After his quad tear I feel like the combination of his injury plus putting on so much muscle mass really hampered his mobility and agility. I don’t think anyone in the 90s would ever accuse him of being slow and plodding, but his later run he just didn’t have it anymore, and it could often make for a long, boring affair.

When I hear THE GOAT, the only thing that comes to mind first, is THE GOAT James Blade. One of the most charismatic people to ever step into a wrestling ring. This man on the microphone is up there with the greats and he is a good wrestler too. There's a reason he is THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME and ready for prime time!!!!! |

The answer is Kenny Omega:
-Nobody has had as many 5+ star matches as him. -Legit main eventer in two promotions that were built on his back, essentially. New Japan had been around for years, obviously, but was struggling and he increased their business. They are still benefiting! -Was a bad promo, maybe, in his ROH days, but is now hilarious on the mic and delivers in a unique and eloquent way. “69 me, Don!” -Looks like a star. Was on billboards and fucking trains in Japan. You can’t buy that sort of publicity! -And he’s obviously great in the ring. No one has ever been smoother. Makes Kobashi look like a fucking brick. -Can work any style. Never saw Terry Funk do lucha. Austin may have sold more t-shirts with the WWE platform behind him. Terry Funk was pretty good for a territory rassler. Ric Flair is mainly remembered because of nostalgia and the WWE giving him a push in the 2000’s. Hulk Hogan didn’t have workrate and needed Vince to get over. The Rock has had a more successful movie career (so far), but think about it: Is there anything any of them they can do what Kenny can do? The answer is Kenny Omega. End (see what I did there?) of discussion. |

I can remember when Noid wasn’t completely insane.

I retract my vote for Hogan in this topic and apologize. It's Austin, Austin is the GOAT. There is no debate.
