Topic	B8's Greatest Wrestlers Ever Ranking
Maniac64 06/28/20 12:26:33 PM #165:	46. Christian Score: 37 # of Lists: 3 Rising to prominence through the infamous ladder/TLC feud with the Hardys and the Dudleys, Christian is part of some of the most memorable tag matches in WWF history. But even after the tag team broke up in 2001, Christian would continue to be one of the most entertaining parts of the show - earning his Captain Charisma nickname of 2005. He looked poised for a big singles run in WWE, but then did something historic - was the first WWE talent to jump to TNA. He had a run on top there with some great matches, but more importantly legitimized the idea for WWE names of jumping ship to TNA, something that would be quite a theme of the next few years. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7aquny; Christian vs. Randy Orton - May 22, 2011 45. Keiji Muto / The Great Muta Score: 38 # of Lists: 2 (Guest Writeup: Illuminatusbubu) Without a doubt, one of the most, if not the most, famous Japanese wrestler outside of Japan until the boom of NJPW in the last 5 years. He is even more famous in Japan as one of New Japan's legendary "Three Musketeers" during the 1980-90s boom. His star power is unmatched as he was once simultaneously hold the IWGP Heavyweight Championship and the Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship, the top belts of NJPW and AJPW, two biggest companies in Japan. He is one of the few who can claim to master both in-ring skill and character work. He started as young, agile, exciting, and explosive. As he got older, he reinvented himself as a crafty, master of mindgames, while innovated moves like Muta lock and Shining Wizard along the way. He might also be better known in his alter ego, The Great Muta, which he switching back and forth his entire career. While he did not originate the gimmick, but like Ric Flair, he made it his own so that it became one of the most influential gimmicks in puroresu. As The Great Muta, he was more aggressive and weapon-friendly. He was involved in one of the bloodiest wrestling match with Hiroshi Hase, which inspired the Muta Scale, the indicator of bloodiness in wrestling match. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x26dq8d; Keiji Muto vs. Masahiro Chono, August 11 1991 44. El Santo Score: 39 # of Lists: 3 (Guest writeup: Jakyl25) No one in the history of professional wrestling is more important to their territory than El Santo is to Mexico. To generations of fans, the iconic silver mask is sacred; the symbol of a real life superhero. You can visit museums dedicated to El Santo, the greatest luchador to ever live. Very few of his matches survive to viewed today, as most of his output was before the era of television. In a sense, though, it only enhances his legend. Can you imagine the feats of this man our ancestors worshipped and carved statues of. Superman walked among us, south of the border. He of course starred in many films as his character, vanquishing all types of foes both mortal and supernatural with the power of his lucha libre. I have attached one of them. Viva El Santo! Viva Lucha Libre! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdIiriExBSw; El Santo & Blue Demon vs. Dracula, The Mummy, The Wolfman, The Cyclops and Frankenstein's Monster, May 14 1970 43. Bull Nakano Score: 42 # of Lists: 2 (Guest Writeup: sephsblade) With a bucketload of charisma, an ever-changing but always delightful collection of extragavant outfits and hairstyles, Bull Nakano dominated both the AJW in the period between the Crush Gals and Toyota as well as having a strong run in the WWE with some of the best womens wrestling that promotion has ever seen in its history until the unfortunate discovery of some cocaine on her person, especially her feud with Blayze (if you can stomach the commentary in most of her matches, which spend 90% of them calling her fat for some reason????). Nakano was an excellent powerhouse-style wrestler who was also adaptable enough to wrestle the more flippy later AJW era, as well as play the scrappy fighter against bigger wrestlers like Aja, and was a great seller- and no-seller, as the case often was in America as she played the monster heel. She also became a golfer. Her golf career was a much bigger crime than the cocaine thing. Dont watch it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kUCHirftKE ; Bull Nakano vs. Akira Hokuto, April 1 1991 --- "Hope is allowed to be stupid, unwise, and naive." ~Sir Chris <cite>Maniac64 posted [p:941383139] in B8's Great...
