Shuckin N Jivin was not even 1/10 of a wrestler as his brother Brad

When I think of technical wrestling, I think of Bret Hart.

 

[waterproof]

Shawn Michaels was a great technical wrestler when he went solo rocking the black and white with Sherri Martel as his manager and his finishing move was back suplex and he was a heel, I was a fan he showcase his scientific skills, Triple H in his early years also

 

[dalyricalbandit]

Bret was on a level by himself when speaking Technical wrestlers

 

[jono]

I'm gonna go ahead with Chris Benoit. Those exchanges with Angle are some of the best WRESTLING matches of all time. Their Royal Rumble match is legendary, they never had a bad match.

When it comes to the old school guys I think Nick Bockwinkel deserves more credit, as does Ted DiBiase
