Better Wrestler All Time Records (http://tpww.net/forums/showthread.php?t=102087)

[DLVH84]

Pegasus Kid all the way.

[Wolfpack423]

Benoit is one of the best wrestlers of all time. I do have to give you props for a good match-up as Saturn was good during his earlier days in ECW and WCW. You should have done Benoit vs. Malenko. I would have still voted for Benoit, but that would have been the best match-up.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Malenko is not eligible, but thank you for your critique.

[Razzamajazz]

i swear i saw saturn at a walmart a few months ago. although it could have been any fat bald guy in a hoody

[Juan]

I loved me some Saturn in ECW and WCW, but I think Benoit's overall body of work was superior.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Wait is the whole Saturn is missing thing still going?

Didn't the picture get posted here?

[bigslimjj]

Murder of a woman and child trumps everything,no matter how many germans you can do in a row.That's from the last one. Can we have one of these without a murderer please?

[Juan]

I'm gonna take a drink every time the word "murder" is used while Benoit is still in this thing.

[VSG]

Malenko is not eligible, but thank you for your critique.

Why is he ineligible?

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Because after a wrestler loses a round he must wait 50 rounds before becoming eligible again. Malenko lost to Bret Hart in round #163.

[VSG]

You might want to consider reducing that limit as more and more people enter the HoF. But I see your point, fair enough for now.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

You might want to consider euthanasia.

[VSG]

So why don't we just skip to the end where I call you Faggot Supreme and you "ignore" me?

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Because you need to grow up.

[VSG]

R-i-g-h-t.

[Wolfpack423]

I'm gonna take a drink every time the word "murder" is used while Benoit is still in this thing.

Careful you'll be hungover til Sunday haha.

[XCaliber]

Can't vote for Saturn to me he was never that good compared to Benoit.

[Kapoutman]

In WCW, Saturn used to be one of my favorite wrestlers. I just loved the way his moves looked brutal. The Death Valley Driver, the Rings of Saturn, the superkick, even his top rope splash looked like it had more impact than usual. Loved the guy.

[Furious Beardsley]

I like(d) both men as performers, but I find Benoit to be the superior wrestler here. He was just awesome.


WTF is that thing on Saturn's face? It looks like a giant parasite. And he appears to have put on just a couple of pounds.

[Skippord]

I kind of want to vote for Saturn just based on that shirt

[Nicky Fives]

Goodbye Moppy :'(

[Rammsteinmad]

Benoit.

Saturn was awesome all the way up to his WWE departure. Mostly in ECW and WCW, but in WWE you just knew he wouldn't get anywhere.

[RiX1024]

Chris Benoit....you're welcome.

[The Pope]

Where's Goldust's wife?

[DarKCentaur]

http://wrestlingtruth.com/wrestlehost/images/c77yk7x6s6tbktmqujv5.jpg

He looks like a Sultan in this pic

[jskinnyg]

Even with Pepe in the woodchipper, gotta go with the Pegasus Kid!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

The one who modeled his life, movelist and career after the Dynamite Kid.
:foc:

[AfterShock8706]

No offense to Perry Saturn but Benoit has got him beat by a country mile

[jskinnyg]

And country miles are not to be taken lightly kids...

[Lock Jaw]

Saturn got shot in the neck three times while trying to stop a rape. He then no sold the bullets long enough to succeed in stopping it, and await an ambulance.

[MoFo]

Saturn, I enjoyed him more.

[The Pope]

So here is where WWE got the Chris Jericho thing:

[Seth82]

I liked Perry better as one half of The Eliminators in ECW

will definitely go with Benoit in this round

[YoungFlyFlashy]

I still can't believe people voted The Rock 30 to HBK's 28.

[wrestlingfan98]

I don't care what ANYBODY says, Saturn was talented but, at the end of the day, I'd put my money on the late, great, "Rabid Wolverine." I know I may face some imflammatory comments other wrestling fans but quite frankly, I don't give a damn. Why people remember him as a just guy who killed his family I'll never know; in my opinion, he should be remembered for what he did in the ring instead of what happened in his personal life. Whether he was known as "The Canadian Crippler," "The Rabid Wolverine," "Pegasus Kid", or whatever you wanted to call him, there was only one Chris Benoit and after him, there will NEVER be another like him.
RIP,
Chris
