Also, Angle can pull off one of the best moonsaults I have ever seen (possibly the best), and sure, it didn't end up too pretty, but the man has it in him to do a 450 Splash. Shawn Michaels may have gotten his start as a fast-paced, high flying worker, but he's toned down a lot over the years to the point where I think he and Angle are sort of comparable in terms of their ability to take to the air. That being said, while I think Shawn Michaels is one of the most exciting wrestlers to ever step into the ring, with so many classics behind him, labeling someone as the best ever is a bit of a risk. I wouldn't like to say that there is a "best ever," because you have some guys who drew a lot more than Shawn Michaels has dreamed of, and you have guys that have just as many ring classics to their name. If someone asks you what the best movie of all-time is, even if you don't like them, there are some answers you can go with: Citizen Kane, The Godfather, etc., and you will technically be correct. They might not be your favourite, but generally they are regarded as "the best." The way I perceive it, there are some wrestlers that you can just get away with calling "the best." They would be Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Bret Hart and Ric Flair. Each one has a ring of truth to it. I'd say that Shawn Michaels is "one of the best." |

Shawn Michaels put 85,000+ asses in seats at WrestleMania.

I'd put Flair above Michaels.
Michaels is easily top three, though. |

Well considering a professional wrestler not really a wrestler but a sports entertainer, then he's definately at the top. I can't even vote on this pole though, because I'm actually undecided. He's a top 10 in every area he needs to be...his matches are almost always entertaining, he's gold on the mic, he oozes charisma, his persona has been beloved for years, and all around he makes any program better. In recent years I've gotten a little bored of him, but the man is heading into his mid-forties and is slowing down a bit...it's expected.
At the same time, it can be argued that since he never hit it big like Hogan, Rock, or Austin that maybe he's just not that big...but idk. |

Austin and Rock built the Attitude era off of HBK's broken freakin' back.

Well basically. BUT Maple syrup is used for things other than pancakes here. Like making candy and some beers.

Don't you know anything KYR?
Maple syrup is what Canadians eat. It's made from unicorns and kitten saliva. Pancake syrup is what real, tangible people eat. |

Surely, as great as Canada is it must have been directly under Shawn Micheals when he was born.

Aren't you Australian? You know damn well the awesomeness of maple syrup!
![]() ![]() By the way, does anyone else remember when Shawn Michaels originally returned to the WWE in 2002, and they were taking it match at a time because the general consensus was that he could be done any given night? That continued pretty much right up to WrestleMania XIX with Chris Jericho, if I recall, which in retrospect, is fucking awesome for Jericho. Potentially Shawn Michaels' last WrestleMania, and the WWE decides to give it to Jericho. "Of course we remember when Shawn Michaels was taking it slowly. What do you think we are...WWE fans?" |
