RVD, he would've been world champ if not for HHH holding him back
Chris Jericho

I agree...I don't watch wrestling anymore partially because of him and how things have gone downhill

I would say Owen Hart RIP, D-Lo Brown, Sean O'haire, Perfect and Dibiase

There's about 5 wrestlers that I think were on par with the best of all time, but aren't ever remembered that way.

Curt Hennig like already said... he was just raw talent, I'd even say he's a more naturally gifted athelete than Ric Flair, he just hasn't had the career Flair has had and isn't as good on the mike.   The last match I saw of Hennig was on TNA, he wrestled David Flair... he said that Flair probably didn't show up, like his daddy used to no show, and that David was such a scrub he wouldn't even put his tights on to wrestle him, so he wrestled out of shape David Flair in his fucking jeans and cowboy boots and still was flawless.  Curt Hennig is incredibly underrated, easily one of the most talented wrestlers to ever get in the ring. 

Scott Hall - Last Call Hall will always be remembered for being a drunk, but even up to his last few matches in the WWE, even clearly out of shape he was fucking phenomenal.  His ringwork from around the time they started the NwO was head and shoulders above pretty much anyone in the company at the time, but he'll always be remembered for being a drunk, and not for being a phenomenal wrestler.

Ted Dibiase - As far as fun and talent, this guy had it all.  Underrated, though, because you'll never see him on a 'great wrestler' list, but I think he was great.. he had awesome mike skills, and was a talented athlete in the ring.  Great Gimmick, too.

Ravishing Rick Rude - Great wrestler, Great gimmick, Great physical conditioning, great mike skills, really , REALLY had the total package, was one of the most underrated ever, because he doesn't even get a passing mention or a R.I.P. anymore. 

Those 4, along with Flair, Hogan, and Savage are my favorites, but Flair Hogan and Savage I can't really call underrated.  Under the right circumstances, I think these 4 could have been listed as legends alongside Flair Hogan and Savage.
