If you would have used a more current picture of Jeff Jarrett, I probably would have voted Rhino, but that Double J character was a great heel. I think Jeff made more out of it than they expected.

Jarrett always pissed me off as a guy who stole everybody else's gimmick. He used Honky Tonk's guitar and Flair's strut. The only entertaining thing about him was when they discovered that Jarrett lip-synched all his songs and that Road Dogg was the one who really sang them.

Jarrett. My favorite run of his was his first WWF run. His match against Razor Ramon at the '95 Royal Rumble is an all time favorite 'moment' of mine, especially the finish.

Rhino.

I like Jarrett, but mostly only recall his late WWF/WCW stuff. Only seen him once in TNA.

In reflection neither man has actually accomplished much in their careers, but if you asked me now who I'd rather watch, I'd go with Rhino.

Never really liked Jeff Jarrett as a wrestler since his change from the country music singer to the slap-nuts short hair heel wrestler. Still think he was a poor choice to be leading WCW even when it was in its final year but that would be more of Russo and the bookers than himself.

Voted for Rhino/Rhyno since his ECW work impressed me more. He could have been made into a bigger star had WWE given him enough of a push since he had the athletic ability for a "big" wrestler. Similar to a Brock Lesnar in wrestling ability that could be pushed even more with a manager to help with promos.

This is a hard one for me. Both aren't anywhere near my "great" list, but I like both of them.

HOWEVER!

I have seen Rhino in WWE and TNA only... and have liked him pretty consistently.

Jeff Jarrett I only liked in WWE after he got his short-hair, and I enjoyed him in WCW. Did not and do not care for him in TNA.

So I vote for the guy I liked consistently. Even though I may have liked Jeff in WCW more than I ever did Rhino.

Honestly, I think these two are two of the more overrated and waste of talents that the wrestling industry has seen in a long time.

When Rhino left ECW and went to WWE I thought he could have been anything. He was getting the right feuds, Heyman was commentating for him like a man possessed (for obvious reasons) and the WWE was pushing the hell out of him. Then it just stopped. He really hasn't been the same since even though he had a nice run for a while in TNA.

As far as Jarrett goes, I know he has his share of fans, but I've never really been one of them. To be honest he bores me. Actually, I have found this recent Bischoff-Jarrett angle to be the most interesting angle that I have ever seen him be involved in.

I understand what he has tried to do for the industry and what he has been a part of, but that doesn't take away from the fact that until recently I've wanted to fast forward almost every segment that he's been in and I don't do that with wrestling so I've watched it and tried to find some entertainment factor in it.

So it's Rhino for mine but both have been disappointments.

Maybe it wasn't intentional on creative's part, but to me it was always clear Jarrett was emulating Flair right down to the strut and the figure four.

Spend my day workin' hard on the go
But the hands on the clock keep spinnin' too slow
I can't wait to be alone with my baby tonight
Well my baby's got me wrapped around her little finger
Cause you know that I would walk through hell and back to be with her
I can't wait to be alone with my baby tonight
(Turn the lights off, close the door)
We'll leave every worry in the world behind
(Hold me in your arms, never let me go)
Baby it's true, I've got a one track mind
Cause it's hard to concentrate around a girl like mine
(I can't wait to be alone with my baby tonight)



.....that was all from memory, ladies and gentlemen. I'm not proud.
