I'm going with Black Reign. He puts in absolutely no effort what so ever. It even shows on him physically (He's getting pretty fat).

Ever? I gotta go Hogan. I'm not sure he's done anything to put forth an effort since 1987.

Right now? Eh, it's been a long time since Lance Hoyt looked like he gave a shit...matter of fact, I'm not sure I've ever seen him give a shit.

It certainly isn't Val Venis.

He may have had a flaccid career, but he certainly isn't the least-hardest.

Whow, stop saying Hogan just because you do not like him. Its a retarded awnser to give for this question. I am not going to even bother stating why you are wrong, since its as clear as the sun.

But umm Sid comes to mind. Just for the lack of caring.

Goldberg in the WWE looked like he was clocking in to be a janitor at a Vomitorium, the guy looked like he couldn't wait to leave.

I don't agree with the Hogan thing he looked like once he got his pay check he was going to bask in the glory of having thousands of people cheer him, and he tried his best to entertain them, fact is he just wasn't very good in the ring.

Stevie Richards. You don't have to work hard when you're invisible. Just set back and enjoy the cash.

I gotta go with the Hulkster too. Just based on what he actually did, for where he was. He should have been really really putting in decent matches. But there were a few punches, clotheslines and shit loads of shaking his head and waving fingers.

It still defies me how the man was as big as he is.

Hogan at least had long matches. I look at guys like Khali was have 4-5 minute matches and pretty mcuh do nothing.

Can't really think who might take the number one spot, but Goldberg in WWE does come to mind.Especially towards the end.

This has nothing to do with me not liking him, although because I view him as so lazy is one of the reasons I started to dislike him. I admitted in the "hardest worker" thread that despite my distaste for Cena, he busts his ass. Hogan never did. On top of being VERY lackadaisical, he never made house shows, he just didn't put forth a strong effort...as a performer.

Now, I have no doubt that it must be a 24/7 job to polotik at the level he has.

Just to be fair here, I'm going to admit that post-98 Nash didn't put forth a strong effort in much of anything. (eh, it seems like he's trying hard in TNA) And everyone here knows I worship the ground Nash walks on.

So please, since it's "clear as the sun," explain to me how Hogan gets to qualify as a hard worker.

Hogan man have never been a chain wrestling specialist by any means (apart from his match with Bret Hart of course) but that doesn't make him the least hardest worker. The guy literally carried WWE by himself in the 80's.

Probably Chris Jericho. Naw, jk. I would say it has to be Nash.

Hogan by a mile. The things he does out side the ring, yeah he works hard. But thats not what being a hard worker means. Using the wrestling definition its Hogan easy.

So who else carried the company in the 80's then??

The One

Andre, who despite what a lot of people have convinced themselves of was still a bigger world wide draw than Hogan clear up to Mania 3.

Piper, who without being the nasty heel he was would never have gotten Hogan over as such "The good guy."

Mr. T, who did more to make WrestleMania than Hogan did.

Randy Savage, who was not at the level that Hogan was, but he sure as shit carried his own weight.

George Steele, make some jokes about it if you wish, but the man was a stand alone attraction.

Jimmy Snuka, Iron Sheik, Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat, Honky Tonk Man, Ultimate Warrior, Hart Foundation, Rick Rude, Paul Orndorff, Junk Yard Dog, Big John Studd...

Yeah, no, Hogan carried the weight of the whole world on his shoulders. :roll:

Yeah, no, Hogan carried the weight of the whole world on his shoulders. :roll:

Oh come off it, the whole company was built around Hulk Hogan being the main star. Were there other great wrestlers in the company? Of course, but it was Hulk Hogan that was the main draw, it was Hulk that helped get the company advertisements, merchandise sales etc. He was the guy who led the company, he was the guy who risked his health when WWE were crossing into other territories.

Andre became a star before Hulk Hogan. Yes Andre was a huge star, and yes he did draw, but he was never THE number 1 guy in the company (and yes I do know he held the WWF Title for like 30 seconds, which was to enhance a storyline).

I'll admit Piper was a draw, and heck he probably helped draw Wrestlemania I as much as Hulk Hogan, but Piper's role at that time lasted about 3 yrs. he feuded with a lot of main event quality guys, but again he didn't carry the company.

Mr T didn't do more to make Wrestlemania than Hulk. He did enough to do what he needed to do, which was to get people not interested in wrestling to watch. Then again there were others at Wrestlemania I that helped gain people's interest, such as Liberac, Muhammed Ali, Cyndi Lauper etc.

George Steele... stand alone attraction yes. No more than that though.

Randy Savage did carry the company for a short period of time. Yes I do realise he held the title for a year, but the majority of the time they were building up the Savage - Hulk feud so he wasn't the main guy for long.

As for the others, most of them did draw a bit, but again it was Hulk carrying the company..

BTW Tovo, no doubt you believe Shawn Michaels carried WWE in 1996...

I read this and stopped. The whle company was built around Cena for some time as well, doesn't mean was the draw, just what marketing was going for. And your buying into the bullshit.

Come to think of it, there would be a good argument that Sgt Slaughter carried WWE for a bit in the 80's whilst Hulk Hogan was around as him and the tag champs at the time were billed as the main attractions at numerous house shows whilst Hogan would be drawing shows elsewhere. But you failed to pick up on that.

But Hulk Hogan did draw and the company grew significantly. How did that not happen??

Slaughter was huge, bigger than Hogan at a time.

But he didn't do it alone by any stretch of the imagination.

I don't think Slaughter was bigger than Hulk in WWE, but I personally think he was bigger pre 1984.

I personally think Hulk Hogan did carry the WWE in the 80's. Were there other great wrestlers around in WWE? Of course. Vince McMahon was smart in getting talent from other promotions and helped making shows like Saturday Night's Main Event and the PPVs enjoyable from top to bottom. I believe the comparison between Hulk and Cena is accurate in terms of marketing. Still doesn't mean that Hulk didn't significantly draw for WWE and that he was the main guy.

Destor
05-13-2008, 06:14 PM
Main guy, yeah. Carired it on his back? No one wrestler has ever done that, nor will they ever. It's a ridiculous notion, but to be honest I dont have the desire to argue on the Internet right now, so whatever. You can win this one.

Pardeep 619
05-13-2008, 06:20 PM
How about we agree to disagree? Maybe "carrying the company" on his back isn't quite the correct term, but he definately carried "the ball and ran with it" and had to carry the burden of the whole going into other territories and being the hated figure from other promotions etc.

I'm going with Black Reign. He puts in absolutely no effort what so ever. It even shows on him physically (He's getting pretty fat).

I gotta agree that he needs to at least get back to "Goldust" weight but I'm guessing TNA brought him back for the backstage help rather than his "wrestling ability" or "star power". I guess my pick would probibly be Hogan. He is a name, a marketing business. Can he wrestle? NO but he brings in fans and makes the company tons of money.

lol im half-n-half. HHH is a good worker, but is.the LAST person who needs to worry about job security. So he doesn't really have to work that hard.

El Fangel
05-15-2008, 02:57 AM
He does more work then most people in his position of power and job security, so that in itself gets him the nod as a hard work, and still wrestling after 2 quad tears.
