Where do the best wrestlers come from?
 
What parts of the world have produced the best wrestlers, in your opinion?

Alberta, Canada comes to mind with the Harts, Lance Storm, Benoit, etc.
Quebec also has a good crop with Ron Garvin, Rick Martel, Ivan Koloff, the Rougeaus, Pat Patterson, and a bunch more

But I think my answer for the best is probably Minnesota which features the Gagnes, the Andersons, the Hennigs, Jesse Ventura, Rick Rude, the Road Warriors, and a bunch of others.

But enough about me, let's talk about you

Mike Honcho 07-06-2010 08:41 AM

Definitely Texas, and ya JBL is Texan however he may want to deny it :lol:

Its also where most wrestler like to reside: Torrie Wilson, Rikishi, Umaga (RIP), Mark Henry, Dustin Rhodes etc.

I saw Adam Evans at the start and stopped reading. But in all honesty, is it fair to see just where the wrestlers were born? There is so much foreign talent that are now US citizens. Ditto with the separate states if you are only into the USA right now.

Well I'm just going by where they're born because its easiest and people can be "from" a lot of places but they can only be born in one.

But I get your point Jim Ross is part and parsel with Oklahoma yet born in California and Jericho was raised in Canada but born in New York... I just have to be fair over all and only go by where someone is born.

Oops, you got me there. Funnily though, he was born and raised in Austin, TX.

Majunior 07-06-2010 12:33 PM

Going with Canada. Calgary, to be exact.

I know a lot of people will go with Texas, but IMO a lot of the talent from Texas doesn't impress me much. Yeah, I said it... not a big fan of Taker, JBL, or HBK.

Rammsteinmad 07-06-2010 12:37 PM

I'd go with Canada.

Chris Benoit, Chris Jericho, Edge, Christian, Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Lance Storm, El Generico, Petey Williams, Trish Stratus :drool: and Natalya Neidhart :drool:

RiX1024 07-06-2010 12:41 PM

What about Stone Cold Steve Austin haha? I agree with Texas and Canada in general because we have The Harts, Benoit, Jericho, Edge, Christian, Lance Storm, Trish Stratus, Maryse etc. Basically everyone except Sylvan Grenier and The Mountie well that's my opinion I just never liked the Mountie.

Texas has a plethora of great talents, Austin, HBK, Taker, JBL, Booker T

California has my favorite of all time Sting haha.

RiX1024 07-06-2010 12:49 PM
