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

[The Pope]

DDP is the people's champ.

[Seth82]

def. gotta go with Rey Jr

His work in ECW and WCW was amazing for its time

[VSG]

Self high five

[Nicky Fives]

I can see this one being very close in the end..... I had to think about this one..... After careful deliberation, I went with DDP.....

[Supreme Olajuwon]

def. gotta go with Rey Jr

His work in ECW and WCW was amazing for its time

What does this even mean?

[TheHart]

Awwwww...who is that cute 12 year old above DDP? He's adorable!

Going with the Diamond Cutter!

[Wishbone]

went with Rey. DDP just never really did it for me I mean he was entertaining but I just never really got into him like I did Rey.

[Tazz Dan]

Yeah Rey for me here, although I did like the DDP character.

[Tazz Dan]

Also, I have no doubt Rey will lose whoever he faces in the HOF round which I believe is up next. Even if it's The Shockmaster, I can't see tpww letting him get through. :-\

[Aguakate]

With all due respect to my fellow forum members...Rey...and it's not even close.

[Emperor Smeat]

DDP even if he was badly misused in the WWE.

Both are good wrestlers and Rey might be more athletic due to his high-flying style but DDP had the better character.

He had a better finisher than Rey mostly because of how flexiable the Diamond Cutter can be in almost any spot. Ended up creating a lot of unpredictable endings and moments for his matches especially him countering Goldberg's Jackhammer and The Giant's chokeslam.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Diamond Cutter bang!

[Wolfpack423]

I'm a fan of Rey Mysterio, but I have to go with Diamond Dallas Page. I thought he was a complete package. He had a great character, good mic skills and decent in ring skills. I always thought he was one of the most underrated wrestlers. Too bad he didn't get a longer reign as champion, though felt he was one of the best United States champions.

[Skippord]

DDP

because I love him and he is amazing

[Rammsteinmad]

Tough round.

Went with Rey, but that was one tough choice.

DDP's career was pretty short to be honest, and whilst he did give us some great moments, Rey's career has been a damn lot longer, with even more awesome moments.

[whiteyford]

DDP. Loved his feud with Benoit and Raven over the US title, and he wrestled with cracked ribs for years:shifty:

[Ultra Mantis]

Both of these guys were gold during WCW's peak, but I preferred watching Mysterio.

[Aguakate]

[RiX1024]

Rey Mysterio has felt the BANG! my vote is for DDP.

[Nicky Fives]

If Page only stalked Sara, imagine what he would do to Michelle McCool....:naughty:

[Volare]

I just helped tie this bad boy up. I like DDP more than Mysterio just becuase he's done more in WCW and WWE. imo

[MoFo]

and I gave it back to Rey, because DDP is a pile of shit.

[DAMN iNATOR]

And the winner is...

<iframe title="YouTube video player" class="youtube-player" type="text/html" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/iK3RaIZLVtI" width="480" frameborder="0" height="390"></iframe>

Also, why is DDP "a pile of shit"? Because he worked his ass off to win his 3 world titles in WCW?

Weird/interesting/unrelated side note: Watched a rerun of the Bergeron Hollywood Squares yesterday and DDP and Kimberly were featured on that episode.

[Haze]

Had to go with DDP.

[Innovator]

How the fuck is this tied?

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I'm not sure, but if I had to guess, I'd say it's because the same # of people voted for each option.

[Jeritron]

Probably because a lot of people think it's Rey Mysterio's fault he was popular enough to be world champion

[Jeritron]

Weird/interesting/unrelated side note: Watched a rerun of the Bergeron Hollywood Squares yesterday and DDP and Kimberly were featured on that episode.

This is neither weird, interesting or unrelated

[Lock Jaw]

DDP is one of my favorite of all the times.

[MoFo]

Also, why is DDP "a pile of shit"? Because he worked his ass off to win his 3 world titles in WCW?



god DAMN INATOR ur so retarded.

No, not b/c he 'worked his ass off', he is not interesting at all. I was glad that Arquette won the World title, b/c it meant DDP didnt. People only mark for him because of inventing the RKO.

[MoFo]

also Rey has had like 5 billion more great matches than him.

[Aguakate]

also Rey has had like 5 billion more great matches than him.

I really can't believe this is close, let alone tied.

It boggles the mind.

Think of it this way: Can Rey have a good match against anyone and make them look good? Yes.

Can DDP have a good match against anyone and make them look good? No.

[jskinnyg]

That is a tough one... But in the end, BANG!.. Sorry DDP, Rey has had a pretty remarkable career Vs. the Diamond Cutter... This poll hurt me deeply...

[Innovator]

DDP worked his ass off buying a house next to Eric Bischoff.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Rey worked his ass off to profit from his friend dying.

[VSG]

A fucking draw, reminds me of ABT-Jeritron. Who will outsmart AAA this time? Tune in later...

[Beth Phoenix Fan]

DDP for Tie-breaker

[bigslimjj]

Mysterio vs. Malenko was better then anything DDP ever did. Goin with Rey Rey.

[Jeritron]

A fucking draw, reminds me of ABT-Jeritron. Who will outsmart AAA this time? Tune in later...

Me and ABT drew big money in KOTF and you may be able to see the rematch in the next round of TPWW 64

[VSG]

Well ABT is mostly mia these days, your chances look better than last time.
