Austin and Rock, they are the only 2 I could not justify leaving off.

The theme tune, the head shake, the sweet moveset, the chest protector... He was, for one brief fleeting moment, the greatest entertainment I have ever seen in wrestling. I absolutely adored him and I think he should have stayed in WWE forever. I opted for him because no matter how much I watch and learn about wrestling now, I will never be as entertained by the whole package of one wrestler as I was then with D-Lo Brown. It's the childhood factor, I watched more wrestling in "The Attitude Era" than I had before or have since and for some reason he was always involved in something great. D-Lo Vs Jeff Jarrett was a true feast for the eyes any time it went down. As an adult I just can't vote The Rock even though he was my idol as a kid because rewatch his matches is often quite painful because of his weak sauce offense. |

Hysterical that Noid had a Freudian slip and called Cody one of his favorite wrestlers.

For me number one is easy, it's Sting. After that it's a toss up between Stone Cold, Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles, and JBL. If I had to pick it'd be Stone Cold Steve Austin just because I've met him.

If you found out Sting and Stone Cold had probably showered in the same shower block and both likely washed their assholes while in there would you still love them the most?

Is it just me or is Jimmy Uso way better than Jey Uso? And I hate admitting that, because I hate the name "Jimmy."
Also, are both "Jimmy" and "Jey" supposed to be derivative of "James?" They should turn heel and become one wrestler named "James Reigns." They swap out and constantly help each other get a leg-up in singles competition. In FCW they were "Jules and Jim," which was presumably a reference to the Truffaut film. James Cameron Reigns |

Okay, those are the two gimmicks I want to see now:
* James C. Reigns -- film aficionado, who uses his twin to win matches and launch his singles identity. * Mickey Uso -- the other Uso singles gimmick with a team of cheerleaders who come out and dance for him, eventually bringing in The Spirit Squad to be his lackeys. Each gets ahead by helping the other by dressing up as their gimmick. They can also revive The Hurricane/S.H.I.T. gimmicks as a way to still be in tag team competition without leaving their singles career behind. |

I remember in ARMCHAIR WARFARE I had an Uso and I renamed him Jonothan Solofa Fatu (his real name), and had him come out as the sophisticated manager who had found himself a monster, who was Mike Knox. So the refined sophisticated Samoan was managing the wild white man monster.

These 2 had the best fucking matches together. Something about Bret brought the most out of Perfect.And Perfect's aggression meshed so well with the Hitman.
KOTR 93 match is better than the SS 91 match. BUT they have a fuckload of houseshow matches from around 89 that fucking rule. The SS 91 match is really good - but hindered by Hennig's bad back. |

Honestly, the second pick can be replaced by a few doaen other people depending on my mood, but Eddie is a constant.

When I first started watching as a little boy my top 2 were:
Hacksaw Jim Duggan Hulk Hogan And a few years later my top 2 were: The Undertaker Bret Hart Then as a fresh teen when Attitude was in full effect: The Rock D-Lo Brown Now as a fully grown man I look back and I think I could pick any of them pretty happily. I have to say that for replay value nobody is beating Flair, Bret or Mankind very easily. They are pretty much untouchable with that regard. |

Bret Hart just did everything so realistically.
During the infamous Austin match there are moments where he looks like he's actually trying to maim him. But then you go back and watch any other match and it's almost always the same level of insane intensity, unless he's wrestling another face. He put in some serious mean mugging for a beloved hero. That's refined artistry in a very niche craft. You have to admire that. |

Good old Ryback.
Posted at Rajah and possibly several other forums just to promote himself before he made it. The Silverback! |

That guy was a wrestler?!
That's pretty much the best punch for punch fight you will ever see. Just two big bastards trying to kill each other with no hint of finesse. Brute force flailing. |
