SHALL WE BEGIN?
I know this has probably been done to death, but fuck it, no matter how many times its done, itll be a battle ground. And a place for Slyfox to make hilarious posts.
List who you feel are the top 5 wrestlers EVER. This is not a personal preference list. Make an unbiased, intelligent opinion on who the top five pro wrestlers of all time were, combining all facets of pro wrestling, that being in ring work, promo ability, and drawing power. Dont be a moron and just post a list, give reasons, or I will be SWIFT with the infractions on this. Thanks guys.
1. Hulk Hogan
Not really much I can say that hasnt already been said. The BIGGEST draw of all time, both as a heel and face, drew the biggest crowd of all time, and, along with Chuck Norris, is the ordained protector of our planet. Well not really on the last one, but thats how it would go. Very underrated as a promo guy and in ring worker, were contrary to what many super cool intelligent folks would tell you, he is one of the absolute best EVER.
2. Stone Cold Steve Austin
I was embattled figuring out which of Austin, and my number three would be placed. But for what Austin's ring work lacked, was made up for by insane promo work and drawing ability. Provided week in and week out entertainment, wether it be in the ring, or just about any other damn place you could think of, wether it be in the backs of ambulances, or at someones house LOL. One half of what was probably the best rivalry of all time, with Vince, and one of the top 5 feuds of all time, with Bret Hart.
3. Bret Hitman Hart
For my money, the best in ring worker of all time. Incredible seller, excellent delivery of offense, never a botch. If Bret Hart was on the card, you were going to get at least one good match. I can honestly say, ive NEVER seen a bad Bret Hart match. EVER. He is VERY underrated on his promo work, and the only reason he is under Austin was becuase Austin was a much better draw (which im sure Sly will come along and somehow make what I just said wrong...)
4. The Undertaker
Its almost impossible for me to state just how damn good this guy is. For someone his size, to do all he does, defies logic. Amazing phsycology, great promos, Great seller, hreat giver of offense. He may not be a huge peak draw, but fans are NEVER disinterested in The UNdertaker. We are talking about a guy who has been receiving the top 2 pops of the night for over 20 years now.
5. Kurt Angle
The only reason he is so low, is becuase he isnt a good draw. On a promo and ring work scale, he is almost unparalled. Hilarious as a comedy heel, belivable as an evil heel, awesome as an intense face. One of the best in ring workers ever, becuase, as I said about Hart, I have NEVER seen a bad Kurt Angle match. Although I dont watch TNA, so it couldve very well happened lol.
