Separate the Great Ones

Trish Stratus (Icon): When most people think of women's wrestling they think of Trish and will continue to for years to come.

HHH (Legendary, but not Iconic): This is hard for me. I don't know if he's done enough to be considered an Icon of the sport, but at the same time I think he's contributed more than most and has had a more decorated career.

Orton (Legendary, but not Iconic): I think Orton will be the Macho Man to Cena's Hogan when it's all said and done.

Cena (Icon): He may not draw as much as they did or be received by the fans as graciously as they were, but Cena is this era's Hogan/ Austin.

HBK (Legendary, but not Iconic): One of the greatest performers of all time, but I'm not sure I'd put him in the same sentence as Hogan and Austin in terms of being someone who grabbed his era by the balls and made it his. He was always right there under Bret and then shortly after Bret left he ended up retiring and the Austin era began.

Taker (Icon): The greatest big man of all time.

Big Show: Hall of famer. Wouldn't consider him great.

Edge: Hall of famer. Wouldn't consider him great.

Rey Mysterio (Contributor): Fan favorite and sort of carried the flag for the little guy in the main event picture.
