Then vs. Now

I was busy comparing ultimate warrior to the rock. Honestly this should be considered a tie. Warrior was the most charismatic and energetic guy during his time. The Rock was the most charismatic wrestler of his time. To dig deeper: Ultimate Warrior was also equally as athletic and good in the ring (according to the standards of the times). Ultimate Warrior was considered a good wrestler for his generation where collar and elbow tie ups were key and a splash would pin a guy. The Rock pinned top guys with a shitty elbow drop.

Obviously people would argue that Rocky was a better wrestler than Warrior but consider the wrestling style of the 80s...while considered outdated today, he was one of the top workers of his generation and his energy and charisma could not be topped. Same could be said for Rocky during the 90s. He was one of the top wrestlers for the style of the 90s.

So I call stalemate after some serious evaluations.
