BillsPride12 Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 I'll give you my Mt. Rushmore list since to me there's 4 guys that stand out on a whole other level that there was nobody else I could list with them at #5. To me the all around best I've ever seen that had the total package of in ring ability, on the mic and promo ability and natural charisma were: Ric Flair Macho Man Randy Savage Shawn Michaels Stone Cold Steve Austin It's hard for me give the number 5 spot to somebody because if I based it off in ring ability I would give it to the Hitman Brett Hart but if I based it off of personality and Charisma I would give the nod to Hogan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible mic work, great technique and my all-time favorite finisher. A.J. Styles likely will be up there, too, after he calls it a career.

apuszczalowski Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 This is tough to do because there's really 2 categories, in ring/technical ability and Mike skills/character. For me, someone like Hogan would be at the top of the 2nd category but not very high in the first one. Benoit would fit in the opposite to me, near the top of the first but much lower in the second. I would put someone like Jericho in a balance between the 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 It'll always be Hogan for me. I was right in the age range that his whole act was targeted at and I ate it up as a kid. After that, I'd probably go with Kurt Angle. He wasn't the same once they tried to make him more serious, but the goofy character he played at the start was absolutely amazing. Now that I mention it, I think I'm going to have to go dig up some of his old interactions with Edge and Christian. That stuff was comedy gold. I guess I'd list them as my favorite tag team because I'm quickly realizing that the stuff I enjoyed the most was the characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
