Insidehoops Greatest Wrestlers Of All Time

[Lebron23]

All ISH posters are eligible to vote. They just need to explain why the vote for this wrestler.

I'll vote for Hulk Hogan. Hogan was arguably the face of wrestling in the 1980's, and 1990's.

And he's the biggest Draw of all time. If you watch his matches in Japan he actually have more than 5 moves.

Hulk can also play the heel character very well. And he was the best heel in WCW history.

Here comes the Bad guy!

[FreezingTsmoove]

John Cena

Single handedly saved the WWE from what could have been a downright horrible era

Imagine the E without Cena.

No one has delivered more classic matches, and memorable moments than this man

[Nick Young]

I think the GOAT is the Rock or Stone Cold Steve Austin. Kurt Angle also has a case, as he is the best in ring out of those three, but Stone Cold was such a badass and made so much money I would have to give him GOAT status.


In terms of being the allaround best and most talented in every aspect of being a pro-wrestler-ignoring cultural impact and icon status-I would have to say Kurt Angle is the GOAT.

Dude could be funny, dude could be serious, dude could be a whiny bitch heel, dude could be a badass monster babyface, he could play any character, he was great at promos, had amazing comedic timing and IMO is top 3 in the ring of all time.

I'll give a shoutout to Sting, just to rep the old WCW days.

I never watched WCW so I don't get what's so great about Sting but he must have been really awesome as everyone loves him.

The only sting I knew was TNA sting. he was ok

[Black and White]

Wrestling ability? Kurt Angle deserves a mention.

Here's a nice WCW career retrospective on the Stinger. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z380AJd78i8)

I was out of the wrestling game by the NWO years so I don't know much about the era of his Goth motif. But blonde sting was one of the greats.

[raprap]

Jeeeeaaaan Cenaaaaa

Seriously, he's the top dog for almost 10 years now. That longevity. Also, he has mastered the wwe wrestling philosophy. Great matches, 15x world champion and a great ambassador for the company. :applause:

[DeuceWallaces]

Lol Lebron23's bold statement is that the most popular wrestler of all time is "arguably the face of wrestling in the 80s and 90s"

Way to go out on a limb.

[WayOfWade]

I say Cena; however I only recently started watching which just so happened to be during his era of dominance. While I love Triple H and the Rock, Cena has them beat in my book

[BurningHammer]

Flair. Cena. Hogan. Kobashi. Andre.

[Akrazotile]

What about Let "The Shitman" Fart?

[Draz]

Kurt
Orton
Cena

[Shade8780]

rick rude

he was strong

[Patrick Chewing]

My Top 5 of all time:

1. Hollywood/Hulk Hogan
2. The Rock
3. Kurt Angle
4. Sycho Sid
5. Goldberg

I'm with it.

There's a number of reasons why the WWF is still around today but Steve was definitley the catalyst of their revival in the attitude era. He was one of the first heels to win fandom over just for being himself. I've heard people say that his best "wrestling" days were behind him before he had ever obtained international fame (due to all the wear and tear)

Stone Cold was the guy...

Hogan would be like the Kareem or the Wilt as a true pioneer with Austin being Jordan and the Rock being Magic.

[Im Still Ballin]

Peak Scott Steiner beats just about anyone

[Shade8780]

honourable mention to fit finlay

didnt call him the belfast bruiser for nothing

[Cold soul]

Vince said Stone Cold Steve Austin is the biggest draw in WWE history and the greatest I tend to agree with him.

1) Austin
2) Hulk Hogan
3) The Rock

Those are my personal top three.

[Done_And_Done]

Honourable mention
