I liked sting while he was the crow rip off.

let's not over look Jake the Snake Roberts.............but phsycho is correct DR. Death will forever be "THE MAN" in my mind!

For those who remember Jerry "Crusher" Blackwell, who was in excess of 450lbs gave the The Dr. 6 or 7 splashes from the top rope and The Doc still kicked out after the 6 or 7th one. I saw that in person when I was about 7 years old, and to this day it is definetly in my top 3 of matches ive witnessed in person. I did however forget one of my favorites of all time, 2 actually.

"The Russian Nightmare" Nakita Koloff


"The Iceman" King Parsons

You would have to really be a wrestling fan and atleast in your mid 20's to know who "The Iceman" is, but he paved the way for guys like Booker T and Ron Simmons, and even The Rock. If you think The Rock was the origanator of the word roody poo, you are mistaken. It was The Iceman.

Before George "The Animal" Steele was a Wrestler, he was a high school gym teacher in Sterling Heights, MI. My best bud showed me his yearbook...still looks the same!! And what about The HULKSTER and Rowdy Roddy Piper???? No mention???

[Saludapaintballer]

I was the first to mention rowdy roddy piper a few posts back...he was the man for a while...definitely one of the all time greats
