Best Wrestler of All-Time

Who do you like the best? For me, I think its Kevin Nash AKA Diesel AKA Big Sexy.

He was the longest reigning WWF champion of the 90s and then he founded the NWO, plus he is a giant and I think wrestlers should be gigantic.

Nah, his partner, Shawn Michaels, is widely heralded as one of the best ever

Shawn Michael isnt Top 5, maybe not even top 10 or 20

1) Kevin Nash
2) Undertaker
3) Stone Cold
4) Bret Hart
5) Chris Jericho

Did you just make this list up? I'm willing to bet that most other people don't have Kevin Nash in their top 5, much less #1, MUCH LESS LESS ahead of the Heartbreak Kid.

Power bomb is one of the best moves ever for sure. But for my money Ultimate Warrior was the fucking best. I even had the wrestling buddy when I was little.

Clearly it's X-Pac.

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.
