If you were a retired wrestler...
 
Would you prefer to have been a guy on top, with multiple World Title reigns (a la Batista, Cena, etc).

Or a guy who was respected for their technical ability and/or promo skills but never got the chance to carry the belt (like Perfect, Piper, DiBiase).

money wise guy on top

legacy wise respected guy

Respected Athlete

Multiple title reigns, then I'd just lie and say I was the best in the ring. Who are they to question me I was the freakin' world champ.

abec 10-11-2009 09:23 AM

I would rather be a hulk hogan than a curt henning.

Fabien Barthez 10-11-2009 10:20 AM

I couldn't give a fuck how internet marks would perceve me. I want to be as rich as possible if I am going to devote my life into being a cartoon character.

Haze 10-11-2009 10:25 AM

Multiple reigns ala Flair

These.

Sixx 10-11-2009 11:32 AM

Rich. I would be too busy snorting coke of hookers' asses to care about the respect or lack of it I get over the internet.

Realistically, you do more for fans and the community as the "top dawg", unless you're a huge fucking prick.

Though I'd rather go respected athlete only because of my respect for the business as a whole and it's how I'd be.

DrCrawford 10-11-2009 12:02 PM

well considering, at least in the wwe, its not really about wrestling anymore as "entertainment"

i'd rather be a championship holder

Stickman 10-11-2009 01:04 PM

Championship. That's who makes the money and fame.

CSL 10-11-2009 01:27 PM

The titles/cash money. As long as I worked as hard as I could to be the best I could be, I couldn't give a fuck what anybody else thinks. To many wrestlers at every level get butthurt over the opinions of guys that have never 'tried it' themselves.

Rammsteinmad 10-11-2009 03:36 PM

I voted Championship Reigns, mostly due to money and other reasons stated in this post.

But realistically, I'm only 5'11 and I weigh about 11 stone (dunno what this is in lbs), so I'd never reach the level of world champion in any promotion, so I could happily retire knowing that I've earned the respect of everyone.

Where in the world do people weigh themselves with stones?

It's what people weigh themselves with in the UK. I wouldn't have a clue what my weight would be in lbs.

Here we use kilograms. And a pound is like 0.453 kg, but I'm not sure if you use kilograms in UK at all, so it probably won't help you.

Nicky Fives 10-11-2009 06:13 PM

reigns don't mean jack shit..... as long as I made a decent amount of money and everyone liked working with me and didn't have to many bad things to say about me, I'd be happy.

cenassoldier 10-12-2009 06:07 AM

Skippord 10-12-2009 06:27 AM
