There has to be some kind of formula. Years of service? Title runs? Lack of major title runs(Curt Hennig, Ricky Steamboat)? Loyalty?
The Rock is tough...8 years in the WWE- but really not much in 2003 and the one match in 2004 at WM 20. Legend? Eh, I don't know. I like him a lot, I'd put him as an all time great, but calling him a legend is kind of pushing it.
Goldberg, no he is not a legend. But, as someone said, based on his streak, he is legendary.
HHH- another tough one. He has a ton of reins, he is going to run WWE someday, he was over both as a face and heel- but is he always someone people are going to talk about? I don't know. We'll never forget him,but I don't think he's a guy people will, again as said by someone, tell our children how great HHH was.
But again, as said by someone, the list is subjective. Whoever you put as a legend is a legend to you.
