Andy Kaufman sure ticked off a lot of people in Memphis.  If it was a ranking of top wrestling "personalities" he'd have to be up there.

Btw... I watched "The Wrestler" last night.  Pretty good movie.  Rourke was fantastic in it.

Unless a list has these guys on it, I have an issue with it.





Numbers 1 & 2 for me. With the Hitman in third.
Am I missing something maestro? I only see one guy.

Really? Who do you see?
I only see Kurt Angle. If he's #1 who's #2 if The Hitman is #3?

The Rock was #1 and Kurt was #2. I can't look beyond The Rock. How can he be excluded from any list? Hitman is third on merit and because I don't think Stone Cold should crack the top 3 as he was an average wrestler at best.

Surprisingly, Chris Benoit is being left off everyone's list, huh?  :P

As a technical wrestler, though, he was one of the greatest.  I was always very impressed with him, until the tragic episode at the end.

No doubt, Angle, Benoit and Jericho had some superb fights. Chris Benoit was always one of my favorites, but I don't feel right saying that anymore.

Side note - how awful is wrestling now? I tried watching it last year and just cringed. At least 6 years ago it started getting really bad and imo just keeps getting worse.

I always liked The Raven.  His promos were demented.

List looks about right. Flair was the only wrestler who strived pre and post the McMahoning of wrestling.

Any list that omits Killer Kowalski, Antonina Rocca, the Amazing Zuma and Dr. Jerry Graham is a complete joke.

  • I left Indiana. Because it was horrible.
Where is Rowdy Roddy Piper?  The man talked the best game of anyone out there not named Flair or Hogan.  Plus, he starred in one of the greatest movies of our generation.

The Rock, Undertaker, and Foley need to be on this list.
