Yeah, I don't know much about Brian outside of the 4 horsemen, and even that is limited. I found him enjoyable, but don't see him as the legend that Jake is, so I voted for the snake.

I grew up with Flyin' Brian as my fave wrestler on WCW Saturday Mornings over here. I'd probably pick him over 95% of the wrestlers that will come up

Not really seen much of Pillman outside of his (brilliant) batshit crazy promos and a couple of matches from the Hollywood Blondes era but absolutely loved the Jake as a kid. Snake with the win via rose tinted glasses.

Pillman never really stood out to me the way Jake Roberts did at least for the right reasons anyway so he gets my vote again.

Gotta go with Brian Pillman
He was fantastic in WCW as a light heavyweight, as a horsemen and then the loose cannon character I also enjoy his stuff from ECW |

Jake Roberts. I saw more of his matches and liked his character more than Pillman who I only saw near the end of his WCW years to time in WWF.
Both were good in terms of wrestling, promos, and character. Both also ended up being involved with Stone Cold during his rise as a star with Roberts being the one he defeated to set up Austin 3:16 and Pillman being a backstage friend during his rough time in WCW. |

Pillman had some very good promo's but Jake's were legendary, and no one ever bought a ticket because Brian Pillman was on the card.

Jake Rooberts was one of the gratest but I cant vote against brian pillman who was way advanced and ahead of his time in his character and everything. I just wish I could have seen him in his prime instead of catching up on youtube and old videos and stuff.

Snake had a far bigger impact on wrestling and his promo skills were fairly better than Flyin Brian. Not to mention Jake's ring psychology is legendary.

In response to your deleted post Narc, can you find a promo where Pillman is wacked the fuck out for real?

I don't believe I ever made the claim that he was whacked the fuck out in a promo. I alluded to the fact that I'm sure he got pretty blitzed on his own accord from time to time, but didn't really want to take the time to research it. Which is why I deleted the post. You shithead.

You brought up the drug use, honey.
Yes, Jake eventually turned into a mess of a human being. He was well out of the majority of the public eye at that point though. If we're judging him at his job, isn't it fair to judge him as a wrestler when he was... you know... relevant? Last edited by Nark Order; 03-01-2011 at 05:53 PM. Reason: apostrophe |

In all honesty, you don't have to tell me how great Jake was. I loved him. I'm just a Cincinnati boy trying to put Brian Pillman through to the next round, and I will take any cheap shots I can to get him there. WHO DEY! |

Take all the cheap shots you'd like, toots. I didn't delete that post due to the fact that I was scared, I deleted it because I was lazy and didn't want to research Pillman's drug usage. You cotton-headed ninny muggins.

Damn, I missed the poll. Loved them both, but Jake gets my vote cause his ring psychology was unmatched by almost anyone.
