Also, I think Shawn Waltman (aka XPac etc) should get an hon mensh. He got injured almost as many times as Mick.

Stone Cold as well, the Rock doesn't quite get it because...well...just something about it him loses points. And he can't wrestle as well as you would hope for his build.

Professional Wrestlers are entertainers, the man that has entertained the best over the years is

Hulk Hogan

He has charisma, mike skills, an incredible physique, a great memorable look, and has always lived and breathed the classic "good vs. bad" comic book persona, he's the greatest professional wrestler of all time.  He's so good, that even with subpar wrestling skills, he STILL became the most famous wrestler in the world.  That speaks to his charisma more than anything.  

Ric Flair is #2, he had nearly as much charisma, and much better wrestling skills, had a pretty good look, and not a very incredible physique.  I think he probably didn't get exposed to the public as much as Hogan, either, or maybe he would have been the greatest ever.

By the way, Ric Flair says all the time that Hogan's the greatest, and a couple months ago someone asked Hogan if Flair was on his level, Hogan replied No, nobody was on his level.  LOL.  So I guess they're both in agreement.
