Wikipedia. It solves everything.

Michaels isn't about just in-ring ability. Granted, that's a lot of it, but it's certainly not all of it. Besides, if you're going with "Game changing," DX is one of the biggest names of the attitude era.

Was excellent in the Rockers. Only every now and then do Tag Team members break out and be fucking huge, like solid Tag Team members. The Rockers were awesome for their time back when there were loads of tag teams that were actually teams for years. These guys held their own. When his push came and he started taking it, he delivered it with a moment etched in "old dudes" memories. I still remember think "OMG! Shawn hit Marty! lol and the glass smashed!".

Then coming from being the quintessential "the guys wanna be me and the girls wanna be with me" heel, to main event push, the kliq, that screwjob, dX to epic matches right up until his retirement.

The showstopper, the icon, the king of the ladder match... and even the fucking entrance against Bret in the Iron Man match... things he did were sometimes trailblazing, and sometimes just showed people hows it's meant to be done.

Fucking 10 all day. If Shawn Michaels ain't a 10. Seriously, who is? You can't just have one 10 out of 10 wrestler. There's been many greats, and no man walks alone. Flair, Hart, Michaels, Angle, Edge, Rock, HHH and many others that I may not agree with.

I take it rank a wrestler ignores what he has done for the industry and is exactly that. ranking him as a wrestler. Well I have seen many a match, like I said up until he retired that were fucking awesome. Even more so considering the fucking crock of shit we get fed weekly and monthly that sometimes we have to pay for on PPV over here. Fuck sake, he even made Cena look good when RAW was in the UK not so long back. So even based on wrasslin' alone, he's a 10.

10, probably the first wrestler I saw and actually liked aside from the Undertaker. I can't really say anything that others haven't already said but he has it all, sure he had his egotistical moments but he overcame it and continued to put on amazing matches.

10 The best gifted pure talent to ever grace the squared circle. The true Showstopper in every sense of the nickname. When that music hit everyone in that building and watching on TV knew they were in for something special each and every night he went out there. He kept giving us shows unlike we have ever seen before....why? because he could and he did. Okay that last part was cheesy but it worked. Go HBK

Yeah, and now that I just drank a Dunkin' Donuts Coolatta, I think the only one here who'll have the runs is ME. I gave HBK a 10, though, because he's one of the greatest athletes and charismatic performers in the history of the industry.

I gave him an 8. I never much cared for him, but what he has contributed cannot be denied.

I'm just bittered on the decades worth of "HBK gets his arse kicked all match then kips up, hits SCM, and it's over" formula matches.
Then again, Wrestlemania X's ladder match with Hall is a fond childhood memory, and from time to time he shows he is certainly capable of pulling out amazing moments.

However, as someone else said, there are people I wouldn't rate him higher than. Angle, Benoit, Bret, Owen, and Jericho all come to mind.

Are you actually going to count the 5 1 votes and the 3 vote in the overall percentage?

Yes, I understand that. But I think a true pure average needs to exist. I have already set up a spread sheet that will both weed out the poor votes and also get a pure average. All I have to do is plug in the numbers to get both sets of rankings. I'm still trying to come up with a name for it though.
