For me, Eddie, Benoit, and Owen are tops.
Eddie and Owen because they were so beloved not only by their peers, but by legions of fans. I teared up for both Owen and Eddie's Raw tributes. You can just see the love and respect that people had for them. And they left us out of nowhere.
Eddie for me especially. This is guy I had known and loved to watch since WCW. Seeing him win the WWE title after all the struggles and hardships he endured due to his own demons, only to overcome that and become one of the greatest success stories ever is heartbreaking.
Benoit takes the "WTF" factor. Once the real story hit, it was surreal. You watch a guy do his thing for ten years or so and then all of a sudden he goes and does to his family what he did. Unreal.
