Better Half of HBK's Career

Depends on what you value too. We haven't seen many, or any of these house show matches.
What is more valuable, having solid matches every week and 1 classic every few years? or having standard house matches, and 1 or 2 classics a year?

It boils to down to what your criteria is. Workrate and overall consistency is different than an overall body of work.

To me, I could care less if he's not working many house or tv matches, but choose to focus on the fact that he's pumped out a bunch of instant classics.

In other words, I'd rather watch him work 5 mediocre matches with Kozlov and then tear the house down with Taker, than see him have 5 entertaining but forgettable matches with Jeff Jarrett.

Either way, I voted for his first run. That's because I also factored in things like promos, fueds, his run at the top, and the fact that he was going out there and making classics happen from scratch.
