Better Year? Warrior in 1990? Goldberg in 1998? or Lesnar in 2002?

I saw Warrior and Lesnar being WWE for life. Wrestlemania 6 was the 3rd PPV i ever saw. Survivor Series 89, Royal Rumble 1990 and then WM 6, Warrior was my favourite and if he didn't win i never would have liked wrestling but he did. The only i didn't love about Lesnar is he never fought the nWo and he went over R.V.D
 
Lesner is being seriously under rated so far. He came in and won the King of the Ring, goes on to beat The Rock clean. Then he goes into a feud with The Undertaker and beats him in a HIAC match. In between those to he took out Hulk Hogan. He did trail off a bit after he swapped the title with The Big Show and lost Heyman, but he picked back up again later. I will say one thing he had in his favor though was he beat The Rock when he was going out and same with Hogan I believe. Warrior simply caught fire in 88 when he beat Honky Tonk Man. I was a little young when he started, but it seemed like Warrior had so few memorable feuds. In 1990 he really only beat Hogan, then had another nice feud with Rick Rude then lost the belt to Slaughter. Tough to compare though because Warrior had less outlets to been seen in 1990. The win over Hogan was absolutely epic of course. Goldberg started slow at first, but once the wins started mounting he wasn't to be stopped. Like another poster said, he became a household name in less than a year. Even though Hogan wasn't in his prime it was still tough to get over him clean and Goldberg did that in quite an epic environment. Also consider Lesner was a heel, and started bringing people to his side just from his sheer dominance. I am going to be in the minority, but imo it is Lesner.
I agree, i too pick Lesnar. In addition to what you mentioned he also won the royal rumble and headlined the main event of WM19 against Kurt Angle in which was a great match. i feel as though if he didnt hate the business as much he could have really been a major player by now. hell he could even be retired since it would have made 11 years. while the other 2 selections were good im going with Lesnar on this one.
