I believe he's on pace to finish his age 26 season with 181. Daddy Vladdy finished his age 26 season with 170.

Jr. already has ~190 more games played and 600 more plate appearances, though.

Was coming to post this one as being a close race. Cam's dad is in the Vikes' ROH I believe. Cam has had an awesome career though.


Yeah I think Cam bests him out with that 2 extra pro bowls and 3 all pro selections.

Plus I would think Cam has to make the Saints Hall of Fame and Ring of Honor.

Cal Ripken Jr.


Sr. never made it out of low minors before switching to coaching so technically brother Billy Ripken would qualify too. Plus he has that "f--k face" baseball card which is baseball lore.

Qualified for the U.S. Olympic Trials multiple times. To accomplish that, you’re pretty damn good.

You serious Clark? David Flair had a better career than Greg, and David was God awful.

Von Erich bros


This one sadly is debatable. David would have been had he not died so young. Kevin and Kerry are the only contenders to be better than Fritz, but I’d say it’s splitting hairs. Mike had no business in the ring and was forced into it by Fritz. Chris sadly had the desire but wasn’t blessed physically like the brothers.

Oooooooh Yeah!!!!!

Brett Hart


Another no brainer. Still wish we got a Bret/Angle match.

Jake the Snake


I don’t know as much about Grizzlys career outside of Dark Side of the Ring, so I’m inclined to say yes. But Jake should have been more. If only he could keep his head straight.
