Better Wrestler #190 *Hall of Fame Round*

**Emperor Smeat** · 12-16-2010, 05:45 PM

Tough choice since both are great with promos and can put on entertaining matches but my vote went with Piper.

Vince could have chosen anyone to face Hogan and Mr T in the 1st Wrestlemania but he knew Piper was the best choice as the villain and to help Hogan's road to becoming the great superstar he became in the mainstream.

To be fair, I didn't see any of Piper in pre-WWF and early WWF years but at the same time didn't see much of Punk during his ROH and TNA years either.

Punk eventually will become equal to Piper in a few more years and maybe even surpass him since Punk is very well-rounded as a wrestler and as a speaker/announcer.
