Most of Goldberg's matches didn't last longer than 7 min. Golddust was a better in ring performer than Goldberg. He was fun, and a great character. The win streak was awesome.

Goldberg was a notoriously terrible worker.

Daniel Bryan (Bryan Danielson) — he’s probably my favorite in the last 20 years in-ring. He’s done every style and done it at the top of the game. Hellacious storyteller.
Flair got me into wrestling in the 80s. His best work was in the NWA and WCW, but Royal Rumble ‘92 was a masterpiece. Some of the old man Flair bangers underrated. Best Mania retirement ever. Full body of work, top three.
Michaels, overall, probably the best ever. But he never did much of the crazy hardcore stuff. He was just damn good every time.
I think Steve Austin, had he not had the knee and neck issues, would have gone down as one of the best in-ring talents. Probably my favorite brawler and big moment guy.
In-ring, of who I have seen live in a WWE/NWA or WCW ring, I think my top 10 would go
Michaels
Flair
Danielson
Steamboat
Austin
Savage
Hennig
Guerrero
Angle
Styles

Dynamite Kid said picking up Poffo was like picking up a sack of concrete, while Savage (his brother) was light as a feather.
