This is a ridiculously good match, first of all. I'm gonna keep it real and vote for The Million Dollar Man because I want him in the HoF, but this is not to take anything away from the love I have for Rowdy Roddy. Piper is golden on the mic, a great brawler, great ring psychology, probably the best "mid-card for life" guy around. Not sure why Piper never made it to the next level.

He did. He was main event for years. You don't have to have the title to be a top tier guy. Same with Dibiase. Top guy, never got the gold. doesn't mean he was a mid-carder. They were both main event players.

PRE-WRESTLEMANIA 1-WRESTLEMANIA 2 don't count.

Dibiase is a mian eventer by that standerd though.

Both guys had brushes in the main spot but spent the bulk of their time not their. Ted had the Million Dollar Belt though and Piper wore a skirt. I think this will be an easy choice.

Fuck this is incredibly difficult... Both have impeccable charisma, mic skills and both have shown to be in the top three heels of all time... Its gonna have to go to Piper simply because of wrestling style and the fact he's from Winnipeg.

Damn you Destor for making me choose!! :mad:

I wish the draw option still existed. I'm not sure if I can vote in this.

Gonna have to go with Million Dollar Man*.











*This vote bought and paid for by Ted DiBiase

Going with Ted on this one. Hard choice, and to be honest, I based it off the fact that Dibiase left, and hasn't come back several times to tarnish his legacy and make other guys look bad.

Well an injury kinda kept him from doing that...

But Piper, he is and always will be the MAN. (alongside Flair of course)

I was thinking this too at first, in the end I tried to compare them both in their primes to come up with my choice, still incredibly difficult though.

Gonna give it to Piper seeing as he was a bigger draw opposite of Hogan. Thats really the only edge I can find for either guy and it isn't much of one.

6-6. This could be hot.

Did these two ever feud?

they are now

HOT

Damn. This is hard for me. I seriously don't know who to vote for!

Love both of these guys.

Edit: I think I'm gonna give the edge to Dibiase since he hung up the boots before he grew in his gut. I could've gone without seeing that Piper/Hogan feud a few years back in WWE.

I think we might have a big match on our hands.

Piper gets my vote due to seeing more of his work, if i had seen more of DiBiase though, im sure my vote would be different.

TL is a shining example of why it's good to come out of retirement.

Yeah, you then have more chance of winning the TPWW 'better wrestler' competition!

And who doesn't want that!

This is a good match up, Piper edged it for me.

"Rowdy" Roddy Piper.

As I said in the last Better Wrestler, it's not that I have anything against DiBiase, it's just that I never really took much interest in him at the time. Piper on the other hand I was well aware of and enjoyed some of his rivalries.

Unfortunately the bulk of my Piper memories is from WCW, and I don't think he did too much stuff of relevence there.

The most difficult match-up to date. I have to say as much as I love Piper, looking back I absolutely love the Million Dollar Man gimmick and I preferred to watch his matches rather than Piper's. Ted Dibiase was also IMO a better in ring technician. Fuck I really wish the draw option was still around...

no shit

Teddy gets my vote.... JUST

EDIT: Woah, 10-all

Roddy > Christian > Teddy

I can understand how most would vote DiBiase over Cage (I'm actually shocked at how close it was), but to vote him over Piper, are you fucking nuts? Plus I'm still butt hurt over Taz going over HHH. Honestly, I simply don't understand some of these voting trends. It's beyond perplexing to me. Better Wrestler is like my daily :wtf: moment.

Rowdy is fat.

I've tried on a number of occasions to concoct some reasoning to this. I can't. I've seen the majority of Piper's WWF and WCW bodies of work. I still don't get him. I don't get the supposed brilliance of his supposedly classic heel character. Honestly I always thought early 90s face, occasional commentator Piper was far more interesting. DiBiase took a gimmick that would have made a total joke of a lesser man and made it, well, gold. For the love of God-

-the man wore THAT BELT and not only made people take him seriously, but made people take feuds that revolved around it seriously! How on earth more people do not agree with me that the man is the greatest heel of the 80s and half the 90s, will elude me for the rest of my life.

Oh wait, I forgot, Piper hit Snuka with a coconut. You can't top that kind of action. :roll:

Hey Destor, if there's a tie, do the two guys each get a victory and then have to defend against a third guy in a Triple Threat? Or do we just give the win to whoever gets more Kliq votes?

In the event of a tie the champion retains and moves on but it doesn't count as a victory. The challenger will be allowed to challenge either the next champ or during the next vacancy. Which ever comes first.

There won't be a tie. Dibiase has this one.

Well it IS still 12 12.

*13-13

*13-14

GO PIPER!
