Do you have one absolutely favorite wrestler?
 
Posted in another thread about how I don't really have one absolutely favorite wrestler, and when I think about it, I really don't. I love guys for different reasons. Austin for his hellraising, Michaels for his in-ring work, Danielson for his pure wrestling ability, Punk for his mic work and the fact that he "gets it", Taker for his aura and overall character progression, Foley for his psychology, Lesnar for his dominance/bad ass-ness, Angle for his ability to pull off a true "total package". Among others, of course.

I'd find it hard to pick just ONE guy that I could point to and say "yeah, he's my absolute favorite of all time".

Do you have one absolutely favorite wrestler, either currently or all-time?

He's like the mayor of Peepington.

I think you can figure out mine

Christian.

I KNOW that there are wrestlers out there who are better than him (Angle, HBK, etc.), and that I would pick over him in a "Better Wrestler" poll.... but you ask me this question and I say Christian.

Why? I'm not so sure. It just is.

Chris Jericho.

I've never found myself disliking anything that's he done in the ring, said on the mic and even worn. Ever.

Though I did like Edge alot between WrestleMania 21 and The Bash 2009. His return as a face turned me off from him a bit and I didn't like him as much as I once did. But I still like him. I'm glad that his current run as a face is being done properly this time and it's not highly annoying like his feud with Jericho was.

But back on topic, I'd say Chris Jericho is my all time favourite wrestler.

MoFo 10-29-2010 03:48 PM

Warrior and Rick Rude.

dronepool 10-29-2010 04:15 PM

Character wise? Stone Cold or Undertaker. Other than that I'm not die hard enough to really have an all out fave.

ron the dial 10-29-2010 04:16 PM

mick foley. sure there are things that other wrestlers do better and i enjoy them immensely for, but nobody tops mick foley for me. i can't quite explain it.

whiteyford 10-29-2010 04:22 PM

Raven

Jordan 10-29-2010 04:29 PM

Shawn

Furious Beardsley 10-29-2010 04:31 PM

My all time favorite is a toss up between Stone Cold and Tommy Dreamer

jskinnyg 10-29-2010 04:39 PM

I used to say Flair... But not after the TNA w/ Hogan matches & shit... Now I say this guy... And he'll be back soon!

Xero, this is one "time" that I can say exactly who my favorite is

He's big, stong, mean, more agile than men half his size, and use to scare the crap out of me as a kid seeing him in WCW with the mammoth helmet

The Show Off 10-29-2010 05:39 PM

Brian Pillman always has and always will be my one favorite wrestler of all time.

Triple Naitch 10-29-2010 05:41 PM

I have four. The Rock, Shawn Michaels, Chris Jericho, and CM Punk. Don't make me choose.

Cool King 10-29-2010 05:47 PM

I actually liked him.

Eklipse 10-29-2010 05:50 PM

'Taker without a doubt.

Tazz Dan 10-29-2010 05:58 PM

Edge

Nicky Fives 10-29-2010 06:01 PM

I have 5 (Bret, Hall, Perfect & Rude as the others)... but Owen Hart is my fave of all-time.....

Between Undertaker and Edge.

Before Jericho it was Stone Cold and The Rock since their feud over the Intercontinetal title. Block WWF logo era, I liked a lot of wrestlers so hard to just pick one.

For tag teams, The Dudleys in ECW, APA in WWF/WWE, and the Bushwackers in late 1980s-early 1990s.

The Naitch 10-29-2010 07:43 PM

past, and all-time favorite- The Rock
present, and currently active- CM Punk/Rey Mysterio

Skippord 10-29-2010 07:52 PM

Edge

stultiloquy 10-29-2010 08:20 PM

Undertaker - regardless of how much I hated the 'American Badass' gimmick, I still have to give it to 'taker.

Dante69 10-29-2010 08:25 PM

Sting,Vader,Flair,Hogan and Bret Hart

Jura 10-29-2010 08:27 PM

Growing up it was Sting and Bret and then The Rock. No wrestler since The Rock has captivated me though.

DLVH84 10-29-2010 08:43 PM

I don't think I can pick just one.

El Fangel 10-29-2010 08:58 PM

The Rock

Reason I started watching in the first place and stopped caring after he left.

Joey Slugs 10-29-2010 09:57 PM

Growing up? Flair. Hands down.

Current? Punk. But I'm biased...

DaVe 10-29-2010 11:10 PM

Undertaker

It's impossible to be able to say ONLY THIS GUY IS MY FAVORITE, almost impossible, because of all the factors that go into having a favorite wrestler. The closest choice to ALL TIME BEST/FAVORITE would no doubt be Shawn Michaels, as he could talk, wrestle, entertain, etc. He's probably the best ever.

Bret Hart is the man I got into wrestling for.
The Rock and Jericho are the men that I watched wrestling for for ten years.
The Miz is the reason I still watch today.

So one of those four I suppose. At the moment I have to say The Rock, but given 5 years it will likely be The Miz.

Stone Cold! Hands down. Was the end-all-be-all of attitude and wrestling!

Thunder Savage Go 10-30-2010 04:34 AM

Shadrick 10-30-2010 06:14 AM

The Rock.

Evil Vito 10-30-2010 11:54 AM

<font color=goldenrod>Chris Jericho. Guy has been my definitive favorite since like 2001 or so.</font>

Ultra Mantis 10-30-2010 12:17 PM

Jericho easily, he's been consistantly entertaining and I've never got bored of watching him.

The Naitch 10-30-2010 07:52 PM

I'm gonna have to say Edge is up there as my current/active favorite wrestlers (tied with my choices of Punk and Rey

Ever since Edge cut his hair back in 2005, he became main event status

glanville6 10-31-2010 02:22 PM

Christian. Really hope he gets a strong push when he comes back.

Jeritron 11-01-2010 01:18 PM

Mine is Chris Jericho. Even though I think Shawn Michaels is the greatest performer ever, and Stone Cold is the greatest superstar/champion ever, etc.
Jericho is just my favorite. I think it might be because of how well rounded I feel he is. He may not be the best ever in any one category but he's high on the list for all of them, which makes him a candidate for being the best all around. That and he's been my favorite for a very long time, so a lot of good nostalgia comes with it.

Shawn, Stone Cold, Foley, CM Punk, Taker and a handful of others round out my Top 5-10, but Jericho is definitely my alltime favorite by far.

Slow 11-01-2010 05:10 PM

Childhood years = The Mountie

Teen years = Kevin Nash

The good old days = Edge

Old man years = CM Punk

Looking back at everyone I've watched over the years... Raven. On the rare occasion his music hits I still mark out like a schoolgirl with a puppy, (?) and the guy is just the business

Anybody Thrilla 11-02-2010 01:56 PM

For a very long time, the answer was Bret Hart for me. Now, I'd say it's Chris Jericho. Ever since he turned heel in WCW as cruiserweight, I've been hooked on pretty much everything he's done. Huge mark.

Sepholio 11-02-2010 02:05 PM

lol I love Kevin Nash even more now. He made a post on his twitter about how Vince needs to let him in the Rumble; if Nash wins, he wants Taker at Mania, and if he loses, he joins the kiss-my-ass club the following night on RAW. Gotta love it.

Are you Daniel Tosh?

ministrychick77 11-07-2010 06:18 PM

undertaker. also possibly edge, jericho, and miz.

Seth82 11-07-2010 07:25 PM

probably Ric Flair

Kerry Von Erich in a distant 2nd place

as for tag teams it would probably be Gino Hernandez and Chris Adams

James Steele 11-07-2010 11:59 PM

Yes.

3 guesses...
