    Quite a vague question CBK.

    But here goes in no particular order:

    Kurt Angle
    Chris Benoit
    Chris Jericho
    Eddie Guerrero
    Bret Hart

    But, in saying the above, I am leaving out huge talents like Jamie Noble, Paul London, Ricky Steamboat. Im leaving out fiercely entertainly feens like The Rock, HHH, SCSA, HBK.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,482 ✭✭✭RE*AC*TOR


    The Ultimate Warrior
    The Bushwackers
    Brutus The Barber Beefcake
    Rick THe Model Martel
    Hulk Hogan

    All masters of the homo-erotic ballet that is "Professional" Wrestling.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Someone obviously has issues with his sexuality.

    If you dont want to contibute to what could be a good topic, then fúck off please.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,482 ✭✭✭RE*AC*TOR


    Harsh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    Perhaps, but I am sick to my teeth of people coming onto this particular forum just to bitch or tease. Many like Wrestling, many dont. You dont see me (or anyone who posts in this forum) spamming any of the games forums (or any other forums of which I have little/no interest), do you???

    Whats the point like???

    I wouldn't consider what I posted to be spam. I thought all those wrestlers were excellent at what they did in their day. Just because I think its a homo-erotic ballet doesn't make them any less relevant. Some people think computer games are art... i don't. I wasn't taking the piss.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    Spose it could be called a misunderstanding so.................


    BUT how anyone could think that the BushWackers were entertaining?????????????????????


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,482 ✭✭✭RE*AC*TOR


    Are you kidding me? They were hilarious. They always seemed to be the underdogs, and they had a simple non-egotistical charm. I dunno, I was young.
    (BTW I can see how my original post could be taken as trolling given the forum - wasn't meant to be).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,426 ✭✭✭Roar


    in no particular order

    the Hitman
    Rock
    Steve Austin

    The Undertaker
    Stone Cold

    As mentioned above these guys for me where the most entertaining wrestlers to date,they are not necessarily the most gifted as wrestlers but its all about the entertainment value in the end aint it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 579 ✭✭✭Magnolia_Fan


    1. Kurt Angle
    2. Bret Hart
    3. Paul Orndoff
    4. Tazz
    5. Rob Van Dam


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,825 ✭✭✭Healio


    Dont really have a top 5, but Ken Shamrock was my favourite for the short time he was in wrestling. Then i suppose Austin and Foley are next in line.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,143 ✭✭✭D-FENS


    Bit like asking for my fav song or movie this , very hard as i have so many.
    Have a lot of guys i loved over the years and really, no i disliked either.
    But if i was pushed i'd say...

    Bret
    Austin
    Warrior
    Edge
    Bam Bam

    I won't say why because if anyone disagrees, i aint gonna convince them other wise by posting so i won't bother


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 637 ✭✭✭TOPDAWG


    as almost everybody has said these also are in no particular order

    steve austin
    HHH
    kurt angle
    bret hart
    hbk

    not all of them great wrestlers just the ones iv found most entertaining.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 950 ✭✭✭jessy


    1) The Undertaker
    2) Hulk Hogan
    3) Bret
    4) HBK
    5) Kurt Angle

    How can anyone think that The Undertaker's entrance isn’t the coolest thing in the world?
    I’m disappointed that more people didn’t pick the undertaker.


    This is my first post in this forum, didn’t know it existed until yesterday.

    A question off topic. Dose anyone know when or if Brock Lesener Or Goldberg is coming back.

    It was tough for me to leave 'taker out of my top 5, but after pondering over it, it had to be done as i prweferred the others.

    As for Brock and Gillberg, i would'nt hold my breath .
    Lesnar obviously feels very strongly about succeeding in the NFL to give up his cushy number in WWE, but the murmurs are Vince would have him back in a second , and right in at the top again too ( much to the dislike of the other wrestlers) Vince clearly had a soft spot for him as he felt he was one of his genuine creations , and he was a big guy , and he could actually wrestle.Plus Vince would love the controversy his comeback would cause.
    As for Goldberg, he never would have left if he could have gotten the deal wanted which was basically turn up for a PPV once a month and squash a guy for as much money as HHH, which was never gonna happen.
    No would'nt expect them anytime soon but then again i never thought Hogan,Nash,Hall and Warrior etc. would ever come back either but there ya go


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,457 ✭✭✭Cactus Col


    1. KANE (absolutley shocked, SHOCKED!!!, that nobody has mentioned him yet)

    2. Mick Foley

    3. Edge and Christian (I refuse to separate them) (5 second pose!)

    4. Kurt Angle (who I met)

    5. Funaki (did have the rock here, but then I remembered FUnaki, who was a fanatastic wrestler!! absolutely fantastic!! talk about wasted! ... did he have some kind of career ending injury which means he can only wrestle on the very odd occassion and must get beaten?)

    and honourable mentions go to Al Snow, Jericho, HHH, Cena, La Resistance, JBL, Matt Hardy V.1, X Pac, and the Rock


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 67 ✭✭Andrew Fotzpatr


    Austin
    Kurt Angle
    Ultimate Warrior
    Hulk Hogan
    Bret Hart

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    -Chris Benoit
    -Stone Cold Steve Austin
    -Bret Hart
    -Ric Flair
    -The Rock

    Am I the only one who has Flair in a top five?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 156 ✭✭Unit00


    Kurt Angle
    Ultimo Dragon
    Christian
    The Rock
    Mr. Perfect

    They are the five that have entertained me the most throughout the years.

    The below will save the WWE

    Move Angle to RAW or move HBK to Smackdown let them wrestle and then we will have a match/feud/storyline worth watching
