Actually, Owen was Mid Heavywieght World Champion in Stu Hart's Calgary Stampede Wrestling which produced Bret Hart, Pillman, Dynamite Kid, and even Chris Benoit among many others. He also was a World Champion in the USWA, and an IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion in Japan. So both men have been World Champions in their day.

Also, Owen could be a face or a heel. RVD could never be a heel.

Yeah, but RVD reached such a height of popularity that even if he were to turn heel he would still get the loudest pop in the house.

LOL there is nothing insane about that statement about Owen's title victories. The USWA and Stampede Wrestling were huge back in their hey-days, and Owen's success there really helped him to get to WWE main events later on. Not that his brother working for WWE didn't help either, but Owen was mega talented before he ever stepped into WWE.

You bring up a valid point Triple Naitch. RVD was more over with the crowds than most people and when he made a special appearance in the RR this year, everyone in the restaurant I was watching at went ape shit. They were so loud that people were actually complaining from the OTHER SIDE of the restaurant. RVD will always be one of the most over guys in the business, and that's something not many can claim to do.

I just think Owen Hart had more strings to his bow and as such was more diverse.

I had to go with RVD because he managed to "break the glass ceiling", and despite smark complaints he pretty much had his true potential realized. Some will complain about how he was used, but the guy was always one of the most featured and over guys on the roster, and won every belt in sight. He ended his career in the main event, and won the WWE title. Obviously some think he was held down and was going to be Hogan or something, but he had a damn good run.
Also, there are a handful of matches RVD's been a part of that I hold way over anything Owen Hart did, as great of a wrestler he was. To me Owen Hart was a great wrestler, and might have had the ability to be huge, but he never was. He was also kind of inconsistent. |
