Board 8 > B8's Greatest Wrestlers Ever Ranking

(+) Yeah! (+)

The other major benefit Rock had was getting to go out basically on top.

We have no long tail to his career where he drove his act into the ground and ruined it forever

Rock too high, misawa too low

paulg - 12 (14 points)

nobody familiar with misawa thought he deserved less than 14 points, that's pretty good going

---

as we head into the top 10, it's worth noting that we did very much have a top 12; Toyota to Misawa represented a 39 point swing, the largest gap in the list so far, whereas 2 points separated The Rock from number 10

If there were justice and my points were counted as submitted, we'd have justice and he would be top 10

+25 The Rock

The man is a role model

Imagine being told that you had to name 25 wrestlers for a ballot and failing

...sorry about never doing those write ups, incidentaly. It's... been a rough few months, and I honestly just completely forgot to respond after I saw it. ._.

+25 Mitsuharu Misawa
+24
+23 Eddie Guerrero
+22 Terry Funk
+21 Jushin "Thunder" Liger
+20 The Undertaker
+19
+18 Harley Race

...And y'know, other than Jake, Eddie, Funk, and Meng, I wouldn't really put anyone here on my favorites list. ...Especially my +3, with my undying and largely irrational hatred for the man.

It actually said you didn't need to fill out a full list

---

It didn't feel right to leave Taue off entirely, especially with Baba and the rest of the Four Pillars on. ^_^'

---

Let's get a true list out at the end of this for all the MarkS222222222222222-ites out there

---

You mean people who can't name 25 wrestlers?

---

I can name 26 right now, dare me.

Truthfully, I just got to 13 and didn't think I was in the realm of what I thought was "greatest wrestler" anymore.

I hope you've enjoyed this opportunity to learn about some great wrestlers outside of your realm of knowledge

Like DREW MAC.

I don't want to dismiss your opinion because at least your list didn't contain people like The Great Khali or Iron Sheik but I think most of us were struggling to narrow the list down to just 25 people.

You didn't have to. Your list just wouldn't count as much if you didn't.
