Top five favorites:

1. Arn Anderson
2. Ric Flair
3. Million Dollar Man, Ted DiBiasi
4. HHH
5. Mankind/Dude Love/Cactus Jack

(Honorable Mention to the Great WoJo of the WWA out of Toledo)

Top five greatest wrestlers (I include wrestling ability and showmanship):

1. Bruno Sammartino
2. Ric Flair
3. HHH
4. Bret Hart
5. Chris Benoit

Your what me and my friends call a WWE clone. HHH may be the worst wrestler of all time followed closely by Mike "all I do is take shots and bleed" Foley. Someday within the next 10 years or so, WWE will collapse as a company because of Vince McMahon and that will be the best thing to happen to wrestling in like 50 years. Hopefully he will sell the NWA belt to someone like the Jarret family before he withers away and dies from the roids he takes.

Ever since about 3 years ago when the rosters split, two shows, two sets of titles, I feel that it has really went down the drain.

About 6-7 years ago, a period that was called the Attitude Era, when The Rock, Stone Cold, Mankind, HHH, and other greats were in there, that was the best time.

It was also a time that the WWF(Now WWE) actually had a competition, in WCW.

That era, the story lines, the matches, were the best. But it took its toll on the wrestlers. Most fans want to see table matches and ladder matches every week. That is what the Attitude Era was all about. The WWF needed that to stay in business.

Now with no competition, only a slight one coming from TNA Wrestling, the WWE can do whatever the hell they want. They own the wrestling world. So they don't have to put their wrestlers through a Mankind-like beating every night.

It disturbs me that anyone would have that much knowledge of the WWF(E).

I am not a huge wrestling fan by any means, and hate to even argue anything so stupid, but HHH has completely ruined wrestling :biggrin:

I have not watched wrestingly in about five years, so I have to ask what HHH had done to ruin it.

Five years ago he was at the top of the industry and even though he didn't have the love from fans like the Rock and Steve Austin had, he was the most complete wrestler in terms of ability and manipulating the crowd.

Some people like to criticize wrestling as being mindless stupidity and a soap opera for dudes...and they're right. Nevertheless, I still tune in on occasion b/c I enjoy it. My top 5...

5) Shawn Michaels
4) Kurt Angle
3) The Undertaker
2) Rowdy Piper
1) Ric Flair

I picked up Flair's autobiography about a year ago assuming it would be awful, and it turned out to be a pretty fun read. It's hardly a classic, but the stories of the partying he did with other wrestlers are pretty damned funny.
