I honestly don't know that much about lucha, so I'd make a list missing people too, surely, but the notable omission here is Konnan, who was the top draw in the world in 1993 and 1994. Mistico was also a legit draw from about 2005 until the WWE ruined him. But I think this is a list where the US success of Rey Mysterio actually does warrant placement ont he list, and quite high too. It's not like he was just there and is respected -- he had commercial value to the promotions he was involved with. The same goes for Konnan to the extent he was over in WCW.

Perro Aguayo, Jr. is a name that often pops up in these discussions. As does Dr. Wagner, Jr., Cibernetico, Atlantis, Rey Bucanero and Ultimo Guerrero, although I'm not sure to what extent being a draw in their eras means.
