who's your favorite wrestlers?

[the big 88]

My favorite tag teams were the hart foundation, demolition, and the rockers but out of all those my top fave was the rockers (shawn michaels and marty jannety) I liked their high flying style and move chordination. Awesome to watch. Two of the people in those tag teams went on to become wrestling icons Bret Hart (hart foundation) and Shawn Michaels (the rockers)

I'm over Triple H as well. Never thought he was great on the mic or in the ring.

Who else misses the Hoooooooooooo Train?

Me either- I think the reason he is where he is is who he is (and who he is married to)

Favorite Wrestler: Hollywood Hulk Hogan. NWO heel, not the sissy eat your vegetables and brush your teeth Hogan.

The nWo faction was the single greatest faction ever created.

Holloywood Hulk Hogan
Kevin Nash
Scott Hall

All the original members. It's really too bad that Vince McMahon wasn't smart enough to make the nWo work in the WWE when Hogan, Hall, and Nash came back at "No way out" right after the merge of WWE,WCW, and ECW.

But Hogan as a Heel was the best ever.

Can't tell you how much it bothers me that you're thinking about cbz's underwear...

I won't say that it's an acquired taste. :

Hogan couldn't carry a paper bag in the ring. Punch, Punch, Big Boot, Legdrop, brother! (nWo Hogan added the face rake, the back or front rake, a terrible chair shot, a face wash with the boots, and an eye poke to this stunning repertoire).

Nice to see somebody agrees with me. A skilled wrestler would carry him all match then he would "hulk up" punch, punch, boot to face, leg drop, 123, and they crowd would go nuts for some unkown reason.

HBK Shawn Michaels is by far my favorite. Great as a heel or face. Could have a great match with anyone. Had a great match with Vader @ SS in 96 or 97. Anyone who could make Vader look good in the ring is a special wrestler. Too bad he had to have the disk fusion, and miss the majority of the Attitude era. He could've had some great matches with SCSA, and The Rock.

You know wrestling is fake, right?

It's a show, and he was and is one of the most recognizable wrestling icons to ever live.

Was he flashy? No. But he sold out arenas for years.

Because he is the antichrist-the only way to explain his popularity. Most jobbers are better in the ring and on the mic than him, BROTHER!!! No other way to explain it, that and the fact that he was Thunderlips- and that match was arguably the best he ever had.

And no, I was not aware that wrestling was fake. I'm going to need some proof before I believe you.

RAW is Jericho- Jericho rules!

The only wrestling shirt I ever bought was a "Monday Night Jericho" w/ the Monday Nitro logo and "Jericholics Anonymous" on the back. I never have really watched him after he left WCW in 2000 for McMahon, but he was the greatest.

For the Jericho lifers out there, you should see him in Jim Cornette's Smoky Mountain Wrestling, circa 1993-1995 (there are DVDs out there). He "bladed" once and accidentally went too far, and it was one of the goriest bloodbaths in recent times.

I've got that DVD- I LOVED SMW! It was so redneck and backwards- AWESOME!

My favorite wrestler of all-time was Bret "The Hitman" Hart. Currently... meh.

 

[THUMPER]

So did he.

He is the only wrestler in History to go 4 years of college undefeated.

He was also undefeated in high school.

In fact, he has never been beaten.

Actually, he lost 3 times in high school and ended with a record of 127-3.

Still an awesome achievement!

He went 159-0 in college over his 4 years.

Cael Norman Sanderson (born June 20, 1979 in Salt Lake City, Utah), (pronounced "kale") is an American wrestler and current head wrestling coach at Iowa State University. A 2004 Olympic champion, he also went undefeated in four years of college wrestling (159-0), including four consecutive NCAA titles (1999-2002) and was the first NCAA wrestler to go undefeated with more than 100 wins. Sports Illustrated named his college career as the No. 2 most outstanding achievement in college history. He was also the 2003 World Championship silver medalist, and a three-time national freestyle champion (2001-03).

Cael was the third of four Sanderson brothers to win high school state wrestling titles in Utah while wrestling for Wasatch High School in Heber, Utah. Sanderson had a 127-3 record with four state titles. He was coached by his father Steve. He was also an All-Region selection in football.
