I met him IRL in Nottingham of all places. Was surprised how tall he was. He did have his wrestling boots on.

(Pro) Wrestling is about performance, and X-Pac really was a performer! He just didn't have the physical size that was demanded of the stars of his era.

Speaking of performance, The Rock was always entertaining! His fights didn't really feel so much like wrestling though - the fight should be a tightly choreographed duet between two sportsmen - almost like ice skating.

I'm struggling to pic an all time favourite - but it will need to be a wrestler that performed a great persona as well as great technique with his (or her!) opponents.

Mick Foley is probably worth a shout for the performance aspect. Taker had some good matches with him. Very long career too. I found the 'walking the rope' quite spectacular too.

Rob Van Dam was my favorite as a kid.

White Trash. Should start a thread with your favorite country singer or meth lab setup, degenerates.

Cael Sanderson is the best wrestler in the modern era. Fuck Russia.

Its hard to pick one because wrestling in the mid to late 90s was truly an amazing thing. So many great names and awesome matches.

I grew up watching Randy Savage and he was probably the most entertaining.

Undertaker was the best monster big guy. I remember when he locked Ultimate Warrior in a casket and I legit thought Warrior was dead lol.

Mick Foley took the hardest bumps and is largely responsible for catapulting the business to popularity in the 90s. Chris Jericho was one of the best all around imo and is horribly underrated. Triple H is probably the best heel the business ever had, but that is mostly due to assimilating Ric Flair's handbook of notes copied from Buddy Rogers.

Sting deserves mad props for carrying WCW as long as he did. Scott Steiner is a living meme and should be put in a museum. Stone Cold sold the most tickets.

I try to watch WWE/AEW but I can't get attached to any of the new talent and spend most of the time heckling the show.
