Kurt Angle, Brett Hart and Chris Jericho are, by far, the best the company ever had. I am a huge Angle fan... was there any wrestler who didn't look 100 times better when they had a match with Kurt? He knew how to sell and still get over huge. It was too bad about Lesnar leaving because I thought his program with Angle was GREAT, but that botched shooting star at Mania scared him, I think. Still, Angle saved him in that match... Jericho is the same. Awesome heel heat, and he makes people look good. All three of those guys knew how to tell a story in a match; That art seems lost recently. Orton has potential; His match against Mick Foley a few years back was legend, but he is too boring on the mic and his character is weak. I haven't watched since Angle left TBH; SMACKDOWN in particular is unbearable.

Bret was my favourite wrestler ever, but i think the likes of The Rock, Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, HHH, Undertaker - purely from a character point of view. If your talking wrestling pov, then you've got to include Benoit, Guerrero, Mysterio et alOriginally posted by BrooklynRed View PostKurt Angle, Brett Hart and Chris Jericho are, by far, the best the company ever had.Thomas Hicks Senior

Agreed. Orton can't sell sex in a whorehouse. WWE has been unbearable to watch. Might be interested with Jericho returning.Originally posted by BrooklynRed View PostKurt Angle, Brett Hart and Chris Jericho are, by far, the best the company ever had.

You are really into your wrestling aren't you lol.Originally posted by Ben Tover View PostHow could you miss out the Undertaker or Bret Hart?
Wasn't that big into it myself.
I did like the undertaker too.Bill shankly to Tommy Smith after he'd turned up for training with a bandaged knee:
'Take that poof bandage off, and what do you mean YOUR knee, it's LIVERPOOL'S knee !'
"Sorry, boss, I should have kept my legs together," said Lawrence. "No, Tommy, your mother should have kept her legs together!," replied Shankly.
* After Tommy Lawrence had let in a fluke goal between his legs

Agree. I mean wrestling as a sport where you have to sell as well as you do offense and where mic skills count just as well; Hart, Angle and Jericho tell a story at all times. One of the biggest problems with Vince is his love of giant men who can do neither well, and the stories suffer because the matches don't tell a story and they end up relying on Dusty finishes, etc. Benoit, Guerrero, and Mysterio are very good, but Benoit was awful on the mic and his ring work was never suprising to me, Guerrero was very athletic and had a good character, but again, I feel like he had a hard time putting the other guy over, and Mysterio is athletic and does great ring work, but again, always the little underdog and no mic work.Originally posted by Morph View PostBret was my favourite wrestler ever, but i think the likes of The Rock, Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, HHH, Undertaker - purely from a character point of view.

Rock, Austin, HHH-- BORING, one-note wrestlers, great characters and Amazing mic work. Taker, GREAT character and athletic big man with great stories; legend. That said, has he ever put anyone over ever in his life? EVER? Michaels has it all, and I'd include him as one of the best for sure, but I don't like his character all that much. A super great worker though.
