this rounds over...Bret 4-1 right?

good idea...finish off the first round tomorrow and then do a round a day maybe.

 

[scalizi]

HHH (feuds with Rock and others were great)
Honkey Tonk Man...(great heel,longest reign,some great feuds)
Warrior (continued the momentum of the honky tonk era)
Owen Hart (owen...nuff said)
Shawn Michaels (tough one vs. Savage, but Michaels may have had one of the mostt memorable reigns)
Razor Ramon (ladders!!)
Ken Patera (salute one of the first real tough guys...I thought he was great in his day)

RVD, Kurt Angle, Edge, Pedro Morales, and Jericho were easy for me. i hate HHH, Angle would kill the Rock and roll man Honky, Edge is crazy with wrestling ability but the warrior is just insane with no wrestling ability, i hate michaels and i like savage but HBK carried the title for a while and gave it much respect. Morales was great in the past i seen his matches. between pantera and jericho would have to give it to the Lionhart

Michaels gets it over Savage for me

the last one is a killer, GREAT MATCH
my two all time favs Benoit and Owen. WOW, as i type i don't even know who gets it, i say Owen wins it in a close one with his foot on the rope for leverage or a pull of the tights.

 

[wotdoiput]

I would have to go with Triple H , Honky Tonk Man, Edge, Razor Ramon, ummm errr Owen Hart do do enough to beat Benoit and HBK to do the same to beat Savagew and Y2J.... damn some tough matchups in this tournament.

[Jaycobo]

RVD
Honky Tonk man (obviously)
Ultimate warrior
Owen Hart
Macho Man Randy savage (one of my favorite wrestlers)
Razor Ramon (nostalgia is taking over me)
Jericho (I have no clue who patera is)

 

[The Chocolate Monkey]

Triple H vs. Rob Van Dam = HHH
Kurt Angle vs. Honky Tonk Man = Honkey tonk cos this is ICchamp not HW
Edge vs. The Ultimate Warrior = Ultimate Warrior
Chris Benoit vs. Owen Hart = Owen Hart
"Macho Man" Randy Savage vs. "The Heart Break Kid" Shawn Michaels= HBK
Razor Ramon vs. Pedro Morales = Razor
Chris Jericho vs. Ken Patera = Jericho

so HHH, Honkey tonk man, Ultimate Warrior, Owen Hart, HBK, Razor Ramon & Chris Jericho

 

[pardonme73]

Triple H vs. Rob Van Dam = HHH hands down

Kurt Angle vs. Honky Tonk Man = As much as I love (And Will Miss!!!!) the Wrestling Machine...I have to give it to the Honkey Tonk Man

Edge vs. The Ultimate Warrior = This is a no brainer...Ultimate Warrior was the only one in IC history to win the WWE Heavyweight Championship while holding the IC belt

Chris Benoit vs. Owen Hart = This is a really tough battle...I would have to say Benoit because he was far more versatile...and the one match that will always pop back up in my head when I think of Benoit was the Wrestlemania Match between Benoit & Angle.

"Macho Man" Randy Savage vs. "The Heart Break Kid" Shawn Michaels = Who could ever forget the famous IC Belt showdown at Wrestlemania between Macho Man & Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat?

Razor Ramon vs. Pedro Morales = Two Words...Ladder Match

Chris Jericho vs. Ken Patera = No brainer again...Jericho holds the record for most IC title reigns...we'll forgive the fact his sixth reign was the shortest in IC history (I think it was about 10 minutes)

So here are the winners = HHH, Honky Tonk Man, Ultimate Warrior, Chris Benoit, Macho Man Randy Savage, Razor Ramon, Chris Jericho

I dont think we're supposed to vote yet are we?

 

[sledge450]

HHH
Kurt Angle (honky may be the longest, but also the most pointless)
Warrior (made the title sinificant, in the title vs title match with hogan)
Owen (Tie of the round)
Randy Savage (Closet tie of the round, Randy just carried the belt better)
Razor Ramon ( i agree, best ic title match in history - the ladder match)
Y2J
