Canadian Wrestlers
 

Do any of you like canadian wrestlers? :wave:

Not specifically.

Do any of you like American wrestlers? :shifty:

Nah, they all talk funny.

Duh yes. Canadian wrestlers simply fucking own. On a relative basis, they pump out the best talent going.

yes i agree they do

Now if only we could do the same with soccer players.

The women soccer players are pretty good. But I guess that doesn't really matter much.

What's a "Canadian"?

Bret "The Hitman" Hart...............Nuff said

Just like the WNBA.

Over the last two decades, Canada has become the "breeding ground" for wrestlers. It's sort of what Minnesota and the Carolinas were in the '70s and '80s.

At the moment, a lot of my favorite wrestlers are Canadian: Benoit, Jericho, Team Canada, Christian, Lance Storm (even though he's not really wrestling atm), etc.

Something about Canada (*cough*StuHart*cough*) is producing a hell of a lot of skilled workers.

I prefer the British

Nope, my favorite is a New Yorker by the name of Chris Jericho.... :shifty:

My favourites are Team Canada in TNA, Bret Hart, Owen Hart & Brian Pillman (RIP went way too soon)

Pillman's not Canadian, is he? He was Hart Foundation, so brought into that whole Canadian vs. American thing they did, but only by association (atleast I thought so)... same goes for Neidhart and Bulldog.

Out of curiosity, who do we have?

Bret Hart
Owen Hart
Teddy Hart
Edge
Christian
Test
Val Venis
Chris Benoit
Chris Jericho
Lance Storm
Trish Stratus
Gail Kim
René Duprée
Sylvain Grenier
Team Canada

I feel like I'm missing countless people, especially the older guys...

Pillman is from cincinatti ohio, but trained in the dungeon in calgary, after playing for the stampeders of the CFL. He's like a brother to Bruce and Owen basically.

The big guy Kurrgan of the truth commission is canadian. So is earthquake. Dino Bravo, rick martel, the rougeau's..bad news allen...at least he trains up there and lives there in calgary. Phil Lafon.Neidhart and Bulldog lived in Calgary..Neidhart is from reno nevada though. The Jackal is canadian. The Rock's father worked up in stampede. Which is why the rock was close to owen and Bret helped him out alot. Piper grew up in Canada and is a Hart cousin.

I can't believe no one's mentioned Killer Kowalski.

Isn't Roddy Piper Canadian too?

Where in Canada is Piper from?

I heard Edge is pretty Canadian.

I'm not totally sure, but in his book he states that he moved around very often. He was in saskatchewan, Toronto, alberta...maybe someone else might be able to be more definitive. Piper that is.

Yea don't forget aboot Jack Evans as well. Not technical based like most other Canadian wrestlers but he was still stretched in the dungeon. :y:

Storm :heart:

Chris was born in Canada but he now calls him self a new yorker

A canadian is someone from canada. :y: :y: :y: :y:

I think I heard somewhere that he was actually born in Manhasset, and moved to Canada because his dad (who played NHL) when to play up North. Not sure how accurate that is, though.

Gee, I never would have guessed. :roll:

It's true. Jericho was born in New York because his father was playing for the New York Rangers at the time. He went up to Canada eventually, though. Maybe right away.

A superior form of life. :D

lol...what a question. :nono:

Does anybody like free sex?

TJ Wilson

Mitch have you heard that Blitzkrieg is turning his identity over to Jack Evans in December?

I am quite partial to it actually :yes:

Really? Haven't heard that. I know he met Blitzkrieg recently. I guess it would make sense as Blitztkrieg is out of wrestling and Evans idolizes him.

There's also this awesome masked cruiserweight from Hamilton, Ontario who goes by the name Snapdragon. :shifty:

I think it goes to show how big wrestling is in Canada. I mean just compared ot the Staes, we are roughly 10% of the population, but we definately have pumped out more than 10% of the greatest wrestlers.

So yeah, we rule!

BTW, I'm pretty sure Angle is really CDN and Test is really an American.

yuppers. Jericho was born in New York City but raised in Winnipeg
