Stone Cold - took the business to new heights perhaps the biggest name in the late 90's
The Rock - some what Stone colds Macho man, Austin was 1a rock was 1b
Dynamite Kid/ Chris Benoit - Most aggressive wrestler ever every move was executed with passion made every move they did seem like it legitimately hurt!
Curt "Mr Perfect" - the name said it all Perfect everything was executed smooth and perfect

Kurt Angle - could wrestle u on the mat or take it to the top rope

[G.R.I.P. Money $$$]

d-lo is that nigga!!

although not enough to be on a list like this, his opinion tho

 

[hiphophova]

you guys cant be serious Cody Rhodes is a student of wrestling he knows what makes a Wrestler stand out and puts unique mannerism into his ring performance, he got bursted onto the limelight far to early but look at his Mask-Gimmick that was great. Him, Ted Dibiase and Randy Orton got raised in wrestling they know their shit inside out and not fans of pop culture wrestling like the Rock like Miz is.

Them dudes take pride in their look and abilities, i see them as all future HOF but writting and booking in 2011 has been shitty.

Bret Hart said 'Mr.Perfect is the most gifted guy his been in the ring with' ... Mr.Perfect took the great HBK and others under his wing, he is one of the most loved heels ever and he would go hard at the babyface even in losses he was victorious, him and the brain bobby heenan.

You know wrestling, you got to love Curt Hennig just like you got to love HBK, they embodied superstar althetes and performers.

everyone on my list i would watch just because of them, D-Lo is on there because his shake his head swag and mannerism was geniunely funny in a physco way.

Wrestling is the greatest show ever.

 

[DOPEdweebz]

I think I'mma compile a separate US, Mexican, and Japanese list, I'm currently reviewing years of footage from 80s - now to make an absolute list.. fuck it I might even restart a website after I'm done...

 

[dalyricalbandit]

I can only speak from the mid/late 80's - now

that mask gimmick shit was wack....and orton and dibiase were raised in wrestling but the rock wasnt?? and u can put d-lo in there based off of swag (wich is ok with me thats just another word for entertainment ability) but the rock is a no go??

 

[urhinest]

the undermining of Hulk Hogan is completely disrespectful to pro wrestling.

Yall dont realize that w/o Hogan there prolly woulda never been wrestling as we know it.

Anyone that says "hogan wasnt good in the ring" is really jus an assclown. An ignoramous. Hogan's gimmick wasnt to be Mr Wrestling. Hogan was supposed to be the draw. The super hero that kept the tickets selling. And ya know what???? He did his damn job. he did his job better than most. Only the Rock and super Cena have a shot at saying they did it as big as Hogan.

buh-lee-dat and respect it

 

[Copper]

yeah no doubt Hulk Hogan brought the $$$ to wrestling as well as global recognition

 

[dalyricalbandit]

thats why i cant hate on cena cause cena is the one who draws them crowds

 

[marc123]

as long as the list includes Flair, Sting and RVD....fuk everything else

The Mask gimmick from him being dashing cody rhodes to a messed up physco because of the face injury, is one of the character development story lines that have disapeared from wrestling.

Rock is cool but he did more damage than good to wrestling, he bought in the pop crowd cool i am a fan of wrestling. He did promos with the intent to tell jokes and catch phrases, I am from the Jake the Snake promo school where you would legitly put the fear of god in the opponets ass and have the crowd in awe about how words and passion can be channeled into another human being to raise youself and put the other down so much so you where interested in the outcome.

Dusty Rhodes had great promos but kept that train of thought where you are interested in the outcome, Rock just cut promos to joke and yell catch phrases and gave birth to a bunch of wrestlers who do the exact same bullshit promos. No jake the snake, early austin promos ... Rock is cool and his on my list but dude is not nearly my favorite wrestler.

Watch the mid 80s stuff and early 90s stuff, thats when you build your personna cut your promos and was that super star.

Who the fuck wants to watch The Miz ? and The Rock is his favorite wrestler.

Everyone prefers the more talented CM Punk, and He never liked The Rock.

See my point ?

 

[DOPEdweebz]

Anyone (IMO) who DIDNT MAKE A LIST shouldnt be criticizing anyone elses list. Everyone wants to be a critic, but not critiqued themselves. On that note still working on mines.

I agree with the general consensus of most lists so there is really no big deal of me making a list jus to list the same names. I jus feel that Hulk Hogan gets tooooo much disrespect .

 

[hiphophova]

Hulk Hogan is a given, he dont need to be even mentioned he is loved by everyone.

Him and McDonalds, where neck and neck in the 80s with that Yellow and Red.

enough said.

WTF @ the bolded

if u dont like the rock fine...but to put him below cm punk and say his promos were just to tell jokes is absurd...as a matter of fact youre whole post is absurd...the crowd hung on to every word of the rock and the jake the snake promos were okay but now where near captavating....and smh @ "put fear of god in opponets" reallly?

wrestling is all about entertainment...and since the rock is easily the most entertaining on the mic u call him "pop".....and rhodes is a shitty wrestler...

ric flair promos >>> jake the snake
