WWE.com Countdown: Masked Marvels

10. Sin Cara 9. Psicosis 8. Vader 7. Tiger Mask 6. Jushin Liger 5. Mankind 4. Ultimo Dragon 3. Kane 2. Mil Mascaras 1. Rey Mysterio Agree? Disagree? Additions/Subtractions? Personally, I agree with Rey being number 1. Dunno about Mankind and Kane being on the list due to them wrestling for a long time without their masks. |
It's kinda hard for me to think of anybody else that deserves the list other than old timers, Mr. Wrestling or Mr. Wrestling 2?
|
Where is the Blue Blazer? He was awesome.
|
Mil Mascaras is shitttttt
|
No La Parka = INVALID LIST

WHY IS CM PUNK NOT ON THIS FUCKING LIST.
|
I can get them putting Rey as number one since he's one of the top babyfaces of the company, but Mankind and Kane? For god's sake Kane has spent more time without the mask than with it! Forshame WWE!
|

Don't get why this is such a big deal for some of you. Kane is one of the greatest big wrestlers ever. He wrestled for a long time with a mask on. Seems to make a lot of sense to me. I dunno. Maybe I'm just old fashioned.

Damn.

Only a troll would point out that Kane had success when he wore a mask. Too fucking true, man.

And also... http://www.fuegoenelring.com/wrestle...es/VILLANO.jpg All five Villano's should have a spot on this list. |
I had a seriously hard time believing that the Villanos were under the cruiserweight weight limit in WCW. They were so fat.

In all seriousness, that is a good overall list! |
Who?
|
True, but neither was Oklahoma, and he was cruiserweight champ!
|
What, no El Generico??? [/indymark]
Honestly though, it's a good list. I would swap places between Kane and Liger, but that's just me. |
A lot about this list bugs me:
First - Is this a list complied solely of masked men who were at one time affiliated with the WWE? I'm assuming it is because of the absence of such competitors as Hayabusa or Dr. Wagner. Second - If that be the case, then when were Tiger Mask and Liger ever apart of WWE? I don't recall that moment happening. Third - Are the names listed in random order or is it really #10 to #1? If it's the latter, than I feel it's incorrect. Not to put down Rey in any form, as he is a legend in his own right, but I just can't agree with him being better than Tiger or Liger. On that notion, which Tiger Mask are they referring to? The original? (Sorry if it's clarified on the site, too lazy to go visit it). And finally, I agree, no mention of La Parka (L.A. Park, not the new one) is a damn shame, and Kane and Mankind shouldn't be listed, unless of course my original assumption is correct which then makes more sense for them to be included. Sorry for the bit of ranting on my part. I admit I'm a little bias in favor of certain wrestler over others, but the list just rubbed me the wrong way. |
Lol at Sin Cara being thrown in there at the end. :roll:
|
|
For a WWE created list its not as bad it could be, Sin Cara maybe shouldnt be there but i see why.

And it's a WWE-centric list. All WWE lists are. SOMETIMES they throw in someone who has nothing to do with WWE (and by WWE, I mean WWE and every promotion they currently own footage to), but it's rare. If you go into anything WWE-produced thinking it's going to be objective, you're a little on the uneducated side when it comes to WWE as a company. |

I would have had Vader as my number one but for what he did in WWE that spot is fairly generous I suppose.
|
Pretty strong list.
It also shows the attitude of the WWE towards masks in wrestling as a 'niche' thing. Personally, I love the idea of masks and think they bring more to a character than the WWE would have themselves believe. |

Sin Cara should IN NOW WAY be in a "10 greatest masked wrestlers list" yet...
...once I read his name at #10, the list lost all credibility. |
Shouldn't the fact that it's a WWE compiled list posted on wwe.com mean it had no credibility to begin with?
