I'm listing this in terms of how much I enjoyed them at the time (some of which I was pretty young for), not really how talented they were/are. No real order either, although the first couple I list are probably the most prominent in my mind.

Stone Cold Steve Austin (Attitude Era)
Hulk Hogan (mid 80s)
Mr. Perfect (early 90s)
Shawn Michaels (mid 90s)
Ultimate Warrior (late 80s to early 90s)
Ted DiBiase (late 80s)
Randy Savage (mid 80s to early 90s)
Kurt Angle (now)
Sting (late 80s to mid 90s)
The Rock (about 98 to 2001)
Ric Flair (late 80s)
Terry Funk (late 80s)
Roddy Piper (mid 80s, early 90s)
Bret Hart (mid 80s to mid 90s)
Razor Ramon (mid 90s)
Diesel (I admit it, I liked him back in the day, and mid 90s)
Owen Hart (mid 90s to death)
Demolition (counting em as one, and for the whole time they were around as a team)
Rockers (I know I already listed HBK, but I'm still listing this as seprate; whole time they were around)
RVD (ECW days)

[xGuiltyFatex]

“Macho Man” Randy Savage- Props to this guy. He is the sole reason I watch wrestling. He was THE wrestler that got me hooked.

Hulk Hogan- Need I say anything about him that hasn’t been said 68003760984375093487679840357983065 times already? I think it was Lou Thez who said it best. “I had a grandmother, and she could throw a better leg drop.”

Mick Foley- Proof that someone with a splash of talent and an ocean of balls could make it.

“Nature Boy” Ric Flair- Over 30 years… Damn, just damn.

Bret “Hitman” Hart- I seriously think he prevented the WWF from sucking after Hogan left.

“Stone Cold” Steve Austin- And then he did the same when Bret Hart left.

“Nature Boy” Buddy Rogers- The FIRST WWF (CWC as it was known then) champion! The reason why the world title was even in dispute!

Andre The Giant- The 8th wonder of the world, the immoveable object… The WWF wouldn’t have been the same without him. Yeah, they had Hulk Hogan, but no one would care about Batman if he didn’t fight The Joker.

Sting- THE franchise of WCW. I don’t give a damn if this is WWE only, give the man credit where credit is due.

Rey Misterio JR- Another franchise wrestler in WCW, who helped refuel the cruiser weight division a number of times.

Freddie Blassie- Much love and respect to The Hollywood Fashion Plate! He was a wrestler who made people believe it was real!

The Iron Sheik- Much like Andre, the good guy needed someone to wrestle. Be it Bob Backlund, Hulk Hogan, or Sgt. Slaughter… One of the best Un-American wrestlers, ever.

Taz- With ONE z, thank you very much! One of the most impressive mat technicians ever, and THE best submission wrestler in ECW.

Vader- Feared by many, legitimately dangerous, hell of an entertainer in his prime. “But Always450, why Vader? Everyone is good in their prime?” Look at his size… You wanna name a more talented hoss who could pull off a moonsault?

The Undertaker- Much like Freddie Blassie, another wrestler who made you believe. He’s also a great example of why developing an on-screen persona is important. Look at his career… Easily hall of fame bound, he could be the top face or the top heel without changing his gimmick.

“The Heart Break Kid” Shawn Michaels- The show stopper, the head liner, the main eventer! The best all around performer in the bizz today… Hell, he’s the best there is, the best there was, the best there ever will be!

Ron Simmons- Okay, I know all of you are thinking “WTF!?!?!? Farrooq?” Listen, he paved the way for stars like The Rock, Booker T, Ahmed Johnson, D-Von, Shelton Benjamin, Mark Henry, and every other African American star by becoming the first ever African American WCW champion, crossing many color boundaries. Yeah, it is a little bit about race, but wrestlers like Ron Simmons made it more about talent.

Jerry “The King” Lawler- Hail to the king of announcing! The first entertaining announcer for a long period of time, who was allowed to be a pervert. He gets this slot reserved for an announcer above The Brain by the hair of the dogs… Or shall I say puppies…

The Legion Of Doom- 3 words… Best. Team. Ever!

New Jack- Once again, I don’t care if this is WWE only. This guy raised the bar for when people use a few words: Hardcore, Badass, Legitimate, Stiff, Pain, Cheese grater, Mean.

[Vastardikai]

Always450 raised the bar for mine, now I have to add commentary to the above posted list. Note: I am not voting again, I'm just offering explanations to the vote I place above.

Hulk Hogan: Like him or hate him, he was the gateway for every wrestling fan. Virtually everyone from my era was a Hulkamaniac at one point or another

Rock: Name a guy who can do a simple facial expression and elicit huge pops?

Chris Benoit: This guy has skills, plain and simple. He can pull a fantastic match out of anyone.

Rick Steamboat: Fire breathing nonsense aside, this guy could work a fantastic match with almost anyone. Steamboat/Savage, as a case in point.

Ric Flair: If I really have to explain this one, you are out of the loop. Go buy the DVD.

Steve Austin: Sometimes a wrestler needs to relate to his fanbase. Name how people you know who drinks beer, and hates their boss?

Jake Roberts: This guy, in his prime, was an Anti-Hero: so badass he ruled.

Owen Hart: He should have had a World Title Run, Plain and simple. Long live the Rocket. Woooo!

Bret Hart: He was over simply by being the Anti-Hogan: Defending the title against anyone and everyone, not wrestling 10 times a year, if that. And defending the title 3 times.

Mick Foley: He wasn't the best technical wrestler, or even the best looking. He was kind of like your uncle, if he suffered 12 concussions and a ripped off ear.

Y2J: This guy had the most spectacular debut, with the personality, charisma, and ability to pull it off.

Shawn Micheals: Nobody can electrify a crowd like this man. And nobody can fake an injury to keep from putting someone else over like him, either. But, I respect his ability.

Undertaker: The best and longest running gimmick in wrestling history.

Ted Dibiase: The best heel in the mid-late '80s. He never got his due because he wasn't a monster, and because of the Honky Tonk Man.

Randy Savage: He may have been Bonesaw, the Rapping Slim Jim salesman, but this guy had ability. He also had the amazing ability of talking to sound like he was constipated. This guy had charisma. If Hogan was number one, this guy was number 2 in drawing fans.

Andre the Giant: This guy was the biggest name in pro-wrestling, both in stature and in fame. One could sell out a crowd simply by announcing that he's going to be there.

Mr. Perfect: Another Underrated Great. This guy had the persona, the charisma, and the ability to make you buy any match he was in. He had an amazing series with Doink the Clown, as well as his epics with Bret and Kerry Von Erich.

Rick Rude: Great character, ahead of his time. Rick should have been able to do more than he did. He'll be missed.

Roddy Piper: Greatest wrestler NEVER to hold the WWF/E Championship. He was the most believable heel in a long time. Another Anti-Hero, of sorts. In addition, he was funny as hell as a commentator.

Kurt Angle: By and large, one of the best wrestlers to come onto the scene in the past 10 years. It wasn't always easy, but this guy has become the new prototype for new wrestlers for years to come.
