I'm probably forgetting much more in actuality. It's impossible for me to have a top ten in all my years of watching wrestling...

I only have a top five. I guess only because I have met all five before and they were the coolest. But Hack Saw was the coolest of all time, he was a shitty wrestler wrestler though. Ric Flair and Pipers books were the two best wrestling books that I have ever read. I rate New Jack only because he was the king of extreme hardcore and he went to the bar with me and my buddies after a low budget show for a few beers. Terry Funk and Mick Foley were hardcore, but The Jack is just plain insane.

Brett Hart
Ric Flair
Roddy Piper
Chris Benoit
New Jack

I'll go top 10 heels (just my opinion) I only ever watched WWF and WCW.


1. Chris Jericho (circa 1998-1999)

The Lion Heart - whining, petulant, borderline cowardly, vicious, a weasle! Funniest fucking guy I've ever seen, the guy was a high flying 5* wrestler and an outrageous comedian / personality to boot. What a legend

2. HHH (circa 1999-2000)

No further - he went on to dominate behind the scenes, and got boring. But when there were bigger stars allowed to exist than him, such as Stone Cold, The Rock, The Undertaker, Mick Foley etc.... then he was at his best, playing the prick foil against some of the most beloved fan favourites of all time

3. The Undertaker (circa 1998-1999)

4. Kane (circa 1997-1998)

5. Scott Hall (circa 1996-1997)

6. Kurt Angle (circa late 1999-2000)

7. Hollywood Hogan (circa 1996-1997)

8. The Rock (circa late 1998-1999)

9. Stone Cold Steve Austin (circa 1996-1997)

10. Steven Richards (circa 2000-2001 - The Right To Censor)


Honourable mention: Kevin Nash, Hall's other half in the original NWO, and Syxx and The Giant - the other members of the 5 piece incarnation of the original NWO of 1996

Man, I haven't watched wrestling in years. Just lost all interest in it when I started watching MMA. But if I were to make a list...

Rob Van Dam has always been my favorite. The guy is just so damn smug, arrogant, and wreckless.

As far as tagteams; RVD and Sabu. Oh, and of course... the true, ECW Dudley Boyz. Fuck Team 3D.

Some honourable mentions before I get to my top 10. Here's 5 guys that didn't quite make it but were very very close:

- Diamond Dallas Page
- Ric Flair
- Hulk Hogan
- Edge
- Chris Jericho

Top 10 Heels
1. 'Taker. This really begins and ends the list. People have drawn more heat, but nobody has ever nailed a characterization the way he has.

Chris Benoit, Kurt Angle, Jushin Liger

My favorite three.

It's kind of sad that I didn't even think of Benoit. Him, Malenko, Perry Saturn, Eddie Guerrero... those guys all destroyed life. Most especially when they wrestled each other.

If every rasslin tape that ever existed miraculously disappeared except for 90s AJPW, I wouldn't be too upset. That is by far the greatest shit of all time.

During the Austin era most of my wrestling friends used to bust my balls about the Japanese shit. They were brainwashed and convinced that if it didn't have chairs and/or a millions run-ins that it was shit. That was until I forced some of them into watching Kobashi vs. Dr. Death before a random PPV. Jaws dropped and convulsing commenced. Motherfuckers didn't have shit to say after watching some "real" rasslin.

In retrospect, it was like an opening act blowing away the headliner before they even came out.

Too many to name. Bobby Heenan is probably my favorite person ever involved with wrestling, though.
