The "Hacksaw" name wasn't even Duggan's originally. He stole it from Butch Reed.


As for One Man Gang/Akeem, I know him pretty well -- super-nice, down to Earth guy. Lives in Central. Also one of the VERY few wrestlers I know who didn't use steroids or any other drugs during his wrestling days.

Anybody on here old enough to remember the Biajon (sic) brothers who used to wrestle in Lafayette back in the 60s ?

Sting is probably around #150 all-time. Many people act like he's an all-time great, but he's really not.

I believe you are referring to the Baillargeons.

Hulk Hogan


Hogan was masterful as a heel, and to me, his work as that was what cemented his true greatness. I just don't agree with anybody who says he was overrated.

Has anyone said Hulk Hogan yet? As a kid I loved him, but looking back he mostly just got his arse kicked until the fans started screaming. Then he would shake, become indestructable, body slam a guy, do a leg drop and pin him.

Man had no wrestling skills. Body slam, leg drop or maybe fling a guy into the ropes the have him run into his extended leg, then leg drop.

Goldberg may not have been a great technical wrestler or the best with the mic, but his brute strength was pretty awesome to watch. He also provided one of the greatest moments in wcw history.

HHH by a huge margin.

Guy is a terrible wrestler, and only reason he's still in WWE, is because he was smart enough to screw the Owners daughter and marry her.

He's horrendous, and i haven't watched wrasslin, since NWO was wrecking people.

That's them. They used to wrestle at that old building on University Ave. by the railroad tracks. It was a fun atmosphere for a little kid but there were some strange folks there. My folks were not real pleased when they found out some friends and I rode out bikes there and got in.

Benoit #1????? What are you basing your list on? Benoit was one of the few wrestlers that could have a 20 minute match\performance every night. While his skills on the mic were terrible he had the respect of his peers in the ring.

Goldberg


Warrior and Goldberg are very similar. 2 guys that were so physically freakish, they stood out in a sport filled with physical specimens. Neither were technical wrestlers, but they didn't try to be. They played to their personas perfectly by using brute strength and power moves. Not everyone needed to be a Brett Hart in the ring.

The one guy I will agree with is hulk hogan, at least for his in the ring skills. He didn't have the technical skills, nor did he display total power and strength like Goldberg or warrior. Every hulk match was the same, the finger pointing, head shaking, hulking up, and the weak arse leg drop.
