The guys you mentioned all had something that today's wrestlers lack: charisma, and an ability to connect with the fans.


i don't think they lack the ability so much as they aren't taught the way they used to be in the old days and also the onus was much more on them to develop their characters and their promos themselves. Today the creative team gives them their lines and they have to just go out and recite them.
