I really am not a fan of this whole Wrestler Vs Entertainer crap

Fact is, Shawn can ‘Rassle’ and it’s been proven on many occasions in the past, but he did more than that, and got over with it.

Shawn’s biggest problem was, imo his size and the fact that, at the time of his first title run, he was more like Cena, the adult male fans turned on him, so he never really got to run with the ball more often, that is what would hold him back from being the greatest of all time.

To be the greatest of all time, what do you actually need? For me, I feel it’s simple.

You have to be over, aka, make money, aka, be a draw.

Like it or not, Hogan was/is still a massive draw, I don’t think that WWE right now has anyone that is considered a draw, because the product itself is a draw. Yes the WWF product was a draw, but Hogan was clearly the main attraction, when they tried to re-create new stars in the form of Hellwig, they always went back to Hogan. Look what happened when he left for WCW, business tanked for like 5 years.

So, for me, aside from all his political bullshit he is for me the greatest ever.

Is shawn fucking amazing? Yes, or course he is, and is up there as one of the greatest of all time, the only thing he didn’t do well is draw.

On another subject, I would like to see him get another run with the title before his retirement
